Introduction | p-chlorophenol is a white crystalline (yellow to pink when not pure)-like substance with an unpleasant odor. Soluble in water, ethanol, benzene and ether. It can volatilize with water vapor and has strong irritation. The maximum allowable concentration in the air of the workshop is 1 mg/m 3. The oral LD50 of rats was 261 mg/kg. |
Application | p-chlorophenol is mainly used in pesticides, pharmaceuticals, dyes, plastics and other industries, and is also used as an ethanol colorant, refined mineral oil selective solvent, microscopic analysis, etc. Phenol is an important raw material for the production of certain resins, fungicides, preservatives and drugs (such as aspirin). It can also be used for the treatment of Disinfection surgical instruments and excreta, skin sterilization, itching and otitis media. |
Application | used in the synthesis of dye neutral brilliant green BL, medicinal antoamine and pesticide, etc, it can also be used as a solvent for refined mineral oil microscopic analysis, pharmaceutical and dye intermediates, alcohol denaturants, solvents. for microscope analysis; For the synthesis of dye neutral brilliant green BL, pharmaceutical Antoin and pesticides, can also be used as a solvent for refined mineral oil; For pesticides, pharmaceuticals, dyes, plastics and other industries, also used as ethanol colorant, refined mineral oil selective solvent, microscopic analysis, etc. microscopic analysis, pharmaceutical and dye intermediates, alcohol denaturant, solvent. This product is mainly used for pesticides; Medicine; Dyes; Plastics and other industries, also used as ethanol colorants; Refined mineral oil selective solvent; Microscopic analysis; Agricultural industry is mainly used for the synthesis of rust; Trimethoprim; wool bactericide; Anti-fall agent; P. Falciparum; P. Poison; Insecticide, etc., used in the manufacture of pesticide bactericide 5, 5 'dichloro-2, 2' dihydroxydiphenylmethane and plant growth promoter; Dye industry for the preparation of 1, 4-dihydroxyanthraquinone, 1, 4-diaminoanthraquinone, p-aminophenol and hydroquinone; the pharmaceutical industry is used to carboxylate sodium 5-chloro-2-hydroxybenzoate, synthesize p-chlorophenoxyisobutyric acid and other drugs; Also used to synthesize antioxidant BHA (butyl hydroxyanisole) and so on. |
production methods | This product has a variety of production methods, there are mainly the following: 1. Phenol direct chlorination method with phenol as raw material, according to the different chlorinating agent and solvent used, is divided into the following three methods:(1) sulfuryl chloride method of phenol heating and melting, cooling to 40 deg C, slowly add sulfuryl chloride, about 40-45min to add, and then stirred for 4H, heated to 30-40 ℃ for 4h,40-45 ℃ for 4H, the reaction tail gas is absorbed by alkali solution, the reaction is cooled to room temperature, water, the 10% sodium carbonate solution and water were sequentially washed and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain p-chlorophenol from 110-115 ℃(2.67kPa) fraction. The yield of p-chlorophenol was 70%-75%. At the same time, 25-30% of the by-product O-chlorophenol was generated. About 1000kg of phenol and about 2000kg of sulfuryl chloride are consumed per ton of p-chlorophenol. (2) benzene solvent method with benzene as solvent, chlorine as chlorinating agent, by phenol direct chlorination of this product. (3) solvent-free chlorination method using iron, bromine and other catalysts, the chlorine gas into the molten phenol, direct chlorination to produce a chlorophenol. After washing, the reaction solution was distilled under reduced pressure to collect a fraction having a p-chlorophenol content of ≥ 95%. The rate of phenol (total ortho/para position) is ≥ 95%, the rate of chlorine is 95%, the ratio of Para/Ortho is 3-4, and the product content is ≥ 98%. Raw material consumption quota: phenol 0.77t/t, chlorine 0.58t/t. The by-product hydrogen chloride was 0.28t/t. The hydrolysis of p-chlorobenzene is prepared by using p-dichlorobenzene as raw material and water or alcohol or benzene as solvent. 3. Chlorinating solution of O-chlorophenol and p-chlorophenol mixed with 2, 4-dichlorophenol obtained from the chlorination of sodium phenolate. The high boiling point fraction at 85-132 °c (2.0kPa) was collected by fractional distillation under reduced pressure, cooled to below 10 °c, and then p-chlorophenol was precipitated and separated. The yield was about 25%. 4. Derived from p-aminophenol by diazotization, cuprous chloride replacement. From p-chloroaniline by diazotization, hydrolysis, elimination and derived. |
