POLYFLUOROALKYLATION AND POLYFLUOROALKOXYLATION OF PERFLUORO-(5,6-DIHYDRO-2H-1,4-OXAZINE) IN THE PRESENCE OF FLUORIDE ANION

Polyfluorinated tertiary amines were synthesized by the reactions of p rimary alkyl triflates (RFCH2OSO2CF3, R-F = CF3, C2F5, CHF2) with the morpholide anion, preformed from perfluoro(5,6-dihydro-2H-1,4-oxazine) on treatment with potassium fluoride (in tetraglyme). In the case of (CF3)(2)CHOSO2CF3, polyfluoroalkoxylated oxazine was obtained by repla cement of the imidoyl fluorine. A similar imidoyl fluorine substitutio n reaction occurred in the treatment of perfluoro(5,6-dihydro-2H-1,4-o xazine) with polyfluoroalkylsiloxanes regardless of alkyl group variat ion.
