The invention discloses a novel preparation method of dimethyl diethyl
ammonium chloride. The method comprises the following specific steps: adding
diethylamine hydrochloride,
dimethyl carbonate and a reaction
solvent into a pressure reaction kettle, reacting at 90-180 DEG C for 8-24 hours, cooling to release gas produced by the reaction when the pressure of the reaction kettle reaches a certain value during the reaction, and concentrating, crystallizing, filtering and
drying the reaction liquid after the reaction is finished, thereby obtaining the
methylation and quaternization of amines. The high-purity dimethyl diethyl
ammonium chloride is obtained. According to the method, expensive reagents N, N-dimethylethylamine and N, N-diethyl
methylamine are not used, meanwhile, reagents
chloroethane and
chloromethane which are high in harm and
toxicity are also not used, the problem that the pressure of a reaction kettle is too high in the
methylation process of the reaction is solved by releasing gas generated in the reaction process, the obtained product is high in purity, the yield is high, and the method is suitable for industrial production. And the
halogen ion and
metal ion residues are very low. The novel method for preparing dimethyl diethyl
ammonium chloride is green, safe, low in cost and high in product quality.
