PROCESS FOR FLUORINATION USING 1,1,2,2-TETRAFLUOROETHYL-N,N-DIMETHYLAMINE

摘要

A process for making a fluorinated product comprising contacting an alcohol with 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl-N,N-dimethylamine to produce a product mixture containing the fluorinated product and N,N-dimethyl difluoroacetamide, quenching the product mixture in water to form a first organic phase and an aqueous phase, recovering fluorinated product by separating the first organic phase from the aqueous phase, treating the aqueous phase to recover N,N-dimethyl difluoroacetamide, and converting recovered N,N-dimethyl difluoroacetamide to 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl-N,N-dimethylamine.
