Toluidine Isomers
Toluidine has three isomers: o-toluidine, m-toluidine and p-toluidine, while o-toluidine is the situ substitution product and m-toluidine is the shift substitution product.
O-toluidine is an important intermediate for the production of dyes and pigments and can be used to prepare direct red 62, red base RL, red base G, juvenile base GBC, alkaloid, peptone AS-D, acid red 35,158 265, solvent red 124, diazo group of azo dyes and coupling component, pigment yellow 14, yellow 17, Blue 19; raw materials of pesticide like Tricyclazole, insecticide Chlordimeform, chloromethiuron; acetochlor; raw materials of Thiofide; raw material of saccharin; corrosion inhibitor and other raw materials. In organic synthesis, o-toluidine are also used in synthesis of heterocyclic compounds indole and its derivatives.
Chemical and Physical Properties
O-toluidine is a clear colorless or light yellow liquid, may become reddish brown on exposure to air and light, and white precipitate at the presence of formaldehyde. It is slightly soluble in water, soluble in dilute acid, alcohol and ether.
relative density: 1.004(20℃);
melting point:-16.3℃ (β),-24.4℃(α);
boiling point: 199.7℃;
Flash point 185°F;
spontaneous ignition point: 482.2℃;
vapor density: 3.69.
Its vapor can form explosive mixture with air. The maximum allowable concentration in air is 5ppm. O-toluidine is flammable when exposed to heat or flame. It will, when heated, emit toxic gases toxic similar to that of aniline. Once it enters human body, it will cause the formation of hemoglobin, resulting in the occurrence of neurological disorders and cyanosis.
It has about the same density as water and is very slightly soluble in water. Vapors are heavier than air. Confirmed carcinogen.
The chemical properties of the toluidines are quite similar to those of aniline and toluidines have properties in common with other aromatic amines. Due to the amino group bonded to the aromatic ring, the toluidines are weakly basic.
Synthesis Method
o-Toluidine can be synthesized from toluene. The direct aromatic amination is very effective when done with a parent nitrenium ion, but o-toluidine can also be synthesized in other ways. For example, by the amination of toluene with methylhydroxylamine or hydroxylammonium salts in presence of aluminum trichloride.[22] The reaction using a nitrenium ion is not regionselective and multiple structural isomers will be present in the product. Figure 2 shows a very general synthesis reaction of o-toluidine and the other products (p-toluidine and m-toluidine). To obtain pure o-toluidine, the isomers need to be separated.
1. In the dilute acid medium, o-nitrotoluene heated together with iron powder and water to synthesize o-toluidine.
?
2. O-nitrotoluene is preheated with hydrogen in the induction heater and hydrogenated in the presence of copper catalyst to prepare o-toluidine.?
3.Toluene is aminated by ammonia sodium with the rhodium-carbon catalyst to produce o-toluidine.
4.Aniline is alkylated with methanol under the catalysis of ferric nitrate and germanium dioxide to produce the finished product o-toluidine.
Hazard Occasions
O-toluidine is toxic, the inhalation of its vapor or absorbtion through the skin or ingestion can cause poisoning. It is one of the known carcinogens.
O-toluidine is flammable with a fire point of 482℃, and can form explosive mixture with air. The allowable concentration in air in the United States is 2ppm (9mg/m3).
Toxicity
O-toluidine has a toxicity similar to aniline. The inhalation of its vapor or absorbtion through the skin or ingestion can cause poisoning. Once it enters human body, it will cause the formation of hemoglobin, resulting in the occurrence of neurological disorders, anoxia, headach, acratia, dizziness, drowsiness, cyanosis and hematuresis under microscope. Contact with eyes and skin may cause dermatitis and eye burns. It is one of the known carcinogens.

Dangerous Goods Code: 84182.UN No.:1708/6270/6.1-02/335.
Domestic commodity number: 61750;
Container in transportation must be marked “Poisonous”.
Storage
Stored in glass bottles or metal barrels to prevent mechanical damage. Place it in a cool, dry, well ventilated place. It is best to use the open or attached warehouse. No fireworks, far away from the fire site. Avoid light. Sealed preservation. Separate it from oxidizer.
