| production method | 1, deamination method?????? It is obtained by deamination of 2-amino -5-chlorobenzoic acid. 2. Hydrolysis of m-chloro-trichlorotoluene???? 40 parts of m-chloro-trichlorotoluene were added to 3100 parts of 1% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and reacted at 97~99 ℃ for 1.5h, with a yield of 98%. 3. Benzoic acid chloride method???????? Add 0.1mol of benzoic acid and 0.1mol of silver chloride to a mixture of 100ml of concentrated sulfuric acid and 15ml of water, add to 135ml of carbon tetrachloride dissolved 7.8g of chlorine under cooling, and stir for 3 hours to obtain m-chlorobenzoic acid and by-product dichlorobenzoic acid. 4. m-chlorotoluene oxidation method????? m-chlorotoluene was obtained by liquid phase catalytic oxidation at 95 ℃ in acetic acid containing Co(OAc)2 and sodium bromide in a yield of 95% ~ 96%. |
