_escription PROCESS FOR PREPARING FLUOROALIPHATIC ETHER-COMTAINING

This invention relates to a process for preparing fluoroaliphatic ether-containiny carbonyl fluoride compositions.

catalysts serve to promote the formation of the perfluorinated alkoxide ion which is the species which undergoes reaction with the hexafluoropropylene oxide. It 5 has also been reported [Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR, Ser. Khim.
1891 (1983)] that the potassium halide salts potassium fluoride, potassium chloride, potassium bromide, and potassium iodide catalyze the oligomeri~ation of hexafluoropropylene oxide, the use of the potassium 10 fluoride resulting in the formation of hexafluoropropylene oxide oligomers up to the hexamer and the use of the potassium iodide resulting in the formation of mainly dimer and trimer.
This invention provides a process for preparing 15 fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride ~ comprising reacting hexafluoropropylene oxide, ~0\
CF3 - CF - CF2, with a fluorinated carbonyl compound selected from fluorinated ketone and fluorinated acyl 20 fluorides in the presence of at least one catalyst selected from potassium iodide, potassium bromide, cesium iodide, cesium bromide, rubidium iodide, and rubidium bromide.
Suitable reactive fluorinated carbonyl compounds useful in the process of the invention include those which 25 can be represented by the general formula Rl-C~R2 where Rl and R2 are independently: F; fluoroalkyl groups, 30 Rf, which are substantially perfluorinated and can be linear or branched, and which can contain H, Cl or Br atoms and can contain catenary oxygen and/or trivalent nitrogen hetero atoms bonded only to carbon atoms of the skeletal chain, such hetero atoms providing stable ~inkages between fluorocarbon portions of the chain; fluorosulfonyl substituted perfluoroalkyl groups; fluorocarbonyl groups;
fluorocarbonyl substituted perfluoroalkyl groups;
alkoxycarbonyl substituted perfluoroalkyl groups; or R1 and ~ . .

~63.~.~5 R2 together with the -C- group can form a 4- to 7- membered ring; each of R1 and R2 having no more than 20 carbon 5 atoms.
A subclass of the fluorinated carbonyl compounds useful in the process of this invention can be represented by the formula 1 0 1l FCRf 'X II

where X is H, F, Cl, Br, ROC- where R is a lower alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, FSO2-, or FC-; and R~' is a perfluoroalkylene group, having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, which is substantially perfluorinated and can be linear or branched, and which can contain one or more H, Cl or Br 20 ato~s, and can contain catenary oxygen and/or trivalent nitrogen hetero atoms bonded only to carbon atoms of the skeletal chain, such hetero atoms providing stable linkages between fluorocarbon portions of the chain.
Fluorinated carbonyl compounds which can be used 25 in the process of the invention include COF2, FCOCOF, CF3COF, C2FsCOF, n-C3F~COF, i-C3F7COF, C2F50CF2COF, . C3F70C(CF3)FCOF, C3F70[C(CF3 )FCF20]3C(CF3 )FCOF, C2FsOCF2CF20CF2COF, H(CF2) 6 COF, BrCF2COF, ClCF2COF, FS02 ( CF2 ) 3 COF, CF3COCF3, HCF2COCF2H, FOCCF2cF2coF~

The process of this invention is preferably carried out in a polar organic solvent. Suitable solvents 25 include aliphatic ethers such as diglyme, triglyme, and tetraglyme, with diglyme (diethylene glycol dimethyl ether) being generally more preferred, although the higher boiling point solvents, e.g., tetraglyme, are more preferred where recovery of low boiling point fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride compounds from the reaction product is required. Other solvents such as acetone or acetonitrile may also be employed. Reaction temperatures can vary widely, e.g., from about -80 to 100C, preferably -30 to 60C. Reaction time is generally from several minutes to about 50 hours depending on the scale of the reaction, with larger scale reactions requiring longer times. The reaction is generally carried out at atmospheric pressure, although higher pressure can : ~

be used, and re~uires no special equipment. To perform the reaction, the solvent and the fluorinated carbonyl compounds are charged to the reaction vessel and the 5 catalyst is then added followed by addition of the hexafluoropropylene oxide, or the solvent and catalyst are charged to the reaction vessel and the fluorinated carbonyl compound is added and then the hexafluoropropylene oxide is added. Generally, processes for producing carbonyl 10 fluoride compositions must be carried out under scrupulously anhydrous conditions, i.e., less than 100 ppm water, to prevent hydrolysis of the transitory intermediate perfluoroalkoxide, RfCF2OCFCF2O-M+ which would result in 15 the formation of RfCF2OCFCOOH. Surprisingly, the process of the present invention need only be carried out under substantially anhydrous conditions, i.e., less than 2000 ppm, more preferably less than 1000 ppm water.
The preferred catalysts are potassium iodide and potassium bromide. Potassium chloride alone does not catalyze the reaction, although it will give a small yield of the desired products when a crown ether such as 18-crown-6 is employed as a co-catalyst.
The fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride compositions resulting from the reaction can be recovered from the reaction product mixture by phase separation followed by distillation.
The yields of the fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyI fluoride composition from the reaction employing the catalysts of this invention are high, e.g., generally 50% or more based on the fluorinated carbonyl compound when the catalyst is potassium iodide or bromide, such yields frequently superior to those obtained with more commonly utilized catalysts such as cesium fluoride. The composition of the recovered fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride composition is substantially the same as that obtained by using cesium .. ~ '.

