The present invention provides a process of manufacture of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene by fluorination of very high purity 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane (HCC-240db) into product 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf), the process comprising the following steps: —step 3 of chlorination of 1,1,3-trichloropropene to produce 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane, comprising: 3-a) contacting the 1,1,3-trichloropropene feedstock with
chlorine in a
reaction zone to produce a reaction mixture containing 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane and 1,1,3-trichloropropene, the
reaction zone being different from the dehydrochlorination zone, and 3-b) treating the reaction mixture obtained in step 3-a) to obtain a 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane (HCC-240db) feedstock; —step 4 of producing 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf), comprising: 4-a) reacting the 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane (HCC-240db) feedstock with HF in the presence or absence of catalyst to produce a reaction mixture comprising at least one compound chosen from HCI, HF, 1,1,1,2,2-
pentafluoropropane (HFC-245cb), 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HCFO-1233xf) and 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf).
