Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing a compound of the formula: CF.sub.3 CHXCF.sub.3-z Y.sub.2 where X and Y are independently selected from the group consisting of H and Cl, and z is 0 or 1. The process involves (1) contacting CCl.sub.3 CHXCC.sub.3-z Y.sub.z,CCl.sub.2-z .dbd.CXCC.sub.3, and/or CCl.sub.2 CX.dbd.CC.sub.3-z Y.sub.z starting material, with hydrogen fluoride at a temperature of less than 200.degree. C. to produce a fluorination product of said starting material which includes at least 90 mole percent total of C.sub.3 HXY.sub.z Cl.sub.6-z-x F.sub.x saturated compounds and C.sub.3 XY.sub.z Cl.sub.5-z-y F.sub.y olefinic compounds, wherein x is an integer from 1 to 6-z and y is an integer from 1 to 5-z, (the fluorination product including no more than about 40 mole percent of the desired product, CF.sub.3 CHXCF.sub.3-z Y.sub.z); (2) contacting saturated compounds and olefinic compounds produced in (1) with hydrogen fluoride in the vapor phase at a temperature of from 200.degree. C. to about 400.

Abstract: Azeotropes of HF and 2,2-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane and of HF and 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane. Process for the separation of hydrogen fluoride (HF), 2,2-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane (FC-123), and/or 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (FC-124) from mixtures containing them by controlling the molar ratio of HF/FC-123 in the mixture prior to subjecting the mixture to azeotropic distillation.

Abstract: Process for the separation of HF, 2,2-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane (FC-123) and/or 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (FC-124) mixture by subjecting the mixture to a temperature from about -80.degree. C. to about 40.degree. C. and a pressure from about 0.10 MPa to about 3.55 MPa in a separation zone, whereby an organic phase having less than 15 mole percent of HF is formed as the bottom layer in the separation zone and an acid phase having at least 93 mole percent of HF is formed at the top in the separation zone.
