The reactions of chlorine(I) and bromine(I) trifluoromethanesulfonates with a variety of perfluoroalkyl halides are reported.The reactions form Br2, Cl2, or BrCl and the corresponding trifluoromethanesulfonate derivatives of the alkyls in good yields.Twelve new esters are reported and characterized.An SEi-type mechanism for the reactions is proposed with complete retention of configuration by the alkyl on substitution.
