Process for producing isopropyl chloride.

摘要

The present invention is an industrially advantageous process for producing isopropyl chloride in which the catalytic activity can be maintained under a milder reaction condition than in the conventional processes, and which requires no special reactor. Propylene and hydrogen chloride are reacted in a gas phase in the presence of iron or a halogenated aluminum oxide (preferably, aluminum oxide reacted with hydrogen chloride). Preferably, the reaction temperature is 20 to 100 DEG C, and the reaction pressure is 1013 to 3039 hPa (absolute pressure).
