The invention belongs to the field of
chemical production, and particularly relates to a
propiconazole purification method. The method comprises the following steps: dissolving a
propiconazole crude product in a
solvent, adding an extracting agent, water and acid to react, layering after the reaction, carrying out reduced pressure
distillation to remove the
solvent in an upper organic phase layer to obtain crude
propiconazole, and carrying out reduced pressure
distillation to obtain a refined propiconazole product; the
solvent is
toluene or
xylene, the extracting agent is
oleic acid or
stearic acid, and the acid is
hydrochloric acid or
nitric acid. According to the high-yield and high-content propiconazole purification method provided by the invention, after
toluene or
xylene is added into a propiconazole crude product for
dissolution,
hydrochloric acid or
nitric acid and water are added for acidification to form salt, an
organic layer with high propiconazole isomer content is located at the lowest layer, an
organic layer with high propiconazole content is located at the uppermost layer, and particularly, after
oleic acid or
stearic acid is added, the propiconazole isomer content is increased. The distribution of propiconazole in the upper
organic layer is improved, and the yield of propiconazole is improved.
