Perfluoroalkyl esters, a process for their preparation and their use as

Abstract

Perfluoroalkyl esters of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 denotes C.sub.2 -C.sub.20, preferably C.sub.4 -C.sub.14 -perfluoroalkyl or perfluoroalkoxyperfluoroalkyl, R.sub.2 denotes C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 -alkylene, R.sub.3 denotes C.sub.2 -C.sub.5 -.omega.-epoxyalkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.18, preferably C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 -alkyl, which can be substituted by 1 or 2 halogen atoms, preferably chlorine atoms, by hydroxyl groups, by a group of the formula ##STR2## by 1 to 3 groups of the formula --OCO--CX.dbd.CY--COO--(CH.sub.2).sub.m --R.sub.1 or by, in each case, one lower alkoxy, epoxy, lower acyloxy, lower alkoxycarbonyl, lower acylamino, lower hydroxylalkylthio, lower trialkylamino, lower trialkylammonium, phenyl, phenoxy or furanyl group or R.sub.3, in the case where b=0, also denotes C.sub.3 -C.sub.18 -alkenyl, which can be subsituted by hydroxyl groups or a phenyl group; C.sub.3 -C.sub.8 -alkynyl, which can be substituted by hydroxyl groups; cyclohexyl; phenyl, which can be substituted by 1-3 C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl groups or by phenyl, or naphthyl, R.sub.4 denotes hydrogen or methyl, R.sub.5 denotes hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, X and Y denote hydrogen, halogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, a denotes a number from 1 to 10, b denotes 0 or 1 and m denotes a number from 1 to 6, preferably 1 to 4, a process for their preparation and their use for providing oil and water-repellant finishing of textile material.
