Abstract

The invention concerns a process for the preparation of chlorinated derivatives of pyridine compounds by a chlorination reaction of the corresponding pyridine compounds with molecular chlorine, carried out in the gaseous phase by means of bis(trichloromethyl)sulfone as a free radical initiator. The obtained chlorinated derivatives of pyridine compounds, such as 2,6-dichloropyridine, can be used as chemical intermediates.
