HFC-125 was assessed for the potential to be metabolized to trifluoroacetic acid in liver, in comparison with other halogenated-ethanes. Male Fisher rats were exposed to halothane, HCFC- 124, HFC-125, HCFC-123 and HFC-134a. At the end of the exposure, animals were placed in metabolism cages and urinary trifluoroacetic acid excretion was measured. The presence of trifluoroacetylated-hepatic protein was assessed by means of SDS-PAGE and immunoblotted with anti-TFA-protein serum. The potential to form trifluoroacetylated-hepatic protein has the following decreasing order: Halothane . HCFC-123 >> HCFC-124 > HFC-125. TFA-proteins were not detected in samples from rats exposed to HFC-134a. 19F-NMR analysis of urinary TFA excretion confirmed the previous order of reactivity. The increased fluorination on the dihalomethyl group (- CX2H) decreases the metabolism of these compounds in vivo. HFC-125 showed a lower potential to form TFA in liver when compared to other halogenated ethanes.
IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Pentafluoroethane (HFC-125) is a colorless gas. More than 99% of HFC-125 produced worldwide used as a blend component for commercial refrigeration and air conditioning systems. The use as a fire-extinguishing agent in total flooding systems is another application of HFC-125. Minor applications include the use of HFC-125 in plastic foam blowing and as a solvent in special applications. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: A chromosomal aberration test was carried out in human lymphocytes exposed up to 700,000 ppm (3,436,000 mg/cu m) HFC-125 for 3, 24 and 48 hours, with and without metabolic activation. This study gave clearly negative results. ANIMAL STUDIES: Rats (males and females) were exposed to 800,000 ppm (3,927,000 mg/cu m) HFC-125 in atmosphere for 4 hours. No mortality was observed within 14 days after the exposure. During the exposure, clinical signs typical of an anesthetic effect, such as abnormal respiration and ataxic gait, were observed. These effects disappeared within 1 hour after the end of the exposure period. Cardiac sensitization potential of HFC-125 following adrenaline injection was studied in beagle dogs. Two dogs exposed respectively to 200,000 and 300,000 ppm HFC-125 showed fatal ventricular fibrillation. In 13-week study, groups of male and female rats were exposed to 0, 5,000, 15,000 and 50,000 ppm (0, 24.544, 73,632 and 245,440 mg/cu m) HFC-125 (6 hrs/day, 5 days/week). Additional groups of male and female rats were designated for a 4-week recovery period. No mortality was found at any dose. Pregnant female rabbits were exposed to levels of 0, 5,000, 15,000 or 50,000 ppm (0, 24.544, 73,632 and 245,440 mg/cu m) for 6 hrs/day during the gestation days 6-18 and sacrificed on day 29 of gestation. There was no evidence of any treatment-related morphological change or of increased incidence of visceral and skeletal anomalies or variants. Pregnant female rats were exposed to levels of 0, 5,000, 15,000 or 50,000 ppm (0, 24.544, 73,632 and 245,440 mg/cu m) for 6 hrs/day during the gestation days 6-15 and sacrificed on day 20 of gestation. No statistically-significant differences in the incidence of anomalies and variants were observed during visceral and skeletal examination of fetuses among the control and the treated groups. An erythrocyte micronucleus test was performed in mice. No significant changes were observed in the ratio of polychromated to mature cells among the control group and the groups treated with HFC-125. A cytogenetic assay for the study of chromosomal aberrations was carried out in Chinese hamster ovary cells exposed to concentrations up to 700,000 ppm (3,436,000 mg/cu m) for 4 hours and up to 600,000 ppm (2,945,000 mg/cu m) for 24 and 48 hours, with and without metabolic activation. Positive results were observed only after 48 hours of exposure to 600,000 ppm HFC-125 in the absence of metabolic activation. However, the increased incidence of chromosomal aberration, observed under this experimental condition was concurrent with clear evidence of cytotoxicity. HFC-125 up to 200,000 ppm (982,000 mg/cu m) was tested in 2 strains of Salmonella typhimurium, with and without metabolic activation. Negative results were obtained with both strains.

... In persons who are intoxicated with fluorocarbons, steps can be taken to lessen the risk of arrhythmias. ... Before evaluation at the hospital, patients should be advised to avoid strenuous exercise. In the hospital, patients can be placed in a quiet, nonthreatening environment and sedated if necessary. If hypoxic, oxygen should be administered and metabolic abnormalities corrected. Sympathomimetic drugs should be avoided. Ventricular arrhythmias are best treated with beta-blocking agents. /Fluorocarbons/
/SRP:/ Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. /Halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons and related compounds/
... Main factor affecting fate of fluorocarbons is body fat, where they are concentrated & slowly released into blood @ concn that should not cause any risk of cardiac sensitization. /Fluorocarbons/
Oral absorption is rapid but less complete than pulmonary absorption. Skin absorption is insignificant, except in patients with skin breakdown (e.g., burns, ulcers, severe ichthyosis). Increased metabolic rate can lead to greater inhalational absorption as well. Peak blood levels occur soon after inhalation but occur in 1 to 2 hours after oral administration. The chemicals distribute to tissues with high blood flow (e.g., brain, heart, liver, kidney) and then to adipose tissue, where the highest chemical concentrations are typically found. Halogenated hydrocarbons are metabolized in the liver by cytochrome P-450 oxidation. Partial glutathione conjugation may occur. Halogenated solvents can be excreted unchanged through the lungs. Elimination half-lives can be increased because of either prolonged exposure or hepatic dysfunction. Prolonged exposure allows more chemical to be stored in the adipose tissue, which serves as a source of continued release. /Halogenated Hydrocarbons - Halogenated Solvents/
Fluorocarbon compounds are lipid-soluble and thus are generally well absorbed through lung. Absorption after ingestion is 35 to 48 times lower than after inhalation. ... Fluorocarbons are eliminated by way of lung. /Fluorocarbon compounds/
Sprague Dawley rats were exposed to 1,000, 5,000 and 50,000 ppm (4,900, 24,500 and 245,000 mg/cu m) HFC-125 for 6 hours in individual inhalation chambers. Absorption was calculated by measuring the decrease of HFC-125 concentration in atmosphere within the period of exposure. Results indicated a slight uptake at the end of the exposure period. Due to the low absorption of HFC-125, kinetic constants of uptake and metabolism were not calculated.

Methane is used as the selective dehydrating agent for the production of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-1-propene (R1234yf) from 2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propanol. Supported transition metal catalysts are prepared and used for this reaction with high activity. Almost 58% selectivity to R1234yf is obtained at an alcohol conversion level of 60% using unsupported Ni-mesh as the catalyst. Pd and Pt show almost similar level of conversion; however, the selectivity to the desired product is low. The activity of the metal catalyst was found to be a function of the type of support material, activated carbon showing better activity than alumina. Different important process parameters such as temperature, pressure, and contact time are studied to optimize the process. High pressure and temperature are deleterious to the rate of 1234yf formation; yet, the highest yield to 1234yf is obtained while performing a reaction at 494° C. with a contact time of 23 sec.

placement of fluorine substituents in the chiral ligand. This approach has led to a new, second-generation family of chiral oxazaborolidinium cationic species which can be used to effect many Diels-Alder reactions in >95% yield and >95% ee usingcatalyst loadings at the 1-2 mol % level. The easy recovery of the chiral ligand makes the application of these new catalysts especially attractive for large-scale
