Triallyl isocyanurate and process for producing the same
The present invention provides triallyl isocyanurate comprising a less amount of corrosive substances by identifying the corrosive substances among impurities included in the triallyl isocyanurate. Triallyl isocyanurate of the present invention comprises an organic chlorine compound represented by the following chemical formula (I) in an amount of not more than 500 ppm: wherein a bond expressed by a wavy line indicates that the organic chlorine compound is a cis-type compound, a trans-type compound or a mixture comprising the cis-type and trans-type compounds at an optional ratio.
1. Triallyl isocyanurate comprising an organic chlorine compound represented by the following chemical formula (I) in an amount of not more than 500 ppm:
wherein a bond expressed by a wavy line indicates that the organic chlorine compound is a cis-type compound, a trans-type compound or a mixture comprising the cis-type and trans-type compounds at an optional ratio.
2. A process for producing triallyl isocyanurate comprising the steps of reacting allyl chloride with sodium cyanate to obtain allyl isocyanate and subjecting the thus obtained allyl isocyanate to trimerization, wherein the allyl chloride used as a raw material has a content of 1,3-dichloropropene (content of a cis-type compound, a trans-type compound or a mixture comprising the cis-type and trans-type compounds at an optional ratio) of not more than 200 ppm.
3. A process for producing triallyl isocyanurate comprising the step of reacting allyl chloride with isocyanuric acid in the presence of a base catalyst, wherein the allyl chloride used as a raw material has a content of 1,3-dichloropropene (content of a cis-type compound, a trans-type compound or a mixture comprising the cis-type and trans-type compounds at an optional ratio) of not more than 200 ppm.
4. The process according to claim 2 , wherein the allyl chloride used as a raw material has a content of 1,3-dichloropropene (content of a cis-type compound, a trans-type compound or a mixture comprising the cis-type and trans-type compounds at an optional ratio) of not more than 100 ppm.
