[0003]

[0004] The synthesis of 1-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propyl-2-keto-methoxy oxime ether includes the following methods:

[0005] The method of WO2010063700 is as follows:

[0006]

[0007] This method requires the use of butyl lithium, diisopropylamine and N,N-dimethylformamide to react at -78°C, which is relatively dangerous, costly, uses iron powder, produces a large amount of solid waste, and is difficult to industrialize.

[0008] The methods of WO2013127764 and WO2013127441 are as follows:

[0009]

[0010] The raw materials used in this route and method, ethyl propylene acetate and tert-butyl nitrite, are relatively expensive, and the reaction yields are 48% and 58% respectively. The reaction has safety risks, low yields, and a lot of three wastes.

[0011] Patent CN108610290A uses p-chloroaniline as the starting material, and the synthesis method is as follows:

[0012]

[0013] Although this method can reduce costs, the raw materials used, ethyl propylene acetate and tert-butyl nitrite, are relatively expensive and also involve diazotization. Both steps involve safety issues, production and manufacturing, and equipment investment.

[0014] Patent CN113004131A uses 2,4,6-trichlorotoluene and chlorination reagent as raw materials, and the synthesis method is as follows:

[0015]

[0016] The 2,4,6-trichlorotoluene in this method is expensive and difficult to obtain. The self-synthesis of acetylenic magnesium halide requires acetylene and n-butylmagnesium chloride to prepare. Acetylene is a hazardous chemical with harsh storage and use conditions and high risk. At the same time, the Grignard reaction has high requirements for equipment heat exchange.

[0017] Patent CN117326921A uses trichlorobenzene as raw material for synthesis, and the synthesis method is as follows:

[0018]

[0019] The raw material trichlorobenzene of this method is also relatively expensive and difficult to obtain, and the catalysts used in each step are also uncommon, and the reaction time is also relatively long.

[0020] Patent CN115703701A uses a microchannel to synthesize 1-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propyl-2-one using 2,4,6-trichloroaniline, organic nitrite, and isopropenyl acetate. This method actually has certain technical challenges for production scale-up. Summary of the invention

During the control, the raw material was >97%. No reaction occurred.

[0135] As can be seen from the above embodiments and comparative examples, in comparative example 1, due to the high heating temperature of the nitroxyl ion in the coupling reaction of step (2), the nitroxyl ion decomposition cannot be stably present, so the yield of 1-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propyl-2-ketone-oxime is significantly reduced. In comparative example 2, due to the small amount of copper sulfate catalyst used in the coupling reaction of step (2), the coupling reaction cannot compete with the deamination reaction, so the yield of 1-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propyl-2-ketone-oxime is significantly reduced. In comparative example 3, due to the use of sodium methoxide as the base in the oximation reaction of step (3), the hydroxylamine hydrochloride decomposes too quickly and cannot react in time, so the yield of 1-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propyl-2-ketone-oxime is significantly reduced. In comparative example 4, due to the use of toluene instead of methanol in the methylation reaction of step (4), the solubility of methyl chloride is small and the concentration is too dilute to induce the reaction, so the methylation reaction cannot occur. Therefore, the specific reaction conditions of the present invention can ensure that the reaction yield is above 90%. After the conditions of the comparative example are changed, the reaction yield is significantly affected. The present invention uses aniline as a raw material to prepare 1-(2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl)-propyl-2-keto-methoxy oxime ether, simplifies the operation, reduces pollution, and has good industrial application value. At the same time, the conversion rate and yield are also high, and it has a good prospect.

[0136] The above examples are only for illustrating the technical concept and technical features of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any equivalent transformation or modification made according to the essence of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
