Embodiment Construction

[0026] now refer to figure 1 To further illustrate the present invention, this figure is a simple schematic diagram of a device that can be used to implement the method of the present invention. exist figure 1 In, HF and HFP are vaporized, and then ( 1 ) into a gas phase catalytic reactor operating at 50 psig and 200-300°C ( 2 ). The diluent ( 5 ) into the reactor. into the reactor ( 2 ) molar ratio of HFC-227ea:HF:HFP (by 1 and 5 The mixture of streams obtained) is maintained at approximately 5:3:1 HFC-227ea:HF:HFP. reactor( 2 ) The inlet temperature is maintained at 200°C. By adjusting the diluent flow ( 5 ) flow rate, the entire reactor ( 2 ) was controlled and a high conversion of HFP (95%) was obtained. The reaction mixture containing HF and HFC-227ea was condensed, and ( 3 ) into a distillation column operating at 50-150 psig ( 4 ). HF and HFC-227ea form a low-boiling azeotrope, and substantially all of the HF and the azeotropic amount (or more) of HFC-...

Abstract

A process for the production of HFC-227ea from HF and HFP is provided. This process takes advantage of an azeotropic composition of HF and HFC-227ea in order to produce HFC-227ea essentially free of HF and recycle unreacted HF back to the reactor. The recycle of said azeotropic composition, also allows the use of HFC-227ea as a diluent to aid in control of reactor temperature for a highly exothermic reaction.

Description

[0001] Cross-reference to related applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application 60 / 339,923, filed October 31,2001. field of invention [0003] The present invention relates to a chemical production process for the preparation of 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropane (HFC-227ea) from hydrogen fluoride (HF) and hexafluoropropylene (HFP). Background technique [0004] Hydrocarbons containing chlorine or bromine, especially chlorofluorocarbons or bromofluorocarbons, have been widely used as solvents, blowing agents, refrigerants, cleaning agents, aerosol propellants, heat transfer media, dielectrics, fire extinguishing agents, and power Circulate the working fluid. Many of these chlorofluorocarbons and bromofluorocarbons are considered harmful to the Earth's ozone layer. Worldwide efforts to develop feedstocks with lower ozone depletion potential have identified a number of hydrofluorocarbons (i.e., compounds containing only carbon, hydrogen a...
