Abstract
Abstract: Results are reported on the efficiency of polyfluorooctanol as a perfluorous auxiliary component in the aldol reaction between the enolate derived from polyfluorooctyl acetate and 2-fluorobenzaldehyde. Reduction of the corresponding polyfluoro β-hydroxy ester with Super Hydride® gave the required 1, 3-diol in good yield.
