Description

Preparation process of p-hydroxybenzonitrile
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a preparation process of p-hydroxybenzonitrile.
Background
P-hydroxybenzonitrile, also known as p-cyanophenol, formula C 7 H 5 NO, white needle-like crystals in the small test, light yellow crystals or crystalline powder in industrial production, with the melting point of 110-113 ℃ and the boiling point of 145 ℃/133Pa, and is easy to dissolve in hot water and slightly dissolve in ice water; dissolving in organic solvent such as methanol, diethyl ether, acetone, chloroform, etc.
The p-hydroxybenzonitrile is an extremely important fine organic chemical raw material and intermediate, is widely used for synthesizing various medicines, spices, pesticides, liquid crystal materials, buffers and the like, particularly as a pesticide intermediate, and can be used for generating benzonitrile pesticide preparations such as molluscicide, benzonitrile phosphorus, bromoxynil, trichlorfon, bai Junqing and the like.
The synthesis of the p-hydroxybenzonitrile mainly comprises the following methods:
(1) Paramynoxybenzoic acid dehydration ammonification method
The reaction mechanism of the carboxylic acid dehydration ammonification method is that acid is connected with ammonia to react, a molecule of water is removed from molecules to form amide, the amide is combined with positive ions under weak acid condition, and then intramolecular dehydration is carried out, so that the nitrile compound p-light benzonitrile is finally formed. The reaction requires high temperature conditions.
(2) Paramygdalin ammonification process
Generally, the process for preparing aromatic nitriles generally comprises two steps: the first step is to dehydrate the aldehyde compartment from acid synthesis and requires a strong acid and strong base dehydrating agent. However, this two-stage dehydration process of aldehyde blemish is gradually replaced by the direct synthesis of nitriles by fermentation, i.e. by the direct reaction of aromatic aldehydes and amines in the same system.
The method has the advantages of easily available raw materials, simple process, high product purity and the like, but the solvent required in the reaction has certain toxicity, can cause certain influence on the environment and the human body, and does not meet the requirements of green chemical production.
(3) Ammonification method of methyl parahydroxybenzoate
The method synthesizes the target product through the intramolecular dehydration after synthesizing the amide. The method is divided into three steps, namely vinegar, amide and aromatic nitrile. Firstly, performing an acetification reaction on p-hydroxybenzoic acid and methanol to synthesize methyl p-hydroxybenzoate, and secondly, ammonifying unitary substance to amide to obtain p-hydroxybenzo amine; finally, the amide is combined with positive ions under weak acid condition to carry out intramolecular dehydration to obtain the required product.
(4) Diazonium salt process
The diazonium salt method is to obtain the target product p-hydroxybenzonitrile through substitution of the halogen phenol and the nitrile group.
The method overcomes the generation and increases the safety of the reaction process, but the reaction condition is not high in etching yield. Further, it has been reported that in the reaction of Dimethoate and cuprous cyanide, the aromatic nitrile formed often combines with cuprous south to form a complex, so that ferric trichloride, ethylenediamine or sodium cyanide must be added to separate the aromatic nitrile from cuprous south, and thus the post-treatment is troublesome. Second, the reaction generally necessitates the use of expensive aprotic polar solvents, and copper recovery is also problematic.
(5) P-cresol process
The methyl- , ammonia, water vapor and air are mixed according to a certain proportion, and the ammonia oxidation reaction is directly carried out on the methyl- , ammonia, water vapor and air at the temperature at the moment, so as to synthesize the cyano group, wherein an oxide or catalyst is generally adopted.
In the p-cresol process, during the reaction process for converting p-tolunitrile, the catalyst is irreversibly deactivated in a short time by the byproducts formed in the oxidation process, so that the key point of the process is to select a better catalyst and solve the coking problem in the reaction process.
Therefore, the synthetic process of the parahydroxybenzonitrile still needs to be optimized.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the defects in the prior art, the invention provides a synthesis process of parahydroxybenzonitrile. The method comprises the following steps:
(1) The p-chlorobenzonitrile reacts with sodium methoxide in a mixed solvent of DMF and methanol under the action of a catalyst, the temperature is reduced to 40 ℃ after the reaction is finished, and methanol is distilled off to obtain an intermediate mixture;
(2) Adding toluene solvent into the intermediate mixture obtained in the step (1), adding aluminum trichloride, heating to 60-80 ℃ for reaction for 12h, cooling to room temperature after the reaction is finished, adding hydrochloric acid with the concentration of 31%, adjusting the pH value to 6, stirring and crystallizing for 1h to obtain the p-hydroxybenzonitrile.
The reaction route is as follows:
in the step (1), the mass-volume ratio of the p-chlorobenzonitrile to the mixed solvent is 1:6-12, wherein the volume ratio of DMF to methanol in the mixed solvent is 1:3, the catalyst is cuprous iodide, and the molar ratio of the catalyst to the p-chlorobenzonitrile is 1:6-10, wherein the mass concentration of the sodium methoxide is 30%, and the molar ratio of the sodium methoxide to the p-chloromethane is 2-3:1, the reaction temperature of the parachloromethane and the sodium methoxide is 50-60 ℃ and the reaction time is 4 hours;
in the step (2), the mass-volume ratio of toluene to the p-chloromethane is 1:6-8, wherein the molar ratio of the aluminum trichloride to the parachloromethane is 2.1-2.5:1.
the invention has the following beneficial effects:
(1) The raw materials for reaction are easy to obtain, the process is simple, high temperature is not needed, and the operation is easy;
(2) The mixed solvent is used in the reaction, the pH is accurately regulated, and the purity and the yield of the product are high.
