Styrenes fluoromethyl

Both methyltriethylphosphonium fluoride and methyltributylphospho-nium fluoride have been prepared The latter generates benzyl fluoride from benzyl chloride in 80% yield and ethyl fluoroacetate from ethyl bromoacetate in 53% yield Methyltnbutylphosphonium fluoride converts 1-bromododecane to a 50 50 mixture of 1-fluorododecane and 1-dodecene Methyltnbutylphosphonium fluoride also quantitatively forms styrene from 1-bromo-1-phenylethane [26] Methyl-tnbutylphosphonium fluonde is the reagent of choice for the conversion of N,N dimethylchloroacetamide to its fluoride, but it is not able to convert chloro-acetonitnle to fluoroacetomtrile Methyltnbutylphosphonium fluoride changes chloromethyl octyl ether to the crude fluoromethyl ether in 66% yield The stereoselectivity of methyltnbutylphosphonium fluoride is illustrated by the reac tions of the 2-tert-butyl-3-chlorooxiranes [27] (Table 2)... 

The resulting triblock polymer is an ABA structure of controlled segment molecular weights. Anion coupling has been employed in the preparation of block copolymers of styrene-chloromethyl styrene(23) and styrene-p-fluoromethyl styrene( L Styrene-perfluoroethylene oligomers have also been prepared by anion coupling( ) Other...
