The application relates to the technical field of
fine chemical synthesis, and discloses a PDI catalyst for preparing
cresol trisiloxane, a preparation method and a preparation method of
cresol trisiloxane. Me PDI)FeBr2,
sodium and nai are dissolved in an ultradry
solvent, and the reaction is stirred under a
nitrogen atmosphere; the
reaction product is post-treated to obtain a PDI catalyst; 2-(2'-hydroxy-3'-methylethenyl-5'-methylphenyl)
benzotriazole and the PDI catalyst are dissolved in an
organic solvent, the temperature is increased to 50-60 DEG C, bistrimethylsiloxy
methylsilane is added dropwise, and the reaction is preserved for 6-10 h; the
organic solvent is removed by concentration under reduced pressure, and
crystallization is carried out to obtain
cresol trisiloxane. The
iron complex catalyst is used to replace the traditional
platinum catalyst, the material cost is reduced, the risk of heavy
metal residue can be avoided, a small amount of the
iron complex catalyst can be used, and higher catalytic activity and selectivity can be realized.
