    1.


    Product performance

    Colorless to pale yellow crystal; melting point 113~114℃; boiling point 279℃ (decomposition); relative density 1.
    270; soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol , ether and chloroform , soluble in water, sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide solution; Oxidized in the air, the color gradually darkens; poisonous
    .

    2.
    Production principle

    It is obtained by alkaline hydrolysis of p-nitrochlorobenzene and then acidification
    .

    Technical formula (kg/t)


    5.


    Main equipment

    Hydrolysis pot, crystallization pot, suction filter, storage tank
    .

    6.
    Production process

    Add 2320-2370L of 137-140g/L sodium hydroxide solution into the hydrolysis pot, and then add 600kg of molten p-nitrochlorobenzene
    .


    After heating, the temperature is raised to 150°C, the pressure in the pot is 0.


    7.
    Laboratory preparation method

    Add 62.
    8g of p-nitrochlorobenzene and 600mL of water into a 1.
    5L stainless steel autoclave, and add 86.
    5g of 35% sodium hydroxide solution under stirring
    .


    Cover the autoclave tightly, heat it to 140°C, increase the pressure to 0.


    Then, the filter cake was dissolved in 500 mL of hot water and boiled until the smell of p-nitrochlorobenzene disappeared
    .


    Filter while hot, acidify the filtrate with hydrochloric acid after cooling to precipitate crystals, and filter again
