Abstract

Some syntheses described in the book involve toxic and dangerous compounds. The safety measures for handling them are generally included in the corresponding procedures. However, such compounds as hydrogen fluoride, sulphur tetrafluoride, tetrafluoroethylene and perfluoroisobutene are used in many syntheses, therefore it seemed reasonable to consider the safety measures pertaining to these chemicals, and first-aid treatment of injuries, in a separate chapter to avoid repetitions. These measures are to be perused before starting work with the above-mentioned compounds.
