Problems solved by technology

[0003] In existing reports, there are mainly two methods for preparing 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline. The first method is to use m-toluidine as a raw material, under the effect of concentrated sulfuric acid, with isopropanol or 2 -Chloropropane carries out Friedel-Crafts reaction to obtain 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline for isopropylating reagent, and this method is not only selectivity poor, and production capacity is low and does not utilize suitability for industrialized production; The second kind of method is with N- Isopropyl-3-methylaniline is used as a raw material, and 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline is obtained by rearrangement under strong alkali conditions. The yield of this method is low, and the raw material is not easy to obtain, so it is not suitable for industrial production

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline. The preparation method includes the following steps: (1) dissolving m-toluidine in sulfuric acid solution 50-98% in mass concentration as a component 1, then adding an isopropylation reagent into another container to serve as a component 2, simultaneously feeding the component 1 and the component 2 into a jet mixer with the flow rate of 5-10:1 to be mixed at the temperature of 10-35 DEG C, and then reacting at the temperature of 60-95 DEG C through a quartz reaction tube to obtain reaction solution for alkylation reaction; (2) subjecting the reaction solution obtained in the step (1) to separation and purification to obtain 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline. The 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline prepared through the method has the advantages of mild reaction condition, high yield, few by-products, less pollution and the like, and the problems of a lot of by-products, strict conditions and severe pollution in the preparation process of the 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline in the prior art are solved effectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing an organic intermediate, in particular to a method for preparing high-quality 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline. Background technique [0002] 3-Methyl-4-isopropylaniline is an important organic intermediate widely used in medicine, dyes and other fields. At present, the method for preparing and synthesizing 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline is not yet mature, and the existing methods for preparing 3-methyl-4-isopropylaniline are basically still in the stage of laboratory experiments.
