DIRECT ONE-STEP SYNTHESIS OF TRIFLUOROMETHYL IODIDE

摘要

A catalytic one-step process for the production of CF3I by reacting, in the presence of a source of oxygen, a source of iodine a reactant of the formula: CF3R, where R is -COOH, -COX, -CHO, -OOOR2 and -SO2X, where R is an alkyl group and X is selected from chlorine, bromine and iodine. The catalyst may be a metal salt such as salts of Cu, Hg, Pt, Pd, Co, Mn, Rh, Ni, V, TI, Ba, Cs, Ca, K and Ge and mixtures thereof, preferably on a support, such as MgO, BaO and CaO, BaCO3, CaNO3, Ba (NO3) 2, activated carbon, basic alumina, and ZrO2.
