Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of organic chemistry, and in particular to a method for synthesizing 2-amino-4-nitrophenol. Background Art

[0002] 2-Amino-4-nitrophenol is an important organic chemical synthesis intermediate, widely used in the preparation of dyes and medicines. For example, the synthesis of reactive dye black series, antihypertensive drug acebutolol, 2-butyl-6-nitroindole, etc. all require 2-amino-4-nitrophenol as an intermediate.

[0003] In the prior art, the preparation method of 2-amino-4-nitrophenol mainly includes selective chemical reduction, selective electrochemical reduction and selective catalytic hydrogenation reduction. However, due to factors such as high production cost and lack of electrochemical facilities, the selective electrochemical reduction method is not yet at an industrial level. Using hydrazine hydrate as a reducing agent to selectively reduce 2,4-dinitrophenol to 2-amino-4-nitrophenol solves the technical problem of large pollution in traditional reduction processes to a certain extent, but hydrazine hydrate is a highly toxic compound, highly corrosive, and expensive, and is not suitable for large-scale production and use in the field of fine chemicals.

[0004] The prior art also discloses a method for synthesizing 2-amino-4-nitrophenol by using 5-nitro-2-methoxyaniline as a main raw material, 70-99% acetic acid as a solvent, reflux conditions, and 40% hydroiodic acid to catalyze the breaking of the carbon-oxygen bond of the methoxy group in the molecular structure of 5-nitro-2-methoxyaniline. However, after the reaction is completed, acetic acid needs to be recovered under high temperature and reduced pressure conditions. This method has high energy consumption, wastewater containing hydroiodic acid is difficult to treat, and the main raw material 5-nitro-2-methoxyaniline is not easy to obtain, so it is not suitable for industrialization.
