Problems solved by technology

[0003] 4-Chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol is obtained by chlorination of 3,5-dimethylphenol. When chlorine gas is used as the chlorination reagent, the para-substituted product 4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol The P / O ratio of (PCMX) to the ortho-substituted product 2-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol (OCMX) is only 1.5, and the U.S. Patent US4245127 mentions that when sulfuryl chloride is used, the reaction with P / O>6 can be achieved As a result, this method is mostly used in industry at present, but the by-products include sulfur dioxide in addition to hydrogen chloride, which brings troubles to the post-treatment of the three wastes
U.S. Patent No. 4,245,127 also introduces the use of organic sulfides and metal chlorides as co-catalysts. The yield of PCMX is 91.5%, P / O=14.4, and the para-selectivity is not high
[0004] Wu Fei introduced the method of using hydrochloric acid as the chlorination reagent and copper chloride as the catalyst in the article "Study on the Synthesis of 4-Chloro-3,5-Xylenol by Oxidation and Chlorination of 3,5-Dimethylphenol". The selectivity of PCMX can reach 95.47%, and the P / O ratio is 31.40; although this method has certain control over the reaction by-products, it involves a heterogeneous reaction and has a certain influence on the mass transfer of the reaction

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing 4-chloro-3, 5-dimethylphenol. The method comprises the following step: carrying out a chlorination reaction on a 3, 5-dimethylphenol by taking phosgene as a chlorination reagent and a saturated nitrogen-oxygen heterocyclic compound as an accelerant to obtain 4-chloro-3, 5-dimethylphenol. The method has the advantages of no generation of gas sulfide, high para-position selectivity, simplicity and convenience in operation and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of organic chemical synthesis, and in particular relates to a method for preparing 4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol. Background technique [0002] 4-Chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol (p-chloro-m-xylenol, PCMX) is a high-efficiency, broad-spectrum antifungal and antibacterial agent, which is widely used in daily, medical, and industrial sterilization fields. With the prohibition of triclosan and triclocarban, and the improvement of people's quality of life, the demand for sterilization increases, 4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol will have greater demand for use. [0003] 4-Chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol is obtained by chlorination of 3,5-dimethylphenol.
