Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing 2,4-dichlorotoluene by using parachlorotoluene. The method comprises the steps of (a) adding a chlorination catalyst; (b) chlorinating the parachlorotoluene; and (c) separating components. According to the method, a mixture of aluminum oxide, ferric chloride, aluminum trichloride and silicon dioxide is taken as the catalyst for a chlorination reaction, so that the selectivity for 2,4-dichlorotoluene is effectively promoted. The production of poly-chlorotoluene such as benzotrichloride and tetrachlorotoluene is effectively inhibited due to a low reaction temperature, and the yield of 2,4-dichlorotoluene is improved. Moreover, the method is simple and convenient; the operation is easy; the effects are good; and the product yield is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic chemistry and relates to a method for preparing 2,4-dichlorotoluene from p-chlorotoluene. Background technique [0002] 2,4-Dichlorotoluene is a colorless and transparent liquid. It is an important chemical raw material, mainly used in organic synthesis, pharmaceutical and dye industries, and is also a good high-boiling organic solvent.
