Synthesis method of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid compound

Abstract

The invention relates to a synthesis method of a 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid compound, and relates to the technical field of organic synthesis. The synthesis method of the 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid compound is to solve the problems of many by-products existing in synthesis method of the 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid compound in prior art, low conversion of phenol, incomplete conversion, environmental pollution resulted, the use of a large number of solvents, production of a large amount of wastewater, high cost, complex technology, high environmental risk, and being not conducive to industrial production. According to the synthesis method of the 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid compound, in the synergistic action of anhydrous carbonate weak base and a catalyst, performing condensation of 2, 4-dichlorophenol with halogen acetate, and 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid is obtained directly by hydrolysis and acidification. The process of the synthesis method of the 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid compound is accomplished by condensation, hydrolysis and acid hydrolysis in one pot without any solvent and using anhydrous carbonate weak base to react with 2, 4-dichlorophenol can effectively inhibit the hydrolysis of chloroacetate, improve the condensation conversion, reduce the content of free phenol, keep a yield over 97% an active ingredient more than 98%, and free phenol content in 50-100 ppm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, in particular to a method for synthesizing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. Background technique [0002] 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, 2,4-D) is a representative plant auxin. A variety of commercial processing formulations of this compound, such as sodium salt, ammonium salt, butyl ester, isooctyl ester, etc., can be used as plant growth regulators at low concentrations, and can be used to prevent and control tomato, cotton, pineapple, etc. Seedless fruit, etc.; at high concentrations, it is mainly used as a systemic herbicide, and can be used to control broad-leaved weeds such as quinoa, amaranth, and grass weeds in the bud stage in wheat, rice, corn, sugarcane and other crop fields. The drug has low toxicity, is harmless to humans and animals, and can be mixed with various pesticides. It is one of the widely used herbicides at present. [0003] Sinc...
