This invention discloses a catalyst for the chlorofluorination of 1,1,1,3-tetrachloropropane to prepare 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropylene, the catalyst being designated M. x O y / Fe p O q -MgF2, in which Fe p O q -MgF2 as support, Fe p O q It is a mixture of Fe2O3 and Fe3O4, M x O y M is the
active component. x O y It consists of one or more of Al2O3, CuO, ZnO, and La2O3. The catalyst preparation method includes: adding a
polyamine to an
aqueous solution of a soluble
magnesium salt at 30℃~60℃ with stirring, then adding
hydrofluoric acid dropwise, and continuing stirring for 10min~60min after the addition is complete; adding a
soluble iron salt to the above solution, and continuing stirring for 30min~90min; adding
ammonia dropwise to adjust the pH to 8~10, and continuing stirring for 60min~180min; filtering, washing the
filter cake with deionized water until the pH of the filtrate is ~7,
drying at 80℃~120℃, and calcining at 200℃~260℃ to obtain the supported Fe. p O q The precursor salt of the
active component is loaded onto a support using an impregnation method, dried at 80℃~120℃, and calcined at 260℃~320℃ to obtain the desired catalyst. The catalyst in this invention does not involve
chromium or
antimony compounds, and exhibits
high selectivity and yield for 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropylene, making it valuable for industrial applications.
