The pH was 13. 5.75 g (36 mmol) of bromine was added dropwise over 60 minutes while stirring the mixture under heat at 40° C. in a water bath. After the completion of dropwise addition, the reaction was further performed at the same temperature for 3 hours, and the reaction was complete. The pH when the reaction was complete was 7 to 8. Hexafluoroacetone hydrate was obtained at a starting material conversion of 64% with a selectivity of 99% or higher.