Identification
Determination in air: analysis by silica adsorption, propyl alcohol treatment and gas chromatography.
Specific determination of glucose
o-Toluidine can also be used for measuring serum glucose concentration, in the form of acetic acid–o-toluidine.[26] The o-toluidine reaction for the estimation of glucose concentration in the serum gained massive popularity in the 1970s. This method was mostly used by clinical laboratories. Because of the potential health hazard, the laboratories now have a modified method by using alternative compounds.
Separation of toxic metal ions
The increasing level of heavy metals in the environment is a serious environmental problem. Various methods have been developed to remove these metals from aqueous systems, but these methods have limitations. Because of the limitations, researchers prompted to exploit inorganic materials as ion exchangers. These inorganic ion exchangers are able to obtain specific metal ions/anions or organic molecules. Following research in 2010,[27] there has been a synthesis and analytical application on a new thermally stable composite cation exchange material: poly-o-toluidine stannic molybdate. This material showed a high selectivity for Pb2+ and Hg2+ metal ions.
First-aid
If it enters the eyes, immediately rinse with water or eye drops; on the contact with the skin, immediately wash it off with soap and water; if it inhaled, immediately remove the patient from the scene to the fresh air; practice artificial respiration if necessary; if it is swallowed, drink plenty of water and induce vomiting followed by gastric lavage, and immediately send the patient to hospital for treatment. Methylene blue is a specific antidote to it.
Protective Measures
Suitable protective clothing should be equipped during the peration to prevent skin contact. Wear protective glasses to prevent contact with skin and eyes. Immediately remove permeable clothing, such as wetted or contaminated,. The operating site shall be provided with a safety signal indicator, eyewash and flushing equipment.
The Detection of blood glucose
Methods of determination of the glucose include oxidase method and o-toluidine condensation method and Folin-Wushi method. Among them, o-toluidine condensation method are most commonly used. This method has a high specificity for detecting glucose and is not affected by other substances other than glucose. The theoretical basis is that glucose in hot acetic acid solution can be condensed with o-toluidine to form a blue-green Schiff's base and the color depth is proportional to the glucose content. O-toluidine is added into the serum and glucose standard liquid. Then compare their optical density and calculate the serum glucose content. The normal level of fasting serum glucose is 70~100mg /dl.
Fire Extinguishant
Fog water, foam, carbon dioxide, sand.
Occupational Standard
TWA 22 mg/m3; STEL 44 mg/m3.
Production Methods
The production of O-toluidine is based on the catalytic hydrogenation of O-nitrotoluene or the amination of toluene with methylhydroxylamine in the presence of aluminum trichloride (Windholz 1983). It is available as a technical grade with a minimum of 99.5% purity containing m-toluidine (0.4% maximum) and/or ptoluidine (0.1% maximum) as impurities (Anon. 1978). The stabilized technical grade may also contain less than 0.5% of unidentified stabilizing agents to prevent darkening.

Air & Water Reactions
Becomes reddish brown upon exposure to air and light [Hawley]. Slightly soluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
o-Toluidine neutralizes acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen may be generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides. Emits very toxic oxides of nitrogen when heated to decomposition. Undergoes a hypergolic reaction with red fuming nitric acid [Kit and Evered, 1960, p. 239, 242].
Health Hazard
Exposures to O-toluidine cause toxicity and poisoning to animals and occupational workers. It is highly toxic to animals and humans and is rapidly absorbed by oral, dermal, and inhalation by mammals. The acute oral LD50 to rats ranges from 900 to 940 mg/kg. The compound is known to cause adverse effects in workers, which include headache, irritation of skin, eye, kidneys, bladder, and hematuria. O-Toluidine has caused hepatocellular adenoma and carcinoma in experimental laboratory mice and rats. Occupational workers exposed to O-toluidine have also demonstrated bladder cancer although the role of aniline cannot be ruled out. However, the IARC working group, because of insuffi cient data, classify O-toluidine as a Group 2B agent, meaning possibly carcinogenic to humans, while the NIOSH classify this compound as an occupational carcinogen, and the ACGIH label it as a suspected human carcinogen under A2 class.
