Products are widely used and o-fluoroaniline has large room for growth.

       O-Fluoroaniline, also known as 2-fluoroaniline, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C₆H₆FN. The appearance of o-fluoroaniline is light yellow liquid, oily; the color is not obvious when the amount is small. O-fluoroaniline is an important intermediate for the synthesis of fluorine-containing medicines and dyes. It can be used to synthesize heat-sensitive drugs, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, anti-tumor drugs, new anti-inflammatory drugs, new generation highly selective COX-2 inhibitors, etc. Intermediate synthesis of drugs,

At present, the production of o-fluoroaniline is mainly carried out by reducing o-fluoronitrobenzene with iron powder. This method will produce a large amount of iron sludge and amine-containing wastewater, which is harmful to the environment. In recent years, as environmental pollution problems have become more and more serious, my country has successively launched a number of environmental protection policies, coupled with the implementation and promotion of safety production policies, which has raised the entry threshold for the o-fluoroaniline industry, causing some small-scale enterprises with substandard production technologies to The o-fluoroaniline enterprise withdraws. At present, there are only a small number of o-fluoroaniline manufacturers in China. Representative companies include Zhejiang Yongtai Technology Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Jieshi New Materials Co., Ltd., and Zhejiang Jitai New Materials Co., Ltd., and the market concentration is high.

According to the “2023-2028 China Ortho-Fluoroaniline Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center, In recent years, thanks to the promotion of synthetic heat-sensitive dye FH-102 products and the increased market penetration of o-fluoroaniline in pharmaceutical intermediates and other fields, sales of o-fluoroaniline in China have continued to grow. In 2022, China’s o-fluoroaniline sales volume will be about 2,000 tons.

Fluorobenzene is an important basic raw material in aromatic fluorides. In addition to being used to synthesize medicines, pesticides and dyes, it can also be further used to synthesize fluorobenzene derivatives through nitration, chlorination, bromination, acylation, reduction and other reactions. the above areas. However, during the production process of fluorine chemical products, a large amount of fluorine-containing wastewater will be produced, causing great harm to vegetation, animals and humans, and the poisoning is difficult to recover. Therefore, Europe, North America and other regions have gradually withdrawn from o-fluoroaniline and its related industries. . At this stage, global o-fluoroaniline production capacity is mainly concentrated in Asian countries such as China and India. Thanks to its good domestic industrial chain foundation, China has developed into the world’s largest producer and consumer of o-fluoroaniline.

Industry analysts said that in recent years, the Chinese government has been actively adjusting the chemical industry, promoting high-quality and industry-wide development of the chemical industry, and striving to From a “chemical power” to a “chemical power”. O-fluoroaniline is widely used downstream. The growth in the output of related products in the field of pharmaceutical intermediates and dyes has promoted the expansion of o-fluoroaniline market demand. China’s o-fluoroaniline industry is developing well, with market demand increasing from 1,561 tons in 2017 to 2022. 2131 tons per year. Overall, China’s o-fluoroaniline market has large room for growth.
