The mixture was heated at 80° C. for 5 hours. After cooling, the reaction product was poured slowly into a mixture of ice and sodium chloride, with vigorous stirring, and the organic phase was then separated immediately from the aqueous phase. A mixture of 326 g of tetrachlorocyclobutenone, 25 g of hexachlorocyclobutene and 23 g of hexachloro-1,3-butadiene was obtained. The selectivity of the reaction was thus 90.5% of theory with a conversion of 92% of theory.
