Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and in particular to a method for preparing o-difluorobenzene. Background Art

[0002] Aromatic fluorides play an important role in the fields of medicine, pesticides, energy and liquid crystals. The reason is that fluorine has a strong electronegativity and has a significant inhibitory or promoting effect on biological activity. There are three common synthesis methods, namely, diazotization fluorination of aromatic amines, halogen exchange fluorination and special fluorinating agent fluorination.

[0003] As an important intermediate, o-difluorobenzene can be used as a precursor of difluoronitrobenzene, which is a widely used target molecule and is often used in drug synthesis, such as the synthesis of linezolid, difluorophenyl salicylic acid and fluoroquinolone antibacterial agents. At present, its production method mainly uses the Halex reaction of o-dichlorobenzene to synthesize, and uses difluoroaniline or o-phenylenediamine to synthesize using the Balz-Schiemann reaction. Among them, the Balz-Schiemann reaction is a reaction in which an aromatic diazonium salt reacts with fluoroboric acid to generate a diazonium fluoroborate with low solubility, and the diazonium fluoroborate is cracked under heating or light to release nitrogen and produce an aromatic fluoride.

[0004] The Balz-Schiemann reaction does not require the introduction of other halogens and has high selectivity, but it has many problems such as: (1) the interaction between the mixed layer and the unmixed layer in the container; (2) the waste gas treatment process will produce acidic wastewater containing sodium fluoroborate and sodium borate; (3) uneven heating or hydrolysis of o-fluorophenyl diazonium fluoroborate will lead to uncontrollable thermal decomposition reactions and more by-products; (4) the reaction time is long and the yield is low.

[0005] Therefore, how to achieve efficient cracking of o-fluorobenzene diazonium fluoroborate to synthesize o-difluorobenzene has become a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention introduces microwave to enhance the cracking process of o-fluorophenyl diazonium fluoroborate.

[0011] The present invention introduces microwaves to act on polar molecules in a substance, so that the arrangement position of polar molecules changes rapidly, and friction generates heat. At the same time, the molecular chains in the substance are broken, which can accelerate the cracking process and promote the cracking reaction. Compared with the traditional heating method, the speed is faster, and the organic matter can be heated evenly without delayed reaction.
