Properties and stability

1. It has very little toxicity and recovers quickly after poisoning, so it can be used as an anesthetic. Irritating to skin and mucous membranes. Oral LD50 in young adult rats: 1.6mL/kg. The maximum allowable concentration in the air is 500×10-6. Gas masks should be worn during operation. When poisoning is discovered, leave the scene immediately and receive symptomatic treatment. The smallest among the chlorides of methane. The vapor is highly anesthetic, and inhaling large amounts can cause acute poisoning, with symptoms such as nasal pain, headache, and vomiting. Chronic poisoning can cause dizziness, fatigue, loss of appetite, impaired hematopoietic function, and reduced red blood cells. Liquid methylene chloride can cause dermatitis when it comes into contact with the skin. Rats died after inhaling vapor with a concentration of 90.5g/m3 for 90 minutes. The olfactory threshold concentration is 522mg/m3, and the maximum allowable concentration in the workplace is 1740mg/m3.

Storage method

Storage Precautions[32] Stored in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature does not exceed 32°C and the relative humidity does not exceed 80%. Keep container tightly sealed. Should be stored separately from alkali metals and food chemicals, and avoidMixed storage. Equipped with the appropriate variety and quantity of fire equipment. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.

Synthesis method

1. Methane chlorination method: After mixing methane, chlorine and circulating gas, they are sent to the reactor for thermal chlorination reaction at 380~400°C. After the gas reaction product is cooled to 70-80°C by the cooler, it is sent to the hydrogen chloride absorption tower, where the hydrogen chloride in the gas product is absorbed and removed with water, and then sent to the alkali washing tower, where it is neutralized with alkali liquid to remove residual hydrochloric acid and free chlorine. The purified gas product is compressed, cooled, and condensed into crude chloride. The crude chloride is sent to the distillation process, and methyl chloride, methylene chloride and chloroform are steamed out through each distillation tower. Except for a part of the non-condensable gas that is vented, the rest is mixed with new materials for recycling. The controlled operating conditions are reaction temperature 400-420°C, ingredient ratio CH4:Cl2=4:1, and products based on methylene chloride can be obtained.

2. Methanol ammoniation method: After the methanol is gasified in the gasifier, it is mixed with the hydrogen chloride separated in the subsequent reaction, and then passed through the catalyst alumina or suboxone chloride or zinc chloride with activated carbon or pumice as the carrier. Phosphoric acid supported on the activated carbon can also be used as the catalyst. , react in a hydrochlorinator at 350°C to generate methyl chloride. The gaseous reaction product is washed with cold water and sodium hydroxide solution in a water washing tower or an alkali washing tower respectively. After removing unreacted methanol and hydrogen chloride, it is sent to the dehydrogenation tower and washed again with sulfuric acid to remove the dimethyl ether and dimethyl ether generated during the reaction. water to obtain methyl chloride. Methyl chloride reacts with chlorine at 410 to 420°C to produce dichloromethane and chloroform, as well as a small amount of carbon tetrachloride. After quenching, it is divided into a liquid phase containing dichloroethane and a gas phase containing uncondensed hydrogen chloride, unreacted methyl chloride, and chlorine. The gas phase is separated to separate hydrogen chloride, methyl chloride and chlorine for recycling. The liquid phase is first sent to the absorption tower and washed with dilute alkali and water to remove carbon tetrachloride, and then sent to the rectification tower to obtain dichloromethane and chloroform respectively through azeotropic distillation and rectification.

3. Methyl chloride chloride Methane chlorination has two processes: photochlorination and thermal chlorination.
Photochlorination is the reaction of methyl chloride and chlorine under 4000kW light. The reaction product is washed with alkali, compressed, condensed, dried and distilled to obtain the finished product.
Thermal chlorination is to mix methyl chloride and chlorine gas according to (2~2.5):1 (mass), and react at a reaction temperature of 400°C and a reaction pressure of 0.2MPa. The reaction product is washed with water, alkali washed, compressed, condensed, dried and distilled to obtain the finished product.

4. Use industrial methylene chloride as raw material , wash several times with concentrated sulfuric acid 1/8 to 1/10 of the raw material volume until the acid layer is colorless, then wash once with 5% sodium hydroxide solution, the dosage is 1/5 of the raw material volume, and wash twice with water. Then it is dried with anhydrous calcium chloride, the clear liquid is sucked out and then distilled, and the middle fraction is collected to obtain pure methylene chloride.
