Method for preparing high-purity o-nitroaniline by layered melt crystallization
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical separation, relates to a purification technology of o-nitroaniline, and in particular relates to a method for purifying o-nitroaniline by using melt crystallization.
Background
O-nitroaniline is an important organic chemical raw material and is widely applied to production and preparation of veterinary medicines, medicines and dyes. At the same time, it is also a rubber antioxidant MB, an intermediate for the production of o-phenylenediamine. According to national standard GB/T4840-2016, the superior product of the o-nitroaniline should be orange red flaky solid with the purity of more than or equal to 99.5%, however, the o-nitroaniline synthesized by the common industrial route contains light components such as benzofuran, o-chloroaniline, o-nitrophenol, o-nitrochlorobenzene and the like, the purity of the o-nitroaniline cannot meet the requirement of the superior product, and related reports of the preparation of the ultra-pure o-nitroaniline are not seen.
Patent CN211170527U discloses an experimental device for purifying o-nitroaniline by using steam, which is characterized in that a primary filter screen, a middle-effect filter screen and a high-efficiency filter screen are distributed from large to small in sequence, and the foam of the purified o-nitroaniline is greatly reduced. The preparation method of the o-nitroaniline disclosed in the patent CN1693301A relates to the purification of the o-nitroaniline by distillation, and the purity of the o-nitroaniline reaches 99.8 percent. As for the high-purity (more than or equal to 99.9 percent) o-nitroaniline products, the preparation cannot be achieved in the current industry, and the purification methods such as distillation and the like are possibly realized only when the boiling point (250-300 ℃) of the o-nitroaniline is reached, so that the energy consumption is high, the equipment investment is large, and the operation cost is high.
