โฆ Synopsis
The aminium salt induced reactions of stilbenes (la-d), affording a mixture of indane (2a--e) and/or tetrahydronaphthalene derivatives (3a,c,d), were found to occur with remarkably higher efficiency in 1,1,1,3,3,3hexafluoropropan-2-ol (HFP) than, if at all, in dichloromethane (DCM) solutions. This solvent effect seems consistent with an electron-transfer mechanism via radical cations 1 รท" that chemical evidence indicates to be favoured over an alternative electrophilic mechanism involving carbocations IH +.

Over the past 25 yr several classes of polymers (epoxy resins, polyurethanes, polyacrylates etc.) derived from aromatic monomers bearing -C(CF,),OH groups have been developed. These materials have exceptional heat, light and chemical resistance in addition to low surface energy, low water absorption
