Isocyanates from Oxalyl Chloride and Amines.
Abstract:
The process of this invention for preparing isocyanates is a one-step process comprising heating an amine or an amine hydrochloride salt with excess oxalyl chloride OxCl in a high boiling point solvent from about 80 C-180 C for a reaction time of about 0.5-2 hours. An appropriate high boiling point solvent is selected from o-dichlorobenzene DCB and decahydronaphthalene Decalin. After forming the isocyanate, the excess oxalyl chloride and solvent are removed and the isocyanate is separated and purified by distillation.
