Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of pesticide and insecticide prochloraz, and particularly relates to a method and device for preparing prochloraz by adopting microfluidic field reaction technology. Background Art

[0002] Prochloraz, chemically named N-propyl-N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl)-1H-imidazole-1-carboxamide, is a highly effective broad-spectrum imidazole fungicide. It was synthesized by Boots., Ltd. in the UK in 1977 and launched on the market in 1977. It works by inhibiting the biosynthesis of sterols, has a systemic conduction effect in plants, has strong penetration, good rapidity, high activity, a broad fungicide spectrum, a long lasting effect, and a low dosage. It has both protective, therapeutic and eradication effects. It is widely used in crop production.

[0003] There are many methods for synthesizing prochloraz, and the process routes are complicated. Initially, for example, US Patent US 3991071 used dibromoethane as the raw material, which was highly toxic, expensive, and a carcinogen. At the end of the last century, domestic manufacturers developed the synthesis of prochloraz using dichloroethane and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol as the main raw materials. For example, patents CN 1246473 and CN101402608A both introduced it. At present, this route is basically adopted in China, and the final product prochloraz is obtained by etherification of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol and 1,2-dichloroethane in the presence of sodium hydroxide, amination with n-propylamine, chlorination, and condensation. However, the autoclave process has the disadvantages of long reaction time, high energy consumption, and low purity. As the domestic prochloraz market share continues to increase, the export volume of technical drugs increases year by year, and the demand for high-purity prochloraz technical drugs increases. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a high-yield, low-cost, continuous flow production process for prochloraz. Summary of the invention

[0004] Purpose of the invention: The present invention provides a method and device for preparing prochloraz using microfluidic field reaction technology, which changes the autoclave process of prochloraz into a microfluidic field process and matches new internal components and a microfluidic field dynamic reactor. The method has short reaction time, low energy consumption, high yield and is suitable for industrial continuous production.

[0005] Technical solution: In order to achieve the above-mentioned invention object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A method for preparing prochloraz using microfluidic field reaction technology comprises the following steps:

[0007] (1) dissolving 2,4,6-trichlorophenol with liquid alkali and then pumping the mixture with excess 1,2-dichloroethane into a micro-flow field tubular reactor with internal components in a reaction pipeline, and subjecting the reaction to high temperature to obtain 2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl chloride;

[0008] (2) dissolving 2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl chloride in n-propylamine, pumping a single stream into a microfluidic tubular reactor with internal components in a reaction pipeline, and reacting under high temperature and high pressure to obtain N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl)propylamine;

[0009] (3) N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl)propylamine is dissolved in an organic solvent, the solid light solution is dissolved in an organic solvent and triethylamine is added, the two solutions are pumped into a microfluidic dynamic reactor respectively, the solid-liquid mixture is squeezed out after the reaction, filtered, and the filtrate is directly used in the next step;.

[0010] (4) dissolving imidazole in an organic solvent, adding triethylamine, and pumping the imidazole and the filtrate obtained in step (3) into a microfluidic field dynamic reactor respectively. After the reaction, the solid-liquid mixture is squeezed out, filtered, washed, and desolventized to obtain pure N-propyl-N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl)-1H-imidazole-1-carboxamide (imidazole).

[0011] The synthetic route of prochloraz is as follows:

[0012]

[0013] As a preference:

[0014] In step (1), the two phases are immiscible. As a microchannel reaction, a certain linear velocity is ensured to enhance the mixing of the two phases, and the preferred fluid linear velocity is above 0.1 m / s; the high temperature is 140-170°C, and the preferred temperature is 160°C.

[0015] In step (1), in the alkali solution dissolving 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, the equivalent ratio of sodium hydroxide to 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is 1:1 to 1:1.5, and the mass ratio of water to 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is 1:1.5 to 1:2. Preferably, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol: sodium hydroxide: water = 1 eq: 1.0 eq: 1.5 vol.

[0016] In step (1), the equivalent ratio of 1,2-dichloroethane to 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is 4:1 to 8:1. Preferably, the equivalent ratio of 1,2-dichloroethane to 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is 4:1.

[0017] In step (1), the reaction solution stays in the reactor for 5 to 20 minutes, preferably 8 minutes.

[0018] The reaction in step (2) is amination of 2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl chloride directly in n-propylamine, which is both a solvent and a reagent, and high temperature and high pressure promote the reaction. Considering safety factors, the high temperature is 120-140° C., preferably 130° C., and the pressure is 0.9 MPa-1.5 MPa, preferably 1.2 MPa.

[0019] In step (2), the equivalent ratio of 2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl chloride to n-propylamine is 1:5 to 1:10, preferably 1:6. In step (2), the residence time of the reaction solution in the reactor is 5 to 20 minutes, preferably 10 minutes.

[0020] In step (3), triethylamine is used as an acid binding agent to promote the reaction. However, in order to generate triethylamine hydrochloride solid during the reaction, a microfluidic field dynamic reactor is required to extrude the solid-liquid mixed reaction solution.

[0021] In step (3), the equivalent ratio of N-(2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyethyl)propylamine to solid light is 1:0.3-1:0.4, preferably 1:0.36; the amount of triethylamine is 1.0-1.1 eq, preferably 1.0 eq; and the reaction temperature is 80-100°C, preferably 85°C.

[0022] In step (3), the reaction solution stays in the reactor for 2 to 10 minutes, preferably 2.5 minutes.

[0023] In step (4), triethylamine is also used as an acid binding agent. During the reaction, triethylamine hydrochloride solid is produced. Therefore, a microfluidic dynamic reactor is used to extrude the solid-liquid mixed reaction liquid.

[0024] In step (4), the imidazole equivalent is 1.0 to 1.1 eq, preferably 1.0 eq; the triethylamine equivalent is 1.0 to 1.1 eq, preferably 1.0 eq; and the reaction temperature is 80 to 100° C., preferably 85° C.

[0025] In step (4), the reaction solution stays in the reactor for 5 to 20 minutes, preferably for 10 minutes.

[0026] Among them, the internal components can adopt new internal components, which have better mass transfer and heat transfer effects, and greatly improve the reaction rate and product conversion rate.

[0027] The present invention also provides an internal component for preparing prochloraz using microfluidic reaction technology, comprising an integrated grid structure and a spiral structure, wherein the grid structure and the spiral structure are arranged at intervals, and the grid structure is formed by cross-connecting strip-shaped plate-type unit sheets at a certain angle. When used, the internal component is placed in a reaction tube, and the tube and the internal component are welded at the ends. The working principle is to use two different structures in the internal component to make the fluid turbulence more intense, thereby increasing its mass transfer and heat transfer effect and improving the reaction efficiency.

[0028] The present invention also provides a microfluidic field dynamic reactor for preparing prochloraz, comprising a transmission motor, a reducer and a screw reactor, wherein a stirring paddle is arranged inside the screw reactor, a heat exchange jacket is arranged outside the screw reactor, and a spiral blade is arranged in the middle section of the stirring paddle; the working principle is to use the spiral blade to push the material axially, and at the same time, a stirring blade is added in the middle to stir the material during the transmission process, and the spiral is changed to straight teeth at the discharge port to make the material discharge smoother.

[0029] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0030] (1) The preparation method of prochloraz of the present invention has short reaction time, low energy consumption, short production cycle and high efficiency;
