Preparation of fluorinated organic compounds with elemental fluorine and fused alumina reactor.

摘要

Highly fluorinated compounds are prepared by reacting fluorine with an organic compound having at least one fluorinatable carbon using a fused alumina porus tube. The fluorine is introduced into the porous tube and migrates outwardly. The organic is introduced outside the porous tube. A diluent such as sulfur hexafluoride or nitrogen may be used, but is not required. The process is particularly applicable to the production of octafluoropropane.
