use | a reactive flame retardant that can achieve a stricter flame retardant effect after use organic synthesis intermediate |
production method | add 55g pentaerythritol (0.40mol), 200g 40% hydrobromic acid solution (1.0mol) and a certain amount of glacial acetic acid to a 500ml three-mouth bottle equipped with an electric stirrer, a thermometer and a reflux condenser. The stirrer is started, heated slowly, and reacted at reflux temperature for 6~8h. After the reaction is over, water and unreacted hydrogen bromide are removed under reduced pressure, and then 300ml of equal volume of toluene and water mixture are added for stirring treatment for 3h. Filter, recrystallize with hot water, and add activated carbon to decolorize. Filtration and vacuum drying can obtain 84.7g of finished product with yield (calculated as pentaerythritol) as 80.8%. |
