Abstract
Abstract Thermolysis of hexafluorocyclopropane in the presence of ethylene, propene, vinyl chloride, and vinyl bromide gives good yields of the corresponding 1,1-difluorocyclopropanes, formed by addition of difluorocarbene to the olefin. The tetrafluoroethylene formed dimerises to octafluorocyclobutane, co-dimerises with the olefin, or survives, depending on the reaction conditions. With allene, hexafluorocyclopropane gives 1-(difluoromethylene)cyclopropane, 2,2,3,3-tetrafluorospiropentane, and products derived from tetrafluoroethylene and allene.
