Abstract:
The invention relates to a cost effective and convenient process for the manufacture of fluorinated olefins of the formula RCF.sub.2 CH=CH.sub.2 where R is C.sub.x Cl.sub.y F.sub.z and y+z=2x+1. The invention is also directed to a practical process for converting these olefins to hydrofluorocarbons via the catalyzed fluorination with hydrogen fluoride. Hydrofluorocarbons produced via this process have application as solvents among other uses.

Abstract:
A process for the preparation of compounds of the formula, F(CF.sub.2).sub.a CC1.sub.2 CC1.sub.2 (CF.sub.2).sub.b F where a and b are the same or different and are each an integer .gtoreq.1 (including the novel compound CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 CC1.sub.2 CC1.sub.2 CF.sub.2 CF.sub.3), which comprises chlorination in the presence of irradiation, of at least one compound of the formula, F(CF.sub.2).sub.n CH.sub.x C1.sub.3-x where n is an integer .gtoreq.1 and x is an integer .ltoreq.3. There is also disclosed a process for utilizing the F(CF.sub.2).sub.a CC1.sub.2 CC1.sub.2 (CF.sub.2).sub.b F compounds to produce F(CF.sub.2).sub.a CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 (CF.sub.2).sub.b F.sub.3 compounds which comprises contacting hydrogen and the F(CF.sub.2).sub.a CC1.sub.2 CC1.sub.2 (CF.sub.2).sub.b F compounds in the presence of a catalysis which includes at least one Group VIII transition metal. A further aspect of the invention is a novel group of compounds, F(CF.sub.2).sub.a CC1.sub.2 CC1.sub.2 (CF.sub.2).sub.b F, wherein a and b are the same or different and are each an integer from 2 to 10, particularly 3,3,4,4-tetrachloroperfluorohexane (i.e., CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 CC1.sub.2 CC1.sub.2 CF.sub.2 CF.sub.3), whose corresponding hydrofluorocarbons can be used as cleaning solvents.
