production method
under stirring, anhydrous aluminum trichloride is quickly added into the melted freon 112, kept warm and stirred for 2-3h, then heated to 60-70 ℃, kept warm and filtered, filtrate fractionated, and fraction at 91-92 ℃ is collected to obtain 2, 2-difluorotetrachloroethane. 70% yield.
