uses | organic synthesis intermediates for the production of dyes and pharmaceuticals for the manufacture of the drug methylimidazole. used as pharmaceutical intermediates |
production method | is obtained by nitration of p-chlorobenzoic acid. There are several methods for nitrification. (1) P-chlorobenzoic acid and sulfuric acid were added to industrial hydrochloric acid in portions, and after the addition, the reaction was maintained at 50-65 ° C. For 5h and left overnight. The nitrates were then poured into ice water, dried by filtration and washed with water to give a crude product. After dissolving, decolorizing and filtering with ethanol, crystals are precipitated in distilled water and dried to obtain the finished product. (2) P-chlorobenzoic acid was nitrated in concentrated nitric acid with a molar ratio excess of 15 times, and reacted for 6h at 20 °c or less. The yield was 90%. (3) nitration was carried out with a mixed acid at its boiling point using methylene chloride as a solvent. The yield was 97% or more. This product was also obtained from p-chlorotoluene by the following reaction. The nitration reaction was carried out at 55-60 °c for 15min with a yield of 92%. |
