(2.2) get sulfur oxychloride, dropwise join in the reaction solution that (2.1) form, dropping temperature is maintained 6~10 ℃ by the rate of addition of regulating sulfur oxychloride by constant pressure funnel by (1) specified amount;
(2.3) after sulfur oxychloride dropwises, remove cooling bath, in the reaction solution that (2.2) form, add solvent by (1) specified amount, then this reaction solution is heated to 80~120 ℃ gradually, under stirring and refluxing, react and do not emit to there being gas, reaction times is 1.0~2.0 hours, stops heating, and this reaction solution is cooled to room temperature;
(2.4) reaction solution that (2.3) are formed is transferred in the separating funnel, at first extracts whole products with pentane, is washed with distilled water to then only, adds saturated NaHCO again
3Solution washing is to clean, is washed with distilled water to only again, and the last consumption that adds in the oily product that separatory obtains is that the anhydrous magnesium sulfate of tetrahydrofuran (THF) molar weight 24%~34% carries out drying.
(2.5) the oily product that (2.4) are formed is transferred to and distills in the there-necked flask, at first collect extraction agent, solvent, temperature is increased to more than 130 ℃ gradually then, collect the cut in 140~146 ℃ of scopes, can obtain 4-chlorobutyl methyl ether product, productive rate is 68~75%, and product purity is 97~99%.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: the present invention compares with existing 4-chlorobutyl methyl ether preparation method, and the reaction times shortened 1~4 hour, temperature of reaction has reduced by 20~40 ℃, product yield and improved 13~25%.In detail relatively lift related data in the prior art referring to the related data in the following example and background technology.
