Abstract

The action of aqueous ammonia on hexafluorobenzene in a steel autoclave at 180—220 °C yields a mixture of isomeric tetrafluorophenylenediamines and 2,4,5-trifluorophenylene-1,3-diamine. The content of the hydrodefluorination product significantly depends on the reaction temperature and time. Tetrafluorophenylene-1,3-diamine undergoes hydrodefluorination with aqueous ammonia in a steel autoclave at 200 °C to give 2,4,5-trifluorophenylene-1,3-diamine; when the additives of NH4F and/or FeCl3 are present, 2,5-difluorophenylene-1,3-diamine is additionally formed. The hydrodefluorination products are not formed during bis-aminodefluorination of hexafluorobenzene with aqueous ammonia in a glass reactor or with anhydrous ammonia (in a mixture with aprotic solvent) in a steel autoclave.
