Abstract

The invention discloses a process for preparing m-cresol by a nitrogen oxide gas, which comprises the following steps: infusing the nitrogen oxide gas in m-toluidine sulfate for carrying out diazotization, hydrolyzing in the presence of an organic solvent and under an acidic condition, carrying out flash evaporation on the acid phase under the condition of negative pressure, returning the acid phase to a salifying step, dehydrogenating and rectifying the organic phase to obtain m-cresol products. The invention uses the nitrogen oxide gas as a diazotizing agent and inorganic salts do not existin a waste acid so that the waste acid is possibly used industrially. The hydrolysis is carried out in the presence of the organic solvent, the m-toluidine generated by the hydrolysis is quickly dissolved in the organic phase, the side product tarry matters generated in the reaction is few, the yield of the m-toluidine is improved, the salt-free waste acid is subjected to the flash evaporation under the negative pressure at a certain temperature, organic matters are stripped while the reaction water is removed, sulfuric acid is used, the dosage of the sulfuric acid is reduced, the purity of the m-toluidine products prepared by the process of the invention is 99.7% and the yield is more than 90%.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of fine chemicals manufacturing, and specifically relates to a process for preparing m-cresol from nitrogen oxide gas.