3~;5 fluoride as the catalyst, although when potassium bromide is used as the catalyst there is a small amount of bromine--containing material in the final product.
In admixture with the fluoroaliphatic monoether compounds (Scheme 1, where p is 1), there are fluoroaliphatic polyether compounds which are formed by the addition of more units of hexafluoropropylene oxide, e.g., where p is 2 to 10 or higher. Under the appropriate 10 conditions, e.g. when a higher molar ratio of hexafluoropropylene oxide to fluorinated carbonyl reactant is used, the polyether materials may become the major products.
The concentration of the catalyst used is, 15 functionally stated, a catalytic amount, and this amount can be empirically determined. Generally that amount need not exceed about 12 mole percent based on the fluorinated carbonyl compound when potassium iodide is the catalyst.
With potassium bromide, it is occasionally necessary to use 20 somewhat larger amounts of catalyst ranging up to 100 mole percent based on the fluorinated carbonyl compound. The use of higher amounts of catalyst than that determined empirically is not detrimental to the reaction but offers no particular advantages.
The fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluorides produced by the process of this invention are useful intermediates for the preparation of many derivatives, e.g., carboxylic acids and their salts, esters, amides, alcohols, acrylates, vinyl ethers, 30 polymers, etc., as described in U.S. Patents No. 3,250,808 (Moore et al.) and No. 3,699,156 (Holland et al.). These derivatives have utility for various applications, such as surfactants, lubricants, heat transfer and cooling fluids, hydraulic fluids and vapor phase heating.

properties which were fully consistent with their structure and agreed with the data from products prepared by an alternate route. Gas chromatographic (GC) analysis of the 5 reaction products, after conversion to the methyl esters, using a 3 meter OV101 column, gave baseline separation of the starting materials and the fluoroaliphatic ether products. Infrared (IR) spectral analysis of the products showed the characteristic carbonyl fluoride s~retch at 5.22 10 microns. Fluorine nuclear magnetic resonance ( F NMR) analysis was occasionally complicated by the presence of isomers and non-carbonyl-containing impurities present in the original starting acid fluorides, as well as some overlap in the 75-85 ppm range, but showed the 15 characteristic -COF fluorine at ~26 ppm downfield from the internal CFCl3 standard. Mass spectral (MS) analysis was also carried out in some cases. Additional confirmation of the aliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride products was obtained by conversion to the corresponding 20 perfluorinated vinyl ether using standard procedures as described in U.S. Patent No. 3,250,808 (Moore et al.) Yields were based on GC area percentages corrected for non-hexafluoropropylene oxide derived materials.

Example 1 Potassium iodide (3.07 g, 0.018 mole) which had been vacuum dried was added to diglyme ~42 g, distilled from scdium benzophenone ketyl) contained in a 250 ml, 3-necked, round bottom flask equipped with a Dry 3Q IceTM-acetone condenser, an overhead stirrer, and a gas inlet, and cooled to -20C. Tetrafluorosuccinyl fluoride, FCOCF2 CF2 COF ( 40 g of 75% purity, 0.15 mole), was added and the mixture stirred for 45 minutes. Hexafluoropropylene oxide (50 g of 80% purity, 0.30 mole) was added over 45 minutes. The reaction mixture was separated. The lower - fluorochemical phase contained: 35% FOC(CF2)30CF(CF3 )COF
and 49% FOCCF(CF3 )O(CF2 )40CF(CF3 )COF, a yield of 95% based on tetrafluorosuccinyl fluoride. The remainder (16%) of ~ ~¢3~ rilrj the fluorochemical phase was starting material and a small amount of hexafluoropropylene oxlde oligomers.

Trifluoroacetyl fluoride, CF3COF (10 g, 0.086 mole), was added as a gas over a period of about 10 minutes with 10 stirring and the mixture was further stirred for 20 minutes. Hexafluoropropylene oxide (17.9 g of 80% purity, 0.086 mole) was added and the mixture stirred until reflux from the Dry Ice condenser had ceased. rrhe fluorochemical product layer was separated and reacted with methanol-BF3 15 at 0-5C for 10 minutes to convert the volatile acyl fluorides to the corresponding methyl ester. The product contained about 100% fluoroaliphatic ether-containing methyl ester compounds, C2FsO~CF(CF3)CF2O]XCF(CF3)CO2CH3, with the product distribution being x=0 (49%), x-1 (45%) 20 and x=2 (6%). Yield of the product was 56% based on CF3COF. Trace amounts of hexafluoropropylene oxide oligomers were also formed.

