Problems solved by technology

The method for the synthesis of nitriles originally proposed is mainly the exchange of cyanide ions in halogen groups and metal cyanides, which usually needs to be carried out under conditions such as high temperature and high pressure, and the metal cyanides used in these methods are highly toxic and harmful to the environment. heavy metal pollution
In later reports, although the source of metal cyanide has been improved, it still cannot completely avoid environmental pollution and hazards to personnel health
Since then, various methods for the synthesis of nitrile compounds starting from different substrates have been proposed successively. However, in most routes, catalysts containing transition metals need to be used, or relatively harsh experimental conditions are still required, which greatly affects Its application in actual production

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for electrochemically catalyzing and synthesizing aromatic nitriles using alcohol as a raw material. The reaction adopts a three-electrode system, the cathode and the anode are both platinum electrodes, and 0.1mol / L silver nitrate acetonitrile solution is used as a reference electrode. A reaction substrate is added to the solution, and the electrolyte is sodium perchlorate, sodium periodate or sodium tetrafluoroborate with a molar concentration of 0.05-0.2mol / L; the reaction substrate is benzyl alcohol compound, ammonium acetate and 2 , 2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine nitroxide radical, the reaction substrate benzyl alcohol compound, ammonium acetate and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine nitroxide radical three feeding The molar ratio is 100:200~400:5~30; after stirring the electrolysis reaction for 5~30 hours under the condition of temperature 5~40℃ and electrolysis voltage 0.6~2.5V, the reaction solution is post-treated to obtain the product aromatic nitrile. The beneficial effects mainly lie in that the raw materials of the invention are cheap and easy to obtain; the reaction conditions are relatively mild; clean electric energy is used as the oxidation-reduction agent, and the environmental cost is greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of organic compound synthesis, and in particular relates to a method for electrochemically catalytically synthesizing aromatic nitriles by using alcohol as a raw material. Background technique [0002] Nitrile compounds are widely used in the production of dyeing agents, pesticides, herbicides, etc., and are important chemical raw materials. At the same time, because the cyano group can be converted into other groups under mild conditions, such as carboxyl group, amino group, etc., nitrile compounds are often used as intermediates in drug synthesis. The method for the synthesis of nitriles originally proposed is mainly the exchange of cyanide ions in halogen groups and metal cyanides, which usually needs to be carried out under conditions such as high temperature and high pressure, and the metal cyanides used in these methods are highly toxic and harmful to the environment. It can also cause heavy metal pollution. I...
