1,2,4-Benzenetriol Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

1, 2, 4-Pyrogallol triacetate is prepared from p-benzoquinone and acetic anhydride, which is then obtained by the action of hydrochloric acid. 1. Preparation of 1, 1, 2, 4-Pyrogallol Triacetate Dry p-benzoquinone is added to the mixture of acetic anhydride and concentrated sulfuric acid in portions, the reaction temperature is 40-50°C, and the reaction is 1-3h. Add cold water to the reactant, filter the precipitated precipitate, wash with cold water, and recrystallize with alcohol to obtain 1, 2, 4-benzenetriol triacetate. Melting point 96.5-97°C. 2. Preparation of pyrogallol 5% hydrochloric acid and 1, 2, 4-pyrogallol triacetate are stirred and heated to 90°C, hydrolyzed for 20 min, and cooled. Neutralize with sodium carbonate and filter. The filtrate is extracted with ether, and the ether extract is heated to evaporate the ether to obtain 1, 2, 4-benzenetriester.

Uses

A metabolite of benzene.
