Description: HYDROCHLOROFLUOROCARBONS HAVING OH RATE CONSTANTS WHICH DO NOT CONTRIBUTE SUBSTANTIALLY TO OZONE DEPLETION AND GLOBAL WARMING BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a class of hydrochlorofluorocarbons which have 3 to 5 carbon atoms, have 1 to 2 chlorine atoms, and have OH rate constants from about 8 to about 25 cm 3 /molecule/secx10 " . in response to the need for stratosphericaliy safe materials, substitutes have been developed and continue to be developed. Research Disclosure 14623 (June 1978) reports that 1 , 1 -dichloro- 2,2,2-trifluoroethane (known in the art as HCFC- 123) is a useful solvent for degreasing and defluxing substrates. In the EPA "Findings of the Chlorofluorocarbon Chemical Substitutes International Committee", EPA-600/9-88-009 (April 1988), it was reported that HCFC- 123 and 1 ,1-dichloro-1-f luoroethane (known in the art as HCFC- 141b) have potential as replacements for CFC-113 as cleaning agents. The problem with these substitutes is that they have a long atmospheric lifetime as determined by their reaction with OH radicals in the troposphere. Table I below contains the OH rate constants and corresponding atmospheric lifetimes for these substitutes. In Table I, Exp K 0H stands for experimental K 0H rate constant, Est K 0H stands for estimated K 0H rate constant, Exp Life stands for experimental lifetime, and Est Life stands for estimated lifetime. The unit on the rate constant is cm 3 /molecule/ sec x 10- 14 and the unit on the lifetime is years. TABLE I It would be desirable to have substitutes with OH rate constants of at least about 8 cm 3 /molecule/secx10 "14 which equates to an atmospheric lifetime of 12 months or less. If the OH rate constant of a compound is too high, the compound is a VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) because it is so reactive that it forms carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming. Thus, it would be desirable to have substitutes with OH rate constants of 25 crn 3 /rnolecule/secx10 "14 or less which equates to an atmospheric lifetime of at least 4 months. Commonly assigned U.S. Patent 4,947,881 teaches a method of cleaning using hydrochlorofiuoropropanes having 2 chlorine atoms and a difluoromethylene group. European Publication 347,924 published December 27, 1989 teaches hydrochlorofiuoropropanes having a difluoromethylene group. International Publication Number WO 90/08814 published August 9, 1990 teaches azeotropes having at least one hydrochlorofiuoropropane having a difluoromethylene group. A wide variety of consumer parts is produced on an annual basis in the United States and abroad. Many of these parts have to be cleaned during various manufacturing stages in order to remove undesirable contaminants. These parts are produced in large quantities and as a result, substantial quantities of solvents are used to clean them. Thus, substitutes having OH rate constants between about 8 and about 25 cm 3 /molecule/secx10 '14 and which are useful in many applications including as solvents are needed in the art. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Straight chain and branched chain hydrochlorofluorocarbons having 3 to 5 carbon atoms and 1 or 2 chlorine atoms total over 1100 compounds. Out of this over 1100 compounds, I was surprised to find a class of 88 hydrochlorofluorocarbons having OH rate constants from about 8 to about 25 cm 3 /molecule/secx10 "14 . The OH rate constant can be determined by any method known in the art. For example, see Atkinson, "Kinetics and Mechanisms of the Gas-Phase Reactions of the Hydroxyl Radical with Organic Compounds under Atmospheric Conditions", Chem. Rev. 86. 69 (1986) and Taylor et al., "Laser Photolysis/Laser-Induced Fluorescence Studies of Reaction Rates of OH with CH 3 CI, CH 2 CI 2 , and CHCI 3 over an Extended Temperature Range", Int. J. of Chem. Kinetics 21. 829 (1989). The straight chain hydrochlorofluorocarbons having 3 carbon atoms of the present invention are listed in Table II below. The unit on the calculated K 0H is cm 3 /molecule/sec x 10 '14 and the unit on the calculated lifetime is years in Table II.

I discovered this when I compared isomers having the same -CAB- group wherein -CAB- is -CCI 2 -, -CH 2 -, -CCIH-, -CCIF-, and -CHF- as the covered compound. I found that the isomers had OH rate constants less than 8 or greater than 25 cm 3 /molecule/sec x 10 "14 . For example, CFCIHCFHCFCIH and CF 2 CICFHCCIH 2 of the present invention have K 0H values of 19.1 and 8.4 cm 3 /molecule/sec x 10 '14 respectively as shown in Table II.

In contrast, the isomer, CF 3 CFCICH 3 , has a K 0H of 1.8 cm 3 /molecule/sec x 10 "14 as shown in Table VII, and thus, has a long atmospheric lifetime. The isomers, CFH 2 CCI 2 CFH 2 and CH 3 CCI 2 CF 2 H, have K 0H values of 49.33 and 34.14 cm 3 /molecule/secx10 '14 respectively as shown in Table VII and thus, are VOCs.

In contrast, the isomers, CCIH 2 CFHCCIFH and CFH 2 CFHCCI 2 H, have K 0H values of 31.8 and 39.57 cm 3 /molecule/sec x 10 '14 respectively as shown in Table VII, and thus, are VOCs. Additionally, CF 2 HCH 2 CCIH 2 and CFH 2 CH 2 CFCIH of the present invention have K 0H values of 14.99 and 17.8 cm 3 /molecule/sec x 10 " 1 respectively as shown in Table II. In contrast, the isomer, CF 2 CICH 2 CH 3 , has a K OH of 2.9 cm 3 /molecule/sec x 10 "14 as shown in Table VII, and thus, has a long atmospheric lifetime. Additionally, CH 3 CH 2 CFCIH of the present invention has a K QH of 9.98 cm 3 /moiecule/sec x 10 "14 as shown in Table II. In contrast, the isomer, CFH 2 CH 2 CCIH 2 , has a K OH value of 35.8 cm 3 /molecule/sec x 10 "14 as shown in Table VII, and thus, is a VOC.
