Abstract
A process for the continuous production of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane (HFC-236fa) and/or 1-chloro-1,1,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane (HCFC-235fa) in the liquid phase wherein the HFC-235fa and/or HFC-236fa serve as solvents for the reaction. When the reaction is conducted in the presence of a catalyst of SbF.sub.3, SbF.sub.5 or a mixture of SbF.sub.5 and HSO.sub.3 F, the reaction mass is unexpectedly less corrosive to the reaction vessel used.
