Name: To [replace] MW Formula:
The third digit is the number of Fluorine atoms. or used as:
Any remaining locations are understood to be filled with Chlorine atoms, except R 11 137 CCl3F
compounds ending with B contain Bromine atoms; …B2 has two Bromine atoms, etc. R 12 121 CCl2F2
Lower-case suffixes represent progressively unbalanced structures. R 12B1 Extinguishant 164 CBrClF2 Halon 1211
For example: R 142b is CClF2CH3, with a molecular weight of 100.5. The R 142 R 13 104 CClF3
compounds are structured as follows:
R 13B1 Extinguishant 148 CBrF3 Halon 1301
R 14 88 CF4
R 142 would be H F
R 22 86 CHClF2
Cl – C – C – H a relatively balanced structure.

R 32 52 CH2F2
F H R 50 16 CH4 Methane
R 142a would be Cl – C – C – F an unbalanced (asymmetrical) structure.
