What is Bronopol?

Bronopol (English name Bronopol) is also known as bronopol, its scientific name is bronopol, 2-bromo-2-nitro-1,3-propanediol (2-Bromo-2-nitro-1,3-propanediol ), 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol (2-Bromo-2-nitropropan-1,3-diol), “Bronopol” is its common name, also called “Pi Lebao”, ” Rosinool”. At room temperature, it is white to light yellow, yellow-brown crystalline powder, odorless and tasteless, easily soluble in water, ethanol, propylene glycol, insoluble in chloroform, acetone, benzene, etc. It will slowly decompose in alkaline aqueous solution, and has a corrosive effect on some metals, such as aluminum.

Bropol can be compatible with most surfactants, but when substances containing -SH groups in cosmetic raw materials, such as cysteine, etc., the antibacterial activity of Bropol will be reduced.

Bronopol is poisonous, irritating to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes, and can cause congenital abnormalities. When used in large quantities, it is harmful to the environment. It is mainly used as a preservative and bactericide for cosmetics, which can effectively prevent and control a variety of plant pathogenic bacteria.

Bronopol Uses

Bronopol works versus a wide variety of phytopathogenic germs as well as is mainly utilized as a seed treatment representative, etc. In addition, due to its broad-spectrum antibacterial residential or commercial properties, it has been utilized as an anti-bacterial in medicine considering that the 1960s. With the boosting growth of cosmetics, combined with the broad-spectrum antibacterial and good water solubility of Bropol, it was utilized as an aesthetic chemical in the late 1980s as well as established extremely quick. In recent years, Bropol has been widely utilized in feed, paint, hair anti-corrosion, air-conditioning flowing water, oil area water injection, aircraft, lorry and also ship disinfection, etc, and the demand has raised swiftly.
Bronopol has a spectrum of antibacterial activity. It has efficient antibacterial activity in solution products including surfactants in the pH series of 4 to 9, and in formulations with high focus of protein substances, particularly for Pseudomonas aeruginosa with strong anti-bacterial activity. Bacillus has special results; safe, non-irritating, and non-allergic. The quantity of this chemical used in cosmetics is 0.01% to 0.05%. The poisoning examination results show that this chemical is secure, and it is an aesthetic antiseptic approved by the US FDA. One of the agents; it has a collaborating result in the substance. According to the statistics of the US FDA, among all the chemicals utilized in cosmetics, Bronopol is made use of most frequently. It is the sharp rise in commercial need that advertises the research study and also commercial production of Bronopol.
Bronopol can properly regulate a variety of plant pathogenic germs. Cotton seeds can be dealt with to stop and manage cotton black arm condition as well as bacterial scabrous blight brought on by Xanthomonas cotton, as well as have no phytotoxicity to cotton. It can additionally be utilized for rice bakanae condition. The advised focus is 800-1000mg/ L.
Bronopol is generally used in industrial circulating water, paper pulp, paint, plastics, cosmetics, timber, cooling down water flow system, as well as commercial sterilization, anti-mildew, anti-corrosion, algae and so on.
Bronopol is utilized as a chemical for cosmetics. It is included in the processing of shampoos, balms and also creams as well as other cosmetics. The antiseptic focus in cosmetics is 0.01%-0.02%. It can likewise be used in cleaning agents, textile treatment agents, and so on.

Bronopol Manufacturing Method

Bronopol can be obtained from nitromethane and formaldehyde as raw materials, under alkaline conditions, through a two-step reaction of alkane hydroxylation and bromination, and the reaction equation is as follows:

CH3NO2 + 2HCHO → HOCH2C(NO2)HCH2OH

HOCH2C(NO2)HCH2OH +NaOH→[HOCH2C(=NO2)CH2OH]Na+H2O

[HOCH2C(=NO2)CH2OH]Na + Br2→HOCH2C(Br)(NO2)CH2OH+NaBr

There are two operating procedures. (1) Add nitromethane, 30% formaldehyde, calcium chloride and sodium hydroxide in a molar ratio of 1:2:2:2 to the reaction device, stir, and drop bromine and dichloroethane below 0°C to prepare The solution. Added in 1h, the amount of bromine and nitromethane equimolar. The dichloroethane layer was separated, and the dichloroethane was distilled off. A white solid (crude product) was obtained. The aqueous layer of the reactant was extracted with ether, and the ether in the ether extract was evaporated to obtain another part of the crude product. The crude products were combined and recrystallized with ether to obtain the pure product. (2) First prepare 2-nitro-1,3-propanediol, add nitromethane and 30% formaldehyde solution into the reflux reaction device at a molar ratio of 1:2, then add 2% potassium carbonate, heat and reflux for 1 hour, cool and precipitate crystallization . Extracted with ether, dried, distilled off ether, in 2-nitro-1,3-propanediol. Then dissolve it in methanol, add 20% methanol solution of sodium methoxide d, stir at 20°C, and precipitate 2-nitro-1,3-propanediol sodium. Filter out the sodium salt and suspend in dry ether for bromination: Add bromine dropwise to the suspension of 2-nitro-1,3-propanediol sodium in ether below 0°C, and stir for 10 minutes after the drop is complete. Filtration, distilled to diethyl ether, namely Bronopol.

Synthesis of Bronopol

The organic synthesis technique of Bronopol mainly adopts following several: the one, nitromethane and formaldehyde are first condensed to generate intermediate 2-nitro-1,3-propanediol, then with bromine generation bromination reaction, obtain Bronopol product; Nitromethane is first brominated with bromine to produce bromonitromethane intermediate, and pure bromonitromethane is directly condensed with formaldehyde to obtain Bropol product.
Method 1: Condensation of nitromethane and formaldehyde first, and then bromination reaction with bromine to obtain the technical route of Bropol product. The process reaction mechanism is as follows:

Fig. 1 is Bronopol synthesis method one.
The report of using this principle to prepare Bropol was first seen in 1923. In absolute alcohol, in the presence of alkali metals, nitromethane and formaldehyde were reacted for condensation reaction, and the intermediate nitroalcohol produced was The basic salt is separated and placed in an organic solvent to obtain Bropol. Similar synthesis methods were reported in Germany and France in 1970.
Methods Dinitromethane was brominated with bromine to obtain bromopicrin intermediate, and the pure bromopicrin was directly condensed with formaldehyde to obtain Bronopol product. The technological principle of this method is:

Fig. 2 is Bronopol synthesis method two.
In 1990, the United States and the United States in 1991 successively proposed the preparation methods of halogenated nitro alcohols and bromo nitro alcohols. The method proposes to carry out bromination reaction of nitromethane and bromine to prepare a bromonitromethane intermediate, and then use the bromonitromethane to chemically react with formaldehyde to prepare a high-purity Bronopol product. The intermediate bromopicrin obtained by this method is very stable and easy to purify. The obtained product has less impurity content, simple post-treatment, and does not need any organic solvent in the crystallization process. The product Bronopol has large crystal size, good crystal form, and high purity, which meets the requirements of the British Pharmacopoeia BP2000 standard and can fully meet the needs of export. The process yield is about 88% to 90%.
