3-chloropentafluoropropene-1,2-oxide: Preparation and reactions with some heteroatom nucleophiles and antimony pentafluoride

Abstract Nucleophilic epoxidation of 3-chloropentafluoro-1-propene at PTC conditions afforded 3-chloropentafluoropropene-1,2-oxide, which was reacted with some oxygen and nitrogen nucleophiles to 3-chloro-3,3-difluoropropionic acid derivatives. With antimony pentafluoride, mixture of fluorinated acetones was obtained.
