Be among the first to study and use this highly reactive chlorofluorocarbon A glance at the double bond and unique combination of fluorine and chlorine in this new chemical tells you something of its potential. You catch a n o t h e r whisper of this potential in the few reactions shown above. Attack that bond, begin with these reactions, a n d you can develop a host of highly fluorinated compounds containing functional groups. For example, use simple oxidation. You can derive a variety of compounds including the acid halide, amide, esters, alcohols, a n d the anhydride.

T h e s e derivatives could be used in the development of polyester a n d polyamide resins, hydraulic fluids, elastomers, a n d wetting agents. You can develop still other compounds for applications as monomers, dielectrics, coolants, and refrigerants. W h e t your research appetite by writing on your l e t t e r h e a d for technical d a t a . 1,2-Dichlorohexafluorocyclopentene-1 is currently available in development quantities. Research samples are available a t a n o m i n a l price.
Chemical cousins to 1.2-Dichlorohexafluorocyclopentene-l are these three chlorofluorocarbons. Developed in the Hooker laboratories, they also show amazing potential as intermediates. 2,£"Dichlorohexafluorobutene-2 CF3-CCI =CC1-CF 3
Shows potential for plastics, refrigeration, textiles, paints, electronics. 2,2,3-Trichloroheptafluorobutane
CF3-CCI2-CFCI-CF3 Shows potential as a coolant, dielectric, refrigerant, and reactive intermediate 2,2,3,3-TetrachIorohexafluorobutane CF3-CCI2-CCI2-CF3
