A process is disclosed for making CF3CF=CH2 or mixtures thereof with CHF2CF=CHF. This process involves (a) reacting CHCI2CF2CF3, and optionally CHCIFCF2CCIF2, with H2 in the presence of a catalytically effective amount of a hydrogenation catalyst to form CH3CF2CF3 and, when CHCIFCF2CCIF2 is present, CH2FCF2CHF2; (b) dehydrofluorinating CH3CF2CF3, and optionally any CH2FCF2CHF2, from (a) to form a product mixture including CF3CF=CH2 and, if CH2FCF2CHF2 Js present, CHF2CF=CHF; and optionally (c) recovering CF3CF=CH2, or a mixture thereof with CHF2CF=CHF from the product mixture formed in (b) and/or (d) separating at least a portion of any CHF2CF=CHF in the product mixture formed in (b) from the CF3CF=CH2 in the product mixture formed in (b).
Selective reduction of halopolyfluorocarbons by organosilicon hydrides

It is demonstrated that silicon hydrides can be used for reduction of polyfluorinated halocarbons. For example, the reaction between CF3CCl2F and excess triethylsilane, catalyzed by benzoyl peroxide, leads to the formation of a mixture containing CF3CHClF (major), CF3CH2F, and ClSi(C2H5)3. On the other hand, the reaction of chlorofluoroalkanes, containing an internal -CCl2- group readily proceeds with reduction of both chlorines, leading to compounds such as (CF3)2CH2 and CF3CH2C2F5. In contrast to chlorofluoroalkanes, bromofluoroalkanes are much more reactive and reaction with hydrosilane rapidly proceeds without the catalyst at elevated temperature.

The reduction of polyhalofluorocarbons, including ClCF2CFClCF2Cl, (ClCF2CFCl)2, ICH2(CF2)3CH2I and vicinal dichloroperfluorocycloalkanes, with tributyltin hydride gave the corresponding hydrofluorocarbons in good to excellent yield.The results are compared with similar reductions with other reducing agents, and to tin hydride reductions of non-fluorinated analogs. - Keywords: Reductive dehalogenation; Polyfluorocarbons; Tributyltin hydride; NMR spectroscopy; Hydrofluorocarbons
