Use | tert-butyl isothiocyanate (iso-ester), an intermediate of the insecticide Buprofezin, for the synthesis of Buprofezin intermediate 1-isopropyl-3-tert-butylthiourea. |
production method | the preparation method is the reaction of tert-butyl alcohol and ammonium thiocyanate to produce tert-butyl thiocyanate, then in the presence of the catalyst, the conversion of tert-butyl isothiocyanate. Reaction equation:(CH3)3COH NH4SCN HCl → [Δ](CH3)3CSCN NH4Cl H2O(CH3)3CSCN [catalyst] → [isomerization](CH3)3CNCS solid ammonium thiocyanate was added to the reactor, tert-butyl alcohol and water were then evacuated. Hydrochloric acid was pumped into the hydrochloric acid metering and dropping tank, stirred and heated, hydrochloric acid was added dropwise at 75 ° C. For 2-3H, and then the reaction was maintained for 4-5H after dropping. It was then cooled to room temperature and allowed to stand for stratification. After the oil layer is washed twice, it is pumped into the intermediate storage tank, separated and purified water, then pumped into the indexing reaction vessel, added with Catalyst, stirred, reacted at 40-50 ℃ for 4H, and the resultant material is subjected to vacuum distillation, tert-butyl isothiocyanate was obtained. |
