Embodiment 1

[0028] (1) Chloromethylation reaction

[0029] In a 500ml four-necked flask, add 48g of paraformaldehyde, 106g of p-xylene, 10g of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole bromide, and 3.2g of concentrated hydrochloric acid with a concentration of 36%. After stirring evenly, the temperature rises to Charge hydrogen chloride gas at 80-85°C, keep warm for 0.5 hours after the hydrogen chloride gas has been flushed, and then let it stand for stratification after cooling down to room temperature, the upper layer is the organic layer, and the lower layer is the water layer. The water layer is dehydrated under reduced pressure, and the dehydrated ionic liquid can be recycled. The organic layer was transferred to a 500ml four-neck flask for rectification under reduced pressure, and 139.3g of 2,5-dimethylbenzyl chloride was finally obtained after precipitation, with a yield of 90.1%.

Embodiment 2

[0033] (1) Chloromethylation reaction

[0034] In a 500ml four-neck flask, add 24g of paraformaldehyde, 53g of p-xylene, 4.9g of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, and 1.6g of concentrated hydrochloric acid with a concentration of 36%, and heat up after stirring When the temperature rises to 80-85°C, hydrogen chloride gas is filled. After the hydrogen chloride gas is filled, it is kept for 0.5 hours. After cooling down to room temperature, it is allowed to stand for stratification. The upper layer is the organic layer, and the lower layer is the water layer. The water layer is dehydrated under reduced pressure, and the dehydrated ionic liquid can be recycled. The organic layer was transferred to a 500ml four-neck flask for rectification under reduced pressure, and 70.6g of 2,5-dimethylbenzyl chloride was finally obtained after precipitation, with a yield of 91.3%.

Embodiment 3

[0038] (1) Chloromethylation reaction

[0039] In a 250ml four-necked flask, add 36.0g of paraformaldehyde, 84.8g of p-xylene, 14.0g of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole chloride, 2.4g of concentrated hydrochloric acid with a concentration of 36%, and heat up after stirring evenly. Fill in hydrogen chloride gas when the temperature rises to 80-85°C, keep the temperature for 0.5 hours after the hydrogen chloride gas is filled, let it stand and separate after cooling down to room temperature, the upper layer is the organic layer, and the lower layer is the water layer. The water layer is dehydrated under reduced pressure, and the dehydrated ionic liquid can be recycled. The organic layer was transferred to a 250ml four-neck flask for rectification under reduced pressure, and 113.4g of 2,5-dimethylbenzyl chloride was finally obtained after precipitation, with a yield of 91.7%.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing 2,5-dimethyl phenylacetic acid. The 2,5-dimethyl phenylacetic acid is a fine chemical engineering intermediate which is widely applied in fields of medicines and pesticides, and particularly is a key intermediate of spirotetramat serving as a novel insecticide. The method comprises the following steps of: mixing paraxylene serving as a raw material and ionic liquid serving as solvent with paraformaldehyde and concentrated hydrochloric acid, and performing a chloromethylation reaction to obtain 2, 5-dimethyl benzyl chloride; and performing a carbonylation reaction and a hydrolysis reaction of the 2, 5-dimethyl benzyl chloride and an acid-binding agent and the solvent in a reactor under the action of a catalyst to obtain the 2,5-dimethyl phenylacetic acid. The method has a novel process, short synthetic reaction steps, simplicity of operation, low production cost, high reaction yield, and environmental friendliness, and is suitable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a chemical synthesis method, in particular to a preparation method of a fine chemical intermediate 2,5-dimethylphenylacetic acid. Background technique [0002] 2,5-Dimethylphenylacetic acid is an important fine chemical intermediate, which is widely used in the fields of medicine and pesticides, especially, it is the key intermediate of the new insecticide spirotetramat, which It is the only insecticide with two-way systemic conduction so far.
