Abstract

A process is disclosed for making CF3CF═CH2 or mixtures thereof with CHF═CFCHF2. The process involves contacting CCl3CF2CF3 and optionally CCl2FCF2CClF2 with H2 in the presence of a palladium catalyst supported on a support of alumina, fluorided alumina and/or aluminum fluoride, to produce a product mixture including CH2═CFCF3 (and when CCl2FCF2CClF2 is present, CHF═CFCHF2); recovering CH2═CFCF3 or a mixture thereof with CHF═CFCHF2 from the product mixture. The present invention also provides another process that involves reacting CCl3CF2CF3 and optionally CCl2FCF2CClF2 with H2 in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst to form CH3CF2CF3 (and when CCl2FCF2CClF2 is present, CH2FCF2CHF2); dehydrofluorinating; and recovering CH2═CFCF3 or a mixture thereof with CHF═CFCHF2.
