Abstract: The invention relates to a new industrial process for manufacturing of perfluoropen-tane (PFP), and to the manufacture of a novel intermediate compound thereof, as well as to the novel intermediate compound itself and the use thereof in the process for manu-facturing of perfluoropentane (PFP). Accordingly, the invention relates to a process for the manufacture of the compound PFP (perfluoropentane), and/or of the compound perfluorinated 4-methylbutyrolactone, i.e., the precursor or intermediate compound of PFP (perfluoropentane), characterized in that the process comprises direct fluorination reaction with F2 gas as the fluorination agent, and/or from the fluorination reaction with SF4 as the fluorination agent.

Abstract: The invention relates to a new industrial process for manufacturing of perfluoro(methylvinylether) (PFMVE), and of 2-fluoro-1,2-dichloro-trifluoro-methoxyethylene (FCTFE), involving reactions in liquid phase and performing reactions in a microreactor. The invention also relates to a new industrial process for manufacturing of perfluoro(methyl vinyl ether) (PFMVE) by fluorination, i.e., perfluorination, of 2-fluoro-1,2-dichloro-trifluoromethoxy-ethylene (FCTFE) with HF (hydrogen fluoride) in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst, again performing the reaction in liquid phase, and preferably in a microreactor.
