Embodiment 1

[0014] (1) In 200 mL of 30% (wt%) H 2 SO 4 solution, add 20g Cr 2 (SO 4 ) 3 Solid, stirred to dissolve and used as anolyte; 80 mL 10 % (wt%) H 2 SO 4 solution as catholyte. The electrolytic cell is divided into an anode chamber and a cathode chamber by ceramics. The anolyte is poured into the anode chamber and the catholyte is poured into the cathode chamber. The anode is a lead dioxide plate and the cathode is a lead rod. During electrolysis, control the temperature of the electrolyte in the electrolyzer to be 30 0 C, cell voltage 3 V, current density 400 A m -2 . When the anolyte changes from dark green to brownish red, stop electrolysis. Subsequently, the anolyte was evaporated to obtain a red solid of chromium trioxide, and 8.5 g of chromium trioxide was obtained after filtration, with a yield of 85%, and the filtrate (referred to as A) was concentrated sulfuric acid containing a small amount of trivalent chromium and hexavalent chromium, It can be recycled and u...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing 3-methyl-4-nitrobenzoic acid by using a stepped heating method and an indirect electrosynthesis method. The method is implemented by taking 2,4-dimethylnitrobenzene and chromium sulfate as main raw materials through the following steps of: firstly, carrying out electrolytic oxidation on chromium sulfate by using an electrolytic process so as to obtain chromium trioxide; then, selectively oxidizing 2,4-dimethylnitrobenzene into a 3-methyl-4-nitrobenzoic acid by using chromium trioxide through using the stepped heating method. According to the invention, through adopting the stepped heating method, the oxidation reaction rate of 2,4-dimethylnitrobenzene is controlled, and the selectivity and conversion rate of reaction are remarkably improved. The conversion rate of chromium trioxide obtained by using an electrolytic oxidation method is 85-95%, and the conversion rate of 3-methyl-4-nitrobenzoic acid obtained by using the stepped heating method can reach 65-86%. According to the invention, the problem that in the process of reaction, the reaction rate declines due to the consumption of acids is solved; through carrying out electrolytic oxidation on chromium sulfate produced after reaction, chromium trioxide is circularly produced, thereby not only avoiding the environment pollution, but also greatly saving the cost.
