PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF FLUOROMETHYL HEXAFLUOROISOPROPYL ETHER

摘要

A process for the production of fluoromethylhewafluoroisopropylether which involves contacting bis (fluoromethyl) ether with hexafluoroisopropyl alcohol in which the molar ratio of the ether to the alcohol isin excess of 2:1 so the ether and alcohol react to produce fluoromethylhexafluoroisopropyl ether and recovering the ether. The process is suitable carried out in acidic conditions.
