Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ultraviolet absorber synthesis, and a method for synthesizing 2,4-bis(4-biphenyl)-6-(2',4'-dihydroxy)phenyl-1,3,5-triazine. Background Technology

[0002] 2,4-Bis(4-biphenyl)-6-(2',4'-dihydroxy)phenyl-1,3,5-triazine is an organic chemical reagent with excellent ultraviolet absorption and thermal stability, widely used in polymer materials, light stabilizers, liquid crystal display materials, and organic optoelectronic functional materials. Its molecular structure contains multiple aromatic rings and hydroxyl functional groups, endowing it with good conjugation effects and hydrogen bonding capabilities, thus exhibiting significant advantages in ultraviolet shielding and free radical scavenging.

[0003] Currently, the synthesis of these triazine derivatives typically employs a nucleophilic substitution reaction pathway, starting with cyanuric chloride and proceeding with stepwise substitution reactions with 4-biphenol and 2,4-dihydroxyphenylboronic acid under alkaline conditions. However, existing synthetic methods generally suffer from the following problems: (1) poor reaction selectivity, with mono- and di-substituted byproducts easily generated during multi-step substitution, affecting the purity of the target product; (2) demanding reaction conditions, such as requiring low-temperature control and strict anhydrous operation, which limits industrial scale-up.

[0004] Furthermore, due to the strong coordination ability and acidity of the 2,4-dihydroxyphenyl unit, it is prone to oxidation or self-condensation side reactions in alkaline media, further reducing the yield and purity of the target product. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an efficient, controllable, and environmentally friendly synthetic process that can significantly improve the yield and purity of 2,4-bis(4-biphenyl)-6-(2',4'-dihydroxy)phenyl-1,3,5-triazine while ensuring high regioselectivity and chemoselectivity.

[0007] Furthermore, the catalyst for the para-alkylation reaction is nickel(II) ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, the catalyst promoter is tetrahydroxydiboron, the solvent is dimethyl sulfoxide, the base is potassium carbonate, the reaction temperature is 75~85℃, and the reaction time is 5~7h.

[0008] Further, the molar ratio of biphenyl, 2-amino-4,6-dichlorotriazine, nickel(II) ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, tetrahydroxydiboron, and potassium carbonate is (3~4):1:(0.3~0.4):(0.6~0.8):(6~8).

[0009] Furthermore, the temperature of the hot toluene is 58~62℃, and the solvent used for recrystallization is a mixture of n-hexane and ethyl acetate with a volume ratio of 9:1.

[0010] Further, the metal hydroxide includes sodium hydroxide, the molar ratio of intermediate B to metal hydroxide is 1:(3~4); the reaction temperature is 145~150℃; and the reaction time is 2.5~3.5h.

[0011] Furthermore, the iodizing agent in the iodination reaction is sodium iodide, the catalyst is cerium trichloride heptahydrate, the solvent is acetonitrile, and the reaction conditions are reflux for 19-21 hours.

[0012] Furthermore, the molar ratio of sodium iodide, cerium trichloride heptahydrate, and intermediate C is (1~1.2):(1.3~1.5):1.

[0013] Furthermore, the second catalyst is tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium dichloride.

[0014] Furthermore, the solvent for the ortho-alkylation reaction is a mixed solution of N,N-dimethylformamide and methanol in a volume ratio of 4:1; potassium carbonate and tetrabutylammonium iodide are also added during the ortho-alkylation reaction; the ortho-alkylation reaction conditions are nitrogen protection and light irradiation at room temperature, wherein the reaction time is 15-20 h and the wavelength of the light source is 450-480 nm.

[0015] Further, the molar ratio of resorcinol, intermediate D, potassium carbonate, tetrabutylammonium iodide, and the second catalyst is 0.6:(0.6~0.72):(2.5~2.9):(0.8~1.0):(0.0040~0.0050).

