The invention relates to a method for synthesizing chlorinated n-
butane, which comprises the following steps of: adding n-butyl
alcohol and
hydrochloric acid into a synthesis kettle according to a
mass ratio of 1: 1.6-1: 1.7, and carrying out constant-temperature reaction at 90-100 DEG C under normal pressure; after the reaction is finished, feeding a synthetic reaction material into a
distillation tower, feeding a distilled crude chlorobutane product and water into a water segregator for phase separation, overflowing the crude chlorobutane product from an upper opening of the water segregator, feeding the crude chlorobutane product into a crude product tank, and enabling water to flow into a
wastewater recovery tank from a lower opening of the water segregator; feeding the crude chlorobutane product into a rectifying
tower for rectification and purification, enabling the rectified chlorobutane to flow into a
reflux tank, enabling the rectified chlorobutane to flow into a
storage tank after being sampled and analyzed to be qualified, and continuously feeding the unqualified chlorobutane into the rectifying
tower for repeated rectification until the unqualified chlorobutane is qualified; and carrying out
acid washing, alkali washing and
water washing on the qualified chlorobutane after rectification to obtain a chlorinated n-
butane product. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the chlorinated n-
butane can be continuously produced without adding any
chemical agent, the operation method is simple, the cost is low, the product yield is high, the purity of the obtained chlorinated n-butane product is greater than 99.5%, and the
impurity content of n-butyl
alcohol and
dibutyl ether is low.
