Process for producing 3,5-difluoroaniline

A process for producing 3,5-difluoroaniline, which comprises reacting a benzonitrile compound of the formula (I): wherein each of X1, X2 and X3 is hydrogen, chlorine, bromine or a cyano group, provided that at least one of X1 to X3 is a cyano group, with a mineral acid for hydrolysis and decarboxyla...

Zusammenfassung:A process for producing 3,5-difluoroaniline, which comprises reacting a benzonitrile compound of the formula (I): wherein each of X1, X2 and X3 is hydrogen, chlorine, bromine or a cyano group, provided that at least one of X1 to X3 is a cyano group, with a mineral acid for hydrolysis and decarboxylation to obtain an aniline compound of the formula (II): wherein each of X4, X5 and X6 is hydrogen, chlorine or bromine, provided that at least one of X4 to X6 is hydrogen, and in the case of a compound of the formula (II) wherein X4, X5 and X6 are not simultaneously hydrogen, reacting such a compound with hydrogen in a presence of a catalyst for reduction to obtain 3,5-difluoroaniline.
