Selective Hydrodechlorination of CFC-113 to 1-Chloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethylene over Supported Ni Catalysts

Various metal oxides have been examined as catalysts for the hydrodechlorination of CFC-113 to form 1-chloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethylene (CFC-1113).NiO was most effective and over silica gel- or Y-zeolite-supported Ni catalyst, 100 percent conversion of CFC-113 and 96percent selectivity to CFC-1113 were attained.

Photoreduction of 1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane initiated by TiO2 particles

Reductive dehalogenation of 1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane (CFC 113) takes place upon illumination of air-free suspensions of TiO2 particles containing formate ions. Chloride ions and 1,2-dichlorotrifluoroethane (HCFC 123a) are the main reaction products. Reaction rates increase with increasing concentration of CFC even beyond the solubility limit of the Freon in water. Evidence is presented that a chain transformation of the Freon takes place in formate solutions. The results are explained assuming that reduction of the Freon proceeds via a radical chain mechanism, which involves participation of CFC and formate species located on as well as next to the oxide surface.

Selective reduction of halopolyfluorocarbons by organosilicon hydrides

It is demonstrated that silicon hydrides can be used for reduction of polyfluorinated halocarbons. For example, the reaction between CF3CCl2F and excess triethylsilane, catalyzed by benzoyl peroxide, leads to the formation of a mixture containing CF3CHClF (major), CF3CH2F, and ClSi(C2H5)3. On the other hand, the reaction of chlorofluoroalkanes, containing an internal -CCl2- group readily proceeds with reduction of both chlorines, leading to compounds such as (CF3)2CH2 and CF3CH2C2F5. In contrast to chlorofluoroalkanes, bromofluoroalkanes are much more reactive and reaction with hydrosilane rapidly proceeds without the catalyst at elevated temperature.

Deuterium isotope studies of the hydrofluorination of chloroethenes over chromia catalysts

The mechanism of the catalytic fluorination of chloroalkenes over a chromia catalyst has been investigated by examining the effects of substituting DF for HF as the fluorine source for reaction with tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene.At a temperature of 250 degC and a HF (DF)/alkene molar ratio of 4.2:1, the rate of conversion of tetrachloroethene is increased by using DF and there is a concomitant increase in the selectivity to some chlorofluoroalkanes and a decrease in the selectivity to chlorofluoroalkenes.The opposite behaviour observed for the halogenated alkenes and alkanes indicates that the alkenes are not important intermediates in the production of the alkanes by a series of hydrofluorination and dehydrochlorination reactions.For tetrachloroethene, the main reaction pathway to the alkanes is a direct chlorine/fluorine exchange over a heavily fluorinated chromia surface with minimal C-H/C-D cleavage of intermediates.Substitution of DF for HF causes no change in the product selectivities from reaction with trichloroethene over chromia catalysts.However, the presence of dideutero - and monodeutero - products shows that both chlorine/fluorine exchange and HF addition / HCl elimination pathways are occurring for the less-substituted alkene.
