Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, and in particular to a method for preparing 2,2'-diaminobiphenyl. Background Art
[0002] 2,2'-Diaminobiphenyl is an important intermediate of new materials. In the prior art, the preparation process of 2,2'-diaminobiphenyl mainly includes: 1. o-iodoaniline undergoes Ullmann reaction (Ullmann) for coupling under copper catalysis. This method uses the iodide o-iodoaniline, and the raw material is more expensive than the product, so this route has only theoretical value and no practical value; 2. 2,2'-dinitrobiphenyl is reduced to obtain 2,2'-diaminobiphenyl. This route uses the raw material 2,2'-dinitrobiphenyl. Since biphenyl nitration mainly obtains 4,4'-dinitrobiphenyl, 2,2'-dinitrobiphenyl is only a small amount of by-product, so the source is small and the cost is high. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new synthesis route for 2,2'-diaminobiphenyl, and it is of great research value to use o-chloroaniline, which is widely available and cheap, as a raw material.
