Aniline 10.07.2020.Pdf Aniline Aniline, an organic base used to make dyes, drugs, explosives, plastics, and photographic and rubber chemicals. Aniline was first obtained in 1826 by the destructive distillation of indigo. Its name is taken from the specific name of the indigo-yielding plant Indigofera anil (Indigofera suffruticosa); its chemical formula is C6H5NH2. Aniline is prepared commercially by the catalytic hydrogenation of nitrobenzene or by the action of ammonia on chlorobenzene. The reduction of nitrobenzene can also be carried out with iron borings in aqueous acid. When aniline is heated with organic acids, it gives amides, called anilides, such as acetanilide from aniline and acetic acid. Monomethylaniline and dimethylaniline can be prepared from aniline and methyl alcohol. Catalytic reduction of aniline yields cyclohexylamine. Various oxidizing agents convert aniline to quinone, azobenzene, nitrosobenzene, p- aminophenol, and the phenazine dye aniline black. Formula: C6H5NH2 Molar mass: 93.13 g/mol IUPAC ID: Phenylamine Boiling point: 184.1 °C Density: 1.02 g/cm³ Melting point: -6.3 °C Preparation:- First, benzene is nitrated with a concentrated mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid at 50 to 60 °C to yield nitrobenzene. The nitrobenzene is then hydrogenated (typically at 200–300 °C) in the presence of metal catalysts: The reduction of nitrobenzene to aniline was first performed by Nikolay Zinin in 1842, using inorganic sulfide as a reductant (Zinin reaction). The reduction of nitrobenzene to aniline was also performed as part of reductions by Antoine Béchamp in 1854, using iron as the reductant (Bechamp reduction). Aniline can alternatively be prepared from ammonia and phenol derived from the cumene process. In commerce, three brands of aniline are distinguished: aniline oil for blue, which is pure aniline; aniline oil for red, a mixture of equimolecular quantities of aniline and ortho- and para-toluidines; and aniline oil for safranine, which contains aniline and ortho-toluidine and is obtained from the distillate (échappés) of the fuchsine fusion. Related aniline derivatives:- Many analogues of aniline are known where the phenyl group is further substituted. These include toluidines, xylidines, chloroanilines, aminobenzoic acids, nitroanilines, and many others. They often are prepared by nitration of the substituted aromatic compounds followed by reduction. For example, this approach is used to convert toluene into toluidines and chlorobenzene into 4-chloroaniline.[6] Alternatively, using Buchwald-Hartwig coupling or Ullmann reaction approaches, aryl halides can be aminated with aqueous or gaseous ammonia. Reaction:- The chemistry of aniline is rich because the compound has been cheaply available for many years. Below are some classes of its reactions. Oxidation:- The oxidation of aniline has been heavily investigated, and can result in reactions localized at nitrogen or more commonly results in the formation of new C-N bonds. In alkaline solution, azobenzene results, whereas arsenic acid produces the violet-coloring matter violaniline. Chromic acid converts it into quinone, whereas chlorates, in the presence of certain metallic salts (especially of vanadium), give aniline black. Hydrochloric acid and potassium chlorate give chloranil. Potassium permanganate in neutral solution oxidizes it to nitrobenzene; in alkaline solution to azobenzene, ammonia, and oxalic acid; in acid solution to aniline black. Hypochlorous acid gives 4-aminophenol and para-amino diphenylamine. Oxidation with persulfate affords a variety of polyanilines. These polymers exhibit rich redox and acid-base properties. Polyanilines can form upon oxidation of aniline. Electrophilic reactions at carbon:- Like phenols, aniline derivatives are highly susceptible to electrophilic substitution reactions. Its high reactivity reflects that it is an enamine, which enhances the electron-donating ability of the ring. For example, reaction of aniline with sulfuric acid at 180 °C produces sulfanilic acid, H2NC6H4SO3H. If bromine water is added to aniline, the bromine water is decolourised and a white precipitate of 2,4,6-tribromoaniline is formed. To generate the mono-substituted product, a protection with acetyl chloride is required: Aniline can react with bromine even in room temperatures in water. Acetyl chloride is added to prevent tribromination. The