Abstract
Certain esters of .alpha.-fluoroacrylic acid are accessible by hydrolyzing .alpha.-hydroxymethyl .alpha.-fluoromalonic acid esters and subsequently decarboxylating the hydrolysis product. The phenyl .alpha.-fluoroacrylates which are substituted on the phenyl radical can be prepared by hydroxymethylating dimethyl .alpha.-fluoromalonate, decarboxylating and dehydrating the resuiting dimethyl .alpha.-hydroxymethyl-.alpha.-fluoromalonate and esterifying the resuiting .alpha.-fluoroacrylic acid with substituted phenols. The substituted phenyl .alpha.-fluoroacrylates are colorless liquids or colorless solids which can be polymerized. They are suitable for use as a starting material for the preparation of fluorine polymers.
