    Ethyl p-aminobenzoate (ethyl-p-aminobenzoate), also known as ethyl 4-aminobenzoate, benzocaine (benzocaine), molecular formula is C9H11NO2, molecular weight is 165.
    2, structural formula is

    1.


    Product performance

    Colorless rhomboid crystals; melting point 88~90℃, boiling point 183~184℃(14×133.
    2Pa); stable in the air, odorless, bitter taste; slightly soluble in water, soluble in ethanol , chloroform , ether , olives Oil is also soluble in dilute acid; it is alkaline; it turns yellow when exposed to light
    .

    2.
    Production principle

    Under the catalysis of sulfuric acid, p-nitrobenzoic acid is esterified with ethanol, and the obtained ethyl p-nitrobenzoate is reduced with iron powder to obtain a finished product

    6.
    Production process

    Add 192kg of ethanol into the enamel esterification reactor, add 66.
    6kg of concentrated sulfuric acid while stirring, and control the temperature to be less than 50°C
    .


    When the kettle is cooled to 30°C, add 95.


    Add 500kg of water, 45kg of sodium chloride , 70kg of iron powder and 10kg of hydrochloric acid to the enamel reduction reaction gold
    .

    Stir and heat the temperature to 90°C, and activate the reaction for 1h
    .


    When the temperature is lowered to 85℃, add 100kg of ethyl p-nitrobenzoate into the kettle, add 20kg of iron powder, and keep the temperature at 90~95℃ and stir for 4~5h
