A new synthesis of vinylene fluoride by means of the dehalogenation of 1,2‐dichloro‐1,2‐difluoroethane is reported. Both the pure cis and pure trans isomers of vinylene fluoride were found to polymerize quite readily. This polymer differs from the known polyfluoroolefins in having little crystallinity and fair solubility in a number of common solvents. While it is not markedly unstable thermally, it is the least stable of the polyfluoroethylenes in this respect. Several copolymers were prepared to further elucidate the polymerization behavior of vinylene fluoride, and some of the properties of these copolymers were examined.
