Application | O-chloroaniline is the raw material of herbicide chlorsulfuron-methyl, and also an important dye intermediate, dye base for ice dyeing. Also used in pesticide, medicine, synthetic resin, organic synthesis and other fields. This product is ice dye base, can also be used as the diazo component of azo dye, used in the production of acid black, acid blue and organic lake water yellow R, permanent red FR, Hansha yellow HR, etc. And can be used for the preparation of medicine, pesticide, polyurethane resin crosslinking agent methyl chloride aniline. |
production method | obtained by reduction of O-nitrochlorobenzene: reduction with iron powder in hydrochloric acid medium, reflux for 6-8H, steam distillation, the product was obtained by distillation under reduced pressure. It is also possible to carry out reduction of iron powder in the presence of formic acid: 2 m3 of boiling water is added to a 10 M3 cast iron reduction kettle, and then 1.5 of O-nitrochlorobenzene, 15kg of formic acid and t of iron powder are added for the reduction reaction. 4T of O-nitrochlorobenzene was added in portions over 17-20h. Meanwhile, 1T of O-nitrochlorobenzene was added while 1.5T of iron powder and 15kg of formic acid were added while the reduction reaction was carried out for a quarter of an hour. If the reaction is slow, an additional 1t of iron powder may be added. After the completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was allowed to stand, and the amine layer was separated. The reaction mixture was allowed to stand again to precipitate iron, and the iron residue was distilled off with water steam to remove the amine. The crude product was distilled under reduced pressure to obtain 95% of O-chloroaniline. Raw material consumption quota: O-nitrochlorobenzene 1300kg/t, iron powder (90%)1450kg/t, hydrochloric acid (37%) 380kg/t. The preparation method is to use O-chloronitrobenzene and iron chips, dilute hydrochloric acid and water reflux for 6~8H, distilled to obtain the crude product, and then distilled to obtain the finished product. Alternatively, the product may be prepared by catalytic hydrogenation, I .e., hydrogenation of O-chloronitrobenzene in the presence of a catalyst. |
