The present invention relates to a method for producing a compound having a fluorosulfonyl group by coupling reaction.
A fluorinated compound having a fluorosulfonyl group (hereinafter sometimes referred to simply as —SO2F) is useful as a functional material such as a surfactant or a monomer. In a method for producing a fluorinated compound having —SO2F, a cyclic compound such as perfluoroethane sultone obtained by reacting a fluorinated olefin such as tetrafluoroethylene with SO3 is used in some cases.
For example, FSO2CF2CF2OCF═CF2 which is a monomer for a fluorosulfonic acid polymer for an ion exchange membrane is produced by using FSO2CF2CF2OCF(CF3)COF obtained by reacting perfluoroethane sultone with hexafluoropropylene oxide.
Further, a method has been reported of subjecting FSO2CF2CF2OCF(CF3) COOH and CF3CF2CF2COOH to heterocoupling by electrolytic coupling reaction to obtain FSO2CF2CF2OCF(CF3) CF2CF2CF3 (Non-Patent Document 1).

A fluorinated carboxylic acid having —SO2F disclosed in the above document is only a compound having —SO2F at the δ-position of the carboxyl group such as FSO2CF2CF2OCF(CF3)COOH.

Further, formation of (F(CF2)4OCF(CF3))2 (27.7 mmoL) and FSO2CF2CF2SO2F (0.52 mmoL) was confirmed. Further, presence of 6.26 mmoL of compound 21 and 7.71 mmoL of compound 11 was confirmed. Further, the upper layer liquid in the vial after completion of the electric current application was analyzed by 19F-NMR (internal standard: CF3CH2OH, solvent: D2O) and as a result, presence of 31.2 mmoL of compound 11 and 0.36 mmoL of compound 21 was confirmed.
The desired product CF3CF2CF2SO2F is obtained by electrolytic coupling reaction in the same manner as in Example 2 except that 5 mmol of CF3CF2COOH is used instead of compound 21 in Example 2.
The desired product CF2ClCFClCF2SO2F is obtained by electrolytic coupling reaction in the same manner as in Example 2 except that 5 mmol of CF2ClCFClCOOH is used instead of compound 21 in Example 2.
The desired product FSO2CF2(CF2)3CF2SO2F is obtained by electrolytic coupling reaction in the same manner as in Example 2 except that 2.5 mmol of HOOC(CF2)3COOH is used instead of compound 21 in Example 2.
According to the production method of the present invention, fluorinated compounds having —SO2F with various structures can be produced in a short step from readily available compounds.
