The~e products can be separated by a usual 20method such as distillation.
For the reaction, a radical-generating source such as light, heat or a radical initiator, or a combination thereof, may be used. The radical initiator to be used is not particularly limited so long as it is oil-soluble and may be an azo compound or an organic peroxide as shown in the following example. The azo compound may, ~, ' ;~ ,.

for example, be a,a'-azobisisobutylonitrile (hereinafter referred to simply as AIBN) or 2,2-azobis-2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile (hereinafter referred to simply as ACVN). The organic peroxide may, for example, be di~t-butyl peroxide.
The reaction ratio between chlorine and the starting material may be varied in a wide range. In order to control the chlorination selectively at a stage where only single chlorine is introduced, chlorine is used in a `
low stoichiometrical amount relative to the 2,2-difluoropropane (C3HaClbFC). Whereas, to let all the hydrogen atoms o~ the 2,2-difluoropropane react substantially completely, chlorine is used in an amount larger than stoichiometry relative to total molar amount of the starting material, for exampler in an amount of 2 or more molar times.
The reaction temperature may suitably be chosen depending upon the radical-generating source and is usually from -78 to 450C.
In the present invention, when the reaction is conducted in a liquid phase, a solvent may be employed.
The solvent to be used is not particularly limited so long as it is capable of dissolving the propane as the starting material and the radical initiator if used, and will hardly be chlorinated itself. For example, a halogenated hydrocarbon such as carbon tetrachloride may suitably be used.

There is no specific limitation to the reaction pressure, when the reaction is conducted in a gas phase.
The pressure for the reaction is not particularly limited and may range from reduced pressure to above atmospheric.
5 ~hen the reaction is conducted in a liquid phase, the -pressure is chosen so that the starting material 2,2-difluoropropane can adequately be present in the liquid phase and may vary depending upon the type of the solvent.
In the case o~ a gas phase reaction, chlorine may be introduced into a reactor together with the starting material as in a flow system, or may be charged initially. In the case of a liquid phase reaction, it may also be charged initially, but it is preEerable to ;~
bubble into the liquid phase.
Now, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to Examples~ However, it should be understood that the present invention is by no means restricted by such speciic Examples.
