A novel fluoropolymer prepared from ethylcellulose by acylation with perfluorobutyryl chloride has been shown to be remarkably non-thrombogenic in vena cava and renal embolus ring implant tests. Gas permeabilities of this fluoropolymer are dufficient to make it highly attractive for
Synthesis of 2-and 2, 5-substituted benzoxazoles and benzothiazoles.
