Abstract
A process is disclosed for the manufacture of CFCHCHFand CFCHFCHF. The process involves (a) reacting hydrogen fluoride, chlorine, and at least one halopropene of the formula CXCCl═CClX (where each X is independently F or Cl) to produce a product including both CFCClCClFand CFCClFCClF; (b) reacting CFCClCClFand CFCClFCClF produced in (a) with hydrogen to produce a product including both CFCHCHF, and CFCHFCHF; and (c) recovering CFCHCHFand CFCHFCHF from the product produced in (b). In (a), the CFCClCFand CFCClFCClFare produced in the presence of a chlorofluorination catalyst including (i) a crystalline alpha-chromium oxide where at least 0.05 atom % of the chromium atoms in the alpha-chromium oxide lattice are replaced by divalent copper, and/or (ii) a chromium-containing composition of (i) which has been treated with a fluorinating agent.
