Abstract
The present invention provides a novel process for producing 1,2-dichloro-1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane substantially free of the 1,1-isomer. The process includes contacting, in the vapor phase, an organic feed composition containing a major amount of the 1,2-isomer and a minor amount of 1,1-isomer with hydrogen in the presence of a hydrodechlorination catalyst. The process selectively degrades the 1,1-isomer. Also provided is a process for producing high purity 1,2-isomer.
