It is obtained by oxidation and chlorination of p-xylene. 1. Catalytic oxidation Add p-xylene and cobalt naphthenate to the reaction pot, raise the temperature to 90 ℃ and introduce air, and react at 110-115 ℃ for 20h. Cool to room temperature, filter, wash the cake with p-xylene, dry to obtain p-methylbenzoic acid. 2. Chlorination Add chlorobenzene and p-methylbenzoic acid to the reaction pot, heat to 40 ℃, introduce nitrogen, and stir evenly. When the temperature rises to 60 ℃, stop passing nitrogen, change to passing chlorine, and light at the same time. The temperature reaches 110 ℃ within 1h, and the chlorine is continued at 110-115 ℃, with a total of 8h of chlorine, so that the chlorine quantity exceeds the theoretical quantity. Then stop chlorine. Hydrogen chloride in the discharge material. Stop nitrogen and heating, put the material at 90 ℃, leave it overnight, filter, wash the crystals with a small amount of chlorobenzene, rinse with a large amount of water, filter dry, and dry to obtain the finished product.
