The present invention relates to a novel process for the preparation of a nitrogen containing biopolymer-based catalyst and to the novel nitrogen containing biopolymer-based catalysts obtainable by this process. In particular, the invention relates to a novel nitrogen containing biopolymer-based catalyst comprising metal particles and at least one nitrogen containing carbon layer. The invention also relates to the use of a nitrogen containing biopolymer-based catalyst in a hydrogenation process, preferably in a process for hydrogenation of nitroarenes, nitriles or imines; in a reductive dehalogenation process of C—X bonds, wherein X is Cl, Br or I, preferably in a process for dehalogenation of organohalides or in a process for deuterium labelling of arenes via dehalogenation of organohalides; or in an oxidation process. Further, the invention relates to a metal complex with the nitrogen containing biopolymer, wherein the metal is a transition metal selected from the group consisting of manganese, ruthenium, cobalt, rhodium, nickel, palladium and platinum, and wherein the nitrogen containing biopolymer is selected from chitosan, chitin and a polyamino acid.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a novel method for producing a difluoromethylene compound, in particular, a simple method for producing a difluoromethylene compound. This problem is solved by a method for producing a difluoromethylene compound (I) containing at least one —CF.sub.2— moiety, the method comprising step A of allowing IF.sub.5 and a disulfide compound (III) of the formula: R.sup.A—S—S—R.sup.A (wherein R.sup.A, in each occurrence, independently represents aryl optionally having at least one substituent or alkyl optionally having at least one substituent) to act on a carbonyl compound (II) containing at least one —C(O)— moiety.

The present invention has the effect of making it possible to produce 1,1,1-trifluoro-2,2-bisarylethane efficiently by a simple procedure by condensing a mixture of fluoral and hydrogen fluoride with an aryl compound under anhydrous conditions. The purity of the 1,1, 1-trifluoro-2, 2-bisarylethane obtained can be raised by a simple purification method such as crystallization or distillation. The obtained 1,1,1-trifluoro-2,2-bisarylethane can be increased in purity by a simple purification method such as crystallization operation or distillation.