Health Hazard
o-Toluidine is a cancer-causing compound.Its acute toxicity in test species was lowto moderate. Severe poisoning may occur athigh doses. It may enter the body by inhala tion of its vapors, ingestion, or absorptionthrough skin contact. The target organs arekidneys, liver, blood, cardiovascular system,skin, and eyes. The toxic symptoms includemethemoglobinemia, anemia, and reticulo cytosis, which are similar to aniline. Thisproduces anoxia (lack of oxygen), cyanosis,headache, weakness, drowsiness, dizziness,increase in urine volume, and hematuria.The pure liquid on skin contact can causeirritation and dermatitis. Contact with eyescan cause burns.LD50 value, oral (mice): 520 mg/kgo-Toluidine is a suspected human carcinogen. The evidence of carcinogenicity inhuman is inadequate. It caused tumors in thekidney, bladder, and lungs in rats, mice, andrabbits resulting from oral and subcutaneousadministration.Brennan and Schiestl (1999) have reportedo-toluidine and o-anisidine induced free radicals and intrachromosomal recombination inSaccharomyces cerevisiae. The toxicity andrecombination induced by these compoundswere reduced by free radical scavenger andantioxidant N-acetyl cysteine.
Health Hazard
Acute O-toluidine poisoning can cause painful hematuria (Goldbarb and Finelli, 1974) and methemoglobinemia (Hjelm et al 1972 and Struck et al 1969) in humans. Conflicting reports have resulted from evaluating the role of the compound in causing bladder or other cancers. Olt and Langner (1983) reported no increase in men engaged in the production of organic dyes, but Rubino et al (1982) strongly implicated O-toluidine in deaths due to bladder cancer in similar types of men.

Potential Exposure
o-Toluidine is used as an intermediate in the manufacture of dyes; as an intermediate in pharmaceutical manufacture; in textile printing; in rubber accelerators; in production of o-aminoazotoluene
Source
As o+p-toluidine, detected in distilled water-soluble fractions of 87 octane gasoline and
Gasohol at concentrations of 0.80 and 0.19 mg/L, respectively (Potter, 1996). o-Toluidine was
detected in 77% of 65 gasoline (regular and premium) samples (62 from Switzerland, 3 from
Boston, MA). At 25 °C, concentrations ranged from 13 to 18,000 μg/L in gasoline and 10 to 1,400 μg/L in water-soluble fractions. Average concentrations were 6.1 mg/L in gasoline and 0.47 mg/L
in water-soluble fractions (Schmidt et al., 2002).
Environmental fate
Biological. Heukelekian and Rand (1955) reported a 5-d BOD value of 1.40 g/g which is 55.1%
of the ThOD value of 2.54 g/g.
Chemical/Physical. Kanno et al. (1982) studied the aqueous reaction of o-toluidine and other
substituted aromatic hydrocarbons (aniline, toluidine, 1- and 2-naphthylamine, phenol, cresol,
pyrocatechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, and 1-naphthol) with hypochlorous acid in the presence of
ammonium ion. They reported that the aromatic ring was not chlorinated as expected but was
cleaved by chloramine forming cyanogen chloride. As the pH was lowered, the amount of
cyanogen chloride formed increased (Kanno et al., 1982).
o-Toluidine will not hydrolyze because it does not contain a hydrolyzable functional group
(Kollig, 1993).
