Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of this method is: two-step reaction is required to generate m-cresol, and the product yield is low. The synthetic yield is generally below 85%, and the total yield is about 80%; the intermediate product diazonium salt has the danger of easy decomposition and explosion
A large amount of sulfuric acid is consum

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing resordinol through direct hydrolysis. The method comprises the following steps: adding sulphuric acid or hydrochloric acid with certain concentration and meta-toluidine respectively according to a proportion into a blending pot so as to form meta-toluidine sulphate or meta-toluidine hydrochloride; sending the meta-toluidine sulphate or meta-toluidine hydrochloride aqueous solution from the blending pot into a high-pressure kettle; controlling the reaction temperature; carrying out the hydrolysis of the meta-toluidine sulphate or the meta-toluidine hydrochloride; recovering part of water in the hydrolysate through flash evaporation for blending; neutralizing the hydrolysate through ammonia spirit or caustic alkali aqueous solution till reaching a PH value of 3 to 5; carrying out organic extraction on the hydrolysate; and then recovering the extractant and refining coarse resordinol. The method adopts only one-step hydrolysis, thereby greatly reducing the dosage of sulphuric acid, and not using sodium nitrite. The concentration of the dilute sulfuric acid generated in the reaction process is lower than 2 percent. The method has the advantages that the cost of neutralizing the dilute acid is low, and the environmental pollution is also low.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of m-cresol production technology, and more specifically relates to a method for producing m-cresol by direct hydrolysis. Background technique [0002] m-cresol is an important chemical intermediate, mainly used as a pesticide intermediate for the production of insecticides fenitrothion, fenthion, amecarb, permethrin, and also for color films, resins, plasticizers and Intermediates of spices. [0003] In China, m-cresol is mainly carried out by the diazotization hydrolysis method of m-toluidine. This method usually dissolves m-toluidine in sulfuric acid solution, forms a diazonium salt by dropping sodium nitrite solution, and then hydrolyzes the diazonium salt under acidic conditions to generate m-cresol. The shortcoming of this method is: two-step reaction is required to generate m-cresol, and the product yield is low, and the synthetic yield is generally below 85%, and the total yield is about 80%; the i...
