Reaction Conditions:

with hydrogen;potassium hydroxide in water at 135;Product distribution / selectivity;

Steps:

1

1005 g of a water and KOH mixture in which the KOH is present at 66% by weight are introduced into a one-litre cylindrical reactor made of stainless steel which is equipped with a heating device and with a device for measuring the temperature of the reaction medium. HFC-236ea, with a flow rate of 150 g/h, and hydrogen, with a flow rate of 12 Nl/h, are bubbled, using a dip pipe, into the medium maintained at 135° C. The gaseous products exit from the reactor via an orifice situated on the lid and are dried via a molecular sieve column and then collected in a stainless steel trap cooled with liquid nitrogen.The reaction is halted after introduction of 48.3 g of HFC-236ea and the following are obtained:a conversion of HFC-236ea of 92.7%a selectivity for HFO-I225ye (E+Z) of 99%a yield of HFO-I225yeE of 89.9%.The molar concentration of CF₂=CFH in the liquid collected in the trap at the outlet of the reactor is 0.02%.
