F Peroxides

intermediate peroxides are formed in the oxidation of perfluorinated alkenes, e.g. in the photo-oxidation of perfluoroethene and perfluoropropene for the formation of Fomblin (Ausimont Co.) perfluoro-polyether fluids [198, 199].

Aldehydes, both aliphatic and aromatic, can be decarbonylated454 by heating with chloro-tris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium455 or other catalysts such as palladium.456 RhCl(Ph3P)3 is often called Wilkinson s catalyst.457 In an older reaction aliphatic (but not aromatic) aldehydes are decarbonylated by heating with di-f-peroxide or other peroxides,458 usually in a solution...

In discussing mechanism (5.F) in the last chapter we noted that the entrapment of two reactive species in the same solvent cage may be considered a transition state in the reaction of these species. Reactions such as the thermal homolysis of peroxides and azo compounds result in the formation of two radicals already trapped together in a cage that promotes direct recombination, as with the 2-cyanopropyl radicals from 2,2 -azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN),... 

In Section 4.2.1 it will be pointed out that hydrogen peroxide (Figure 4.1 la) has only one symmetry element, a C2 axis, and is therefore a chiral molecule although the enantiomers have never been separated. The complex ion [Co(ethylenediamine)3], discussed in Section 4.2.4 and shown in Figure 4.11(f), is also chiral, having only a C3 axis and three C2 axes. 

Photooxidation of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and hexafluoropropylene (HEP) yield peroxides that can be decomposed to esters and ultimately long-chain ether-containing carboxyUc acids. Equation 6 shows a simplified version of what occurs during photooxidation and workup (TFE R = F,...

Polytetrafluoroethylene contains only C—C and C—F bonds. These are both very stable and the polymer is exceptionally inert. A number of other fluorine-containing polymers cU e available which may contain in addition C—H and C—Cl bonds. These are somewhat more reactive and those containing C—H bonds may be cross-linked by peroxides and certain diamines and di-isocyanates. 

Pressures varied from 20 to 1500 Ibf/in (0.14 to 10.5 MPa) and reaction times were of the order of 5-35 hours. Reaction promoters included peroxides and salts of persulphuric and perphosphoric acids. Activators , accelerators and buffering agents were also discussed in the patent. The process of manufacture of Kel-F is understood to be based on this patent.
