Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of phosgene preparation, and in particular to an integrated device for laboratory phosgene synthesis. Background Art
[0002] Phosgene (COCl2), also known as carbonyl chloride, is a highly toxic gas and a suffocating agent. Inhalation of phosgene can cause pulmonary edema, pneumonia, etc., which is dangerous and fatal. It was widely used in the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II to kill prisoners of war and political prisoners. It can be used for evaluation tests of the protective performance of phosgene in protective equipment and adsorption materials. Secondly, phosgene is an important organic intermediate and a very active electrophilic reagent. It is widely used in the production of pesticides, dyes, medicines, fine chemicals and isocyanates (MDI).
[0003] The prior art has the following disadvantages: 1. The existing synthesis device is an ordinary funnel. During the synthesis process, the reaction is too fast, resulting in excessive pressure in the synthesis device. The separatory funnel cannot drip liquid, causing gas to rush out from the upper end of the separatory funnel, forcing the reaction to be interrupted, which poses certain safety hazards.
[0004] 2. The pressure in the existing synthesis device is unstable and the reaction rate cannot be controlled. The reaction rate fluctuates during the synthesis process, resulting in an extremely low phosgene gas yield.
[0005] 3. The original device has a small cooling liquid area during the collection process, and the temperature of the fume hood in winter is lower than the freezing point of impurities, resulting in low product purity and high impurities. Summary of the invention

[0008] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, the condensing medium used by the first serpentine condenser is condensed water, and the condensing medium used by the second serpentine condenser is cooling water, and the cooling water is a mixture of ethylene glycol and water in a volume ratio of 1:1.
[0009] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, the condensing medium of the low-temperature constant-temperature circulating water bath 8 is cooling water, and the cooling water is a mixture of ethylene glycol and water in a volume ratio of 1:1.
[0010] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, the lengths of the first serpentine condenser tube and the second serpentine condenser tube are both 400 mm.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Example 1
[0016] An integrated device for laboratory phosgene synthesis comprises a heat-collecting constant-temperature heating magnetic stirrer 1, wherein a three-necked flask 2 is arranged in the heat-collecting constant-temperature heating magnetic stirrer 1, wherein three mouths of the three-necked flask 2 are respectively inserted with a mercury thermometer 3, a constant-pressure dropping funnel 4 and a first serpentine condenser 5 from left to right, wherein the inlet and outlet of the outer wall of the first serpentine condenser 5 are connected to a first circulating water multi-purpose vacuum pump 6 through a pipeline, and the top outlet of the first serpentine condenser 5 is sequentially connected to a first wide-mouthed glass bottle 9, a second wide-mouthed glass bottle 10 and a collecting bottle 7 through a pipeline, wherein the collecting A low-temperature constant-temperature circulating water bath 8 is placed on the outside of the collecting bottle 7, and a second serpentine condenser 11 is also inserted at the bottle mouth of the collecting bottle 7. The inlet and outlet of the outer wall of the second serpentine condenser 11 are also connected to a second circulating water-type multi-purpose vacuum pump through a pipeline, and the top outlet of the second serpentine condenser 11 is sequentially connected to a third wide-mouth glass bottle 12 and a fourth wide-mouth glass bottle 13 through a pipeline; wherein the first wide-mouth glass bottle 9, the second wide-mouth glass bottle 10 and the third wide-mouth glass bottle 12 are all used to hold 90% concentrated sulfuric acid, and the fourth wide-mouth glass bottle 13 is used to hold 20% NaOH.
[0017] Furthermore, the condensing medium used by the first serpentine condenser tube 5 is condensed water, and the condensing medium used by the second serpentine condenser tube 11 is cooling water, and the cooling water is a mixture of ethylene glycol and water in a volume ratio of 1:1.
[0018] Furthermore, the condensing medium of the low-temperature constant-temperature circulating water bath 8 is cooling water, and the cooling water is a mixture of ethylene glycol and water in a volume ratio of 1:1.
[0019] Furthermore, the lengths of the first serpentine condenser tube 5 and the second serpentine condenser tube 11 are both 400 mm.
[0020] The working process and principle of the device are as follows: the reaction reagent contained in the three-necked flask 2 is carbon tetrachloride, and the reaction reagent contained in the constant pressure dropping funnel is concentrated sulfuric acid. The generated phosgene passes through the 90% concentrated sulfuric acid in the first wide-mouthed glass bottle 9 and the second wide-mouthed glass bottle 10 to remove the impurity sulfur trioxide, and then enters the collecting bottle 7. By adding a 400mm second serpentine condenser at the upper end of the collecting bottle 7, the contact area of the coolant is increased, and the phosgene yield is improved. The uncollected gas is absorbed by the 90% concentrated sulfuric acid in the third wide-mouthed glass bottle 12 at the end to absorb the overflowed sulfur trioxide gas and the 20% sodium hydroxide in the fourth wide-mouthed glass bottle 13 to absorb the overflowed phosgene.
[0021] The constant pressure dropping funnel 4 is used to keep the pressure in the reaction device stable during the entire synthesis process, so that the liquid flow rate is always uniform during the liquid separation process, which solves the safety problem that due to too fast reaction, the pressure in the reaction device is too high, the separating funnel cannot drip liquid, and the gas rushes out from the upper end of the separating funnel, forcing the reaction to be interrupted.
[0022] At the same time, the problem that the reaction rate fluctuates due to unstable pressure in the reaction device and the uncontrollable reaction rate, thereby making it impossible to collect the generated phosgene gas, is solved.
[0023] A 400mm serpentine condenser was added to the upper end of the collection device to increase the contact area between the coolant and the collected gas and control the laboratory temperature to be above 16°C. This solved the problem of the original device having a small cooling liquid area during the collection process and the fume hood temperature in winter being lower than the freezing point of impurities, resulting in low product yield and high impurities.
[0024] The purity of phosgene prepared by the above-mentioned device is 95%.
