The invention belongs to the
chemical engineering field, and particularly discloses a method for preparing 3,4-dichloro
bromobenzene. The method comprises steps of adding reduced
iron powder into the
raw material o-
dichlorobenzene, inletting
bromine water under certain pressure and temperature, and carrying out bromination reaction in a bromination kettle; carrying out multistage
crystallization on the crude bromized 3,4-dichloro
bromobenzene through solution, so as to purify the 3,4-dichloro
bromobenzene, wherein the crude bromized 3,4-dichloro bromobenzene is crystallized by at least
one stage, generally by
multiple stages, namely, from
one stage to three stages, so that a complete cycle of
crystallization and purification of the 3,4-dichloro bromobenzene product is formed. The method has the main beneficial effects that the product is not polluted by foreign solvents or other materials, for the byproduct 2,3- dichloro bromobenzene generated in preparation of 3,4-dichloro bromobenzene through o-
dichlorobenzene is used as the
solvent; particularly, reduction of the yield of 3,4-dichloro bromobenzene caused by intensified
side reaction of the 2,3- dichloro bromobenzene due to rectification high temperature is avoided; the method has the characteristics of high yield of the product, high purity and high production efficiency.
