Study on the Synthesis of High-quality Dodecanoyl Chloride
Using 3-methylpyridine as a catalyst,lauric acid and phosgene were reacted to synthesize high quality dodecanoyl chloride with yield>98.0%(measured by lauric acid),purity ≥99.5%,and chroma<5.The method has the advantages such as simple operation,no solvent requirement,high yield and purity,low chroma,absence of extraneous odour,stable quality,fewer impurities and low production cost,making it suitable for industrial production.
