Problems solved by technology

[0003] Existing domestic and foreign at present many papers report the synthetic method of EDOT and its intermediate, starting material is mainly based on thiodiglycolic acid, but its esterification yield is generally on the low side (Polymer such as Qibing Pei, 1994, Vol.35 , No.7, 1374-1351), and the cost of raw materials is high. In addition, this step also requires vacuum distillation to purify thiodiglycolic acid ester, otherwise impurities will affect the quality of EDOT products, the color is poor, and it is difficult to purify as high Pure grade for the increasingly demanding electronics industry
In addition, there are many reaction steps (CN101591345B, CN101429205B) and the frequent transfer of reaction materials affects the yield, and increases the cost and unnecessary labor and energy consumption for industrialization
[0004] Keegstra M A et al. proposed to use 3,4-dibromothiophene as a starting material to react 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (see Tetrahedron, 1992,48(17):3633-3652). This method is expensive and the reaction conditions Harsh, the product yield is low, only suitable for the laboratory

[0035] Synthesis reaction of thiodiglycolic acid ester

[0036] Under the protection of nitrogen, put 80g (1.025mol) of sodium sulfide, 500ml of absolute ethanol, and 0.5g of crown ether (15-crown-5) in a four-necked bottle, and add 122.5g (1mol) of ethyl chloroacetate dropwise at room temperature After the dropwise addition, raise the temperature to 45-55°C, keep it warm for 1 hour, take a sample for GC tracking, and if the content of ethyl chloroacetate is ≤2%, the reaction is complete. After filtering, the filter cake was washed twice with 30 ml of absolute ethanol and the combined filtrate was obtained to obtain 705 g, with a GC content of 27.1%, equivalent to 191.4 g of diethyl thiodiglycolate, and a molar yield of 92.9%.
