Nitrogen-containing perfluoroalkanoyl peroxide and method for production thereof

Abstract

A nitrogen-containing perfluoroalkanoyl peroxide is provided which is represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein Rf.sub.1 and Rf.sub.2 independently stand for an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, provided that Rf.sub.1 and Rf.sub.2 are joined to each other in one of the three patterns of union, 1) direct union, 2) union through the medium of an oxygen atom or 3) union through the medium of a nitrogen atom to form one of the three rings, i.e. five-membered ring, six-membered ring or seven-membered ring. The nitrogen-containing perfluoroalkanoyl peroxide is produced by a method which comprises oxidizing a compound represented by the following formula: ##STR2##
