Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de déshydrohalogénation d'alcanes halogénés, qui consiste à mettre un alcane halogéné à au moins trois atomes de carbone, en contact avec un catalyseur à l'halogénure de terres rares ou à l'oxychlorure de terres rares, dans des conditions de traitement suffisantes pour qu'un alcène ou un alcène halogéné soit produit. Ledit procédé consiste à convertir les alcanes halogénés de faible valeur, qui sont des sous-produits de procédés de chloration industriels, en alcènes et en alcènes halogénés de valeur supérieure. Du 1,2-dichloropropane, par exemple, peut être déhydrochloré et transformé principalement en chlorure d'allyle et 1-chloropropène, une faible quantité de 2-chloropropène de faible valeur étant produite. Le 1,2,3-trichloropropane peut être déshydrochloré et transformé principalement en 1,3-dichloropropène, utiles dans les fumigants de sol.
