Storage method

Storage Precautions^[14] Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature should not exceed 30°C and the relative humidity should not exceed 70%. Keep container tightly sealed. They should be stored separately from oxidants, reducing agents, acids, alkalis, and food chemicals, and avoid mixed storage. Equipped with the appropriate variety and quantity of fire equipment. The storage area should be equipped with emergency spill treatment equipment and suitable containment materials.

Synthesis method

1. Obtained from bromination of acetic acid and then esterification with methanol. Add glacial acetic acid, acetic anhydride, red phosphorus and several pieces of zeolite into the dry reactor, heat to reflux, and when the temperature rises to 60-70°C, start slowly adding bromine dropwise, and keep it warm for about 1 hour after the addition. Cool and filter, then distill under reduced pressure to obtain bromoacetic acid. Add bromoacetic acid and methanol to carbon tetrachloride, then add sulfuric acid, heat to reflux and dehydrate. After dehydration is completed, steam out the carbon tetrachloride, then add methanol and reflux for 1 hour to recover the methanol. The residue is washed, dried and decompressed. Distillation, that is, the finished product is obtained.

2. In a dry place A condenser, thermometer, separatory funnel, etc. are installed on the flask. Add glacial acetic acid, acetic anhydride, red phosphorus and a few pieces of zeolite, and then reflux on the sand bath. When the temperature reaches 60~70°C, start slowly dripping bromine from the separatory funnel. After adding, keep it warm for 30~60 minutes. Cool and filter, then distill under reduced pressure to obtain bromoacetic acid. Mix carbon tetrachloride, bromoacetic acid, methanol, and sulfuric acid on a sand bath and reflux and dehydrate. After dehydration is completed, the carbon tetrachloride is evaporated, and then methanol is added and refluxed for 1 hour. The methanol is recovered. After the residue is washed and dried, reduce the Pressure distillation to obtain the finished product. The process reaction formula is:

Purpose

Used in the synthesis of herbicides, and also used as intermediates in the manufacture of dyes and pharmaceuticals. ^[15]
