Abstract
The invention relates to the preparation of trifluoroacetyl chloride by catalytic chlorination of trifluoroacetaldehyde with chlorine. Catalysis is performed in the vapor phase in a fixed bed or a fluidized bed reactor with an activated carbon catalyst. Optionally, hydrochloric acid and/or an inert diluent can be present with the reactant without affecting the results of this process.
