Chemical curve: R.I. for MDI at Ref. Temp. of 25˚C Application The most commonly used isocyanates for the production of PU are methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and toluene diisocyanate (TDI). If color and transparency are important, an aliphatic diisocyanate such as hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) is used. The first step in the production of polyurethane is the synthesis of the raw materials. The diisocyanate is typically produced from basic raw materials via nitration, hydrogenation and phosgenation. The feedstock and initial processing steps depend on the Introduction desired isocyanate, but all go through a phosgenation step. Polyurethanes (PUs) are a class of versatile materials with great potential for use in different applications. For instance, for the production of MDI, benzene and They are used in the manufacture of many different nitric acid are reacted to produce nitrobenzene. After items, such as paints, liquid coatings, elastomers, a hydrogeneration step, the nitrobenzene is converted insulators, elastics, foams and integral skins. to aniline.

A long and difficult search for a reasonable economic pathway to produce isocyanates by vapor-phase phosgenation of diphenylmethane diamine (MDA) in place of liquid-phase phosgenation of MDA has been developed and commercialized since our last report on isocyanates (PEP Report 1E) was published in August 1992. In this review, we investigate large-scale, single-train integrated technology and economics for the production of methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), including condensation of aniline with formaldehyde to produce MDA, production of phosgene from carbon monoxide and chlorine, gas-phase phosgenation of MDA to produce crude MDI, and separation/recovery of MDI products. The key gas-phase phosgenation step produces isocyanates from MDA at high pressure and temperature, enabling a significant shortening of residence time in the reactor. The rate determining step is the dissociation of the polymeric MDA–carbonyl chloride intermediate into polymeric MDI and HCl followed by HCl removal. A summary of the process economics for the production of 373 million lbs/yr of crude MDI and 336 million lbs/yr of polymeric MDI (PMDI) and 37 million lbs/yr of pure MDI for continuous vapor-phase isocyanate production shows that on a US Gulf Coast basis, the world-scale, single-train, integrated vapor-phase technology–based plant will meet plant gate costs.

  • Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just Like an Alkene, Benzene Has Clouds of  Electrons Above and Below Its Sigma Bond Framework
    Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just like an alkene, benzene has clouds of electrons above and below its sigma bond framework. Although the electrons are in a stable aromatic system, they are still available for reaction with strong electrophiles. This generates a carbocation which is resonance stabilized (but not aromatic). This cation is called a sigma complex because the electrophile is joined to the benzene ring through a new sigma bond. The sigma complex (also called an arenium ion) is not aromatic since it contains an sp3 carbon (which disrupts the required loop of p orbitals). Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page1 The loss of aromaticity required to form the sigma complex explains the highly endothermic nature of the first step. (That is why we require strong electrophiles for reaction). The sigma complex wishes to regain its aromaticity, and it may do so by either a reversal of the first step (i.e. regenerate the starting material) or by loss of the proton on the sp3 carbon (leading to a substitution product). When a reaction proceeds this way, it is electrophilic aromatic substitution. There are a wide variety of electrophiles that can be introduced into a benzene ring in this way, and so electrophilic aromatic substitution is a very important method for the synthesis of substituted aromatic compounds. Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page2 Bromination of Benzene Bromination follows the same general mechanism for the electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS). Bromine itself is not electrophilic enough to react with benzene. But the addition of a strong Lewis acid (electron pair acceptor), such as FeBr3, catalyses the reaction, and leads to the substitution product.

China (Received 31 July 2008 • accepted 27 December 2008) Abstract−Adsorption of aniline, benzene and pyridine from water on a copper oxide doped activated carbon (CuO/ AC) at 30 oC and oxidation behavior of the adsorbed pollutants over CuO/AC in a temperature range up to 500 oC are investigated in TG and tubular-reactor/MS systems. Results show that the AC has little activity towards oxidation of o the pollutants and CuO is the active oxidation site. Oxidation of aniline occurs at 231-349 C and yields mainly CO2, o H2O and N2. Oxidation of pyridine occurs at a narrower temperature range, 255-309 C, after a significant amount of desorption starting at 150 oC. Benzene desorbs at temperatures as low as 105 oC and shows no sign of oxidation. The result suggests that adsorption-catalytic dry oxidation is suitable only for the strongly adsorbed pollutants. Oxidation temperatures of CuO/AC for organic pollutants are higher than 200 oC and pollutants desorbing easily at tempera- tures below 200 oC cannot be treated by the method.

