PROCESSES FOR PREPARING PENTACHLOROPROPANE AND TETRACHLOROPROPENE FROM DICHLOROPROPENE

A processes for preparing 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropene, 2,3,3,3-tetrachloropropene, or a mixture thereof from 1,3-dichloropropene. The process may include a two successive chlorination and dehydrochlorination reactions. In a first chlorination reaction 1,3-dichloropropene is reacted with a chlorination agent to form a first chlorination reaction product including 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropane. This first chlorination reaction product is reacted with a dehydrochlorination reagent in a first dehydrochlorination reaction to form a first dehydrochlorination reaction product including a trichloropropene. The trichloropropene containing reaction product is reacted with a chlorination agent in a second chlorination reaction to form a second chlorination reaction product including at least one of 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane or 1,1,2,2,3-pentachloropropane. This reaction product is reacted with a dehydrochlorination reagent in a second dehydrochlorination reaction to form a second dehydrochlorination reaction product having 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropene or a 2,3,3,3-tetrachloropropene.

PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PROPANES AND/OR PROPENES

Processes for the production of chlorinated propanes and/or propenes are provided. The present processes make use of methylacetylene, a by-product in the production of ethylene and/or propylene, as a low cost starting material, alone or in combination with propadiene, propene and/or propane. In the latter embodiments, the processes may also be utilized to provide a substantially pure stream of propane.

PROCESS FOR PREPARING 2-CHLORO-3,3,3-TRIFLUOROPROPENE

The present invention provides a process for preparing 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene including subjecting, in the absence of a catalyst, at least one chlorine-containing compound selected from the group consisting of chloropropane represented by formula (1): CClX2CHClCH2Cl, wherein each X is the same or different and each represents Cl or F, chloropropene represented by formula (2): CClY2CCl=CH2, wherein each Y is the same or different and each represents Cl or F, and chloropropene represented by formula (3): CZ2=CClCH2Cl, wherein each Z is the same or different and each represents Cl or F, to a reaction with hydrogen fluoride under heating in a gas phase. According to the present invention, 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HCFC-1233xf) can be effectively prepared by an easy and economically advantageous process that is suitable for industrial scale production.
