| production method | 1. Ethylbenzene Nitration with mixed acid at 30-35 °c to obtain nitration of nitration of nitroethylbenzene. After rectification, P-nitroethylbenzene and O-nitroethylbenzene were obtained. P-nitroethylbenzene is oxidized with air in the presence of the catalyst cobalt stearate at 140-150 °c and a pressure of 0.2MPa to give P-nitroacetophenone. The reaction product was washed with water, neutralized, centrifuged and dried to obtain a finished product. Raw material consumption quota: ethylbenzene 2519kg/t, nitric acid 1535kg/t, sulfuric acid 697kg/t, hydrochloric acid 12kg/t, soda ash 81kg/t, caustic soda 111kg/t, ethanol 100kg/t, methanol 70kg/t. 2. P-nitrobenzoyl chloride method. |
