Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to a process to produce compounds represented by the general formula Y--(CFR.sub.f).sub.a --(CFR.sub.f ').sub.b --O--CF═CF.sub.2 by decarboxylation of compounds represented by the general formula ##STR1## where a=0-3; b=0-3; provided a+b=2 or 3; Y═an acid derivative; X═Cl, I, or Br; M═OR, F, Cl, Br, I, OA; A═alkali metal, alkali earth metal, a quaternary nitrogen and hydrogen; R f ' and R f are independently selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, perfluoroalkyls and fluorochloroalkyls R═an alkyl having one or more carbon atoms or an aryl.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 122 words
A method of preparing compounds represented by the general formula: Y(CFR.sub.f).sub.a --(CFR'.sub.f).sub.b --O--CF═CF.sub.2 which comprises decarboxylating ##STR34## in the presence of an activator when M═OR, F, Cl, Br or I and at a temperature of from about 50° C. to about 600° C. for a time sufficient for said decarboxylation to occur where: ##STR35## R f ' and R f are independently selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, perfluoroalkyl radicals and fluorochloroalkyl radicals; Z=OR, F, Cl, Br or I; a=0-3; b=0-3; a+b=2 or 3; M=OR, F, Cl, Br, I or OA; A is selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkali earth metals, quaternary nitrogen and hydrogen; and R=an alkyl containing one or more carbon atoms or an aryl.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 122 words
A method of preparing compounds represented by the general formula: Y(CFR.sub.f).sub.a --(CFR'.sub.f).sub.b --O--CF═CF.sub.2 which comprises decarboxylating ##STR34## in the presence of an activator when M═OR, F, Cl, Br or I and at a temperature of from about 50° C. to about 600° C. for a time sufficient for said decarboxylation to occur where: ##STR35## R f ' and R f are independently selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, perfluoroalkyl radicals and fluorochloroalkyl radicals; Z=OR, F, Cl, Br or I; a=0-3; b=0-3; a+b=2 or 3; M=OR, F, Cl, Br, I or OA; A is selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkali earth metals, quaternary nitrogen and hydrogen; and R=an alkyl containing one or more carbon atoms or an aryl.
