1,2-Diaminobenzene, 1,2-Phenylenediamine, OPD - Reference Information
| phenylenediamine | phenylenediamine is the simplest aromatic diamine. There are 3 isomers, namely o-phenylenediamine, m-phenylenediamine, and p-phenylenediamine. P-phenylenediamine, also known as Usol, is a colorless crystal, which quickly oxidizes into black in the air. Boiling point 267 ℃. Soluble in water, ethanol, ether. Used as a raw material or intermediate for dyes, rubber vulcanization accelerator, developer in the photography industry, fur dye and hair dye. Those who have more contact are hair dyes, barbers and frequent hair dyes. It can enter the human body through the skin. The oxidized intermediate has different degrees of sensitization, which can cause eczema-like or lichen-like dermatitis, which mostly occurs in the skin folds of the face, neck and forearm, such as the corners of the mouth, the corners of the eyes and the nostrils. And other parts are easily damaged. Inhalation of its dust can cause bronchial asthma. The symptoms of oral poisoning are similar to those of aniline poisoning. Mainly take symptomatic treatment. O-phenylenediamine is also called 1, 2-diaminobenzene, 1, 2-phenylenediamine. Those precipitated from water are white to light yellow leaf-like crystals, and those precipitated from chloroform are prismatic crystals. It is easy to change color when exposed to the air, from white to yellow, brown, purple, and finally black. Relative density 1.2698. Melting point 103~104 ℃. Boiling point 256~258 ℃. Slightly soluble in cold water (4.15 at 35 ℃), soluble in hot water (733 at 81 ℃), ethanol, ether, chloroform and benzene. It reacts with inorganic acids to form water-soluble salts; the aqueous solution reacts with carbon disulfide to form 2-mercaptobenzimidazole; it reacts with carbon dioxide under pressure to form benzimidazolone. This product is toxic. After inhalation, it causes visual impairment, contacts with the skin, causes inflammation, enters the eyes, and also causes inflammation. Rat oral LD501070mg/kg. m-phenylenediamine is a rhomboid crystal, which is rapidly oxidized to yellowish brown in the air. Specific gravity 1.139. Melting point 62.8 ℃, boiling point 284 ℃. Soluble in water, alcohol, ketone, etc. Used in dye chemical industry, and used as curing agent for plastics, etc. It can enter the human body from the respiratory tract, skin and gastrointestinal tract. Acute poisoning can occur methemoglobinemia, liver damage and hemolytic anemia. fig. 1 shows the chemical structural formulas of three isomers of phenylenediamine, o-phenylenediamine, m-phenylenediamine and p-phenylenediamine. |

Figure 2 shows the oxidation reaction of o-phenylenediamine. Figure 3 shows the condensation reaction of o-phenylenediamine. Colorless monoclinic crystal, with darker color in air and daylight. Slightly soluble in cold water, more soluble in hot water, easily soluble in ethanol, ether and chloroform. |
| toxicity | o-phenylenediamine is moderately toxic and often causes poisoning due to dust inhalation or skin absorption (the latter is the most common phenomenon). It has a strong irritating effect on the skin, can cause severe acute rash eczema, and has scab skin; inhalation of dust can cause rhinitis, bronchitis, frequent fever, causing unique asthma and vagus nerve tension due to tracheal inflammation. M-phenylenediamine can cause changes in high-iron hemoglobin, while p-phenylenediamine can cause bronchial asthma and allergic dermatitis. |

| production method | o-phenylenediamine is obtained by sodium sulfide reduction method or catalytic hydrogenation reduction method using o-nitroaniline as raw material. 21% sodium sulfide solution and o-nitroaniline are added into the reduction pot, the temperature is raised to 90 ℃, the temperature is closed to 105-110 ℃, the pressure is raised to 0.1-0.2MPa, the temperature is stirred and reduced for 5 hours, the temperature is lowered to below 40 ℃, and the temperature is filtered. The filter cake is heated and melted, distilled under reduced pressure, and the fraction at 140-210 ℃(7.89kPa) is collected as o-phenylenediamine with a yield of 70-80%. The hydrogenation process is carried out in an autoclave, the reaction temperature is 95-105 ℃, the pressure is about 2MPa, and the hydrogen reaction is carried out under the action of nickel catalyst for about 1h until the hydrogen pressure does not drop. The yield of o-phenylenediamine is above 97%. There are several preparation methods. The reduction method of o-nitroaniline and sodium sulfide uses o-nitroaniline and sodium sulfide solution to react at a pressure of 98~196kPa and a reaction temperature of 105~110 ℃, or at a reaction temperature of 120~130 ℃ and normal pressure for 3~4h to obtain o-phenylenediamine. The o-nitroaniline hydrogenation reduction method uses o-nitroaniline as raw material, Laney nickel as catalyst, controls the temperature in an autoclave to 95~105 ℃, continuously passes hydrogen until the pressure does not drop, and stirs the product under 1.960 MPa pressure. Among the above two preparation methods, the purity of the product obtained by sodium sulfide reduction method is higher, the process route is more mature, and more domestic factories use this method to produce o-phenylenediamine. However, this method has poor labor protection conditions and more wastewater. However, there are still some problems in the process of catalytic hydrogenation, and industrialization needs further improvement. In addition, there is o-dichlorobenzene ammonolysis. Many units in China have conducted research, but they have not yet been industrialized. |
