Continuous preparation method and preparation system of 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid

The present invention belongs to the technical field of 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid, specifically relates to a continuous preparation method and preparation system of 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid. The continuous preparation method of 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid comprising: the o-cresol and the alkali solution into a salt reaction, to obtain a phenol salt solution; after the chloroacetic acid is added to the phenol salt solution for condensation reaction, the reaction solution is evaporated to obtain o-toluoxyacetate; organic solvent and acid are added to the o-toluoxyacetate, after acidification reaction, the reaction mixture is separated from the intermediate solution; chlorine is introduced into the intermediate solution, and after the chlorination reaction, the product solution is separated After crystal separation and drying of the product solution, 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid was prepared. By configuring an automated control system through continuous production, human resources can be greatly reduced.

Finding new elicitors that induce resistance in rice to the white-backed planthopper Sogatella furcifera

Herein we report a new way to identify chemical elicitors that induce resistance in rice to herbivores. Using this method, by quantifying the induction of chemicals for GUS activity in a specific screening system that we established previously, 5 candidate elicitors were selected from the 29 designed and synthesized phenoxyalkanoic acid derivatives. Bioassays confirmed that these candidate elicitors could induce plant defense and then repel feeding of white-backed planthopper Sogatella furcifera.
