Abstract

We have explored over the past few years the synthesis of structurally unusual perfluorinated organic compounds.'In such systems unusual steric and electronic effects are often observed as the last few protons are replaced with fluorine. In two previous studies electronic factors very significantly decreased the tendency of fluorine to react with the last few protons. The direct fluorination of adamantane yields 1- ...
