Method for producing 1,1,2-trifluoroethane (hfc-143)

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method for producing HFC-143 that is not expensive, and that is more efficient than conventional methods. Specifically, the present disclosure provides a method for producing 1,1,2-trifluoroethane (HFC-143) that includes contacting at least one chlorine-containing compound selected from the group consisting of 1,1,2-trichloroethane (HCC-140), 1,2-dichloro-1-fluoroethane (HCFC-141), 1,1-dichloro-2-fluoroethane (HCFC-141a), (E,Z)-1,2-dichloroethylene (HCO-1130 (E,Z)), and (E,Z)-1-chloro-2-fluoroethylene (HCFO-1131 (E,Z)) with hydrogen fluoride to perform one or more fluorination reactions, thereby obtaining a reaction gas containing HFC-143, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen fluoride.
