PROCESSES FOR PRODUCING FLUORINATED ESTER, FLUORINATED ACYL FLUORIDE, AND FLUORINATED VINYL ETHER

摘要

A process for producing a fluorinated ester through a small number of steps. The process is characterized by comprising: a transesterification step in which R<AF>-COOCF2-R<AF> and R<A>-CH2OH are subjected to transesterification to thereby obtain R<AF>-COOCH2-R<A>; and a fluorination step in which the compound obtained is fluorinated in a liquid phase to obtain a reaction product containing R<AF>-COOCF2-R<AF>. In the formulae, R<A> is a monovalent organic group and R<AF> is the same group as R<A> or is a monovalent organic group obtained through fluorination of R<A>.
