Abstract
Abstract A new class of fluorotelomers was synthesized via the cotelomerization of ethylene and tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) with 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluoroalkyl iodides. The telomerization led to ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) cotelomer iodides with the incorporation of ethylene and TFE in the cotelomer chain in an alternating fashion. By controlling the reaction parameters such as total pressure, temperature, feed ratio of the monomers, initiator feed, and conversion rate, eight-carbon cotelomer iodide or higher cotelomers could be produced preferably. The ETFE cotelomer iodides were transformed to a variety of intermediates such as alcohols, azides, amines and thiols, precursors useful to make surface modification agents.
