Abstract

The only reported attempts to prepare perfluorinated acyloins were unsuccessful. Ethyl trifluoroacetate reacted with an ethereal solution of metallic sodium to give ethyl y, y, y- trifluoroacetoacetate and polymeric material. 2, 3 Since ethyl butyrate is known to undergo the acyloin reaction with much greater facility than ethyl acetate, it was thought that perhaps esters containing the larger pertluoropropyl group might give an acyloin reaction.
