2-Nitro-5-chloroaniline is an important pharmaceutical and veterinary drug intermediate. It has been applied in the upgraded product of veterinary drug albendazole-fenbendazole, and has a broad market prospect.
Add 2.46mol of 2,4-dichloronitrobenzene, 7.72mol of toluene to a 3L autoclave, seal the autoclave, replace the air with nitrogen, then pass in 14.1mol of liquid ammonia, increase the temperature to 160℃, continue the reaction for 8h, and then lower the temperature to 40℃, drain the excess ammonia gas, open the kettle, add the obtained solid-liquid mixture to 800mL of water, continue to cool to 10℃, filter, add the resulting filter cake to the water, continue beating and filtering, the obtained solid is crystallized with methanol to obtain 388g , yield 91.2%, the purity of the liquid phase external standard is 99.5%.
5-Chloro-2-nitroaniline was used in the synthesis of 5-(4-substituted piperazin-1-yl)-2-nitroanilines and 5-(4-substituted piperazin-1-yl)benzimidazole-2-carbamates.
The coupling of divinylbenzene cross-linked polystyrene with 5-chloro-2-nitroaniline followed by oxidative decyanation afforded benzophenone.
