Abstract

Perfluoroalkanoic acids with different lengths of the perfluoroalkyl radical selectively add under mild conditions to the exocyclic double C=C of limonene to give the corresponding Markovnikov adducts, α-terpinyl perfluoroalkanoates. The reaction in the presence of sulfuric acid 0°C involves both double C=C bonds in the limonene molecule with formation of p-menthane-1,8-diyl bis(perfluoroalkanoates).
