Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing diethyl carbonate by two steps of coupling reaction. The method takes carbamide, ethanol and glycol as raw materials and takes an appropriate metal oxide as a catalyst. The catalyst, the carbamide, the ethanol and the glycol are added into a reaction kettle according to a certain proportion; the carbamide and the glycol have alcoholysis reaction at a temperature of between 160 and 180 DEG C and a pressure of between 2.2 and 3.5MPa to produce an intermediate product of ethylene carbonate, and the ethylene carbonate and the ethanol have ester exchange reaction to produce diethyl carbonate. Compared with the sole carbamide alcoholysis method, the two steps of the coupling reaction effectively reduce gibbs free energy of the reaction. The produced target product of diethyl carbonate has a yield coefficient up to 78 percent. Meanwhile, the process does not produce water, thereby bringing convenience to the subsequent separation and the glycol can be recycled.

Description

A kind of method of preparing diethyl carbonate by two-step coupling reaction
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of diethyl carbonate, is raw material by urea, ethanol and ethylene glycol particularly, the method for preparing diethyl carbonate by two-step coupling reaction.
Background technology
Diethyl carbonate (diethyl carbonate) vehicle economy C is a kind of important very low environmental friendliness organic carbonate of toxicity.Its molecular formula is C 5H 10O 3, relative molecular weight 118.13, structural formula is:
Because of containing ethyl, oxyethyl group, carbonyl and carbonyl oxyethyl group in its molecular structure, therefore diethyl carbonate can carry out ethylation reaction, ethoxylation, carbonylation reaction and carbonyl ethoxylation, can also carry out condensation reaction, condensation and cyclization reaction etc. with multiple organic compound.Can react with the compound of the compound that contains active hydrogen group as diethyl carbonate, generate polycarbonate with dibasic alcohol or dihydric phenol reaction as alcohol, phenol, amine, ester.It has the general character of ester, can carry out all reactions of ester, is important organic synthesis intermediate.According to rough Statistics, diethyl carbonate can be produced 35 big classes, hundreds of derived product.Be widely used in agricultural chemicals, medicine intermediate production at present.Along with whole world environment protection and more and more strictness of Occupational safety hygienic requirements, the market of products such as the only just alternative phosgene of diethyl carbonate, methyl-sulfate, methyl chloride, methyl-chloroformate is just considerable.Diethyl carbonate or with the mixture of other compounds, also can be used as the electrolytic solution of lithium ion battery, also can be used as the softening agent of polymer gel electrolyte, be used for increasing electroconductibility and stability.DEC can be used as the oxygenated additive of fuel also because of its higher oxygen level (40.6%) and octane value (RON114, MON 101), to improve the octane value of fuel, reduces the tail gas smoke content, and this is its maximum potential use.
Diethyl carbonate traditional synthetic method mainly comprise phosgenation etc., be raw material because of it adopts phosgene and ethanol, poor stability, " three wastes " amount is big, eliminates gradually.At present, ethanol liquid-phase oxidative carbonylation method is the most a kind of production method of domestic and international application.At first found by Fenton in 1966, and adopted carbon monoxide and pure catalytic gas phase oxidation coupling to make carbonic ether and barkite, after this research day animando of this respect.This kind method Atom economy reach 86.18%, by product is harmless water, meets the principle of Green Chemistry.Can etching apparatus but the employed CuCl catalyzer of this method produces HCl in reaction process, and catalyst life shortens, and has water to generate simultaneously in the product, increased separation purification difficulty, also has hidden peril of explosion.
From the synthetic difficult ester of producing of a kind of ester that is easy to get is method commonly used the organic synthesis, i.e. ester-interchange method.According to the raw material difference that it adopted, its production technique mainly contains transesterify and the carbonate and the alcoholic acid transesterification reaction of ethyl sulfate and carbonate.Though ester-interchange method reaction conditions gentleness, productive rate is higher, and this route expensive raw material price influences the investment and the cost of suitability for industrialized production.
