Abstract

This work deals with mechanochemical synthesis of phthalylsulphathiazole involving fluid phases. Model optical microscopy experiments with crystal samples have revealed that sulphathiazole can interact with phthalic anhydride without direct contact of these substances at temperatures of about 100oC. Scanning calorimetry measurements showed that the synthesis temperature is lowered during mechanical activation of reagents. The reagents do not undergo fusion under the conditions of mechanical activation. Transport of phthalic anhydride through the gas phase was assumed to be the most likely mechanism of synthesis in a mechanochemical reactor.
