Provided is a method for producing an olefin compound using reaction with a base, whereby a target product with a higher purity than the prior art can be obtained. Specifically, provided is a method for producing an olefin compound by reacting a phosphorus-containing olefin compound salt with a base to obtain a dephosphorized and hydrogenated olefin compound, wherein the temperature of the reaction is 50° C. or less.

Olefin compound production method

Provided is a method for purifying a phosphorus-containing olefin compound salt as a raw material or an intermediate that is useful to increase the purity of a target product in a method for producing an olefin compound and that can be applied to the production method, and a method for producing an olefin compound using a purified product obtained thereby. Specifically, provided is a method for purifying a phosphorus-containing olefin compound salt, comprising reprecipitating and/or recrystallizing a solid comprising at least one phosphorus-containing olefin compound salt selected from the group consisting of:

The present disclosure provides a method for producing HFC-143 at low cost and more efficiently than when using conventional methods. Specifically, the present disclosure provides a method for producing 1,1,2-trifluoroethane (HFC-143), comprising performing one or more fluorination reactions by bringing at least one chlorine-containing compound selected from the group consisting of 2-chloro-1,1-difluoroethane (HCFC-142) and 1-chloro-1,2-difluoroethane (HCFC-142a) into contact with hydrogen fluoride to obtain a reaction gas containing HFC-143, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen fluoride.

Method for producing 1,1,2-trifluoroethane (HFC-143)

The present disclosure provides a method for producing HFC-143 that is not expensive, and that is more efficient than conventional methods. Specifically, the present disclosure provides a method for producing 1,1,2-trifluoroethane (HFC-143) that includes contacting at least one chlorine-containing compound selected from the group consisting of 1,1,2-trichloroethane (HCC-140), 1,2-dichloro-1-fluoroethane (HCFC-141), 1,1-dichloro-2-fluoroethane (HCFC-141a), (E,Z)-1,2-dichloroethylene (HCO-1130 (E,Z)), and (E,Z)-1-chloro-2-fluoroethylene (HCFO-1131 (E,Z)) with hydrogen fluoride to perform one or more fluorination reactions, thereby obtaining a reaction gas containing HFC-143, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen fluoride.

The present invention aims to provide an efficient method for obtaining a desired isomer of HFO-1132 from a composition comprising trans-1,2-difluoroethylene (HFO-1132(E)) and cis-1,2-difluoroethylene (HFO-1132(Z)). The present invention provides, as a means for solving the problem, a method for producing HFO-1132(E) and/or HFO-1132(Z), comprising steps (1) to (3): (1) supplying a composition comprising HFO-1132(E) and/or HFO-1132(Z) to a reactor filled with a catalyst to perform an isomerization reaction between the HFO-1132(E) and the HFO-1132(Z); (2) separating the reaction product obtained in step (1) into a first stream comprising the HFO-1132(E) as a main component, and a second stream comprising the HFO-1132(Z) as a main component; and (3) recycling the first stream or the second stream obtained in step (2) to the reactor, to subject the first stream or the second stream to the isomerization reaction.
