Abstract

Abstract Compounds have a structure represented by Formula I: CF.sub.2 ═CF--X--R--(X--CF═CF.sub.2).sub.m wherein R represents an unsubstituted or inertly substituted hydrocarbyl group; each X is independently selected from the group consisting of groups having at least one non-carbon atom between R and --CF═CF 2 ; and m is an integer of from 1 to about 3. Polymers formed from such compounds are also prepared. The compounds are preferably prepared by a method by a process comprising the steps of: (a) forming a salt having anion corresponding to a compound of Formula II: HX--R--(XH.sub.m); wherein X, R and m are as defined for Formula I: (b) reacting the salt with a 1,2-dihalo-1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane wherein the halo groups are iodine, bromine, chlorine or mixtures thereof, at least one halo group being bromine or iodine, to form a compound of Formula III: Z--CF.sub.2 CF.sub.2 --X--R--(X--CF.sub.2 CF.sub.2 --Z).sub.m wherein X, R and m are as defined for Formula I and each Z is independently iodine or bromine; (c) eliminating the halogen atoms represented by Z to form the perfluorovinyl compound represented by Formula I.