reaction to form 4-bromoaniline is to protect the amine with acetyl chloride, then hydrolyse back to reform aniline. The largest scale industrial reaction of aniline involves its alkylation with formaldehyde. An idealized equation is shown: 2 C6H5NH2 + CH2O → CH2(C6H4NH2)2 + H2O The resulting diamine is the precursor to 4,4'-MDI and related diisocyanates. Reactions at nitrogen:- Basicity:- Aniline is a weak base. Aromatic amines such as aniline are, in general, much weaker bases than aliphatic amines. Aniline reacts with strong acids to form anilinium (or phenylammonium) + ion (C6H5-NH3 ). Traditionally, the weak basicity of aniline is attributed to a combination of inductive effect from the more electronegative sp2 carbon and resonance effects, as the lone pair on the nitrogen is partially delocalized into the pi system of the benzene ring. The nitrogen's electron was delocalized to the ring. This is why that aniline is less basic than most amines. Missing in such analysis is consideration of solvation. Aniline is, for example, more basic than ammonia in the gas phase, but ten thousand times less so in aqueous solution. Acylation:- Aniline reacts with acyl chlorides such as acetyl chloride to give amides. The amides formed from aniline are sometimes called anilides, for example CH3-CO-NH-C6H5 is acetanilide. At high temperatures aniline and carboxylic acids react to give the anilides. N-Alkylation:- N-Methylation of aniline with methanol at elevated temperatures over acid catalysts gives N- methylaniline and dimethylaniline: C6H5NH2 + 2 CH3OH → C6H5N(CH3)2 + 2H2O N-Methylaniline and dimethylaniline are colorless liquids with boiling points of 193–195 °C and 192 °C, respectively. These derivatives are of importance in the color industry. Aniline combines directly with alkyl iodides to form secondary and tertiary amines. Carbon disulfide derivatives:- Boiled with carbon disulfide, it gives sulfocarbanilide (diphenylthiourea) (CS(NHC6H5)2), which may be decomposed into phenyl isothiocyanate (C6H5CNS), and triphenyl guanidine (C6H5N=C(NHC6H5)2) Diazotization- Aniline and its ring-substituted derivatives react with nitrous acid to form diazonium salts. Through these intermediates, aniline can be conveniently converted to -OH, -CN, or a halide via Sandmeyer reactions. This diazonium salt can also be reacted with NaNO2 and phenol to produce a dye known as benzeneazophenol, in a process called coupling. The reaction of converting primary aromatic amine into diazonium salt is called diazotisation. In this reaction primary aromatic amine reacts with sodium nitrile and with 2 moles of HCl which is known as Ice cold mixture because the temperature use to be 0.5°C and it forms benzene diazonium salt as major product and water and sodium chloride. Other reactions:- It reacts with nitrobenzene to produce phenazine in the Wohl-Aue reaction. Hydrogenation gives cyclohexylamine. Being a standard reagent in laboratories, aniline is used for many niche reactions. Its acetate is used in the aniline acetate test for carbohydrates, identifying pentoses by conversion to furfural. It is used to stain neural RNA blue in the Nissl stain. Uses:- The largest application of aniline is for the preparation of methylenedianiline and related compounds by condensation with formaldehyde. The diamines are condensed with phosgene to give methylene diphenyl diisocyanate, a precursor to urethane polymers. Most aniline is consumed in the production of methylenedianiline, a precursor to polyurethanes. Other uses include rubber processing chemicals (9%), herbicides (2%), and dyes and pigments (2%). As additives to rubber, aniline derivatives such as phenylenediamines and diphenylamine, are antioxidants. Illustrative of the drugs prepared from aniline is paracetamol (acetaminophen, Tylenol). The principal use of aniline in the dye industry is as a precursor to indigo, the blue of blue jeans. Aniline is also used at a smaller scale in the production of the intrinsically conducting polymer polyaniline. Used a mixture of aniline and furfuryl alcohol as a fuel, with nitric acid as an oxidizer. The combination is hypergolic, igniting on contact between fuel and oxidizer. It is also dense, and can be stored for extended periods. .

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.

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.

    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.
