CATALYTIC ISOMERIZATION BETWEEN E AND Z ISOMERS OF 1,2,3,3,3 PENTAFLUOROPROPENE USING ALUMINUM CATALYST

摘要

A starting material comprising 1,2,3,3,3 pentafluoropropene is contacted with an aluminum chlorofluoride (AlClxF3-x) catalyst to obtain a final product wherein the Z/E ratio of 1,2,3,3,3 pentafluoropropene is either increased or decreased relative to the Z/E ratio of 1,2,3,3,3 pentafluoropropene in said starting material.
