METHOD FOR PRODUCING 2-BROMO-2-FLUOROPROPIONIC ACID ESTER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing 2-bromo-2-fluoropropionic acid ester without causing a large amount of fluorine-containing waste liquid, suitable for production on an industrial scale. SOLUTION: 2-Fluoropropionic acid ester CH3CHFCOOR is reacted with carbon tetrabromide or bromine in the presence of a base to produce the objective 2-bromo-2-fluoropropionic acid ester CH3CFBrCOOR.
