Procedure: Preparation of 3,5-dichloro-4-fluorobenzonitrile. During a 10-hour period a solution of 216 parts of 4-fluoro-3,5-dinitrobenzonitrile (prepared as in step (a), above) in 1500 parts of carbon tetrachloride, is vaporized by passing through a tubular nickel reactor maintained at about 350° C. and the vapors passed through a second nickel tubular reactor, maintained at about 350° C., and mixed therein with a stream of chlorine at a molar ratio of Cl2 :4-fluoro-3,5-dinitrobenzonitrile of about 6.0. The exiting vapors are collected, condensed and the condensate treated with MgSO4. The desired product, 3,5-dichloro-4-fluorobenzonitrile is isolated by vacuum distillation. by passing through a tubular nickel reactor the vapors passed through a second nickel tubular reactor maintained at about 350° C. mixed The exiting vapors are collected condensed
