4-(tert-Butyl)benzyl mercaptan Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

The preparation method is to add 18.3g (0.1mol) of p-tert-butylbenzyl chloride, 100g of toluene, 0.5g of tetrabutylammonium bromide and 1.8g (0.03mol) of acetic acid into a four-necked reaction flask with a capacity of 300mL. After the temperature was raised to 50°C, 31.7 g (0.13 mol) of a 23% sodium hydrosulfide aqueous solution was added dropwise with stirring. After 30 minutes of dropping, continue to stir and react for 30 minutes at 50°C, cool to room temperature, separate layers after standing, wash the toluene layer with water, evaporate the toluene, and concentrate to obtain a pale yellow liquid p-tert-butyl Benzyl mercaptan is 18.0 g, the purity is 93%, and the synthesis yield is 92%. If it is rectified again to collect the fraction with a boiling range of 90-92°C/532Pa, the purity of p-tert-butylbenzyl mercaptan can reach 99%. The pure product of p-tert-butylbenzyl mercaptan is a colorless and transparent liquid with a mercaptan odor and is miscible with most organic solvents. The industrial product content is 95%.

Uses

P-tert-butylbenzyl mercaptan is an intermediate for the synthesis of acaricide pyridaben.
