Abstract
Processes are disclosed for decreasing the chlorine to carbon ratio for halogenated hydrocarbons containing chlorine and from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, in the presence of a multiphase catalyst. The processes each involve (1) preparing a single phase solid catalyst precursor which has a structure that collapses at a temperature of about 400.degree. C. or less and has the formula (NH.sub.3).sub.6 Ru.sub.l-r-s Co.sub.r Cr.sub.s MF.sub.6, where r+s is in the range of 0.00 to 0.99, and M is at least one trivalent metal selected from the group consisting of Al, Cr, Fe, V, Sc and Ga; and (2) producing the multiphase catalyst by heating the single phase solid catalyst precursor to about 400.degree. C. or less in an non-oxidizing atomsphere to produce a multiphase composition wherein a phase containing ruthenium is homogeneously dispersed with a phase containing metal fluoride. Also disclosed are single phase fluoride compositions having the formula (NH.sub.3).sub.6 Ru.sub.l-r-s Co.sub.r Cr.sub.s MF.sub.6, where r+s is in the range of 0.00 to 0.99, and M is at least one trivalent element selected from the group consisting of Al, Cr, Fe, V, Sc and Ga; and multiphase catalyst compositions consisti…
