TABLE 2-281 Thermodynamic Properties of R-143a, 1,1,1-Trifluoroethane (Concluded) 

The values in these tables were generated from the NIST REFPROP software (Lemmon, E. W., McLinden, M. O., and Huber, M. L., NIST Standard Reference Database 23 Reference Fluid Thermodynamic and Transport Properties—REFPROP, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Standard Reference Data Program, Gaithersburg, Md., 2002, Version 7.1). The primary source for the thermodynamic properties is Lemmon, E. W., and Jacobsen, R. T., An International Standard Formulation for the Thermodynamic Properties of 1,1,1-Trifluoroethane (HFC-143a) for Temperatures from 161 to 450 K and Pressures to 50 MPa, J. Fhys. Chem. Ref. Data 29(4) 521-552, 2000. Validated equations for the viscosity and thermal conductivity are not currently available for this fluid. 

The estimated uncertainties of properties calculated using the equation of state are 0.1% in density, 0.5% in heat capacities, 0.02% in the speed of sound for the vapor at pressures less than 1 MPa, 0.5% in speed of sound elsewhere, and 0.1% in vapor pressure, except in the critical region.

Trifluoroethanol was first prepared by the catalytic reduction of trifluoroacetic anhydride [407-25-0] (58). Other methods iaclude the catalytic hydrogeaatioa of trifluoroacetamide [354-38-1] (59), the lithium aluminum hydride reductioa of trifluoroacetyl chloride [354-32-5] (60) or of trifluoroacetic acid or its esters (61,62), and the acetolysis of 2-chloro-l,l,l-trifluoroethane [75-88-7] followed by hydrolysis (60). More recently, the hydrogenation of... 

Cyclization. Constmction of ben2otrifluorides from aHphatic feedstocks represents a new technique with economic potential. For example, l,l,l-trichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane [354-58-5] and dimethyl itaconate [617-52-7] form 4-methoxy-6-trifluoromethyl-2JT-pyran-2-one [101640-70-4] which is converted to methyl 3-(trifluoromethyi)ben2oate [2557-13-3] ixh. acetjdene or norbomadiene (125). 

A significant development ia trifluoromethylpyridine synthesis strategy is the use of fluoriaated aUphatic feedstocks for the ring-constmction sequence. Examples iaclude the manufacture of the herbicide dithiopyr, utilising ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoroacetoacetate [372-31-6] CF2COCH2COOC2H (436,437). 2,3-Dichloro-5-trifluoromethylpyridine [69045-84-7], a precursor to several crop-protection chemicals (see Table 15), can be prepared by conversion of l,l,l-trichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane [354-58-5], CF CCl, to 2,2-dichloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropionaldehyde [82107-24-2], CF2CCI2CHO, followed by cycUzation with acrylonitrile [107-13-1] (415). 

Preparation. Thermal elimination of HCl from l-chloro-l,l-difluoroethane (HCFC-142b) [75-68-3] is the principal industrial route to VDF covered by numerous patents (8—19). Dehydrohalogenation of l-bromo-l,l-difluoroethane (20), or 1,1,1-trifluoroethane (HFC-143a) (21—25), or dehalogenation of l,2-dichloro-l,l-difluoroethane (26—28) are investigated alternative routes (see Fluorine compounds, organic-fluorinated aliphatic compounds). 

Halothane. Halothane or Fluothane, 2-bromo-2-chloro-l,l,l-trifluoroethane [151 -67-7] is a colorless Hquid with a pleasant odor. Its lower flammability limit, 4.8% in 70% N2O/30% O2, renders it essentially nonflammable. It has a vapor pressure of 32.5 kPa (244 mm Hg) at 20 °C and is stable to soda lime. However, it is photochemicaHy reactive. 

In the presence of catalysts, trichloroethylene is readily chlorinated to pentachloro- and hexachloroethane. Bromination yields l,2-dibromo-l,l,2-trichloroethane [13749-38-7]. The analogous iodine derivative has not been reported. Fluorination with hydrogen fluoride in the presence of antimony trifluoride produces 2-chloro-l,l,l-trifluoroethane [75-88-7] (8). Elemental fluorine gives a mixture of chlorofluoro derivatives of ethane, ethylene, and butane. 

Photochlorination of tetrachloroethylene, observed by Faraday, yields hexachloroethane [67-72-1]. Reaction with aluminum bromide at 100°C forms a mixture of bromotrichloroethane and dibromodichloroethane [75-81-0] (6). Reaction with bromine results in an equiUbrium mixture of tetrabromoethylene [79-28-7] and tetrachloroethylene. Tetrachloroethylene reacts with a mixture of hydrogen fluoride and chlorine at 225—400°C in the presence of zirconium fluoride catalyst to yield l,2,2-trichloro-l,l,2-trifluoroethane [76-13-1] (CFG 113) (7).
