1-(1H,1H-perfluorooctyl)-1,3-trimethylenediphosphonic tetrachloride

Abstract

Perfluoroalkyl iodide monomer and telomer ester adducts of diethyl vinylphosphonate were prepared by free radical addition. Iodine of these adducts was replaced by hydrogen, and derivatives of the reduced phosphonate adducts were prepared, which include phosphonic acids, acid chlorides, and aziridinyl phosphine oxides. The aziridinyl phosphine oxides are used to impart oil and water repellency to cellulosic textiles. The other derivatives are useful as chemical intermediates as well as potential foaming agents.
