Questions And AnswerBack Directory
[Phenylenediamine]

Phenylenediamine is the simplest aromatic diamine. There are three isomers, namely o-phenylenediamine, m-phenylenediamine and p-phenylenediamine.
p-Phenylenediamine appears as a colorless crystal, being quickly oxidized in the air into black. It has a boiling point of 267 °C. It is soluble in water, ethanol and ether. It can be used as raw materials or intermediates of dyes, vulcanization accelerators for rubber, developers for the photographic industry, fur dyes and hair dyes. People in frequent contact include usually dyeing hair workers, hairdressers and regular hair coloring patients. It can enter the body through the skin, being oxidized intermediates with different degrees of sensitization, being able to cause eczema-like or moss-like dermatitis, appearing mostly in the face, neck and forearm and other skin folds. For example, mouth, eye and nose and other parts are easy to be damaged. People inhalation of its dust can obtain bronchial asthma. The symptoms of oral poisoning are similar as aniline poisoning, being mainly subject to symptomatic treatment.
O-phenylenediamine is also known as 1, 2-diaminobenzene, 1, 2-phenylenediamine. Substance precipitated from the water appears as white to pale yellow leaf-like crystals while product precipitated from chloroform appears as prism-like crystals. Its color is easy to change upon exposure to air, from white to yellow, brown, purple, and finally into black. It has a relative density of 1.2698, the melting point of 103 °C to 104 °C, the boiling point of 256~258 °C. It is slightly soluble in cold water (35 °C 4.15), being easily soluble in hot water (81 °C, 733), ethanol, ether, chloroform and benzene. Its reaction with inorganic acid can lead to the formation of water-soluble salts; its aqueous solution can react with carbon disulfide to generate 2-mercapto-benzimidazole; under pressure, it can react with carbon dioxide reaction to generate benzimidazolone. This product is toxic with inhalation causing visual disturbances. Its contact with the skin can cause inflammation with entering into the eyes being able to cause inflammation as well. Rat oral LD50: 1070mg/kg.
M-phenylenediamine appears as a rhombic crystal, being quickly oxidized to brown color in the air. Its proportion is 1.139 with the melting point of 62.8 °C and the boiling point of 284 °C. It can be dissolved in water, alcohols, and ketones and so on. It can be used in the dye chemical industry, and as a curing agent for plastics. It can also enter into the human body via the respiratory tract, skin and gastrointestinal tract. Acute poisoning can cause methemoglobinemia, and liver damage and hemolytic anemia.

[Production method]

Take o-nitroaniline as raw materials, use sodium sulfide reduction or catalytic hydrogenation for reduction of o-phenylenediamine. Addition of 21% sodium sulfide solution and o-nitroaniline into the reducing pot, raising the temperature to 90 °C, close and raise the temperature to 105-110 °C and increase the pressure to 0.1-0.2 MPa, stirring and reducing for 5 h, cooling to below 40 °C, filter. The filter cake is heated and melted, vacuum distillation, collecting the fraction in 140-210 °C (7.89kPa), namely o-phenylenediamine with the yield of 70-80%. The hydrogenation process should proceed in the autoclave with the reaction temperature of 95-105 °C with the pressure of about 2MPa. It should be subject to hydrogenation reaction under the action of nickel catalyst for about 1h until the hydrogen pressure does not decline. The yield of o-phenylenediamine was above 97%.
There are several preparation methods as follows.
O-Nitroaniline and Sodium Sulfide Reduction
Its reaction with o-nitroaniline and sodium sulfide solution at a pressure of 98 to 196 kPa and a reaction temperature of 105 to 110 ° C, being also carried out at a reaction temperature of 120 to 130 °C under atmospheric pressure for 3 to 4 hours to obtain o-benzenediamine amine.
O-nitroaniline: hydrogenation reduction method
Use o-nitroaniline as the raw material and Raney nickel as the catalyst, the reaction temperature was raised from 95 to 105 ° C in the autoclave, and the product was obtained by stirring at 1.960 MPa under continuous pressure of hydrogen gas until the pressure did not drop.
For the above two preparation methods, the sodium sulfide reduction method can obtain the product of high purity with relative mature process. There are more factories in the domestic production of o-phenylenediamine. But the method has poor labor protection conditions with much wastewater. There are still some problems in the catalytic hydrogenation with industrialization needs to be further improved. In addition, there is also o-dichlorobenzene ammonia solution, there are more units have been studied, but not yet industrialized.
