Provided is a method for preparing halocarbon, which may include reacting at least one C-2 halocarbon with at least one C-1 halocarbon in the presence of phosphate to produce at least one C-3 chlorocarbon. The method may comprise reacting ethylene with carbon tetrachloride in the presence of phosphate. A method of separating a halocarbon which may include providing a reaction product comprising at least one saturated fluorocarbon and at least one unsaturated fluorocarbon and adding at least one hydrohalogen to produce a distillate mixture. This is provided. In the preparation of 1, 1, 1, 3, 3-pentafluoropropane, methods and materials are provided for the preparation and purification of halogenated compounds and intermediates. |
