In the chemical reaction process, reaction time, type of solvent, can easily affect the result of the reaction, thereby determining the yield and properties of the reaction product. An updated downstream synthesis route of 461-81-4 as follows. Computed Properties of C7H4ClF3O
a) Preparation of 4-trifluoromethoxybenzonitrile Process According to the Invention in MEK Under an atmosphere of nitrogen, a mixture of 6.5 g of bis-triphenylphosphine-nickel dichloride, 5 g of triphenylphosphine and 120 ml of MEK was stirred at room temperature for 10 minutes. 1.9 g of activated zinc powder were then added, and the reaction mixture was stirred at 70 C. for 30 minutes. Following this, the mixture was allowed to cool to 25 C., and 93.25 g of 1-chloro-4-trifluoromethoxybenzene were added dropwise. The mixture was stirred for 10 minutes, 24 g of sodium cyanide were added, and the reaction mixture was stirred at from 65 to 70 C. for 20 h. The conversion was then approximately 75% (GC). After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was filtered, the solid filter residue was washed 2* with 50 ml of MEK and the combined organic phases were concentrated under reduced pressure. Vacuum distillation gave 58.5 g (66% of theory) of 4-trifluoromethoxybenzonitrile as a colourless liquid (boiling point at 120 mbar: 80 C.). 2.6% of coupling products had formed.
According to the analysis of related databases, 461-81-4, the application of this compound in the production field has become more and more popular.
