In this paper, we prove that every 2-local derivation on several classes of C^*-algebras, such as unital properly infinite, type I or residually finite-dimensional C^*-algebras, is a derivation. We show that the following statements are equivalent: (1) every 2-local derivation on a C^*-algebra is a derivation, (2) every 2-local derivation on a unital primitive antiliminal and no properly infinite C^*-algebra is a derivation. We also show that every 2-local derivation on a group C^*-algebra C^*(𝔽) or a unital simple infinite-dimensional quasidiagonal C^*-algebra, which is stable finite antiliminal C^*-algebra, is a derivation.
