| Reactions of halogens chlorine (Cl2), bromine (Br2), and interhalogens iodine monochloride (ICl) or iodine monobromide (IBr) with 4-Halo-1,1,2-trifluorobut-1-enes were studied. Ionic reactions of halogen electrophiles give three-membered halonium ion intermediates (1) that can rearrange by neighboring group participation from the 4-Halosubstituent to a five-membered ring trifluorotetramethylene halonium ions (2). The effect that the number-4-halogen substituent (Z=Cl, Br or I) has on formation of 2 (X=Cl, Br or I) is presented.
