Continuous method for preparing dihalogenated alkane from diol compound
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of chemical synthesis, in particular to a continuous method for preparing dihalogenated alkane from diol compounds.
Background
Dihalogenated alkanes have very wide application in the field of traditional fine chemical engineering, and particularly have irreplaceable effects as hydrophobic groups and alkylation groups in molecules of medicines, pesticides and surfactants. With the development of biomedical technology, visual diagnostic reagents for preoperative diagnosis, operation planning or intermediate evaluation gradually become pets of surgeons, wherein the development of near-infrared fluorescence molecular diagnosis technology is particularly rapid, and the near-infrared fluorescence technology has the advantages of good tissue penetrability, small scattering and low background fluorescence, and is very suitable for clinical in-vivo imaging.
Indocyanine green is currently approved for clinical use as a liver cancer imaging and sentinel lymph node imaging agent. However, fluorescent molecules, such as indocyanine green, do not have biological targeting properties. In order to target fluorescent molecules, a targeting group (or called a recognition group) and a luminescent group (or called a reporter group) are usually connected by a small molecule, so that the connected molecule is called a linker. Dihaloalkanes are currently the most widely enabled linkers, and it is anticipated that the use of dihaloalkanes will be more and more widespread.
The common method for producing dihalo-alkane is nucleophilic substitution reaction of diol and thionyl chloride, but this method has large pollution, poor atom economy, high cost and is not suitable for production of other halogenated hydrocarbons except chloro-substituted hydrocarbon.
With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, attempts have been made to produce dihaloalkanes by using hydrochloric acid and diols, which are economical and environmentally friendly, but have low reaction efficiency, low yield and long reaction time, and thus cannot meet the requirements of industrial production. In order to enhance the reaction process and also to take into account the safety risks associated with high temperature, high pressure and high concentration during the process enhancement, we have developed a process for the synthesis of concentrated hydrochloric acid and diol in a microchannel reactor.
The microchannel reactor, also called as micro reactor, is one of the most important directions for the development of chemical engineering technology in this century. The microchannel reactor has very high-efficient mass transfer and heat transfer performance, can accelerate the reaction, reduce back mixing, improve reaction selectivity and yield, and has reliable intrinsic safety because of small liquid holdup and large surface heat exchange area. Because the capacity expansion of the microreactor mainly depends on the increase of the number of reactors and the extension of the running time, the whole process has no amplification effect, the method is safe and reliable, the rapid industrialization can be realized, the switching of varieties in the microreactor is very convenient and rapid, and the characteristics and advantages of the microreactor are very suitable for the industrial production of the dihalogenated alkane.
