Abstract
Fluorination of fatty alcohols with 1,1,2,3,3,3-hexafluoropropyl di-ethylamine (PPDA) was investigated. A mixture of lauryl fluoride (yield 45%) and lauryl 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropionate (yield 22%) was obtained from the reaction of PPDA and lauryl alcohol. Similar results were obtained from other fatty alcohols.
