A hydrofluoroolefin compound represented by the following general formula (I): where, Rh is CH═CH 2 or C(CH 3 )═CH 2 ; and (i) x is O; n is 1; Y is F; Rf 2 is F; and Rf 1 is a linear or branched fluorinated alkyl group having 1-10 carbon atoms and optionally includes one or more catenated heteroatoms selected from O, N, and S; or ({umlaut over (υ)}) x is N, n is 2, Y is F or CF 3 ; Rf 2 is F or CF 3 ; and (a) each Rf 1 is bonded to x, and is independently a linear or branched fluorinated alkyl group having 1-8 carbon atoms and optionally includes one or more catenated heteroatom selected from O, N or S; or (e) the Rf 1 groups are bonded together to form a ring structure having 4 to 8 carbon atoms that optionally includes one or more catenated heteroatoms selected from O, N, or S; with the proviso that when Y═CF 3 , then Rf 2 ═F. |
