- manufacturing processes that provide halogenated hydrocarbons and fluoroolefins that contain no chlorine that also have a low global warming potential.
- the process is a method for synthesizing fluorinated alkenes in a continuous process, contacting a fluorinated alkyne of the formula R 1 C ⁇ C R 2 , wherein R 1 and R 2 are independently selected from CF 3 , C 2 F 5 , C 3 F 7 , and C 4 F 9 , in a reaction zone, in the gas phase with substantially one equivalent or less of hydrogen in the presence of a Lindlar catalyst.
- the process is a method for the synthesis of fluorinated alkenes from the corresponding fluorinated alkynes in high selectivity by selective hydrogenation in the presence of particular catalysts.
- the terms “comprises,” “comprising,” “includes,” “including,” “has,” “having” or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion.

- Octafluoro-2-pentyne can be prepared from 1 ,1 ,1 ,2,2,3,4,5,5,5- decafluoropentane by dehydofluroinating twice in the presence of base, or zeolites, as disclosed in Japanese patent 2004292329.
- the catalyst of the process is a Lindlar catalyst.
- the amount of the catalyst used is from about 0.5% by weight to about 4% by weight of the amount of the fluorinated alkyne.
- the amount of the catalyst used is from about 1 % by weight to about 3% by weight of the amount of the fluorinated alkyne.
- the amount of the catalyst used is from about 1 % to about 2% by weight of the amount of the fluorinated alkyne.
- the reaction is conducted in a solvent.
- the solvent is an alcohol.
- Typical alcohol solvents include ethanol, /-propanol and n-propanol.
- the solvent is a fluorocarbon or hydrofluorocarbon.
- Typical fluorocarbons or hydrofluorocarbons include 1 ,1 ,1 ,2,2,3,4,5,5,5-decafluoropentane and 1 ,1 ,2,2,3,3,4-heptafluorocyclopentane.
- the process is conducted in a batchwise process.
- the process is conducted in a continuous process in the gas phase.
- reaction of the fluorinated alkynes with hydrogenation in the presence of the catalyst should be done with addition of hydrogen in portions, with increases in the pressure of the vessel of no more than about 100 psi with each addition.
- the addition of hydrogen is controlled so that the pressure in the vessel increases no more than about 50 psi with each addition.
- hydrogen can be added in larger increments for the remainder of the reaction.
- hydrogen can be added in larger increments for the remainder of the reaction.
- hydrogen can be added in larger increments for the remainder of the reaction.
- the larger increments of hydrogen addition can be 300 psi. In another embodiment, the larger increments of hydrogen addition can be 400 psi.
- the amount of hydrogen added is about one molar equivalent per mole of fluorinated alkyne. In another embodiment, the amount of hydrogen added is from about 0.9 moles to about 1.3 moles, per mole of fluorinated alkyne. In yet another embodiment, the amount of hydrogen added is from about 0.95 moles to about 1.1 moles, per mole of fluorinated alkyne. In yet another embodiment, the amount of hydrogen added is from about 0.95 moles to about 1.03 moles, per mole of fluorinated alkyne.
- the hydrogenation is performed at ambient temperature. In another embodiment, the hydrogenation is performed at above ambient temperature. In yet another embodiment, the hydrogenation is performed at below ambient temperature. In yet another embodiment, the hydrogenation is performed at a temperature of below about 0° C.
- a mixture of fluorinated alkyne and hydrogen are passed through a reaction zone containing the catalyst. In one embodiment, the molar ratio of hydrogen to fluorinated alkyne is about 1 :1. In another embodiment of a continuous process, the molar ratio of hydrogen to fluorinated alkyne is less than 1 :1. In yet another embodiment, the molar ratio of hydrogen to fluorinated alkyne is about 0.67:1.0.
- the reaction zone is maintained at ambient temperature. In another embodiment of a continuous process, the reaction zone is maintained at a temperature of 30 0 C. In yet another embodiment of a continuous process, the reaction zone is maintained at a temperature of about 40 0 C.
- the flow rate of fluorinated alkyne and hydrogen is maintained so as to provide a residence time in the reaction zone of about 30 seconds. In another embodiment of a continuous process, the flow rate of fluorinated alkyne and hydrogen is maintained so as to provide a residence time in the reaction zone of about 15 seconds. In yet another embodiment of a continuous process, the flow rate of fluorinated alkyne and hydrogen is maintained so as to provide a residence time in the reaction zone of about 7 seconds.
- contact time in the reaction zone is reduced by increasing the flow rate of fluorinated alkyne and hydrogen into the reaction zone. As the flow rate is increased this will increase the amount of fluorinated alkyne being hydrogenated per unit time. Since the hydrogenation is exothermic, depending on the length and diameter of the reaction zone, and its ability to dissipate heat, at higher flow rates it may be desirable to provide a source of external cooling to the reaction zone to maintain a desired temperature.
- the amount of palladium on the support in the Lindlar catalyst is 5% by weight. In another embodiment, the amount of palladium on the support in the Lindlar catalyst is greater than 5% by weight. In yet another embodiment, the amount of palladium on the support can be from about 5% by weight to about 1 % by weight.

In another embodiment, upon completion of a batch-wise or continuous hydrogenation process, the cis-dihydrorofluoroalkene is of sufficient purity to not require further purification steps.
- Example 1 demonstrates the selective hydrogenation of hexafluoro- 2-butyne.
- Example 2 demonstrates the hydrogenation of hexafluoro-2-butyne with 2% catalyst by weight.
- Example 3 demonstrates the hydrogenation of octafluoro-2-pentyne with 1 % catalyst by weight.

- Hastelloy tube reactor 10" long with a 5" O. D. (outside diameter) and 0.35" wall thickness was filled with 10 g of Lindlar catalyst.
- the catalyst was conditioned at 70 0 C with a flow of hydrogen for 24 hours. Then a flow of a 1 :1 mole ratio of hexafluoro-2-butyne and hydrogen was passed through the reactor at 30 0 C at a flow rate sufficient to provide a 30 second contact time.
- the product mixture was collected in a cold trap after exiting the reactor and analyzed by gas chromatography.
- Example 7 demonstrates the hydrogenation of hexafluoro-2-butyne in a continuous process with a 15 second contact time.
- Example 8 demonstrates the hydrogenation of hexafluoro-2-butyne in a continuous process with a hydrogen:alkyne mole ratio of 0.67:1.
