The present invention relates to a method for producing methyldichlorophosphane that is useful as, for example, a production intermediate of herbicides, 2-amino-4-(hydroxymethylphosphinyl)butanoic acid and L-2-amino-4-(hydroxymethylphosphinyl)butanoic acid.
It is already known that methyldichlorophosphane can be used as a production intermediate of 2-amino-4-(hydroxymethylphosphinyl)butanoic acid and L-2-amino-4-(hydroxymethylphosphinyl)butanoic acid having herbicidal activities (see, for example, Patent Literature 1).
Known methods for producing methyldichlorophosphane include reaction in the presence of aluminum chloride (see, for example, Patent Literature 2), a method using a highly toxic compound such as phosgene and carbon tetrachloride (see, for example, Patent Literatures 3 to 5), a method using thionyl chloride and sulfuryl chloride (see, for example, Patent Literature 6), a method using ultraviolet rays (see, for example, Patent Literature 7), a method using oxygen as an additive (see, for example, Patent Literature 8 and Non-Patent Literature 1), and a method using a composite-type, perovskite-type catalyst (see, for example, Non-Patent Literatures 2 to 4).
However, the method of Patent Literature 2 requires aluminum chloride in an equivalent amount or more, and has a problem from the economical viewpoint and a problem with a large amount of metal wastes formed.
The methods of Patent Literatures 3 to 5 use highly toxic compounds such as phosgene and carbon tetrachloride, and also has a problem with a large amount of by-products formed as a result of change of these compounds themselves. Further, these compounds have a boiling point close to the boiling point of the product, methyldichlorophosphane, which makes it difficult to perform purification by distillation. As a result, there is a problem that these methods require high-level facilities and extra thermal energy. There is another problem that clogging of reaction tubes occurs due to the formation of solid by-products.
The method of Patent Literature 6 has a problem with a large amount of by-products formed as a result of change of the compounds themselves that are used. Further, these compounds have a boiling point close to the boiling point of the product, methyldichlorophosphane, which similarly makes it difficult to perform purification by distillation. As a result, there is a problem that this method requires high-level facilities and extra thermal energy.
The method of Patent Literature 7, which uses ultraviolet rays, has a problem with a low yield of the product.
The methods of Patent Literature 8 and Non-Patent Literature 1, which use oxygen as an additive, have problems such as a low yield of the product, formation of by-products such as methyldichlorophosphinic acid, and corrosion of the facilities, as well as formation of extra wastes.
The methods of Non-Patent Literatures 2 to 4, which synthesize methyldichlorophosphane by using a composite-type, perovskite-type catalyst, have problems with low yield and corrosion of the catalyst.
The present invention aims to solve the existing problems and achieve the following object. Specifically, an object of the present invention is to provide a method that can produce methyldichlorophosphane useful as, for example, an intermediate of an herbicide at an excellent yield, while giving less environmental loads due to formation of wastes and suppressing formation of by-products.
The present inventors have found that by allowing methane and phosphorus trichloride to react in the presence of an additive using a metal compound, or a metal compound carried on a carrier, or both thereof, it is possible to produce methyldichlorophosphane at an excellent yield while suppressing formation of wastes and by-products in the reaction. On the basis of this finding, the present invention has been completed.
<1> A method for producing methyldichlorophosphane, the method including:
allowing methane and phosphorus trichloride to react in the presence of an additive using a metal compound, or a metal compound carried on a carrier, or both thereof.
According to the present invention, it is possible to solve the existing problems and achieve the above object and to provide a method that can produce methyldichlorophosphane useful as, for example, an intermediate of an herbicide at an excellent yield, while giving less environmental loads due to formation of wastes and suppressing formation of by-products.

Methane was introduced to this reaction device at a linear velocity of 88 cm/minute. Phosphorus trichloride was introduced by bubbling methane in phosphorus trichloride maintained in temperature at 30° C. Also, oxygen was introduced so that the concentration of the oxygen relative to the methane would be 1% (amount by mol of the oxygen/amount by mol of the methane×100). The reaction mixture discharged from the reaction device was recovered in a vessel cooled to 0° C. and containing ethanol. Note that, the reaction pressure in the reaction was set to 1.013 bar.
This ethanol mixture solution was analyzed through gas chromatography. The yield of methyldichlorophosphane was 22.6%.
Note that, the yield of methyldichlorophosphane was calculated as a production yield, relative to the phosphorus trichloride used, of methylethoxyphosphane that was produced through reaction between methyldichlorophosphane and ethanol (the same applies in the following test examples).
