Hexafluoroisobutylene is an organofluorine compound with the formula (CF3)2C=CH2.
This colorless gas is structurally similar to isobutylene.
It is used as a comonomer in the production of modified polyvinylidene fluoride.
It is produced in a multistep process starting with the reaction of acetic anhydride with hexafluoroacetone.
As expected, it is a potent dienophile.
