  2. Hydrogen fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_fluoride

    Hydrogen fluoride (fluorane) is an inorganic compound with chemical formula H F. ... 1,1-Difluoroethane is produced by adding HF to acetylene using mercury as a catalyst.

  3. Hydrofluoric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrofluoric_acid

    Hydrofluoric acid is a solution of hydrogen fluoride (HF) in water.Solutions of HF are colorless, acidic and highly corrosive.A common concentration is 49% (48-52%) but there are also stronger solutions (e.g. 70%) and pure HF has a boiling point near room temperature.

  4. Linear alkylbenzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_alkylbenzene

    Hydrogen fluoride (HF) and aluminium chloride (AlCl 3) are the two major catalysts for the alkylation of benzene with linear mono-olefins. The HF-based process is commercially dominant; however, the risk of releasing HF (a poisonous substance) into the environment became a concern particularly after the Clean Air Act Amendment.

  5. Fluorination with aminosulfuranes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorination_with_amino...

    Attack of the hydroxyl group of the substrate on sulfur and elimination of hydrogen fluoride lead to an alkoxyaminosulfur difluoride intermediate. Nucleophilic attack by fluoride, either by an S N 1 [5] or S N 2 [6] pathway, leads to the product. Although clean configurational inversion has been observed in a number of chiral alcohols ...

  6. Difluoromethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Difluoromethane

    Difluoromethane is primarily synthesized via batch processes, by the reaction of dichloromethane and hydrogen fluoride (HF), in the liquid phase using SbCl 5 as a catalyst. [4] Due to hydrogen fluoride's hazardous properties, a new process (based on the same reaction) was developed.

  7. Fluoroantimonic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoroantimonic_acid

    Fluoroantimonic acid is a mixture of hydrogen fluoride and antimony penta­fluoride, containing various cations and anions (the simplest being H 2 F + and SbF − 6).This mixture is a superacid stronger than pure sulfuric acid, by many orders of magnitude, according to its Hammett acidity function.

  8. Activated alumina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activated_alumina

    Activated alumina is used for a wide range of adsorbent and catalyst applications including the adsorption of catalysts in polyethylene production, in hydrogen peroxide production, as a selective adsorbent for many chemicals including arsenic, fluoride, in sulfur removal from fluid streams (Claus Catalyst process).

  9. 2,2-Dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,2-Dichloro-1,1,1-trifluo...

    2,2-Dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane can be produced by reacting tetrachloroethylene with hydrogen fluoride in the gas phase. This is an exothermic reaction and requires a catalyst: This is an exothermic reaction and requires a catalyst:
