AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

There is a need for efficient processes to produce 1,1-difluoropropene (HFO-1252zc), a potential new refrigerant that meets evolving regulatory standards for low ozone depletion potential (ODP) and global warming potential (GWP), while also providing superior heat transfer and refrigerant characteristics.

Method used

The process involves converting 1,1,1,3-tetrachloropropane (HCC-250fb) into HFO-1252zc through intermediates such as 1,3-dichloro-1,1-difluoropropane (HCFC-252fc) and 3-chloro-3,3-difluoro-1-propene (HCFO-1242zf) using hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen in the presence or absence of catalysts, followed by dehydrohalogenation.

Benefits of technology

This process effectively produces HFO-1252zc, addressing the need for refrigerants with low ODP and GWP, and providing superior performance in various applications while meeting evolving regulatory standards.
