Problems solved by technology

The melting point of the raw material benzoyl cyanide in this process route is 29-32°C, and it is easy to solidify at low temperature, which is not conducive to the reaction; the intermediate product iminosulfate will violently crystallize and exotherm, stick to the wall, and solidify the material in a short time, etc. problem, there is a great potential safety hazard, which is not conducive to industrial production
[0004] Nantong Dehexi Chemical Co., Ltd. solved the low-temperature curing problem of benzoyl cyanide by adding the solvent methyl benzoate, but the recovery of the solvent in the post-treatment consumes a lot of energy and the yield is low (88-90%)
[0005] Some companies have solved the fluidity problem of the intermediate product iminosulfuric acid ester synthesis process by increasing the proportion of concentrated sulfuric acid, but the amount of waste acid water produced is greatly increased, and the yield is low (85-88%)

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel process for synthesizing methyl benzoylformate from benzoyl cyanide. The novel process comprises the following steps: dissolving benzoyl cyanide in an organic solvent, adding a halide catalyst and a phase transfer catalyst, lasting for 5-60 minutes at a temperature of 5-20 DEG C, adding dropwise concentrated sulfuric acid to the system, and carrying out thermal reaction for 0.5-5 hours at a temperature of 20-40 DEG C to obtain an intermediate iminosulfate compound; and lasting for 5-60 minutes at a temperature of 30-50 DEG C, adding dropwise methyl alcohol to the system, and carrying out thermal reaction for 0.5-5 hours at a temperature of 50-100 DEG C to obtain methyl benzoylformate. In the novel process disclosed by the invention, the reaction at a low temperature is accelerated obviously by using suitable solvents and composite catalysts, so that the potential safety hazard in industrialized production is eliminated, the stability of production is improved, the energy consumption is reduced, and the yield is up to 96%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of fine chemicals, in particular to a new process for synthesizing methyl benzoylformate from benzoyl cyanide. Background technique [0002] Methyl benzoylformate is a compound containing carbonyl, carboxylic acid and ester groups. Due to its multiple active groups, it exhibits special properties and can synthesize important biologically active compounds. It is often used in organic synthesis, photoinitiated It is an important intermediate in the synthesis of medicine and pesticide. [0003] The production method of methyl benzoylformate mainly adopts benzoyl cyanide as raw material at present, further acidolysis, esterification obtains methyl benzoylformate. The melting point of the raw material benzoyl cyanide in this process route is 29-32°C, and it is easy to solidify at low temperature, which is not conducive to the reaction; the intermediate product iminosulfate will violently crystallize and exotherm, stick to...
