摘要:
This invention relates to a process for the preparation of 2-(methylthiomethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl) aniline, [MTA], from ortho-aminobenzotrifluoride, (OABT), employing a single solvent transformation via a sulfilimine intermediate. A sulfilimine hydrochloride salt is prepared by the oxidative addition of dimethyl sulfide to OABT in the presence of N-chlorosuccinimide. Neutralization of the sulfilimine hydrochloride salt with aqueous sodium hydroxide followed by phase separation results in an organic phase containing free sulfilimine and an aqueous phase generally containing succinimide and/or sodium succinimide. In a preferred embodiment the phase separation is performed in such a manner to leave a catalytic amount of succinimide in the organic phase. The free sulfilimine catalytically rearranges at moderate temperatures in the presence of this succinimide catalyst to form MTA. The aqueous phase separated after neutralization of the sulfilimine hydrochloride salt contains succinimide and/or sodium succinimide which may be converted by the action of chlorine to N-chlorosuccinimide which in turn may be recycled to the first step in the process.

摘要:
Various substituted ortho-alkyl anilines are prepared by electrolytic desulfurization of various benzyl sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones, e.g. 2-methyl-6-trifluoromethylaniline is prepared from 2-amino-3-trifluoromethylbenzyl sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones. The processes are conducted in concentrated aqueous quaternary ammonium hydroxide, as well as in aprotic media. The substituted anilines obtained are useful as intermediates for herbicide compounds.

摘要:
This invention relates to a process for the preparation of ortho-aminobenzotrifluoride (OABT) from benzotrifluoride (BTF). The process provides an overall route employing non-isolation of intermediates which can be run smoothly and which results in the preparation of OABT in high yields with less contamination. This process includes a catalytic halogenation step in which BTF is converted to meta-halo BTF and other mono and di-halo isomers of BTF followed by nitration in the same reaction vessel under conditions which do not favor nitration of the di-halo isomers of BTF to produce a mixture which predominates in 5-halo-2-nitro BTF. In the final step the 5-halo-2-nitro BTF present is reduced and hydrodehalogenated with H.sub.2 in the presence of a catalyst to form OABT. Recyclable BTF is also obtained from the final reaction.
