Decarboxylation of 150 g of 3,4,5,6-tetrafluorophthalic acid in 500 g of water was effected by following the procedure of Example 1, except that 54.2 g (0.315 mole) of calcium sulfate dihydrate was used as a catalyst and the heating and stirring were carried out at 170° C. for 14 hous [pH 1.37 at 70° C. at the time of charging]. After completion of the reaction, the reaction product was separated by following the procedure, to produce 2,3,4,5-tetrafluorobenzoic acid in a yield of 86.4 mole % as found by the same calculation.
