Benzil Uses

Benzil is used in photosensitizers, intermediates in organic synthesis, and can also be used as adhesives, etc.
Benzil Organic synthesis intermediate, also used in pesticides. The product is promising as a photosensitizer for ultraviolet curable resins (UV resins). Bibenzoyl sensitizes to UV light in a wide range of wavelengths. Benzoin is below 3400A, and benzoin alkyl ether is below 3900A. The dibenzoyl below 4800A can be sensitized in a wide wavelength range, so it can be used for curing thick film resins, which is a feature that was not available in UA resin sensitization before. And there is no smell after curing, so it is suitable for making printing inks for food packaging.
Benzil is used as a pharmaceutical intermediate, a photosensitizer for UV-curable resins, etc.

Benzil Production Method

Condensed by benzaldehyde and sodium cyanide to obtain benzoin (benzoin), and then obtained by nitric acid oxidation. This process is polluted due to the production of nitrous acid gas, and the reaction is intense and requires careful operation. The production reagent bibenzoyl also uses copper acetate or copper sulfate. For example, 4100g of crystalline copper sulfate, 4000g of pyridine and 1600g of water are stirred and heated together, then 1696g of benzoin is added, and the reaction is heated for 2h. The ketone sulfate-pyridine solution was then decanted. The crystals were washed with water and co-heated with 10% hydrochloric acid. After cooling, filter out the crystals to obtain 1450 g of bibenzoyl. This product is obtained by oxidizing benzoin with air or nitric acid. The benzoin and nitric acid (40%) were added to the reaction pot, and the temperature was slowly raised to 110 °C over 4 h, and the reaction was maintained for 1 h. Then it was cooled to below 40°C, filtered and washed with water to obtain the crude biphenoyl. Add water to the crude product, adjust the pH to 12 with 30% sodium hydroxide, heat to 100°C to dissolve, filter after cooling, and wash with water to obtain the finished product. The yield is above 95%.

Preparation method of Benzil

Using benzoin as a raw material to prepare benzophenone, the traditional oxidation methods include: chromate oxidation, nitric acid oxidation, permanganate oxidation, ferric chloride oxidation, copper sulfate oxidation, etc. These oxidation methods are all Using metered oxidant has high cost, large amount of waste residue and serious pollution. It is of great significance to develop a green and efficient catalytic oxidation method to catalyze the oxidation of benzoin to benzoin.

Molecular oxygen is cheap and abundant, and it is very attractive to develop an efficient catalytic system using molecular oxygen as the oxygen source for the selective oxidation of benzoin to benzoin. Journal of Molecular Catalysis A: Chemical (1996, 111, 33-36) reported a method for preparing benzoin by catalyzing oxygen oxidation of benzoin using Co(acac)2 and Fe(acac)3. As an oxidant, the conversion rate of benzoin and the selectivity of benzoin are relatively high, but in the reaction process, it is necessary to add three times the amount of aldehyde or acetal relative to the raw material benzoin, which increases the cost and improves the separation and purification of products. difficulty. Journal of Molecular Catalysis A: Chemical (2001, 165, 283-290) discloses a method for preparing benzoin by catalyzing the oxidation of benzoin with H3+nPMo12-nVnO40 (n=1-4) as an oxidizing agent, The reaction conditions are mild, and by-products such as benzaldehyde, benzoic acid, and benzoic acid esters generated by the cleavage of carbon-carbon bonds make the selectivity of benzophenone low. Catalysis Communications (2010, 11, 684‑688) reported that air was used as an oxidant, and hydrotalcite doped with different metals was used as a catalyst to catalyze the oxidation of benzoin. The reaction conditions were mild and the selectivity of benzophenone was good, but the catalyst preparation steps were cumbersome, long cycle.

A method for directly oxidizing benzoin with molecular oxygen to prepare benzoin, specifically using a compound of bismuth as a catalyst, oxygen or air as an oxidant to oxidize benzoin to prepare benzoin, and the compound of bismuth is less toxic as a catalyst, Oxidant oxygen comes directly from air, with low cost and mild reaction conditions, and has good industrial application prospects.

Add 0.1 mol% (relative to the molar amount of raw material benzoin) bismuth oxide and 0.53 g of benzoin into a 10 ml three-necked flask, add 2 ml of absolute ethanol, introduce oxygen by bubbling, heat up to 80 ° C under stirring, and keep for 6 h . Then cooled to room temperature, sampling was used to compare the gas chromatography retention time of GC-MS and standard substances to characterize the oxidation product. The main product detected by GC-MS was benzophenone, and a small amount of benzaldehyde and benzoic acid, which were retained by gas chromatography. Time comparison results are consistent with GC‑MS, quantified using gas chromatography analysis. The schematic diagram of the reaction is shown in Formula 1, and the corresponding analytical chromatogram is shown in Figure 1. The conversion rate of benzoin is 96%, the selectivity of benzophenone is 94%, and the by-products are mainly a small amount of benzaldehyde and benzoic acid.
