Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the subject pure-white compound by brominating bisphenol A in methanol solvent, adding a specific aqueous solution to the resultant reaction mixture, decomposing the excess bromine, adding water and crystallizing tetrabromobisphenol A. CONSTITUTION:Bisphenol A is completely dissolved in nearly absolute methanol and brominated with bromine in an amount of preferably 4.0-4.06mol based on 1mol bisphenol A at a low temperature under as mild conditions as possible to provide a tetrabromobisphenol A-containing methanol. An aqueous solution of hydrazine previously diluted with water is then slowly added thereinto to reduce and completely decompose the excess bromine. Water is subsequently added to crystallize tetrabromobisphenol A and afford the objective pure-white compound of higher quality (hue), crystallizable in a reactor without requiring a purification step and useful as a reaction type flame retardant for epoxy laminated sheets or addition type flame retardant for general-purpose resins, such as ABS.

That is, the present invention provides a method for producing tetrabromobisphenol A by brominating bisphenol A in a methanol solvent, in which an aqueous hydrazine solution is added to methanol containing tetrabromobisphenol A after the reaction is completed to reduce excess bromine. The present invention relates to a method for producing tetrabromobisphenol A with improved hue by adding water and crystallizing tetrabromobisphenol A.

The amount of bromine added dropwise is 4 to 1 mole of bisphenol.
.. 0 to 4.06 is preferred. The tetrabromobisphenol A-containing liquid after the reaction has a yellow to light brown color, and this coloring is due to excess bromine that did not participate in the reaction. For this reason, if water is added as is to crystallize tetrabromobisphenol A, the bromine will be incorporated into the crystals of tetrabromobisphenol A, resulting in a significantly poor color of the product.
