M. Matsui et al., PERFLUOROALKYLQUINONES - SYNTHESIS USING BIS(PERFLUOROALKANOYL) PEROXIDES, ABSORPTION-BANDS, AND SOLUBILITY, Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, 68(3), 1995, pp. 1042-1051
The reactions of 1,4-benzo-, naphtho-, and 9,10-anthraquinones with bi
s(perfluoroalkanoyl) peroxides gave the corresponding perfluoroalkylat
ed derivatives. Those of 2-methyl- and 2-[4-(chloroanilino)]-1,4-napht
hoquinones with bis(oxaperfluoroalkanoyl) peroxides afforded the dichl
oromethyl and trifluoromethyl derivatives, respectively. Absorption ba
nds of the perfluoroalkylated naphtho- and anthraquinone dyes showed a
slight hypsochromic shift. The solubilities of the perfluoroalkylated
anthraquinone dyes into hexane were much more higher than those of th
e non-perfluoroalkylated ones.
