Why would this be damaging to the ozone layer? I believe that you need a chlorofluorocarbon to do that. It is the chlorine radical that produces the damage.

google indicates it is used in anesthetics. It is damaging to the ozone layer so I guess other uses are discouraged certainly in large quantities.
Edited comment: Thanks to Andyoptic for pointing out my error. A little research indicates that he is right.
