PROCESS FOR PRODUCING HYDROCARBON FLUORIDE

摘要

A process for producing a hydrocarbon fluoride at a high selectivity with minimum formation of by-products is disclosed, which comprises reacting a hydrogen-containing hydrocarbon halide with anhydrous hydrogen fluoride in a liquid phase in the presence of a reaction product of (i) at least one of (a) an oxygen-containing compound selected from the group consisting of H2O, H2O2 and an oxygen-containing organic compound, and (b) a nitrogen-containing compound selected from the group consisting of NH3 and a nitrogen-containing organic compound, (ii) a tin compound selected from the group consisting of a stannic halide, a stannic oxyhalide and an organotin compound, and (iii) anhydrous hydrogen fluoride.
