Abstract

A mixture containing hydrogen fluoride and 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoro-2,3-dichloropropane is subjected to distillation to form an azeotropic composition of 85 to 95 mol % of hydrogen fluoride and 15 to 5 mol % of 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoro-2,3-dichloropropane, and the azeotropic composition is liquid-separated to form a lower liquid phase. Then, an azeotropic composition is withdrawn from the lower liquid phase by distillation, whereby 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoro-2,3-dichloropropane is obtained. Without formation of an aqueous solution of diluted hydrofluoric acid, 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoro-2,3-dichloropropane is obtained which is substantially free of hydrogen fluoride.
