Abstract

Abstract Chlorination and bromination of CH 3 OCH 2 CF 2 CFHCF 3 gave contrasting results for the site of halogenation and a rationalisation based on the lateness of the transition-state is advanced. Direct fluorination supports the theory. Chlorination of fluorinated trialkylborates provides a new route for conversion of fluorinated alkenes to fluorinated acid chlorides.
