Abstract

A process for the preparation of 2,2-difluoro-1,3-benzodioxole from 2,2-dichlorol,3-benzodioxole. 2,2-Difluoro-1,3-benzodioxole is prepared by reaction of 2,2-dichloro-1,3-benzodioxole with potassium fluoride in the presence of an effective quantity of a catalyst selected from potassium hydrogen fluoride, sodium hydrogen fluoride, cesium hydrogen fluoride, rubidium hydrogen fluoride, and quaternary ammonium hydrogen fluoride. 2,2-Difluoro-1,3-benzoxodiole is an intermediate compound which is used particularly for the preparation of products for agricultural chemistry and for the synthesis of pharmaceutical products.
