    Question HFC-1234yf HFC-365mfc

    I understood the numbering part of HFC-1234yf or HFC-365mfc.

    But what is the procedure to write the alphabets 'yf,' 'mfc' etc.,

    example
    ----F---F---H
    ----|---|---|
    F - C - C = C
    ----|-------|
    ----F-------H

    This gives HFC-1234
    1> one unsaturateed carbon - carbon bond
    2> three carbon atoms -1
    3> two hydrogen atoms +1
    4> four fluorine atoms
    this makes 1234.

    How to determine 'yf'

    For simple substances like HFC-225ca i understand how ca is determined.
    c - denotes decreasing order atoms attached to central carbon atom
    a - based on side carbon atoms


    I didnt have ASHRAE Standard 34. I cant afford $37. Please help.
