Abstract
Ammonolysis of chloropentafluorobenzene both in the presence and in the absence of copper(I) salt results mainly in replacement of the para- and ortho-fluorine atoms with respect to chlorine rather than replacement of the chlorine atom. Ammonolysis of 4-chloro-2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroaniline and 2-chloro-3,4,5,6-tetrafluoroaniline in the absence of copper(I) salt yields exclusively the corresponding fluorine substitution products, whereas in the presence of copper(I) salt the chlorine atom is replaced. Successive ammonolysis of chloropentafluorobenzene in the presence of copper catalyst along these two paths was put into the basis of a new method for preparation of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-1,4-phenylenediamine.
