1-Tetralone Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

There are multiple process routes. 1. There are many types of catalysts and oxidants that can be used in the tetralin oxidation method. The method suitable for large-scale industrial production is to use a composite catalyst of chromium acetate and 2-methyl-5-ethylpyridine, air as the oxidant, and atmospheric pressure. Continuous liquid phase oxidation, reaction temperature 130℃, molar ratio of tetralin to oxygen is 1:0.6, residence time 60-70min, single pass conversion of tetralin can reach more than 20%, the choice to produce 1-tetralinone The rate is about 90%, and the main by-product is tetralinol. The product can obtain 98% tetralone by vacuum fractionation. 2. Gamma-butyrolactone is obtained by condensation with benzene. The thiophene-free benzene should be used as the raw material, and the yield can reach 91%-96%. 3. γ-phenylbutyric acid cyclization method γ-phenylbutyric acid is cyclized at 90°C under the action of phosphoric acid/phosphoric anhydride, polyphosphoric acid, hydrofluoric acid or concentrated sulfuric acid to obtain 1-tetralone with a yield of 75 -86%. 4. γ-phenylbutyryl chloride cyclization method in the presence of anhydrous aluminum trichloride or anhydrous tin tetrachloride dehydrochlorination cyclization to get this product.

Uses

It is mainly used in the manufacture of menadol by dehydrogenation; the intermediate used in the pharmaceutical industry for the synthesis of 18-methyl norethisterone (contraceptive) and rodenticide, and also an important intermediate for the synthesis of benazepril. In addition, it can also be used as a softener for solvents and plastics, and its chloride has an insecticidal effect.
