Abstract
In the conversion of trichloroethene and tetrachloroethene into dichloroacetyl chloride (DAC) or trichloroacetyl chloride (TAC) by means of oxygen, the reaction mixture is passed several times as a thin film through the reaction zone. The reaction time for achieving a certain conversion is in this way reduced. In the preparation of DAC, a constant content of acid chloride is established in the reaction mixture by removing some of the mixture and working this up by distillation, while the circulating reaction mixture is simultaneously topped up with fresh trichloroethene.
