• understanding the phase barrier and its role in phase-vanishing reactions. Other PTFE films have been found to exhibit selective permeability towards organic compounds, and this permeability is affected by the presence of solvents. Weber and coworkers have reported such an investigation into the properties of

• ; halocyclization; halolactonization; iodine monochloride; phase-vanishing reactions; Introduction Phase-vanishing reactions, introduced by Ryu [1], Curran [1][2] and Verkade [3], are triphasic reactions, which involve a reagent, a substrate and a liquid perfluoroalkane. A more recent improvement of phase
