, p. 7 - 10 (2017/08/04)
A new route to commercially important perfluoroalkyl ethyl alcohols (RfCH2CH2OH) is described. This route involves the addition of perfluoroalkyl iodides to alkyl vinyl ethers using sulfinatodehalogenation chemistry, followed by catalytic hydrogenation of the intermediate mixture of perfluoroalkylacetaldehyde and perfluoroalkylacetaldehyde hemiacetal to the desired alcohol.
