A multi-step process for preparing 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-1-propene comprising the steps of (a) contacting a starting material comprising 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propene with hydrogen fluoride in the presence of activated first catalyst selected from the group consisting of antimony-halides, iron-halides, titanium halides, and tin-halides, to produce an intermediate composition; and (b) contacting said intermediate composition with a second catalyst of activated carbon to produce a final product comprising 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-1-propene. |