Heptafluorobutyryl fluoride, C3F7COF (70.9 g of 43% purity, 0.14 mole) was added and the mixture stirred.
Hexafluoropropylene oxide (58.5 g of 80% purity, 0.28 mole) was added over 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to about 25C over a five-hour period and the resulting product was found to contain 91%
fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride compounds, C4 FgO[CF(CF3)CF2O]XCF(CF3)COF, with the product distribution being x=0 (23%), x=1 (54%) and x-2 (23%), in a nearly quantitative yield based on C3F7COF. Nine percent of the fluorochemical product was hexafluoropropylene oxide oligomers.

Example 4 ~sing the procedure of Example 1, potassium 5 iodide (2.55 g, 0.015 mole), diglyme (80 g) and perfluoro(diethylaminopropionyl) fluoride, (C2F5)2NCF2CF2COF, (100 g of 51% purity, 0.129 mole) were combined and stirred at 0C for 45 minutes.
Hexafluoropropylene oxide (28 g of 80% purity, 0.135 mole) 10 was added and the mixture stirred for 4 hours and then slowly allowed to warm to about 25C over a 2-hour period.
The resulting two-phase reaction mixture was separated and the lower fluorochemical phase analyzed and found to contain 59% fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl-15 fluoride compounds,(C2F5)2N(CF2)30[CF(CF3)CF2O]xCF(CF3)COF, with the product distribution being x~0 (80%) and x~1 (20~), in a yield of 76% based on starting acyl fluoride. The remainder of the fluorochemical product was starting material and 20 hexafluoropropylene oxide oligomers.

Example 5 Potassium iodide (1.2 g, 0.007 mole) and diglyme (50 g) were combined as in Example 1 and cooled to -20C.
25 An extra condenser was placed on top of the first Dry Ice condenser and both were filled with Dry Ice-diethyl ether.
Carbonyl fluoride, COF2 (5.0 g, 0.076 mole) was added as a gas. Hexafluoropropylene oxide (25.1 g, 0.15 mole) was added over a fifteen minute period. The resulting mixture 30 was stirred for two hours and the lower fluorochemical phase was then separated. For ease of analysis due to the volatility of the acyl fluoride, the product was converted to the methyl ester as in Example 2. GC-MS an~ 19 F NMR
analysis of the reaction mixture showed the expected 35 fluoroaliphatic ether-containing methyl ester compounds, 3 [CFtCF3)CF2O]xCF(CF3)co2cH3~where x was 1 to 5, and an equal amount of hexa~luoropropylene oxide oligomers.

Hexafluoropropylene oxide ~20.0 y of 80% purity, 0.096 mole) was added over a period of 20 minutes and the resulting mixture stirred for two hours while slowly 10 warming to about 25C. The lower fluorochemical phase was separated to give 21.7 g of a mixture of fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride compounds, (CF3)2CFO[CF(CF3)CF2O]xCF(CF3)COF,where x=0 to 3 and hexafluoropropylene oxide oligomers in a 4:1 mole ratio.

Example 7 Diglyme (92.5 kg) (Ansul E-141, Ansul Co.; water content 640 ppm) was charged into a 189 L refrigerated stainless steel reactor followed by the addition of 20 potassium iodide (3.9 kg, 23.5 mole) (Mallinckrodt). The batch was cooled to -12C and C3 F~COF (77 kg of 51% purity, 181 mole) was added rapidly. The mixture was agitated for two hours at -12C. Hexafluoropropylene oxide (77 kg, 464.9 mole) was subse~uently added such that the 25 temperature of the reaction did not exceed -12C. After the addition of the hexafluoropropylene oxide was complete, the reactor was held for one hour at -18 to -12C. The batch was then heated for 1 hour to 52C to remove the lower boiling impurities. After cooling to 21C over a 2 hour period, the bottom fluorochemical phase was separated to give 118 kg (80%) fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride compounds, C4FgO[CF(CF3)CF2O]xCF(CF3)COF,with the product distribution being x=0 (20%), x-1 (65%) and x=2 (15%), and 20% hexafluoropropylene oxide oligomers, C3F7o[cF(cF3)cF2o]xcF(cF3)coF~with the product distribution being x=0 (40%), x=1 (50%) and x=2 (10%).

carbonyl fluoride compounds based on C3 F7COF was 90% and based on hexafluoropropylene oxide was 82%.

Example 8 Potassium iodide (7.1g, 0.043 mole) and diglyme (94g) were combined as in Example 1. 4-(Fluorosulfonyl)-hexafluorobutyryl fluoride, FO25(CF2)3COF, (173g of 58%
purity, 0.358 mole) was added at 25C and the contents 10 stirred for 30 minutes and -then cooled to 0C.
Hexafluoropropylene oxide (151g, 0.910 mole) was added over four hours with the bulk (120g) added within the first hour. After the reaction was complete, the phases were ~eparated and the lower fluorochemical phase (290g) was 15 analyzed and found to contain 64~ fluoroaliphatic ether-containing carbonyl fluoride compounds, FO2S(CF2)4O~CF(CF3)CF2O]XCF(CF3)CoF~ with the product distribution being x=0 (17%), x=1 (72%) and x=2 (11%), in a yield of 89% based on starting acid fluoride.
