Use | isopropyl isocyanate is an intermediate of the fungicide isourea. |
production method | the preparation method is to put xylene and isopropylamine into a reaction kettle, when the temperature falls below 15 ℃, hydrochloric acid is added dropwise, and the temperature does not exceed 25 ℃, heating and azeotropic dehydration are carried out until dehydration is completed, and the temperature is cooled to normal temperature, and the material is transferred to an isopropyl isocyanate reaction kettle, the temperature was raised to 80 ℃, and phosgene was introduced. The end point was clear and transparent. The phosgene and hydrogen chloride are driven with nitrogen until the tail gas is neutral. After cooling to room temperature, the material is transferred to the distillation kettle, and the 74~78 ℃ fraction is collected by distillation to be the product. |
