Use | 3, 4-dimethylaniline is an intermediate of the herbicide dimethopentole, and is also an intermediate of pharmaceutical vitamin B2. It is an intermediate of vitamin B2 in medicine and can also be used as a dye intermediate. for the production of vitamin B2, can also be used for the synthesis of dyes |
production method | 2-chloromethyl-4-nitrotoluene was prepared by chloromethylation of p-nitrotoluene with dichloromethyl ether in a yield of 95%; the catalyst was then used to catalyze the hydrogenation at 35-30 ° C. And 3.5-4MPa to give 3, 4-dimethylaniline. Another method uses 3, 4-dimethylacetophenone as the starting material. With hydroxylamine hydrochloride, Polyphosphoric acid reaction, the final hydrolysis of 3,4-dimethyl aniline. The preparation method is obtained by chloromethylating p-nitrotoluene as a raw material, followed by hydrogenation, reduction and dechlorination. Add dichloromethyl ether, P-nitrotoluene and chlorosulfonic acid in the reaction kettle, stir the reaction at 15~20 ℃, then hydrolyze and filter, wash the filter cake to obtain 2-chloromethyl-4-nitrotoluene, dissolve 2-chloromethyl-4-nitrotoluene in ethanol, add Raney nickel, first replace the air in the reactor with nitrogen, then pass hydrogen, control temperature 35~50 ℃, pressure 3.4~3.9 MPa, after the hydrogen gas is passed through and the ethanol is recovered by distillation, sodium hydroxide is added for alkalization, and then the product is obtained by steam distillation. 3, 4-dimethylaniline can also be prepared from O-xylene and the starting material. Dissolve O-xylene in carbon disulfide, add anhydrous aluminum trichloride as catalyst, then add acetyl chloride Dropwise, add Dropwise, react at 90 ℃ for 30min, then add hydrochloric acid and pour into human ice water, separate the aqueous solution, the extract was extracted with ether, washed with water, dried, distilled off, and distilled under reduced pressure to give 3, 4-dimethylacetophenone. Then 3, 4-dimethylacetophenone was added to the mixture of hydroxylamine hydrochloride, water, potassium acetate and methanol at 40 ℃, and then refluxed for 2H in a water bath, poured into water, stirred, upon cooling, crystals were precipitated, filtered, washed with water, and recrystallized from petroleum ether to give 2-(3, 4-dimethylphenyl) glyoxime. Then the oximate and polyphosphoric acid were heated in water bath for 5~10min, then exotherm was started, and the mixture was kept at 120 ℃ for 15min, and then recrystallized from dilute ethanol to obtain acetyl 3, 4-dimethylaniline, then refluxed with sulfuric acid and ethanol for 1.5h, concentrated to half under reduced pressure, added alkali to alkali, extracted with ether, dried, and distilled off ether to obtain the finished product. |
