ABSTRACT:
Trifluoroacetic acid is easily formed by hydrolysis of 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane with water in the presence of a catalyst comprising an inorganic metal compound, preferably a chloride of Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu or Zn. Preferably the hydrolysis reaction is carried out as a vapor phase contact reaction at 200.degree.-400.degree. C., using 5-15 moles of water per mole of trichlorotrifluoroethane.
