Method for preparing intermediate bis(2-chloroethylsulfonyl) methane of bis(vinyl sulphone) methane

The invention relates to the field of organic chemical synthesis, in particular to a method for preparing high-purity bis(2-chloroethylsulfonyl) methane, and provides a method for preparing an intermediate bis(2-chloroethylsulfonyl) methane of bis(vinyl sulphone) methane.The method comprises the following steps that methanedisulfonyl dichloride and ethylene are adopted as raw materials, and under catalyzing of a lewis acid catalyst, reacting is carried out to generate bis(2-chloroethylsulfonyl) methane.According to the method for preparing bis(2-chloroethylsulfonyl) methane, methanedisulfonyl dichloride and ethylene are adopted as the raw materials, and bis(2-chloroethylsulfonyl) methane is obtained under the catalytic action of lewis acid or lewis acid load on a carrier.Compared with an existing production route, according to the method, the reaction steps are reduced, the production period is shortened, operation is easy, various poisonous and harmful reagents and reagents unfriendly to the environment are abandoned, environment friendliness is achieved, and a synthetic route with wide industrial prospects is achieved.

Synthesis of vinylsulfones

Disclosed is a process comprising reacting a primary alcohol sulfone with a reducing agent and a halogenating agent in the presence of an amide compound present in an amount of less than 1 part amide per part of primary alcohol sulfone to form a vinylsulfone.
