Abstract

A kind of synthetic method of m-trifluoromethyl benzyl nitrile comprises two reaction steps: the first step is a chloromethylation reaction, the second step is a cyanation reaction, and the first step reaction is trifluoromethylbenzene, Paraformaldehyde and chlorosulfonic acid are raw materials, react in the presence of mineral acids to generate m-trifluoromethyl chloromethylbenzene; in the second step reaction, gas chromatography analysis is used to control the organic phase impurity content to be lower than 3%, which is beneficial to the reaction Yield improvement. The method has the advantages of easy-to-obtain production raw materials, simple operation, convenient control, high reaction yield, low production cost, reduced environmental pollution, etc., and is a synthetic method suitable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the synthetic method of organic fluorine compound, is specifically about the synthetic method of m-trifluoromethyl benzyl nitrile. Background technique [0002] m-Trifluoromethylphenylacetonitrile belongs to a kind of fluorinated aromatic chemical products. In the field of pesticide synthesis, it can be used to prepare herbicides; in the field of pharmaceutical production, it can be used to synthesize antibacterial drugs, weight loss drugs and coronary vasodilators. [0003] Existing technical reports mainly contain the synthetic methods of the following several m-trifluoromethyl benzyl nitriles. [0004] In 1979, the synthetic method of the m-trifluoromethyl phenylacetonitrile reported in U.S. The Dow Chemical Company patent US 4,144,265 was to use trifluoromethylbenzene, chloromethyl methyl ether and chlorosulfonic acid as raw materials to prepare m-trifluoromethyl phenylacetonitrile Methyl chloromethyl benzene, und...