Metabolism
Absorption of O-toluidine from the gastrointestinal tract in rats is rapid with peak blood values at 1 h; blood values were near zero in 24 h (Sencyuk and Rucinska 1984a). The urine was the main excretory route; > 92% in 24 h (Cheever et al 1980). At an oral dose of 20 mg/kg, 26% was excreted in the urine in 24 h as O-toluidine (Senczuk and Rucinska 1984b). Kulkarni et al (1983) demonstrated that N-hydroxy-O-toluidine and O-nitrosotoluene are urinary metabolites of otoluidine. Other urinary metabolites in rats have included conjugated aminomethylphenols (Cheever et al 1980), azoxytoluene, N-acetyl-O-toluidine, N-acetyl-oaminobenzylalcohol, 4-amino-m-cresol, N-acetyl-4-amino-m-cresol, anthranilic acid, N-acetylanthranilic acid (Son et al 1980). Sulfate conjugates predominate over glucuronides by a ratio of 6:1. Thus, in rats, the major metabolic routes are N-acetylation and 4-hydroxylation. Human urinary metabolites (after administration of prilocaine) included O-toluidine,P-hydroxy-O-toluidine, and O-hydroxy-toluidine (Hjelm et al 1972). The primary metabolism of O-toluidine takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum. Exposure to O-toluidine enhances the microsomal activity of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (particularly in kidney), NADPH-cyto-chrome c reductase and the content of cytochrome P-450 (Gnojkowski et al 1984).

Purification Methods
In general, methods similar to those for purifying aniline can be used, e.g. distillation from zinc dust, at reduced pressure, under nitrogen. Berliner and May [J Am Chem Soc 49 1007 1927] purified it via the oxalate. Twice-distilled o-toluidine is dissolved in four times its volume of diethyl ether, and the equivalent amount of oxalic acid needed to form the dioxalate is added as its solution in diethyl ether. (If p-toluidine is present, its oxalate precipitates and can be removed by filtration.) Evaporation of the ethereal solution gives crystals of o-toluidine dioxalate [Beilstein 12 III 1494, 12 IV 1817]. These are filtered off, recrystallised five times from water containing a small amount of oxalic acid (to prevent hydrolysis), then treated with dilute aqueous Na2CO3 to liberate the amine which is separated, dried (CaCl2) and distilled under reduced pressure. The benzoyl derivative has m 144o (from EtOH). [Beilstein 12 H 772, 12 I 372, 12 II 429, 12 III 1837, 12 IV 1744.]

Minimization of Back-Electron Transfer Enables the Elusive sp3 C?H Functionalization of Secondary Anilines
Zhao, Huaibo,Leonori, Daniele
supporting information, p. 7669 - 7674 (2021/03/08)
Anilines are some of the most used class of substrates for application in photoinduced electron transfer. N,N-Dialkyl-derivatives enable radical generation α to the N-atom by oxidation followed by deprotonation. This approach is however elusive to monosubstituted anilines owing to fast back-electron transfer (BET). Here we demonstrate that BET can be minimised by using photoredox catalysis in the presence of an exogenous alkylamine. This approach synergistically aids aniline SET oxidation and then accelerates the following deprotonation. In this way, the generation of α-anilinoalkyl radicals is now possible and these species can be used in a general sense to achieve divergent sp3 C?H functionalization.

Magnetically‐recoverable Schiff base complex of Pd(II) immobilized on Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles: an efficient catalyst for the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to aniline derivatives
Azadi, Sedigheh,Esmaeilpour, Mohsen,Sardarian, Ali Reza
, p. 809 - 821 (2021/07/20)
Fe3O4@SiO2/Schiff base/Pd(II) is reported as a magnetically recoverable heterogeneous catalyst for the chemoselective reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to the corresponding amines through catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH). In this regard, a small amount of the nanocatalyst (0.52?mol% Pd) and hydrazine hydrate, showing safe characteristics and perfect ability as the hydrogen donor, were added to the nitro substrates. The experiments described the successful reduction of aromatic nitro compounds with good to excellent yields and short reaction times. The catalyst, due to its magnetic property, could be simply separated from the reaction mixture by a permanent magnet and reused in seven consecutive reactions without considerable loss in its activity. Moreover, the leaching of Pd was only 3.6% after the seventh run. Thus, the most striking feature of this method is to use a small amount of the magnetic nanocatalyst along with a cheap and safe hydrogen source to produce the important amine substances selectively, which makes the method economical, cheap, environmentally friendly, and simple.
