During this step a strong evolution of gas occurs. After the addition has been completed, the mixture is heated for 1-2 hours to boiling (79° C.) until the evolution of sulfur dioxide and hydrogen chloride has ceased (bubble counter at the cooler outlet). Thereafter the reaction mixture is distilled over a 10 cm column, thus obtaining 604 g (5.07 mol) of unreacted thionyl chloride and 359 g (1.48 mol) of 2,3,4,4-tetrachloro-2-butenoic acid chloride; b.p. 102° C./26 mbar; nD20 =1.5478. Yield: 95% of theory.
