Abstract The present invention relates to aryl perfluoro-alkyl ethers that are compounds of the general formula: ##STR1## where R F ═ CF 3 or CF 2 OCF 3 , X═ Br; R f ═ cf 2 ocf 3 , x ═ no 2 . and also to a method of producing them. The method according to the present invention consists in fluorinating aryl esters of perfluorocarboxylic acids of the general formula ##STR2## where R F and X are as defined above, with sulphur tetrafluoride in autoclaves at a temperature of 20°-100° C in hydrogen fluoride solution with the concentration of the starting esters in hydrogen fluoride being 20-50%. Aryl perfluoroalkyl ethers can be used as intermediate products for producing medicinal preparations, heat-, cold-, benzene, and oil-resistant sealing compounds, as well as compounds and polymers applied in various fields of engineering. The above-described method allows obtaining the desired products under mild conditions with a high yield (80% of theory).
Aryl perfluoro-alkyl ethers of the formula ##STR5## where R F ═ CF 3 or CF 2 OCF 3 , X ═ Br; R f ═ cf 2 ocf 3 , x ═ no 2
