In order to know about chemical properties of a commercial organofluoro rodenticide, $Kiratol-F^{(R)}$, this experiment was carried out. Chemicals from different two manufactures were compared with synthetic compound by Gas Chromatograph and NMR-spectrophotometer. The results were as followings; 1. The permitted active ingrdient of Kiratol-F, ${\beta}$-fluoro-ethylacetate, was not identified, but ${\beta}$-fluoroethanol was a new active ingradient. 2. Kiratol-F was a water soluble liquid containing samll amounts of chloroethanol in impurity. 3. Yield of synthetic fluoroethanol was about 50%, but the composition of the reactant was assumed ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}$-fluoroethanol, and the light condition was better than the dark in yield. 4. It was not become known any breakdown of active ingredient by the different dilutions and time intervals. So, the secondary toxicity of Kiratol-F might be relatively higher than imagination.

This study discusses an esterification of trifluoroethanol (TFEA) with methacrylic acid (MA) using acid-resistant PVA pervaporation membrane. The acid-resistant PVA membranes, which were prepared via a thermal cross-linking reaction of PVA and EGDE were adopted in the esterification reaction. The effect of reaction conditions such as temperature, acid catalyst content, and initial molar ratio of TFEA/MA was investigated on the conversion of trifluoroethyl-methacrylate (TFEMA). It was found that TFEMA conversion increased with increasing the reaction temperature, the catalyst content, and the initial molar ratio. The economical conversion of TFEMA more than about 90% was obtained at the following reaction conditions: reaction temperature of $90^{\circ}C$, 2.5 wt% of catalyst and initial molar ratio of 1.7.

As a preliminary study for esterification membrane reactor used to produce 2,2,2-trifluoroethylmetacrylate (TFEMA), Pervaporation behaviors with crosslinked Poly(vinyl alcohol) composite membranes were investigated for aqueous TFEA (2,2,2-trifluoroethanol) feed solutions. In this study, crosslinked PVA composite membranes were prepared by reacting PVA with glutaraldehyde (CA)/acid catalyst onto porous polyethersulfone (PES) supports. SEH images (scanning electron microscopy) showed the thicknesses of selective coating layer was about 2-3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The swelling tests showed the dogree of crosslinking decreased as content of the crosslinking agent, GA, increased. Total permeation flux decreased while separation factor increased as the CA content increased. As operating temperature increased, total permeation flux remarkably increased in the range of 85-95 wt% TFEA aqueous solutions. Interestingly, however, separation factor decreased in 85-90 wt% with operating temperature, while that increased in 95 wt%. In case of 90 wt% TFEA concentration and operating temperature 8$0^{\circ}C$, the PVA composite membrane crosslinked with 0.1 mol GA per PVA repeating unit showed high permeation flux of 1.5 kg/$m^2$hr and separation factor of 320. These results confirmed the applicability of the PVA composite membranes for the esterification membrane reactor of TFEMA.
