Description

  

  Verfahren zur Herstellung von     Phthalonitril.       Vorliegende Erfindung     betrifft    ein Ver  fahren zur Herstellung von     Phthalonitril,     welches dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, dass auf       Phthalamid        Phosgen    in einer flüssigen, zykli  schen, organischen, tertiären, stickstoffhaltigen  Base einwirken gelassen wird.  



  Beispiele von geeigneten tertiären, stick  stoffhaltigen Basen sind:     Pyridin,    einschliess  lich technisches.     Pyridin,        Dimethyl-    und     Di-          äthylanilin    und     Diäthyl-o-toluidin.    Ein     inertes     Verdünnungsmittel, wie Chlorbenzol, Benzin,       Toluol    und Nitrobenzol kann der tertiären,  stickstoffhaltigen Flüssigkeit mit Vorteil zu  gesetzt werden.  



  <I>Beispiel 1:</I>  164 Teile gepulvertes     Pbthalamid    werden  in 1500 Teilen trockenem     Pyridin    (über       galiumhydrogyd    getrocknet) suspendiert.       Phosgen    wird während 40 Minuten eingerührt,  so dass die Temperatur allmählich auf 86  <B>0</B>    steigt und eine Gewichtszunahme von 205  Teilen erhalten wird. Die resultierende, klare,  dunkle Lösung wird abgekühlt und auf Eis  geschüttet. Das gefällte     Phthalonitril    wird  gefiltert, mit Wasser gewaschen und bei 100   C  getrocknet. Der Ertrag ist 110 Teile und das       Phthalonitril    schmilzt bei     136-138'    C.

   Eine  einmalige     Rekristallisation    aus Alkohol ergibt  ein Material vom richtigen Schmelzpunkt,  z. B. 140   C.  



  <I>Beispiel 2:</I>  165 Teile gepulvertes     Phthalamid-werden     in einem Gemisch von 353 Teilen trockenen       Dimethylanilins    und 410 Teilen trockenen  Chlorbenzols suspendiert und auf 60--65   C  erhitzt. 220 Teile     Phosgen    werden bei 60 bis  65   C in solchem Verhältnis eingerührt, dass  alles     Phosgen    absorbiert wird. Das     Phthalo-          nitril    wird wie im Beispiel 1 isoliert. Der  Ertrag ist 112 Teile, der Schmelzpunkt 139   C.



  Process for the production of phthalonitrile. The present invention relates to a method for the production of phthalonitrile, which is characterized in that phosgene is allowed to act on phthalamide in a liquid, cyclic, organic, tertiary, nitrogen-containing base.



  Examples of suitable tertiary, nitrogen-containing bases are: Pyridine, including technical ones. Pyridine, dimethyl and diethyl aniline and diethyl-o-toluidine. An inert diluent such as chlorobenzene, gasoline, toluene and nitrobenzene can advantageously be added to the tertiary nitrogen-containing liquid.



  <I> Example 1 </I> 164 parts of powdered phthalamide are suspended in 1500 parts of dry pyridine (dried over galium hydrogen). Phosgene is stirred in for 40 minutes, so that the temperature gradually rises to 86 and a weight increase of 205 parts is obtained. The resulting, clear, dark solution is cooled and poured onto ice. The precipitated phthalonitrile is filtered, washed with water and dried at 100.degree. The yield is 110 parts and the phthalonitrile melts at 136-138 'C.

   A single recrystallization from alcohol gives a material of the correct melting point, e.g. B. 140 C.



  <I> Example 2: </I> 165 parts of powdered phthalamide are suspended in a mixture of 353 parts of dry dimethylaniline and 410 parts of dry chlorobenzene and heated to 60-65 C. 220 parts of phosgene are stirred in at 60 to 65 ° C. in such a ratio that all of the phosgene is absorbed. The phthalonitrile is isolated as in Example 1. The yield is 112 parts, the melting point 139 C.