Ultrasonic velocity, density and viscosity values have been measured at 303 K in the ternary system of aniline + toluene + iso-butanol and thermo dynamical approach is applied to evaluate the molar volume, adiabatic compressibility, internal pressure, molar cohesive energy and their excess values. Results are interpreted in terms of molecular interactions between the components of the mixtures and compared with molecular interaction parameter that can highlight the role of aniline in the azeotropic destruction of the chosen binary. Observed excess values lend further support to the interactions found in the binary and ternary systems. The dipole type interaction existing between aniline and iso-butanol is found to be the predominant factor for destructing the azeotrope formation.

The spectral, thermal, morphological and electrochemical properties of PTSA doped polyaniline and its copolymer (An-co-8-ANSA) were studied and compared to elucidate the effect of the inclusion of 8-ANSA in the copolymer feed. The resultant copolymer showed better solubility and processibility but this approach usually results in the lowering of conductivity, hence the ratio of aniline and 8-ANSA in the copolymer feed was selected to 80:20. The room temperature conductivity of the PTSA doped polyaniline (PANI-PTS) and poly(An-co-8-ANSA) in 80:20 was found to be in the order of 1.74 S/cm to 9.77×10 −1 S/cm, respectively.

    CH 2280 Synthesis and Nitration of Acetanilide Materials From the Chemicals Hood: From the Stockroom (Blue Bin): Week 1: Week 1: Acetic anhydride ½” pea-sized stirbar Aniline Stirbar retriever Week 2: Week 2: Glacial acetic acid 1” stirbar Concentrated sulfuric acid Stirbar retriever 50/50 Nitric acid/ sulfuric acid solution Ethanol Sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution (squirtbottle) 9 cm large Buchner funnel This is another two-step experiment and takes two weeks. The first step is acetylation of aniline to form acetanilide. This is done the first week. The second step is nitration of acetanilide. You will do that reaction the second week. You will determine which isomer of nitroacetanilide you formed using melting point, infrared, and NMR spectroscopy. Procedure – Preparation of Acetanilide Place an ice bath on top of the stir plate in the hood. In the ice bath place a 50-mL Erlenmeyer flask containing 10 mL of acetic anhydride and a magnetic stir bar. Turn the stirring on but keep the heat OFF. Add 10 mL of aniline (CAUTION: see Safety Note 1) 1 mL at a time over 10 minutes. Pour the reaction mixture into a beaker containing a 100 mL of cold water. If a solid does not form immediately, scratch the walls of the beaker with a glass rod for a few minutes. Vacuum filter the crystals and allow them to dry until the next lab period. At that time, determine the melting point, IR, and NMR of the product. 1 Procedure – Nitration of Acetanilide Place 6.5 g of acetanilide in a 125-mL Erlenmeyer flask, add 10 mL of glacial acetic acid (CAUTION: strong irritant), and warm the flask on a steam bath until the acetanilide dissolves.

    STUDIES IN NITRATION. I395 STUDIES IN NITRATION, 111. NITRATION OF ANILINE AND OF CERTAIN OF ITS N-ALKYL, A;-ARYL AND N-ACYL DERIVATIVES. BY J. BISHOP TINGLEAND F. C. BLANCK. Received June 16,rgo8. Theoretical. The fact that aniline cannot be directly nitrated and that, under ordi- nary conditions, nitric acid converts it into tarry matter, is usually ac- counted for by stating that the acid attacks the amino group more read- ily than the benzene nucleus.2 Such an explanation cannot be accepted unreservedly, not only because it is devoid of experimental foundation, but also because of certain theoretical objections which may be urged against it. Among the latter may br mentioned the view, held by manv chemists, that “substitution” in the nucleus is really preceded by addi- tion or substitution in the side chain if one be present, or, addition in the nucleus itself, followed in each case by subsequent rearrangement. Further, the fact that, in general, the aromatic amine ni~ratcsare usually stable, whereas, the nitrites are either highly unstable or altogether in. capable of isolation suggests that nitrous acid may really be the ac.tive cause of the unfavorable result of direct nitration experiments. This view gains support from the well-known observations made in carrying out the diazo reaction; some resinous matter is always formed. and it is apt. to be the chief; or even the only tangible product of the experiment, unless the conditions are adjusted specially for each individual amine. In view of these considerations, it appeared to us that it would be worth while to reinvestigate the direct nitration of aniline, employing conditions which should exclude nitrous acid as completely as possible from the ma- terials employed, provision being also made for the speedy destruction or removal of any of this acid which might be formed during the course of the experiments.
