The results are presented of a study of the electrochemical activation and dehalogenation of geminal (CF3CCl3 ,C F 3CClBr2) and vicinal (CF2ClCFCl2 ,C F 2BrCF2Br, CF2BrCFClBr) Freons and their joint conversion with sulfur and carbon dioxides with the formation of fluorine-containing sulfinic and carbonic acids. The influence of the conditions for carrying out these reactions (structure of the Freons, the electrolysis regime, the nature of the medium, electrode materials, electron transfer mediators, etc.) on their path and the yields of the targeted products are elucidated. We begin this paper by celebrating the 75th birthday of the important physical chemist and excellent human, our instructor and teacher, Academician of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Vice-President of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, and honored director of the L. V. Pisarzhevskii Institute of Physical Chemistry of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, V. D. Pokhodenko, with whom it has been my good fortune to work for more than 40 years, beginning at the student’s bench, and largely thanks to Vitalii Dmitrievich, under his leadership and constant encouragement I understood scientific work and covered the difficult stages of the scientific life. To him I owe my sincere thanks. In continuation many years of close cooperation and daily association with V. D. Pokhodenko I did not cease to be surprised by his natural talent, his broad erudition and his sense of novelty in science, his excellent organization ability, his extremely high output and efficiency, his constant scientific research, initiating and encouragement of the ideas of scientists and co-workers, his great intelligence, sensitivity and delicacy, coupled with an exacting regard for people. V. D. Pokhodenko belongs to the pleiad of those brilliant and prominent scientists for whom scientific phenomena are their basic aims, the principal meaning of life. Thanks to V. D. Pokhodenko, the L. V. Pizarzhevskii Institute of Physical Chemistry, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine has in recent times carried out a wide range of new and timely scientific directions, in particular studies in the fields of the physical chemistry of nano-sized systems and nano-composite materials, nanophase phenomena, nanophotocatalysis,
