Abstract

The reactivity of perfluorohexyl iodide with N, N-disubstituted amides or ethyl formate as solvents and reactants, in the presence of a zinc-copper metal couple and radical initiator, has been investigated. In each case, the corresponding perfluorinated carbonyl compounds, such as aldehydes, amides, ketones and esters, were obtained in good yield, thus proving the efficacy of this reaction. The influence of the radical initiator on the reaction mechanisms has been studied and is discussed.
