SYNTHESIS OF SEMI-INORGANIC FLUORINE POLYMERS. Quarterly Progress Report No. 6 for December 1, 1959 through February 29, 1960

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4175567

Further studies of the mechanism of the deammoniation of perfluoroalkylamidines to form tris perfluoroalkylsym-triazines have been carried out. The first step in this mechanism, the bimolecular elimination of one mole of ammonia to give the perfluoroalkyl imidine, has been previously described; the present work shows that the second step involves a partial decomposition of the imidine to perfluoroalkyl nitrile. Successive steps and equilibria involved are proposed. Cotrimerization of perfluoroalkyl nitriles and benzonitrile has been shown to occur and 2,4 bis(trifluoromethyl)-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazine has been isolated and identified.