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) In the synthesis of 2,4-bis(4-biphenyl)-6-(2',4'-dihydroxy)phenyl-1,3,5-triazine of the present invention, biphenyl and 2-amino-4,6-dichlorotriazine are first used as raw materials for para-alkylation reaction. The chlorine atom on the triazine ring acts as a good leaving group, promoting the introduction of triazine structure in the para position of biphenyl to obtain intermediate mixture, effectively controlling reaction selectivity and avoiding over-substitution or side reactions. The intermediate mixture mainly includes intermediate A and intermediate B. The above intermediate mixture is dissolved in hot toluene to saturation, and crystallization purification is carried out by utilizing the difference in solubility of different components in hot / cold toluene. After standing and cooling to room temperature, intermediate B precipitates preferentially due to its lower polarity and lower solubility. High-purity solid intermediate B can be obtained by filtration. The filtrate is mainly enriched with intermediate A, which has higher polarity and higher solubility. After concentration, Further purification by recrystallization yields pure intermediate A. Intermediate A is then reintroduced into the previous para-alkylation reaction, reacting with another molecule of biphenyl to generate intermediate B, thereby improving raw material utilization and reducing waste emissions, thus increasing product yield. Next, intermediate B reacts with a metal hydroxide to hydrolyze the amino group in intermediate B to form intermediate C containing an alcohol hydroxyl group. Then, intermediate C containing the alcohol hydroxyl group undergoes an iodination reaction to form an iodide intermediate D. Finally, intermediate D undergoes an ortho-alkylation reaction with resorcinol under the action of a second catalyst to obtain 2,4-bis(4-biphenyl)-6-(2',4'-dihydroxy)phenyl-1,3,5-triazine. The 2,4-bis(4-biphenyl)-6-(2',4'-dihydroxy)phenyl-1,3,5-triazine prepared by this invention has high yield and purity.

[0017] (2) The catalyst for the para-alkylation reaction of the present invention is nickel(II) ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, the catalyst promoter is tetrahydroxydiboron, the solvent is dimethyl sulfoxide, the base is potassium carbonate, the reaction temperature is 75~85℃, and the reaction time is 5~7h. Under these conditions, the chlorine on 2-amino-4,6-dichlorotriazine undergoes a highly selective electrophilic substitution reaction with biphenyl at the para position, which significantly reduces the formation of byproducts such as ortho-substitution and meta-substitution, and initially improves the yield and purity of the product.

[0018] (3) The molar ratio of biphenyl and 2-amino-4,6-dichlorotriazine in this invention is (3~4):1. The excess biphenyl not only acts as a reactant but also plays a diluting role, effectively reducing the probability of interaction between 2-amino-4,6-dichlorotriazine molecules or intermediates, thereby significantly inhibiting the formation of complex byproducts such as multiple chlorine atoms on the triazine ring being continuously substituted by different aryl groups. At the same time, the excess biphenyl helps to promote the substitution reaction to proceed in the forward direction, increasing the yield of the target intermediate B, and thus improving the yield and purity of the product.

[0019] (4) The catalyst for the ortho-alkylation reaction of the present invention is ruthenium tris(2,2'-bipyridine)dichloride. Under illumination with a light source wavelength of 450~480nm, ruthenium tris(2,2'-bipyridine)dichloride is converted to an excited state. The excited state of ruthenium tris(2,2'-bipyridine)dichloride is oxidized by intermediate D, and a tetravalent ruthenium tris(2,2'-bipyridine)dichloride and a triazine radical are generated through single electron transfer. The electron-deficient triazine radical adds to the electron-rich intermediate to obtain a triazine-containing resorcinol radical. Then, in a high-valence intermediate... Under the oxidation of tri(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium dichloride, the resorcinol radical containing triazine undergoes electron transfer transformation and deprotonation in the presence of potassium carbonate. This improves the selectivity of the ortho-alkylation reaction of intermediate D and resorcinol, thereby reducing byproducts and increasing the yield of 2,4-bis(4-biphenyl)-6-(2',4'-dihydroxy)phenyl-1,3,5-triazine. Moreover, this reaction can be carried out under ambient temperature and light conditions, using clean energy as the reaction conditions, which effectively reduces energy consumption in the production process.
