Production method | It is obtained by diazotization and reduction of 3-bromo-4-aminotoluene. The mixture of 95% ethanol, concentrated sulfuric acid and 3-bromo-4-aminotoluene was stirred and cooled to 10 ℃, and sodium nitrite solution was added to keep the reaction temperature not exceeding 10 ℃. After adding, continue stirring for 20min. Add copper powder washed with ether, heat carefully, stop heating after the reaction starts, and release nitrogen vigorously to generate acetaldehyde. When the reaction is relaxed, heat appropriately to make the reaction complete. Then steam distillation is performed until the oil-free substance is steamed out. The organic phase is separated from the distillate and washed with 10% sodium hydroxide, water, concentrated sulfuric acid and 5% sodium carbonate solution in turn. Drying, filtering and distillation with anhydrous calcium chloride, collecting 180-183 ℃(99.75kPa) fractions to obtain colorless pure products with a yield of more than 50%. |
