<i>F</i>-Propene-Dialkylamine Reaction Products as Fluorinating Agents

Abstract

Abstract The reaction products of F-propene and dialkylamines, mixtures of α,α-difluoroalkylamine and α-fluoro enamine, were found to be useful fluorinating agents for alcohols and carboxylic acids. These reagents were superior to the adduct of chlorotrifluoroethene and diethylamine, the so-called Yarovenko reagent, for their readier preparation and higher stability.
