Overview | aromatic nitrile compounds phthalonitrile is a kind of very important organic synthesis intermediates, widely exists in medicine, pesticide, herbicides, pesticides, dyes, fragrances and natural products. Such as 2, 4-dinitro-6-cyanoaniline, which can be used to produce an excellent bright blue diazo dye, as well as the International novel nitrile-based perfume citronitrile with a sharp and strong lemon-like aroma, and the like. |
preparation | phthalonitrile was prepared as follows: NiCl2 · 6H2O(0.05mmol,11.9mg),dppf(0.06mmol,33.3mg),Zn(0.2mmol,13.0mg),DMAP(1.0mmol,122.2mg),Zn(CN)2(0.8mmol,93.9mg), p-chloro anisole (1.0mmol,140.6mg) and 2-chlorobenzonitrile (5.0mL), and then directly into the 60 ° C oil bath reaction, 6h after stopping heating, cool to room temperature, the reaction solution is directly filtered through a short silica gel column, washed with dichloromethane, concentrated, and purified by direct silica gel column chromatography (in view of the fact that most of the product is easy to be removed, in order to avoid the loss of mixing, if there are no special instructions, they are all wet samples.) Eluent: petroleum ether/ethyl acetate = 3:1, the product is a white solid phthalonitrile 106.1mg, yield 83%,1H NMR purity greater than 98%. |
Use | for dyes, pigments and other organic synthesis. widely used in the synthesis of phthalosulfonamide drugs, phthalocyanine pigments and dyes, high thermal resistance polyamide fibers, xylene-based and diisocyanate plastics and desulfurization catalysts, etc. widely used in the synthesis of phthalosulfonamide drugs, phthalocyanine pigments and dyes, high thermal resistance polyamide fibers, xylene-based, diisocyanate plastics and desulfurization catalysts, such as amidation lead compounds; Used in the synthesis of phthalosulfonamide drugs, phthalocyanine pigments and dyes, high thermal resistance polyamide fiber, xylene-based diisocyanate plastic and desulfurization catalyst dye intermediate. Organic Synthesis. |
production method | phthalic acid amide is obtained by reacting phthalimide with ammonia, and phthalonitrile is obtained by dehydration. In addition, the product can be obtained by ammoniating phthalic anhydride and then reacting with phosphorus oxychloride, or by carrying out an ammoxidation reaction of naphthalene pentamine, or by carrying out an ammoxidation reaction between O-xylene and ammonia. |
spontaneous combustion temperature | >580°C |
