Description

Produce the method for indoles
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of producing indoles.
Background technology
Indoles is the important source material of system each medicine, agricultural chemicals, spices, dyestuff and fodder additives, is important heterocycle fine-chemical intermediate.The throughput in the current whole world is 7000t/a.Along with the development of its applied research, derived medicine and the agricultural chemicals of many important high added values by it, particularly the market requirement rapid development of current indole derivatives tryptophane, only this item whole world distant view demand is at 100000t/a.Therefore, the market outlook of indoles are very wide.
Current industrial main employing ortho-chlorotolu'ene multistep processes synthesis of indole.Ortho-chlorotolu'ene obtains dihydroindole through chlorination, cyaniding, ammonification, Dehydration, then dehydrogenation and indoles.Because synthesis step is various, sepn process is numerous and diverse, and energy consumption is large, and cost is high, and preparation process produces a large amount of wastes and causes environmental pollution.The method that China mainly applies this backwardness at present produces indoles, and meanwhile, China successfully realizes the industrialization of fourth indole synthesis tryptophane now, and therefore, the technique being badly in need of substituting is simple, the new technology of environmental friendliness and the inexpensive synthesis of indole of cost.
With aniline and ethylene glycol for raw material heterogeneous catalyst One Step Synthesis of Indole not only low in raw material price, production cost is low, and operating procedure is simple, and environmental friendliness, has obvious advantage, is the most promising one of synthesis of indole.The eighties in 20th century, Japan carried out a large amount of correlative studys to this catalyzer.Matsuda etc. find that the reactions of catalyzer to aniline and ethylene glycol One Step Synthesis of Indole such as Cd, Cu, Ag and Zn all have certain activity (United States Patent (USP) 4436917).350 DEG C, under normal pressure, in fixed bed reaction, the yield of indoles all more than 20% (because aniline is excessive, in ethylene glycol).Wherein Ag/SiO 2the indoles yield of-ZnO catalyst reaches more than 40%.But experiment also finds a main problem: catalyzer is at a few hours inactivation, and yield straight line declines.This is mainly because aniline and indoles are all containing the atom N having lone-pair electron, and these materials chemisorption is on a catalyst strong especially, is difficult to desorption, is easy to cause catalyst carbon deposition inactivation.
T.Honda etc. have developed Ag-Co/SiO 2-ZnO catalyst (European patent 0427287).First he prepare specific surface by water glass and zinc nitrate coprecipitation method is 240m 2the SiO of/g 2-ZnO carrier, then uses first back loading 0.6%Co and 11%Ag of sub-dip method, obtained Ag-Co/SiO 2-ZnO catalyst.Result shows, under 1.0MPa, 375 DEG C of conditions, in fixed-bed reactor, and Ag-Co/SiO 2on-ZnO catalyst, the yield of aniline and ethylene glycol One Step Synthesis of Indole reaches 78%, and the stability of catalyzer is relatively good simultaneously.And this catalyzer of order can pass through charcoal regeneration, the performance of regenerated catalyst is substantially constant.
Recently, domestic also beginning has carried out this research.Bibliographical information (catalysis journal .2003, V24 (6), 471-474) pickling process have developed Ag/SiO 2and Cu/SiO 2catalyzer, and the catalytic performance having investigated aniline, ethylene glycol One Step Synthesis of Indole.The indoles yield of two kinds of catalyzer can reach about 80%, but the very fast inactivation of catalyzer, and the yield reacting 3 hours rear catalysts declines a lot.
Still there is the lower shortcoming of indoles yield in prior art, the present invention solves this problem targetedly.
