Application | 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol is an organic intermediate, prepared by chlorination reaction. 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol can be used for the preparation of 2-chloro-4-aminophenol. 2-chloro-4-aminophenol is the main intermediate for the synthesis of benzoylurea insecticide diphenylflourea. intermediates in organic synthesis. for organic synthesis |
preparation | in a thermometer, stirrer, add 60g of 500 p-nitrophenol (99% mol) and 0.427G of dichloroethane to the 240 Four-necked bottle of the reflux condenser and tail gas absorption device, stir and heat to 55-65 ℃, and open the vacuum tail gas absorption system, under the condition of micro-negative -0.01-0.02MPa, chlorine gas is introduced, and the reaction process is followed by GC until the raw material is reacted. The solvent dichloroethane is directly applied by desolvation under normal pressure, and then the residual solvent dichloroethane is distilled under reduced pressure at 10mmHg to recover the crude product O-chloro-p-nitrophenol, which is cooled to below 50 ℃ and 200g of toluene is added, after warming up to total dissolution, slowly cooling down to natural precipitation, cooling down to (0-5)℃ in ice bath, stirring for one hour, then filtering, drying to obtain 71.5g of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol, yield 95.1%,GC qualitative content was 99%. |
production method | is obtained by chlorination of p-nitrophenol. P-nitrophenol and concentrated hydrochloric acid were mixed and dissolved by heating. After cooling, potassium chlorate aqueous solution was slowly added, and the mixture was stirred for half an hour. The mixture was left overnight, filtered, and washed with water to remove the acidity. The crude product is dissolved in hot water of 80-90 ℃ and a little acetic acid, decolorized and filtered, cooled, and the needle-like crystals are the finished product. |
