You can't, not reliably.
There is an javascript event you can catch (onunload) but it works in IE, but not for FireFox, and there is onbeforeunload which works in Firefox, but there is no simple "do this" which works, guaranteed, for all browsers. To add to that, what if the user unplugs the router, or has a power cut, or goes into a tunnel, or runs out of battery power? What happens if your app crashes before he logs out?

Use the session timeout to log out your user if he hasn't before, and allow your system to work gracefully if a user tries to log in without a matching log out.

Hi,
You can capture browser close button click event using JavaScript and you can call the Logout method in that.
Something like this,
JavaScript
window.onbeforeunload = function() {
// make an Ajax call to server side Logout method.
// In the Logout method you can get/set the success status
}

You can make an Ajax call to a code behind method. Please check the following link,
