'''Tetrafluoromethane''', also known as '''carbon tetrafluoride''' or R-14, is the simplest ] (]]<sub>4</sub>).

== Preparation == |
|
|
Tetrafluoromethane is the product when any carbon compound, including carbon itself, is burned in an atmosphere of fluorine. With hydrocarbons, ] is a coproduct. It was first reported in 1926.<ref name="chemelem">{{Greenwood&Earnshaw}}</ref> It can also be prepared by the ] of ], ] or ] with ].

Consequently, {{chem|CF|4}} is prepared on an industrial scale using ]:<ref name=Ull>{{Ullmann|first1=Günter |last1=Siegemund|first2=Werner|last2=Schwertfeger|first3=Andrew|last3= Feiring|first4=Bruce|last4=Smart|first5=Fred |last5=Behr|first6=Herward|last6=Vogel|first7=Blaine|last7=McKusick|title=Fluorine Compounds, Organic|year=2002|doi=10.1002/14356007.a11_349}}</ref> |

|
|
|
===Laboratory synthesis=== |
|
|
Tetrafluoromethane and ] can be prepared in the laboratory by the reaction of ] with fluorine. |
|
|
: SiC + 4 F<sub>2</sub> → CF<sub>4</sub> + SiF<sub>4</sub> |
|
|
|
|
|
==Reactions== |
|
|
Tetrafluoromethane, like other fluorocarbons, is very stable due to the strength of its carbon–fluorine bonds. The bonds in tetrafluoromethane have a ] of 515 kJ⋅mol<sup>−1</sup>. As a result, it is inert to acids and hydroxides. However, it reacts explosively with ]s. ] or combustion of CF<sub>4</sub> produces toxic gases (] and ]) and in the presence of water will also yield ]. |
|
|
|
|
|
It is very slightly soluble in water (about 20 mg⋅L<sup>−1</sup>), but miscible with organic solvents. |
|
|
|
|
|
==Uses== |

|
Tetrafluoromethane is sometimes used as a low temperature ] (R-14). It is used in ] ] alone or in combination with ] as a ] for ], ], and ].<ref name=williams>K. Williams, K. Gupta, M. Wasilik.
