Abstract
Deoxyfluorocellulose acetates were prepared from cellulose acetate (CA, degree of substitution by acetyl groups: 2.2 and 1.7) by using diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST) in 1,4-dioxane or diglyme. The maximum degree of substitution of fluorine of the products was ∼ 0.60, and depolymerization was not significant during fluorination. The replacement of hydroxyl groups by fluorine atoms occurred exclusively at C-6, as confirmed by carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy. In the presence of pyridine, an N-pyridinium derivative of CA was obtained instead of a deoxyfluoro derivative of cellulose.
