Abstract

The invention relates to a method for catalytic synthesis of benzyl toluene by an activated clay-loaded ferric trichloride (FeCl3) solid acid catalyst. The method comprises the following steps: adding calcium-based bentonite with concentrated sulfuric acid, performing backflow stirring and drying to obtain solid activated clay; dissolving the FeCl3 in an acetonitrile solution, adding the prepared activated clay, stirring for 24 hours at a room temperature, filtering and activating at a temperature of 120 DEG C to obtain the activated clay-loaded FeCl3 solid acid catalyst; adding the activated clay-loaded FeCl3 solid acid catalyst in an alkylation reaction system of benzyl chloride and toluene for catalytic reaction, filtering and recovering the catalyst; performing reduced-pressure distillation and refinement on a benzyl toluene crude product to obtain benzyl toluene. The method provided by the invention has the advantages that the catalyst is rich in raw material source, low in cost, simple in preparation process, low in energy consumption due to no need of high temperature activation and easy for separation from the product; when the catalyst is used for the synthetic reaction of the benzyl toluene, the reaction conversion rate is high, the selectivity is strong, conditions are mild, the equipment corrosion is low, the catalyst is easy to recover and can be reused, and the environment pollution is less, so that the application prospect is wide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of organic synthesis, and relates to a method for preparing benzyltoluene, in particular to a method for catalytically synthesizing benzyltoluene with an active clay-supported ferric chloride solid acid catalyst. Background technique [0002] Benzyl toluene mainly includes monobenzyl toluene (Monobenzyl Toluene, abbreviated as MBT) and dibenzyl toluene (Dibenzyl Toluene, abbreviated as DBT). Industrially, monobenzyltoluene and bisbenzyltoluene can be used as insulating oil for power capacitors when mixed at a ratio of 3:1, and the trade name is C101. Because C101 has excellent performance and characteristics suitable for making all-film power capacitors, it is more and more widely used in the industry. Mono- and di-benzyltoluene can also be used in the preparation of SAS series power capacitor insulating oil, and as an excellent heat carrier in industry. Therefore, the application prospect of benzyltoluene is very b...
