Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the titled compound useful as a monomer for the production of synthetic resins and synthetic rubbers, etc., economically, effectively utilizing octafluoroisobutene, etc., by reacting heptafluoroisobutenyl alkyl ether with oxygen under light irradiation. CONSTITUTION:Hydrated hexafluoroacetone of formula II can be produced by reacting heptafluoroisobutenyl alkyl ether of formula I (R is alkyl) with oxygen under radiation of light, preferably in the presence of water. The raw material can be produced by adding a lower alcohol to octafluoroisobutene produced as a by-product in the production of hexafluoropropene and dehydrofluorinating the resultant octafluoroisobutyl alkyl ether with a base such as an alkali metal hydroxide in the presence of a phase-transfer catalyst such as a quaternary ammonium salt. Accordingly, the process enables the effective utilization of the above by-product.

(1) The oxidation reaction with potassium permanganate is violent, and the by-product manganese dioxide becomes industrial waste that cannot be easily disposed of. (2) The oxide synthesized from hexafluoropropene has high purity. (3) In the nitric acid oxidation of dichetane, the resulting hexafluoroacetone hydrate contains 1702 and S02, (4) The use of hexachloroacetone is not efficient as chlorine only increases the weight of the synthesis, and it also requires toxic antimony pentachloride, which further increases the purity of the product. Difficulty in obtaining a product [Problem to be solved by the invention] The present inventors have developed an octave product which is completely different from the conventional techniques that have such drawbacks, and whose effective use is strongly desired. By using fluoroisobutyne or its alcohol adduct as a raw material and oxidizing it, we succeeded in obtaining the desired hexafluoroacetone.
