Preparation method of thiocarbamate compound
A preparation method of thiocarbamate compounds, relating to a preparation method of thiocarbamate compounds especially used for mineral dressing medicaments.
Thiocarbamate compounds are important mine beneficiation reagents, and currently the Cyanamid Co, in the United states of the manufacturers producing such reagents, has a leading level in the production of the product, and in the company's US4479903 patent document, the most prominent compounds of this class are disclosedThe synthesis method of (2) and becomes a main method for synthesizing the compounds, and the synthesis process is approximately as follows:
① firstly dissolving sodium thiocyanide (NaSCN) in water, adopting tetrabutylammonium bromide as phase transfer catalyst to make sodium thiocyanide enter into organic phase, controlling temperature to make it react with allyl chloride in organic phase to prepare artificial mustard oil intermediate, the reaction process is:
and (3) nucleophilic reaction.
② heating, refluxing, isomerizing thiocyanate to isothiocyanate, and cooling with water.
③ the reaction mixture was allowed to stand, separated and the aqueous phase was removed.
④ the organic phase is warmed to 100 ℃ again and the residual water and excess allyl chloride are distilled off under reduced pressure.
⑤ adding isobutanol with water content less than 0.15%, adding titaniumTetrabutyl acid is used as a catalyst, and reacts with isothiocyanate at the temperature of 110 ℃, and the reaction formula is as follows:and obtaining a final product.
The technology is an effective method for preparing the thiocarbamate compound, and has been widely applied industrially, but the technology has the limitation of the adopted process, so the production cost of the product is high, the product price is high, and the industrial application of the product is limited. The above method also has the following obvious disadvantages, mainly:
① the process is complicated, the reaction steps are many, and the process is discontinuous.
② Tetrabutylammoniabromide is used as phase transfer catalyst to make sodium thiocyanide enter organic phase for reaction
The use of the phase transfer catalyst also increases the dissolution of the intermediate in the water phase, on one hand, the standing phase separation time is prolonged, on the other hand, the discharged water phase carries a large amount of toxic organic intermediate besides sodium chloride, which poses a threat to the environmental protection and increases the byproduct treatment process.
③ the phase transfer catalyst is lost with the water phase, which increases the production cost and pollutes the environment.
④ since the isomerization reaction of thiocyanate to isothiocyanate is a balanced reaction, the temperature is raised to favor the proceeding of isomerization reaction, but there is low boiling point azeotrope formed in water phase, the reaction temperature can only reach 90 ℃ under normal pressure, the reflux temperature can only be about 90 ℃, the reflux temperature is low to favor the proceeding of isomerization reaction, and the product yield is limited to be raised.
⑤ since there is water left unremoved after phase separation, it must be heated again to 100 deg.C and decompressed to distill, during this process, the distillate of reaction intermediate will be mixed into the distilled water, the toxic intermediate will deteriorate the operation environment during this process, the distilled water must be treated, increasing the difficulty of the process.
The invention aims to overcome the defects in the existing preparation method of the thiocarbamate compound, and provides a novel preparation method of the thiocarbamate compound, which has the advantages of simple process, effective cost reduction, capability of eliminating the discharge of harmful substances generated in the repeated dehydration treatment of an intermediate, effective improvement of the working environment and pollution reduction.

The reflux temperature of RSCN ⇔ RNCS is greatly raised to 90-140 deg.c, which is favorable to the conversion of thiocyanate into isothiocyanate.
The preparation method of the thiocarbamate compound adopts ROH which is one of reaction raw materials as a homogeneous medium of the whole reaction, and the chemical reaction process is carried out in the homogeneous medium. Because the reaction is carried out in alcohol and the alcohol as reactant is introduced in advance, the isothiocyanate newly formed in the process can be reacted with the alcohol as medium at any time
The final product is produced, and the isothiocyanate concentration is reduced due to the continuous consumption of the newly produced isothiocyanate, allowing the reaction
