<p>A process for producing chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane as a co-product of the production of 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane by hydrofluorination of trichloroethylene which comprises (i) treating the 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane product stream containing chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane and hydrogen fluoride to form a mixture of 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane and chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane and (ii) distilling said mixture to separate essentially pure chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane from the mixture. A preferred distillation in step (ii) comprises (iia) distilling the mixture to separate essentially pure 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane and form a second mixture of 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane and chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane and (iib) distilling said second mixture to separate essentially pure chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane from the second mixture.</p> |
