Storage method
Storage Precautions[26] Store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature does not exceed 30°C and the relative humidity does not exceed 70%. The packaging must be sealed and protected from moisture. They should be stored separately from oxidants, metal powders, alcohols, and food chemicals, and avoid mixed storage. Equipped with the appropriate variety and quantity of fire equipment. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.
Synthesis method
1. Toluene continuous photochlorination method Add dry iron-free toluene into an iron-free reactor and perform high-temperature chlorination under light. The chlorination product is then fractionated to obtain benzyl chloride, the by-product hydrogen chloride is absorbed with water to obtain hydrochloric acid, and the by-product α-dichloromethylbenzene can be hydrolyzed to produce benzaldehyde.
2. Toluene non-photothermal chlorine Chemical method: Toluene is first allowed to stand for more than 6 hours to remove iron, and then sent to the chlorination pot through a high-level tank. It is heated to boiling with steam and then stopped heating. Chlorine gas is introduced for chlorination. The benzyl chloride produced by the continuous reaction passes through the bottom. The overflow pipe enters the storage tank after cooling. Benzyl chloride is mainly produced by chlorination of toluene. At present, there are two main methods at home and abroad: photochlorination method and photothermal chlorination method. In terms of process operation, the two methods include intermittent operation and continuous operation. According to the reactor structure, continuous operation can be divided into two types: horizontal continuous operation and vertical continuous operation. Since the continuous photochlorination of toluene has the advantages of being easy to start in small batches and having a faster reaction speed than the photothermal chlorination method, many domestic manufacturers adopt this process. Generally, small horizontal series continuous reactor groups are used. Add dry iron-free toluene into a glass chlorination bottle, heat it to 110°C, and slowly boil the liquid. According to the mass ratio of chlorine gas to toluene is 1:2.5, introduce chlorine gas under fluorescent lamp irradiation, and proceed at 110-120°C. High temperature chlorination reaction to the end. Recover unreacted toluene by distillation, and collect the 160-180°C fraction to obtain crude benzyl chloride. Then carry out fractionation under normal pressure and collect the 176-182°C fraction to obtain the finished product of benzyl chloride.
Toluene photothermal chlorination generally uses large vertical continuous enamel reactors. In addition, benzyl chloride can be produced by reacting toluene with sulfur chloride in the presence of a catalyst peroxide, or by chloromethylating the benzene ring under the catalysis of zinc chloride.
3. Preparation method:
In a reaction bottle equipped with a thermometer, a reflux condenser (a calcium chloride drying sound is connected to the top, and the drying tube is connected to a hydrogen chloride and chlorine gas absorption device) and a ventilation tube, add 92g (1.0mol) of toluene (2) , a few grains of zeolite, heated in an oil bath until boiling. Use a 200W light bulb to illuminate ①, pass in chlorine gas dried with concentrated sulfuric acid (directly to the bottom of the reaction bottle), and continue to pass chlorine in a slightly boiling state until the temperature in the bottle rises to 156°C. , stop passing chlorine. Atmospheric pressure distillation, first recover unreacted toluene, and then collect the fraction between 165 and 185°C. Redistill and collect the fraction between 178 and 182°C. 90 g of benzyl chloride (1)① was obtained, with a yield of 70%. Note: ① Fluorescent lamp or quartz lamp can also be used for irradiation. This reaction is a free radical reaction. ② It can also be prepared by reacting methyl with sulfoxide chloride in the presence of amyl peroxide, or by reactions such as chloromethylation of benzene.

Purpose
Used as dye intermediates and in the synthesis of tannins, spices, pharmaceuticals, etc. [27]
