Problems solved by technology

However, the publicly reported liquid-phase catalytic hydrogenation technology (technical process such as figure 1 Shown) there are also two shortcomings: 1) in the chlorination liquid (2-chloro-4-nitrotoluene, p-nitrotoluene, a small amount of dichloronitrotoluene and chlorination catalyst etc. Mixed solution) after repeated washing to neutrality, the raw material 2-chloro-4-nitrotoluene as the catalytic hydrogenation step also needs to be refined and purified, the purpose of which is to remove the entrapped 2-chloro-4-nitrotoluene Iron trichloride and iodine (chlorination reaction catalyst) and chlorine ions (raw material chlorine from chlorination) and other substances in the hydrogenation catalyst are prevented from causing poisoning and deactivation of the hydrogenation catalyst [Journal of Zhejiang Ocean University (Natural Science Edition), 2007, 26(2):198]
Xu Danqian et al [Dye Industry, 2001, 38(1): 16] also found that increasing the ratio of methanol to raw materials can significantly reduce the content of azo oxides and azo compounds, but at the same time the content of dehalogenation by-products has nearly doubled
In addition, the use of solvents will also reduce the effective volume of the reactor, affecting production efficiency and production capacity, and recycling solvents requires a lot of energy. Solvent loss is not only a waste of resources but also pollutes the environment.
The chlorination catalyst and other impurities remaining in the 2-chloro-4-nitrotoluene raw material will also deepen the poisoning of the hydrogenation catalyst under the dispersion of the solvent

Abstract

A method for synthesizing 3-chloro-4-methylaniline is disclosed and comprises: taking a 4-nitrotoluene chlorination liquid as an initial raw material, standing for separating water, so as to obtain a mixture mainly containing 2-chloro-4-nitrotoluene, 4-nitrotoluene and dicloronitrotoluene, directly conveying to a hydrogenation reaction kettle without performing refining purification processing, and performing catalytic hydrogenation reaction under the conditions of not using organic solvents and dehalogenation inhibiters and under the effect of a carbon-supported palladium catalyst, and performing rectification separation on the fully-reacted reduced liquid to obtain 3-chloro-4-methylaniline. A preparation method of the carbon-supported palladium catalyst comprises: firstly processing active carbon in hydrogen atmosphere at 200-800 DEG C, then using a NaBr or KBr solution for dipping to enable Br ion to be supported on the active carbon surface, filtering and washing until no Br ion is detected out; then dipping the processed active carbon in a H2PdCl4 solution, after complete dipping, adjusting the pH value of the solution to 7.0, fully stirring for reaction, filtering and washing with deionized water until no chlorine ion is detected out; and finally performing reduction in hydrogen atmosphere at 30-400 DEG C to obtain the carbon-supported palladium catalyst.
