Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain high-purity meta-bromobenzoic acid inexpensively and readily, by brominating benzoic acid to give crystal of crude meta-bromobenzoic acid, resuspending the crystal in water, adjusting the suspension to a pH in a fixed range to remove impurities and filtering off. CONSTITUTION:Benzoic acid is reacted with bromine in sulfuric acid in the presence of an iodine catalyst, the reaction solution is poured to water to precipitate meta-bromobenzoic acid (MBBA), which is then filtered to give crude MBBA. The crude MBBA is resuspended in 1-20 times as much water as the crystal, adjusted at 20-100 deg.C with NaOH to KOH to pH 3.5-6, preferably 4-5, kept for about 0.5-2hr and then filtered to give high-purity meta- bromobenzoic acid useful as an intermediate for agricultural chemicals, dye, etc. This method is an extremely simple method.

This is then filtered to recover crude MBBA crystals. However, in this case, there is a tendency for unreacted raw material BA and overreacted product dibromobenzoic acid (hereinafter referred to as DBBA) to be mixed into the crystals obtained, and the purity of MBBA is from g to g6.
Is the amount of impurities BA compared to Q? ~q%, DBBA7~? It will be about 100%. Therefore, it is necessary to purify and remove these.

According to the method of the present invention, the crude MBBA crystals obtained are suspended in water again, and the impurities BA and DBBA are removed by adjusting the pH of the suspension within a certain range. In this case, the pH when the crude MBBA crystals are suspended in water is due to the adhesion of sulfuric acid used during the reaction.
Therefore, in order to adjust the pH to a specific pH range according to the present invention, an alkali such as Mail or KOH is used as an adjusting agent.

The pH range of the present invention is from 3.5 to O, preferably from Da to 5. Here, when pure MBBA crystals with no sulfuric acid attached are suspended in water, the pH is approximately -
However, in the present invention, by adjusting this to be slightly alkaline, impurities BA and DBBA can be made preferentially water-soluble and MBBA can be purified. Removal is not sufficient, while impurities can be removed above this range, but the recovery rate of the target MBBA is significantly lowered, so both are unfavorable.

The amount of water used for crude MBBA when suspended in water is 7 to 20
The amount is preferably 3 to 10 times the weight. If the amount used is too small, removal of impurities will not be sufficient and problems will arise in the stirrability of the suspension. On the other hand, if the amount used is too large, impurities can be removed, but the recovery rate of the target MBBA decreases, and the processing equipment becomes larger due to the increase in the amount of liquid, which is disadvantageous.

The temperature for pH adjustment and maintenance is in the range of 20 to 100°C, preferably in the range of θ to 60°C. If the temperature is too low, the removal of impurities will not be sufficient, whereas if the temperature is too high, the impurities can be removed, but the recovery rate of the target MBBA will decrease.
