What is it about?
Fluoroalkylation of aliphatic diols, tetrahydrofuran and 1,3-dioxolanes with perfluoroolefins under photochemical initiation was studied. The aim of the study was the preparation of fluoroalkylated diols as intermediates for special fluorinated monomers. Fluoroalkylation was only partly successful in the case of 1,4-butanediol and quite successful with tetrahydrofuran and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane. The fluoroalkyl diols obtained were converted to monomethacrylates that are amphiphilic monomers.
