A mild hydrodehalogenation of fluoroalkyl halides

A mild hydrodehalogenation reaction of fluoroalkyl halides (RfCF2X, X = Br, I) has been developed under weakly basic conditions, giving the corresponding hydrogenolysis products with moderate to high yields.

PHOTOCHLORINATION AND FLUORINATION PROCESS FOR PREPARATION OF FLUORINE-CONTAINING HYDROCARBONS

A process is disclosed for increasing the fluorine content of at least one compound selected from halohydrocarbons and hydrocarbons. The process involves (a) directing light from a light source through the wall of a reactor to interact with reactants comprising chlorine and said at least one compound in said reactor, thereby producing a halogenated hydrocarbon having increased chlorine content by photochlorination, and (b) reacting said halogenated hydrocarbon produced by the photochlorination in (a) with HF; and is characterized by the light directed through the reactor wall being directed through a poly(perhaloolefin) polymer.
