Production method It comes from the reaction of 2,4-dimethyl aniline, triethyl orthoformate and methylamine. The consumption amount of raw materials is that: 2,4-dimethyl aniline (off 100%): 350kg/t, triethylorthoformate (off 100%): 500kg / t, monomethylamine 70kg / t, xylene 750kg / t.
Method one：
Preparing of N-2,4- dimethylphenyl-N'--methyl-formamidine. Xylene is nitrated, reduced and separated to obtained 2,4-dimethyl aniline. Then acidify with hydrochloric acid to yield the corresponding salts. Protocol: The mixture of 55.1g (0.35mol) 2,4- dimethylaniline hydrochloride, 83.7g (0.4mol) of p-toluenesulfonyl chloride and 150mL N-dimethylformamide was cooled and stirred. After the end of the exothermic reaction, stir the mixture at room temperature for 4h, add then pour them all into cold water for adjustment into basicity with 10mol/L sodium hydroxide solution. During this time, the temperature was kept below 10 °C. Filter, wash with water, dry, and re-crystal using cyclohexane to obtain N-2,4- dimethylphenyl -N'- methyl formamidine, m.p. 75 ~ 76 °C, yield 85%.
The Synthesis of amitraz: The mixture of 19.4g (0.12mol) N-2,4- dimethylphenyl -N'- methyl formamidine, 0.3 g of p-toluenesulfonic acid, and 195mL of xylene is heated and refluxed for 48 h. dried was heated at reflux for 48h to release trimethylamine . After the completion of the reaction, distill out the xylene and solidify the residue under reduced pressure. Re-crystal twice using isopropanol to obtain amitraz, melting point 88 ~ 89 ℃, yield 90%.
Or perform reaction in the presence of cyanophenyl with Cu2O as catalyst.
Preparation Method Two
Triethylorthoformate was reacted with 2,4-dimethyl aniline to get N- (2,4- xylene imino) ethyl (referred imidate). Then pass the dry methylamine gas into the imino ether, yielding Monocarboxamidine (N-2,4-xylyl -N'- methyl formamidine). Monocarboxamidine and imino ether is condensed into amitraz.
Preparation Method Three
2,4-dimethylaniline is reacted with formic acid to obtain N-2,4- xylene, dimethylformamide. Then interact with phosgene with triethylamine as acid binding agent to get 2,4-dimethylphenyl isocyanide. Then push dry methylamine gas into the mixture of dimethylphenyl isocyanide and cuprous oxide, reaction. Add cyclohexane (when the reaction mixture is still hot) after the completion of reaction, cool and filter out the Monocarboxamidine. Then react it with dimethylphenyl isocyanide in the presence of benzene to obtain amitraz.

Application A broad spectrum acaricide; It mainly takes effect through contact action. It also has effects such as stomach poisoning, fumigation, feeding, and repellent. Plants have a certain degree of penetration absorption to it. It is effective in treating immature nymphs, adult mites and mite eggs, and also effective to control mites which are resistant to other acaricide. It has a rapid efficacy and a long duration. It is used mainly control of spider mite and cotton bollworm, pink bollworm, an apple and quince spider mite, citrus spider mites, fleas, ticks rust, body lice of cattle, sheep, pigs, ticks, mange and mite, tea tarsal line mites, and beans & eggplant red spider. For the control of cotton spider mite, at the peak of egg hatch to the spread of immature nymph, use 1000 ~ 2000 times diluted 20% EC for uniform spray. At the time when starscream, bollworm and pink bollworm spread concurrently, using it can treat bug and mites together to some extent. It is safe to cotton ladybugs, lacewings and other natural enemy. For the control of citrus red mite and apple mite, use 1000 to 2000 times diluted water-diluted 20% EC to spray. For the control of citrus rust mite, use 1000 to 1200 times water diluted 20% EC on water for spray. Use 1500 times diluted version for spray for prevention of fleas. Use concentration of 50 ~ 100mg/L for spray or immersion in prevention and treatment of acari of cattle, sheep and other livestock animals. 
This product is a broad spectrum miticide. Mainly used for fruit trees, flowers, strawberries and other agricultural and horticultural crops. It has good efficacy in control of mites, especially for citrus mites. It can also be used to control cotton bollworm, pink bollworm; prevention and treatment of livestock parasites ticks, mites, scabies mites and the like. Amitraz is a good kind of acaricide.
Production method It comes from the reaction of 2,4-dimethyl aniline, triethyl orthoformate and methylamine. The consumption amount of raw materials is that: 2,4-dimethyl aniline (off 100%): 350kg/t, triethylorthoformate (off 100%): 500kg / t, monomethylamine 70kg / t, xylene 750kg / t.
Method one：
Preparing of N-2,4- dimethylphenyl-N'--methyl-formamidine. Xylene is nitrated, reduced and separated to obtained 2,4-dimethyl aniline. Then acidify with hydrochloric acid to yield the corresponding salts. Protocol: The mixture of 55.1g (0.35mol) 2,4- dimethylaniline hydrochloride, 83.7g (0.4mol) of p-toluenesulfonyl chloride and 150mL N-dimethylformamide was cooled and stirred. After the end of the exothermic reaction, stir the mixture at room temperature for 4h, add then pour them all into cold water for adjustment into basicity with 10mol/L sodium hydroxide solution. During this time, the temperature was kept below 10 °C. Filter, wash with water, dry, and re-crystal using cyclohexane to obtain N-2,4- dimethylphenyl -N'- methyl formamidine, m.p. 75 ~ 76 °C, yield 85%.
The Synthesis of amitraz: The mixture of 19.4g (0.12mol) N-2,4- dimethylphenyl -N'- methyl formamidine, 0.3 g of p-toluenesulfonic acid, and 195mL of xylene is heated and refluxed for 48 h. dried was heated at reflux for 48h to release trimethylamine . After the completion of the reaction, distill out the xylene and solidify the residue under reduced pressure. Re-crystal twice using isopropanol to obtain amitraz, melting point 88 ~ 89 ℃, yield 90%.
Or perform reaction in the presence of cyanophenyl with Cu2O as catalyst.
Preparation Method Two
Triethylorthoformate was reacted with 2,4-dimethyl aniline to get N- (2,4- xylene imino) ethyl (referred imidate). Then pass the dry methylamine gas into the imino ether, yielding Monocarboxamidine (N-2,4-xylyl -N'- methyl formamidine). Monocarboxamidine and imino ether is condensed into amitraz.
Preparation Method Three
2,4-dimethylaniline is reacted with formic acid to obtain N-2,4- xylene, dimethylformamide. Then interact with phosgene with triethylamine as acid binding agent to get 2,4-dimethylphenyl isocyanide. Then push dry methylamine gas into the mixture of dimethylphenyl isocyanide and cuprous oxide, reaction. Add cyclohexane (when the reaction mixture is still hot) after the completion of reaction, cool and filter out the Monocarboxamidine. Then react it with dimethylphenyl isocyanide in the presence of benzene to obtain amitraz.
