Industrially relevant phosgenation mechanisms of 2,4-toluenediamine (2,4-TDA) were investigated using G3MP2B3 model chemistry. Six reaction pathways had been explored, which resulted in the formation of toluene diisocyanate (2,4-TDI) including different scenarios of the 'phosgenations first' and 'consecutive phosgenations' mechanisms in both gas and condensed phases. Two possible 'phosgenations first' mechanisms show superior to the others in terms of energy, regardless of which phases are considered. Due to the o-dichlorobenzene (ODCB) solvation, the reaction barriers are dramatically reduced compared to the gas-phase reaction mechanism and the solvent effect can be described by linear relationship. Standard enthalpy of formation value was also recommended for 2,4-TDA (59.3 kJ/mol) and 2,4-TDI (-94.1 kJ/mol), as well as for the gas-phase intermediates (IM).
