Abstract
Chlorinated hydrocarbons, e.g., 1,2-dichloroethane, are prepared by heterogeneously oxychlorinating a hydrocarbon with an oxygen-containing gas and gaseous hydrochloric acid in a fluidized bed containing admixture of (i) a catalytically effective amount of an oxychlorination catalyst, (ii) diluent particles of at least one catalytically and chemically inert solid material, and (iii) copper powder or a powdered copper compound.
