Abstract:
Perfluorocarbonyl compounds of the formulae IV and V ##STR1## in which R.sub.f denotes perfluoroalkyl, R'.sub.f denotes perfluoroalkylene, R denotes F, Cl, perfluoroalkyl or --OR"' (R"'=alkyl, aryl or aralkyl) and n denotes a number from 0 to 10, are prepared, starting from compounds of the formula I ##STR2## in which R.sub.f, R'.sub.f and n have the same meaning as in the formulae IV and V and R" is F, Cl or perfluoroalkyl, by electrolysis in an electrolyte consisting of fluorosulfonic acid/alkali metal fluorosulfonate and, if necessary, esterification with R"'OH, and decomposition ##STR3## in the presence of catalytic amounts of alkali metal fluorides and/or aprotic N-bases. Most of the compounds IV and V are new; the latter are, above all, valuable heat transfer fluids, lubricating oils or intermediates for the preparation of other F-organic compounds.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an environmentally friendly process for the preparation of compounds of the formula below ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are preferably H or alkyl, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are preferably alkyl or cycloalkyl, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are preferably hydrogen or methyl and R.sup.7 is in particular alkyl. In the process, the additional use of a phase transfer catalyst can be dispensed with without loss in yield.
Abstract:
A process is described for the selective mono-ortho-hydroxyalkylation of 4-substituted pyridine derivatives. In this case a nucleophilic hydroxyalkylation is carried out on the protonated pyridine derivative under the action of peroxodisulfate.
Abstract:
Process for preparing 3,5-difluoroaniline, wherein(1) 2,4,5-trichloronitrobenzene is reacted with an alkali metal fluoride in the presence or absence of a polar aprotic solvent at temperatures of about 100.degree. C. to about 250.degree. C., and, after filtering off precipitated salts and fractional distillation of the crude solution,(2) the resulting 5-chloro-2,4-difluoronitrobenzene is chlorinated with denitration to give 1,3-dichloro-4,6-difluorobenzene in the absence of a Lewis acid or of another chlorination catalyst, using anhydrous chlorine gas at temperatures of about 80.degree. to about 250.degree. C., and(3) this compound is nitrated to give 2,6-dichloro-3,5-difluoronitrobenzene in oleum with mixed acid (sulfuric acid/nitric acid) at temperatures of about 15.degree. to about 80.degree. C., and(4) this compound is reduced with hydrogen in the presence of palladium as catalyst and in the presence of an inorganic or organic base at temperatures of about 40.degree. to about 250.degree. C.
Abstract:
Moldings having a thickness of 1 to 60 mm and made of flexible webs or rigid sheet of plastic are passed through a corona discharge treatment system consisting of high-voltage electrodes and a counter-electrode and a high-frequency alternating current voltage of 20 to 25 kHz and 20 to 70 kV is applied to the high-voltage electrodes by a generator. A corona discharge forms in the gap between the high-voltage electrodes and the counter-electrode. An aerosol formed by atomizing a liquid is blown into the corona discharge zone by means of an air or gas stream. The aerosol modifies the surface of the sheet-like molding in the desired manner.
