Use | N-(2-methyl-6-ethyl) phenyl chloroacetamide is an intermediate of the herbicides acetochlor, metolachlor, and metachlor. |
production method | its preparation method is to add xylene and chloroacetic acid to the reaction kettle, heat and dissolve, move to another reaction kettle, add 2-methyl -6-ethylaniline, stir and mix well, add phosphorus trichloride dropwise, heat up reaction, add water, stand for separation, send phosphorous acid waste liquid to three wastes for treatment, and move the material liquid to the crystallization kettle for crystallization, filtered products. |
