Abstract
This novel electrochemical chlorofluorination involves the passage of each of the title materials, together with chlorine, through liquid hydrogen fluoride containing sodium fluoride. Chlorofluoroethanes were produced directly from ethylene, ethane, and fluoroethylene, while chlorofluoromethanes were produced directly from methane. Carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, and phosgene could also be used as a source of chlorine for the chlorofluorination reaction. Thionyl and sulfuryl chlorides, and sulfur mono- and di-chlorides did not act as chlorinating reagents.Keywords
