Abstract

There is provided a process for producing HFC-125 and/or HCFC-124 from PCE, characterized by the first reaction step of fluorinating PCE in the presence of catalyst in a liquid phase to form HCFC-123 and/or HCFC-122 and the second reaction step of fluorinating HCFC-123 and/or HCFC-122 in the presence of catalyst in a vapor phase to form HFC-125 and/or HCFC-124. This process is improved in the yield of objective products, and life of catalyst, and the controllability of reaction temperature.
