Description

Tetrafluoroethane, also known as Freon-12, is a chlorofluorocarbon that has been identified as a potent greenhouse gas. Tetrafluoroethane is a byproduct of the industrial production of fluorochemicals, and its disposal in landfill sites has led to soil contamination. 1,2-Dichloro-2-iodo-1,1,2-trifluoroethane (CIF) is a halogenated hydrocarbon that can be synthesized from tetrafluoroethane using an electrochemical process. CIF is used as a catalyst for telomerization reactions such as the synthesis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The efficiency of this reaction increases with higher temperatures and lower potentials. This is due to the increased ionization energy which leads to more efficient electron transfer. The reaction mechanism for the telomerization of furan with ethylene glycol with CIF as catalyst at high
