Abstract

The reactions of the natural lichen metabolite, (+)-usnic acid, with a series of commercially available polyfluoroolefins (tetrafluoroethylene, chlorotrifluoroethylene, hexafluoropropene, perfluoro-2-methylpent-2-ene, and 1,2-dichlorooctafluorocyclohex-1-ene) afford its 7-O-polyfluoroalkyl and perfluorovinyl ethers.
