Tetrachloro-1,2-difluoroethane
Tetrachloro-1,2-difluoroethane is a chlorofluorocarbon known as Freon 112, CFC-112 or R-112. It has a symmetrical structure CCl2FCCl2F and so can be called symmetrical tetrachlorodifluoroethane. "Symmetrical" may also be abbreviated to "s-" or "sym-". In contrast an asymmetrical isomer has formula CCl3CClF2. Production CFC-112 can be made in a reaction of hexachloroethane or tetrachloroethane with hydrogen fluoride and extra chlorine. This reaction is catalysed by aluminium fluoride with some extra iron, nickel and chromium at 400°C. The extra metal in the catalyst yields can be 98% compared with the unsymmetrical isomer. Mixed with perfluorooctane, it is a solvent for polydimethylsiloxane. CFC-112 can be prepared as a mixture with other hydrochlorofluorocarbons from trichloroethylene and anhydrous hydrogen fluoride when electric current is passed through. When CFC-11 is packaged with alcohol in a metal container, a free radical reaction can result in production of CFC-112. Pr ...
