Defluorination of Perfluoroalkanes and Chlorofluorocarbons
Abstract
Electron transfer from a reducing agent to a fluorocarbon leads to cleavage of the strong and supposedly inert CF bond. This process can be used to defluorinate perfluoroalkanes to produce perfluoroarenes or ‐alkenes catalytically under mild conditions. The transfer of two electrons from alkali metal oxalates to chlorofluoro‐carbons leads to complete degradation at relatively low temperatures [Eq. (a)]. equation image

In the citing paper
“Perfluoroalkanes are generally less reactive, but are not completely inert and are capable of undergoing reductive defluorination (Saunders, 1996).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
