Preparation of polyfluoroalkyl esters of fumaric and related acids
Abstract
Abstract a process for the preparation of ester compounds of the formula: WHEREIN M IS AN INTEGER OF 3 TO 18; N IS AN INTEGER OF 2 TO 10; AND R is an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon radical derived from fumaric, maleic, citraconic, mesaconic, or itaconic acid, which comprises reacting the compound CmF2m 1-CnH2nX wherein m and n are as defined above, and X is iodine, bromine or chlorine with a mono ammonium salt of fumaric, maleic, citraconic, mesaconic, or itaconic acid. In preferred embodiment, the monotriethylammonium fumarate is reacted with 1,1,2,2tetrahydroperfluoroalkyl iodide. Yields in excess of 50 percent are obtained. The esters prepared by the process of this invention form polymers which are useful in oil and waterrepellent textile finishes.