Preparing diethyl carbonate by urea alcoholysis method is a kind of new production technique of developing in recent years, all is in the laboratory study stage both at home and abroad at present.This technology with wide material sources, cheap urea and ethanol as basic raw material, thereby make the purposes of urea expand to the chemical industry field by traditional agriculture field.Reacting used catalyzer mainly comprises: alkali metal compound, transition metal simple substance and compound, organic tin compound and quaternary ammonium compounds etc.Because anhydrous generation in this art production process is purified later separation and is oversimplified.But the required severe reaction conditions of this technology, and yield is lower.This results of laboratory shows: though ZnO is best to the catalytic effect of this reaction, the yield of DEC also only is 14.2% [11]
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is a kind of novel process of attempting developing, promptly solve the low problem of alcoholysis of urea yield and solve the expensive less economical problem of ester-interchange method raw material again for the yield that improves diethyl carbonate.
For reaching above purpose, the present invention adopts following technical scheme to be achieved: a kind of method of preparing diethyl carbonate by two-step coupling reaction comprises the steps:
(1) by urea: ethanol: ethylene glycol is 1: the mol ratio of 3-7: 6-10 adds in the reactor, and adds the catalyzer of described quality of material 5-10%, seals, and described catalyzer is the oxide compound of transition metal or the oxide compound of alkaline-earth metal;
(2) with the nitrogen purging reactor and replace air in the still, and the still internal pressure is prefabricated to 0.6~0.8Mpa, be heated to 160 ℃-180 ℃ of temperature of reaction, and make the still internal pressure remain on 2.2~3.5Mpa;
(3) turn on agitator, stirring velocity are 600~800rpm, react at least 4 hours;
(4) after reaction is finished,, obtain diethyl carbonate, ethylene glycol and excessive unreacted alcohol mixture with the reactor cool to room temperature.Remove solid catalyst by centrifugation, the ethylene glycol that redistillation separates is wherein prepared against secondary response use down, and the liquid that obtains at last mainly contains ethanol and final product diethyl carbonate.
In the aforesaid method, in step (3) reaction process, can regularly carry out the same processing of same step (4) to the about 1ml still liquid of reaction solution sampling, form to determine the yield of product with the gas chromatograph analysis of mixtures then by sampling valve.The oxide compound of described transition metal is a zinc oxide, and titanium oxide is zirconic a kind of, and the oxide compound of alkaline-earth metal is a calcium oxide, magnesian a kind of.
The present invention is a raw material by selecting urea, ethanol for use, adds ethylene glycol simultaneously as couplant.By choosing appropriate catalyst, and processing condition such as suitable reaction temperature, reaction pressure, in a reactor, realized that urea and glycol reaction generate NSC 11801, NSC 11801 is further carried out two reaction couplings that transesterify generates diethyl carbonate and ethylene glycol with ethanol.That is:
NH 2CONH 2+HOCH 2CH 2OH→C 3H 4O 3+2NH 3
C 3H 4O 3+2CH 3CH 2OH→HOCH 2CH 2OH+CO(OCH 2CH 3) 2
Though Gibbs (gibbs) free energy of two reactions under standard state is respectively 4.16kJ/mol and 28.52kJ/mol, the above Gibbs free energy of 418K all becomes negative value.And the Gibbs free energy change of alcoholysis of urea under standard state turns to 31.61kJ/mol.Therefore, two-step approach has more advantage on thermodynamics.By the technological design of two-step approach, make the total Gibbs free energy in reaction coupling back reduce greatly, thereby the diethyl carbonate yield improve a lot with respect to the Gibbs free energy of urea alcoholysis single reaction, can reach 78%.The ethylene glycol that participates in coupling reaction in addition consumes in first reaction, generates second reaction again, and therefore, it can be recycled, and has embodied better economic.Simultaneously, the ethylene glycol boiling point is 198 ℃, differs greatly for 126 ℃ with the boiling point of diethyl carbonate, thereby makes later separation more convenient.
In sum, the used reaction raw materials of the present invention is cheap and easy to get; Coupling reaction has more advantage from thermodynamics analysis than alcoholysis of urea; Later separation is convenient, and couplant ethylene glycol can be recycled.
