Use | used as solvent and pesticide intermediates, fuel and lubricant additives, coking inhibitors of ethylene cracking furnace and oil refining unit, etc. used as solvents and pesticide intermediates, it is also the main raw material of methanesulfonyl chloride and methanesulfonic acid products. GB 2760-1996 specifies that food brush flavor is allowed to be used. dimethyl disulfide, also known as dimethyl disulfide, is used in the synthesis of the intermediate p-methylthio-m-cresol and p-methylthio-phenol, which is also used as a solvent, purification agent of the catalyst. It is used as a passivating agent for solvent and catalyst, pesticide intermediate, coking inhibitor, etc. Dimethyl disulfide reacts with cresol to form 2-methyl-4-hydroxyanisole, which is then condensed with O,O-dimethylsulfuryl phosphoryl chloride in an alkaline medium to give sesthion. It is a kind of high efficiency and low toxicity organic phosphorus insecticide, which has good control effect on rice borer, soybean borer and fly larvae. It can also be used as a veterinary drug to remove cattle larvae and cattle ticks. |
production method | from the reaction of dimethyl sulfate and sodium disulfide. Sulfur powder was added into the sodium sulfide solution under stirring, and the temperature was raised to 80-90 ℃, the reaction was 1H, and the temperature was lowered to about 30 ℃. Dimethyl sulfate was dropped into the reaction vessel, and the reaction was continued for 2H, and then distilled, after the waste lye is separated, the product is obtained by distillation. dimethyl disulfide is industrially synthesized by the method of dimethyl sulfate. Na2S → Na2S2Na2S2 (CH3)2SO4 → CH3SSCH3 Na2SO4 put solid sodium sulfide and water into the reaction kettle, heat, control temperature 50~60 ℃, dissolve sodium sulfide, then add equimolar sulfur in batch, keep warm for 1H, cool to 45 ℃, start adding dimethyl sulfate Dropwise, keep the reaction temperature between 40~45 ℃, and keep warm for 1H after adding, the product can be distilled out of dimethyl disulfide. In addition, dimethyl disulfide can also be synthesized by a methyl mercaptan method. results from the reaction of iodomethyl magnesium and disulfide chloride. It is formed by the reaction of disodium disulfide and sodium methyl sulfate. Methyl thiosulfate was prepared by the reaction of methyl bromide and sodium thiosulfate, and then heated. |
