The hexafluoro-Dewar-benzene adduct of phenyl azide yields hexafluoro-1 -phenyl-1 H-azepine on pyrolysis. Reaction of ethyl azidoformate with hexafluorobenzene yields ethyl hexafluoro-1 H-azepine-1 -carboxylate (21 %), with octafluoronaphthalene yields 1,2-(ethoxycarbonylimino) -1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octafluoro-l,2-dihydronaphthalene (23%), and with 1,2,3,4-tetrafluorOnaphthalene yields 1,2-(ethoxycarbonylimino) -1,2,3,4-tetraflu Dro-1 -1,2-dihydronaphthalene (1 8%) and ethyl 5,6,7,8-tetrafluwo-l -naphthylcarbamste (48%). No azepines were obtained from the reaction of cyanogen azide with the two naphthalenes.
