Fluoropolymer sorbent for efficient and selective capturing of per- and polyfluorinated compounds.

Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have gained widespread attention due to their adverse effects on health and environment. Developing efficient technology to capture PFAS from contaminated sources remains a great challenge. In this study, we introduce a type of reusable polymeric sorbent (PFPE-IEX + ) for rapid, efficient, and selective removal of multiple PFAS impurities from various contaminated water sources.

(,)-1,1,1,4,4,4-Hexafluorobut-2-enes: hydrofluoroolefins halogenation/dehydrohalogenation cascade to reach new fluorinated allene.

A series of 2,3-dihalo-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobutanes and 2-halo-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobut-2-enes were prepared from commercially available hydrofluoroolefins 1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobut-2-enes and their H, F and C chemical shifts measured. Some reactions of synthesized 2-halo-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobut-2-enes have been investigated. A simple, one-pot procedure for the preparation of a new allene (1,1,4,4,4-pentafluorobuta-1,2-diene) and some of its transformations is presented.
