2-Chloro-1,1,1,3-tetrafluoropropane

Description:

2-Chloro-1,1,1,3-tetrafluoropropane, with the CAS number 117970-90-8, is a halogenated hydrocarbon that belongs to the class of fluorinated alkanes. This compound is characterized by the presence of both chlorine and fluorine atoms, which significantly influence its chemical properties and reactivity. It typically appears as a colorless gas or liquid, depending on the temperature and pressure conditions. The presence of multiple fluorine atoms contributes to its high stability and low reactivity, making it less prone to degradation in the environment. Additionally, 2-chloro-1,1,1,3-tetrafluoropropane has a relatively low boiling point and is non-flammable, which can be advantageous in various applications, including as a refrigerant or solvent. However, its environmental impact, particularly regarding ozone depletion potential and global warming potential, is a consideration in its use and regulation. Safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as halogenated compounds can pose health risks if not managed properly.

Controlled Product

CAS: 117970-90-8

The chlorofluoropropane (CFP) method is an efficient, one-step method for the synthesis of potassium or sodium salts from halides and alcohols. The reaction proceeds via a nucleophilic substitution reaction with potassium chloride as the nucleophile. The CFP method is an environmentally friendly process that requires no solvents. It produces a single product, which is the desired salt, in high yield and with excellent selectivity for the target compound.
