PROCESS FOR MAKING HYDROHALOCARBONS AND SELECTED
COMPOUND BACKGROUND
Field of the Disclosure
This disclosure relates in general to the catalytical addition reactions of CHCI3 with a hydrohaloolefin and compound made thereby. Description of Related Art
Halogenated alkanes, such as CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) and HCFCs (hydrochlorofluorocarbons), have been employed in a wide range of applications, including their use as aerosol propellants, refrigerants, cleaning agents, expansion agents for thermoplastic and thermoset foams, heat transfer media, gaseous dielectrics, fire extinguishing and
suppression agents, power cycle working fluids, polymerization media, particulate removal fluids, carrier fluids, buffing abrasive agents, and displacement drying agents. They are also useful as intermediates to more highly fluorinated compositions such as HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons) and HFOs (hydrofluoroolefins). Due to the concerns of ozone depletion caused by some of the CFC and HCFC products, HFCs have replaced CFCs and HCFCs in a number of applications including using as refrigerants or foam expansion agents. HFOs have been regarded as good candidates to replace traditional CFCs, HCFCs and HFCs since they are both ozone- friendly and having low global warming potentials (GWPs).
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE
The present disclosure provides a liquid phase process to produce a product mixture comprising addition compound CHCI2CHXCCIYR, wherein X and Y are each independently selected from the group consisting of H, F, CI and Br, and R = H or a perhalogenated alkyl group. The process comprises reacting CHCI3 with CHX=CYR in the presence of an addition catalyst.
New compound provided in accordance with this disclosure is CHCI2CH2CHCICF3. It is useful as an intermediate for producing
hydrofluorocarbons and hydrofluoroolefins such as CF3CH=CHCF2H.
