| production method | the role of sodium cyanide and concentrated sulfuric acid to hydrocyanic acid, hydrocyanic acid after distillation and purification reaction with acetone to produce acetone cyanohydrin: the raw material, hydrocyanic acid, may also utilize a by-product of acrylonitrile. The laboratory synthesis or reagent production is the same as the above process, and the operation method is as follows: In a 5L three-necked flask, add 500g(9.7mol) A solution of powdered sodium cyanide in 1.2L of water and 12.3 ML (G, mol) of acetone. The flask was placed in an ice bath with vigorous stirring. 2.1L(8.5mol) of 40% sulfuric acid was added slowly when the temperature dropped to 15 °c, and the addition was completed in 3H and maintained at 10-20 °c. After addition of the acid, stirring was continued for 15min. Allow the salt to settle. The resulting acetone cyanohydrin was decanted and separated from the aqueous layer. The aqueous layer was filtered off with sodium cyanide sulfate and washed with acetone. The filtrate and washings were combined and extracted with ether. The extracts were combined with acetone cyanohydrin, which was originally separated. Dry with anhydrous sodium sulfate. Ether and acetone were distilled off on a water bath. The residue was distilled under reduced pressure and a 78-82 °c fraction was collected at 2.0-2.67kPa. The product was produced in the amount of 640-650g and the yield was 77-78%. Product specifications: as an intermediate in the production of organic glass, it is a brown liquid with a content of more than 93%. Raw material consumption quota: sodium cyanide (> 93%)557kg/t, acetone (98%)650kg/t, sulfuric acid (93%)704kg/t. |
