ABSTRACT:
A process is disclosed for producing CF.sub.3 CH.sub.2 CF.sub.3 and/or CF.sub.3 CH.dbd.CF.sub.2 from at least one ether compound selected from the group consisting of compounds having the formula (CF.sub.3).sub.2 CHCF.sub.2 OR and compounds having the formula (CF.sub.3).sub.2 C.dbd.CFOR (wherein R is an alkyl group of the formula C.sub.n H.sub.2n+1 and n is an integer from 1 to 6) by contacting the ether compound(s) with water at an elevated temperature of at least about 75.degree. C. The reaction of ether compound(s) with water may be employed in connection with a process for producing tetrafluoroethylene and/or hexafluoropropylene by pyrolysis, where by-product perfluoroisobutylene is reacted with an alkanol to produce the ether compound(s).
