use | organic synthesis intermediate. It is used to produce the expectorant bromohexylamine hydrochloride. |
production method | add the aqueous solution of carbon tetrachloride, o-nitrotoluene and azobisisobutyronitrile into the reaction tank, stir and heat, dropwise add bromine carbon tetrachloride solution, keep reflux until the dropwise addition is completed, continue reflux for 5-6h, bromination to generate o-nitrobenzyl bromine. |
