Abstract:

Crosslinking investigations of perfluorinated systems via fluorine abstraction and functional epoxide approach are reported. To promote fluorine abstraction metalloid compounds, triphenylphosphine, tetraphenyldiphosphine, and related materials as well as zirconium sponge were studied. Fluorine abstraction was observed, but no coupling appeared to take place.
