Abstract: A process is disclosed for reducing the mole ratio of (1) compounds of the formula Y1Y2C?CF2 wherein Y1 and Y2 are each independently H, F, Cl, Br, C1-C6 alkyl or C1-C6 haloalkyl containing no more than 3 chlorine substituents, 2 bromine substituents and 1 iodo substituent to (2) saturated compounds of the formula CdHeFfClgBrhIk wherein d is an integer from 1 to 10, and e+f+g+h+k is equal to 2d+2, provided that g is 0, 1, 2 or 3, h is 0, 1 or 2 and k is 0 or 1 and/or unsaturated compounds of the formula Y3Y4C?CY5Y6, wherein Y3, Y5 and Y6 are each independently H, F, Cl, Br, C1-C6 alkyl or C1-C6 haloalkyl containing no more than 3 chlorine substituents, 2 bromine substituents and 1 iodo substituent, provided that Y5 and Y6 are not both F, and Y4 is C1-C6 alkyl or C1-C6 haloalkyl containing no more than 3 chlorine substituents, 2 bromine substituents and 1 iodo substituent, in a mixture.

Abstract: Hexafluoroisobutylene and its higher homologs are easily reacted with SO3 to give fluorosulfates of the formula CH2?C(R)CF2OSO2F, wherein R is a linear branched or cyclic fluoroalkyl group comprised of 1 to 10 carbon atoms and may contain ether oxygen. These compounds react under mild conditions with many nucleophiles to give CH2?C(R)CF2X, where X is derived from the nucleophile. This reaction provides a route to many substituted hexafluoroisobutylenes, which copolymerize easily with other fluoro- and hydrocarbon monomers such as vinylidene fluoride and ethylene.
