The method is suitable for the occasion of synthesizing the o-chlorotrifluoromethane by taking the o-chlorotoluene as a raw material through the working procedures of catalytic side chain chlorination, rectification, neutralization and the like.

Background

At present, the known synthesis method uses o-chlorotoluene as a raw material to obtain o-chlorotrifluoromethylene through side chain photochlorination.

The traditional side chain chlorination method has the advantages that the yield is about 90%, the production process is complicated, and a large amount of by-products, namely hydrochloric acid and sodium hypochlorite solution are generated and exhaust gas is discharged. In addition, monochloride, dichlorate, side chain and benzene ring chlorination byproducts are generated during side chain chlorination, so that the conversion rate and yield of a target product are low, the separation and purification process is complicated and time-consuming, and the amount of organic three wastes is large.
