Abstract:
Tetranitromethane is obtained by reaction of acetylene with nitric acid. Acetylene may be absorbed in strong nitric acid and the resulting solution distilled or poured on ice; better yields are obtained by adding an acid, acid anhydride, or dehydrating-agent, such as sulphuric acid, fuming sulphuric acid, or phosphorus pentoxide, to the solution, before distillation. Mercury or a mercury salt, e.g. mercuric nitrate, may be added to the nitric acid used. Nitric acid of 90 to 97.5 per cent, strength and a temperature of 14 to 40 DEG C. are most suitable for the absorption.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a continuous process for the production of nitrobenzene by nitration of benzene with nitric acid or mixtures of nitric acid and sulfuric acid to give a crude nitrobenzene, washing of the crude nitrobenzene by means of at least one of each of an acid, alkaline and neutral washing, there being obtained a pre-purified nitrobenzene which, as well as containing nitrobenzene, at least contains also low boilers, optionally middle boilers as well as high boilers and salts, wherein the pre-purified nitrobenzene is purified further by separating off low boilers in a distillation apparatus by evaporation of the low boilers, and separation of nitrobenzene from the resulting further purified nitrobenzene in a distillation apparatus by partial evaporation of nitrobenzene, wherein pure nitrobenzene is removed from the distillation apparatus in gaseous form and is subsequently condensed, and wherein the non-evaporated portion of the further purified nitrobenzene is fed back into the washing at any desired point.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for preparing 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-dinitrobutane (DMNB), which includes the following steps: (1) making titanium-silicate molecular sieve catalyst, acetone, hydrogen peroxide and ammonia contact and react at 65-80° C. to obtain a modified titanium-silicate molecular sieve catalyst; and (2-1) making acetone oxime and hydrogen peroxide contact and react in the presence of the modified titanium-silicate molecular sieve catalyst and water under the conditions of temperature of 60-90° C. and pH of 8-10, and separating DMNB from the reaction products thereof; or (2-2) making acetone, ammonia and hydrogen peroxide contact and react in the presence of the modified titanium-silicate molecular sieve catalyst and water under the conditions of temperature of 60-90° C. and pH of 8-10, and separating DMNB from the reaction products thereof. By the method provided by the present invention, DMNB can be prepared without having to use dangerous chemicals, such as 2-nitropropane, NaH and the like.
