| Use | Used as an explosive This product is an organic synthetic raw material. It is used as an intermediate of imidacloprid and acetamiprid on pesticides to synthesize the next intermediate N-Nitroimidazolidine, in addition, it can be reduced to aminoguanidine, used to synthesize angina pectoris drug Le Kean, etc., and can also be used for the preparation of explosives and smokeless water. Used in organic synthesis, preparation of aminoguanidine, drug Le Kean, etc. It can also be used for the preparation of explosives and smokeless gunpowder. Pesticides, pharmaceutical intermediates, automobile airbags |
| Production method | It is obtained by reacting nitric acid at 20°C in the presence of sulfuric acid. Under the condition of cooling and stirring, the guanidine nitrate is slowly added to concentrated sulfuric acid in a small amount, and the reaction temperature does not exceed 20 ℃. Add it, place it, and pour it into ice water to precipitate nitroguanidine. Then filter, wash away the acid with water, and then recrystallize from boiling water to obtain the finished product. The yield is over 70%. The preparation method is that guanidine nitrate is dehydrated in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid to form nitroguanidine. 280g guanidine nitrate is slowly added into 250mL of pre-cooled concentrated sulfuric acid (relative density is 1.84) under stirring. During the addition process, the reaction temperature is strictly controlled below 20 ℃. After all the guanidine nitrate is added, it is stirred intermittently until it is uniform and crystal-free. Then pour into a mixture of crushed ice and water, fully stir and filter, wash the water until neutral, and then recrystallize to obtain nitroguanidine. |
