Hexachloropropene is a toxic compound of chlorine and carbon. Its linear formula is CCl3CCl=CCl2.[3]

Hexachloropropene can be produced by the elimination reaction of 1,1,1,2,2,3,3-heptachloropropane by potassium hydroxide in methanol solution.[4]

Hexachloropropene can be used to produce other compounds such as uranium tetrachloride, anhydrous niobium pentachloride and tungsten hexachloride.[5]
