Look at this

http://www.duracool.com/

I understand it is a drop-in replacement for R12, R134, etc, Is compatible
with all refrigerant oils, and is organic (natural, not made by chemical
construction).

I think it would  be some kind of  propane, butane, methane, etc.

They do address the flamability issue as it relates to the small amount used
in on- road air conditioners. Not a problem. You would have some difficulty
getting it lit, and then it might burn at the source of the leak for a
minute or so.

If you have ever "discharged" a sysem into the air ( I broke a line lifting
the engine out of the car) it does not hiss very long.
