Storage method
Storage Precautions[21] Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Keep container tightly sealed. They should be stored separately from oxidants, alkalis, and food chemicals, and avoid mixed storage. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.
Synthesis method
Produced by the reaction of ethanol or acetaldehyde and chlorine. Ethanol chlorination method: The stepwise reaction between ethanol and chlorine produces a mixture of alcoholic trichloroacetaldehyde, hydrated trichloroacetaldehyde and trichloroacetaldehyde, collectively called chlorine oil. React chlorine oil with concentrated sulfuric acid, and then use simple distillation to obtain refined trichloroacetaldehyde products. The by-product ethyl chloride can be packaged for the production of pesticides after washing with water, alkali washing, drying, condensation and distillation. Hydrogen chloride can be absorbed with water to produce 30% hydrochloric acid. Raw material consumption quota: ethanol (95%) 450kg/t, chlorine 2000kg/t, sulfuric acid 700kg/t.
Purpose
1. Mainly used as raw materials for the manufacture of pesticides such as the insecticide DDT, trichlorfon, dichlorvos, and the herbicide trichloroacetaldehyde urea. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used to produce chloramphenicol, mold compound, hypnotic agent trichloroacetaldehyde hydrate, etc. It can also be used as organic raw material to produce N,N-dimethylformamide, chloroform, chloroform, etc.
2. Used in DDT manufacturing and organic synthesis. [22]
