Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a synthesis method of brominated triazine. BACKGROUND

[0002] Brominated triazine is a new type of environmentally friendly flame retardant as a bromine / nitrogen synergistic flame retardant, has superior flame retardant effect, and has a small dosage. Brominated triazine is often used in plastic products such as ABS, PBT and PC due to good thermal stability, and has high whiteness and good light resistance, and is a good upgrade and replacement product of decabromide.

[0003] At present, the mainstream production method of brominated triazine is to dissolve tribromophenol in an organic solvent, then react with a sodium hydroxide solution, add triethylamine for catalysis, then add cyanuric chloride, separate layers and wash after reaction for a period of time, and then crystallize and dry to obtain the product. The common problems are that cyanuric chloride is hydrolyzed, the utilization rate of raw materials is low, and the yield is low.

[0004] For example, patent CN 117903073A uses metal oxides instead of sodium hydroxide to reduce the hydrolysis of cyanuric chloride, but the reaction rate is reduced. Patent CN 113214175A uses batch addition of cyanuric chloride and dropwise addition of liquid alkali to reduce the hydrolysis of cyanuric chloride, which is complicated and difficult to control. Patent CN 115785011A reduces the hydrolysis of cyanuric chloride by controlling the pH of the reaction system through an online pH meter, which is complex and difficult to control the pH precision of the sodium hydroxide solution. In summary, we need a suitable method to fundamentally reduce the hydrolysis of cyanuric chloride to reduce byproducts while not affecting the reaction efficiency, and to improve the utilization rate of raw materials and the yield.
