Abstract

The invention relates to a gas-phase continuous method for preparing 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-1-propene, said method comprising the following steps: (i) hydrogenation of hexafluoropropylene to form 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane; (ii) dehydrofluorination of the 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane obtained in the previous step to 1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropene-1; (iii) hydrogenation of the 1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropene-1 obtained in the previous step to form 1,1,1,2,3-pentafluoropropane; and (iv) dehydrofluorination of the 1,1,1,2,3-pentafluoropropane obtained in the previous step to form 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-1-propene.
