Abstract
A process is disclosed for the preparation of derivatives of perfluoroalkanecarboxylic acids and perfluoroalkanesulphinic acids by reacting a perfluoroalkylhalide having the general formula R.sub.F X, in which X represents an atom of chlorine, bromine, or iodine, and R.sub.F represents an unbranched or branched perfluorinated chain containing from 2 to 12 carbon atoms; with CO.sub.2 or SO.sub.2 in a solvent medium and in the presence of activated or unactivated zinc.
