4-Bromomandelic acid Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

It is obtained by condensation, bromination, hydrolysis and acidification of bromobenzene. 1. Condensed bromobenzene, carbon disulfide and anhydrous aluminum trichloride together slightly heat to the carbon disulfide reflux, slowly add acetic anhydride, after the addition, continue to reflux for 2h. The carbon disulfide is recovered, poured into ice water with hydrochloric acid, and filtered to dry to obtain p-bromoacetophenone. 2. Bromination Dissolve p-bromoacetophenone in acetic acid, and slowly add a mixture of bromine and acetic acid at 25-45°C. The reactant was filtered, the crystals were washed with dilute ethanol, and filtered to dryness to obtain tribromide. 3. Hydrolysis and acidification Heat 10% sodium hydroxide solution to 10℃, add tribromide, and stir for 3-4h below 20℃. Filter, add hydrochloric acid to the filtrate to pH=1, cool to 10°C and filter dry to obtain a crude product. Recrystallize with benzene to obtain the finished product.
