1. By the condensation of hexafluoroacetone and pentafluoronitroacetone with aromatic hydrocarbons the corresponding substituted benzyl alcohols were synthesized. It was shown that in this reaction pentafluoronitroacetone is less active than hexafluoroacetone. 2. In α-(difluoronitromethyl)-α-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl alcohols the difluoronitromethyl group is readily eliminated with formation of the corresponding ketones. 3. p-Methyl-α,α-bistrifluoromethylbenzyl alcohol is an intermediate product in the synthesis of hexafluoro-2,2 -di-p-tolylpropane. © 1967 Consultants Bureau.
