Abstract

A production method of cis-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene according to the present invention includes the steps of: subjecting 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane to dehydrofluorination to form a reaction mixture (A) containing cis-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene and unreacted 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane; distilling the reaction mixture (A) to separate the trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene from the reaction mixture (A) and collect a reaction mixture (B) containing the cis-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene and the 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane; and reacting the reaction mixture (B) with a base and thereby obtaining the cis-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene from the reaction mixture (B). This production method enables efficient production of high-purity cis-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene and thus has industrial advantages.
