Introduction | M-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) is a carboxylic acid derivative, is a white powder Crystal, almost insoluble in water, soluble in ethanol, ethers, soluble in chloroform, dichloroethane. It is stable against heat, and the annual decomposition rate at room temperature is 1% or less. The rate of decomposition is accelerated in the liquid state. |
application field | M-chloroperoxybenzoic acid is an oxidant commonly used in organic synthesis, which can oxidize olefins, carbonyl compounds, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, selenium, iodine compounds, imines, alkanes, active methylene, alkenyl silanes, etc., are widely used in chemical industry, medicine, agricultural chemicals and other fields. |
preparation method | a method for preparing M-chloroperoxybenzoic acid by phase transfer catalysis, 3.91G of M-chlorobenzoic acid is dissolved in of chloroform, add 158 g5%(mass fraction, the same below)(pH = 1) of acidic potassium permanganate aqueous solution, and then add 0.97g phase transfer catalyst benzyl triphenylphosphine chloride, in which the molar ratio of M-chlorobenzoic acid to acidic oxidant and catalyst is 1:2:0.1, control the reaction temperature at 15 ℃, reaction 8H, the reaction is finished, extraction, separation of organic phase, anhydrous magnesium sulfate is added to dry, filtration and separation of filter residue, that is, M-chloroperoxybenzoic acid/chloroform solution, the yield was 85.1%. |
refining method | refining of M-chloroperoxybenzoic acid: 1) put the crude M-chloroperoxybenzoic acid into an autoclave, and then dehydrate, the dehydration rate is 85%;2) after dehydration, add 1, 4-dioxane and stir to make the materials fully mixed; 3) fully mix and raise the temperature, control the temperature between -8 ℃, after keeping the temperature for 0.25 hours, add ethanol and slowly raise the temperature, stir, and start to recover ethanol when the temperature reaches 35 ℃; 4) after the ethanol is recovered, cool down to 10 ℃, add stabilizer, after removal of the solvent by centrifugation, it was dried under negative pressure. |
Use | This product contains 80%-85% M-chlorobenzoic acid peroxide, and the rest is m-chlorobenzoic acid. It is widely used in cyclization reaction, Baeyer-Villiger reaction, N-oxidation reaction and S-oxidation reaction. It can be used as a synthetic medicine, pesticide and other fine chemical products of the oxidant; In addition, sometimes also used as a bleaching agent. it can be used as oxidant, bleaching agent, etc. It is widely used in cyclization reaction, such as stereo reaction of carbon-carbon double bond; Baeyer-Villiger oxidation reaction, for example, the reaction of carbonyl compound with peroxyacid to form ester, etc.; N-oxidation reaction, such as cytosine, with which the N-oxide can be obtained in 21.4% and 41% yields, respectively. It can also be used as a synthetic medicine, pesticide and other fine chemical products, the use of oxidants; In addition, sometimes also used as a bleaching agent. |
production method | in a polyethylene container, add 1.5g of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, 36g of sodium hydroxide, 30% of water, 90ml of hydrogen peroxide, 450ml of dioxane and ice, the temperature was lowered to 15 ° C. Under vigorous stirring, 52.5g of M-chlorobenzoyl chloride was added, and ice was added to maintain the temperature below 25 ° C. After 15min of reaction, 20% of cold sulfuric acid was added. After allowing to stand, the organic layer was separated, filtered, and the filtrate was distilled off of the solvent (high vacuum distillation) to give 51g of 3-chloroperbenzoic acid. |
