Technical field
The invention belongs to organic synthesis field, in particular to a kind of 2- (2- methylphenoxy)-methylene benzoyl cyanide
Preparation method.
Background technique
Kresoxim-methyl is a kind of efficient, wide spectrum, novel strobilurin fungicide, and the mechanism of action is to act on cell
On pigment compound, the electron transfer process of germ mitochondrial respiratory chain is blocked to make disease to inhibit germ cell energy supply
Bacterium cell lack energy and it is dead.There is good preventive effect for diseases such as powdery mildew, anthracnose, pears scab;It has both simultaneously
There are good protection and therapeutic effect, and other common fungicide no interactions resistances, and it is longer than the conventional sterilization agent lasting period;Tool
There is the selectivity of height, it is substantially pollution-free to environment to crop, people and animals and beneficial organism safety.
2- (2- methylphenoxy)-methylene benzoyl cyanide is the production essential and basic intermediate product of kresoxim-methyl, is closed at present
At 2- (2- methylphenoxy)-methylene benzoyl cyanide method, there are mainly two types of:
2- (2- methylenedioxy phenoxy is synthesized first is that being reacted by 2- (2- methylphenoxy)-methylene-benzene formyl chloride with Cymag
Base)-methylene benzoyl cyanide.Its reaction equation are as follows:
This method is using Cymag as cyanidization agent, and reaction condition is mild, and yield is higher, but Cymag severe toxicity, and reaction is not
Safety, cost of material are higher.
2- (2- methylenedioxy phenoxy is synthesized second is that being reacted by 2- (2- methylphenoxy)-methylene-benzene formyl chloride with cuprous cyanide
Base)-methylene benzoyl cyanide.Its reaction equation are as follows:
This method is using cuprous cyanide as cyanidization agent, and reaction temperature is high, and the reaction time is long, and yield is relatively low.
Therefore how a kind of higher yields and safer 2- (2- methylphenoxy)-methylene benzoyl cyanide are provided
Synthetic method become urgent problem to be solved.
