Method for preparing 4-oxoisophorone by catalytic oxidation of beta-isophorone with solid-liquid two-phase
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for preparing 4-oxoisophorone by catalytic oxidation of beta-isophorone with solid-liquid two phases.
Background
4-oxo-isophorone (KIP for short) is an important chemical intermediate product, not only can be used in cosmetics and perfumes, but also can be used for synthesizing carotenoid and vitamin. Because of the importance of 4-oxoisophorone in chemical products, the synthesis of 4-oxoisophorone has been a research hotspot for a long time.
At present, two methods for synthesizing KIP are commonly used, namely, beta-isophorone (beta-IP for short) or alpha-isophorone (alpha-IP for short) is oxidized to synthesize KIP.
Patent US4046813 describes a process for the preparation of KIP by catalytic oxidation of beta-isophorone using a vanadium, iron, cobalt, manganese acetylacetonate complex as catalyst in the presence of pyridine, which, although having a conversion of about 100%, involves conversion of beta-IP to alpha-IP during the reaction and the formation of a large amount of highly polymeric by-products, which makes the selectivity of the reaction not high.
Patent CN101417936A describes a method for preparing KIP by catalytic oxidation of α -IP under a metal-free catalytic system, but α -IP is difficult to oxidize and the reaction conversion rate is only 60% at the maximum.
Patent DE2526851 discloses a process for the catalytic oxidation of alpha-IP to produce KIP with the addition of molybdenum trioxide, but in order to achieve sufficiently high conversions, a time of 72 hours or more and a high temperature of 80 ℃ or more are required, and the yields achievable under these conditions are only within 50%.
Patent EP0425976 describes the oxidation of alpha-IP using phosphomolybdates as catalyst, with reaction results close to those of DE 2526851.
In US4898985, KIP is prepared by oxidation of beta-isophorone using porphyrin or phthalocyanine complexes of iron, copper, cobalt, manganese as catalyst, while triethylamine or ethylene glycol dimethyl ether is used as solvent. Although the method has high yield, the porphyrin or phthalocyanine transition metal catalyst is quite expensive and can be easily destroyed in the reaction, so that the reaction process has high cost. In addition, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether and triethylamine are dangerous under the operation condition, and the condition for realizing industrialization is not available at present.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,629,7404 describes a process for preparing 4-oxoisophorone by catalytic beta-IP oxidation using N, N-dimethylformamide and lithium acetate as catalytic system, which has the greatest disadvantage of easily generating o-KIP as a by-product of ortho-oxidation, which is close to KIP in physical properties and difficult to separate from KIP.
The above-described process for preparing 4-oxoisophorone is deficient in each of these two routes. The alpha-IP is directly oxidized into KIP, the required time is long, the conversion rate is low, and the selectivity is low; beta-IP can be easily oxidized by oxygen to prepare KIP, but a large amount of metal-containing waste liquid is generated by catalytic oxidation of a homogeneous catalyst, the catalyst is difficult to recycle, and the treatment difficulty and the environmental protection cost pressure are increased.
The prior publication does not mention a method for preparing 4-oxo-isophorone by using gamma-alumina loaded metal composite oxide as a catalyst to catalyze hydrogen peroxide to oxidize beta-isophorone.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the defects of the prior art, the invention aims to provide a method for preparing 4-oxoisophorone by catalytic oxidation of beta-isophorone through solid-liquid two-phase catalysis. The method adopts gamma-aluminum oxide loaded metal composite oxide as a catalyst to catalyze hydrogen peroxide to oxidize beta-isophorone, so as to prepare 4-oxo-isophorone. The method has the advantages of simple reaction process, high reaction yield and capability of recycling the catalyst, and the catalytic activity of the catalyst can be kept stable after the catalyst is reused for many times.
In order to achieve the purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the invention is as follows:
a method for preparing 4-oxo-isophorone by catalytic oxidation of beta-isophorone with solid-liquid two-phase catalyst comprises the following steps: the beta-isophorone and hydrogen peroxide are subjected to oxidation reaction in the presence of a solvent and a catalyst to obtain 4-oxo-isophorone.
As a specific implementation mode, adding beta-isophorone, solvent and catalyst into a reaction kettle, then dropwise adding hydrogen peroxide into the system, and carrying out oxidation reaction to obtain 4-oxo-isophorone.
The reaction equation for this reaction is as follows:
the catalyst is prepared by loading metal composite oxide in gamma-alumina powder (CuO-Co)2O3-Fe2O3-MgO/Al2O3) Wherein the mass content of the copper oxide is 1-10 percent, preferably 4-5 percent based on the total mass of the catalyst; the mass content of the ferric oxide is 0.5-2%, preferably 1-1.2%; the mass content of the cobalt oxide is 0.5-2 percent, preferably 1-1.2 percent; the content of magnesium oxide is 0.5-2 wt%, preferably 1-1.2 wt%. The average particle diameter of the catalyst is 10 to 80 μm, preferably 30 to 40 μm.
As a preferred technical scheme, beta-isophorone and hydrogen peroxide are subjected to oxidation reaction in the presence of a solvent, a catalyst and a cocatalyst to obtain 4-oxo-isophorone. The cocatalyst is selected from one or more of azodiisobutyl amidine hydrochloride, azodiisobutyl imidazoline hydrochloride and azoisobutyryl cyano formamide, and the azodiisobutyl imidazoline hydrochloride is preferred.
The cocatalyst is a water-soluble azo compound, and the cocatalyst has the function of improving the selectivity of a product 4-oxoisophorone obtained by catalyzing beta-isophorone oxidation by a metal composite oxide catalyst, and is different from the function of a conventional azo compound in the reaction. When no cocatalyst is added in the reaction system, most of the beta-isophorone is oxidized to generate 4-hydroxyisophorone, and the yield of the 4-oxoisophorone is low. When the cocatalyst is present in the reaction system, the 4-hydroxyisophorone can be oxidized to generate 4-oxoisophorone more easily, so that the selectivity of the main product is improved.
The catalyst used by the invention has a porous structure, the reaction sites of the catalyst reach the nanometer scale, and the catalyst can effectively catalyze the oxidation reaction of beta-IP. The reaction process is divided into four stages: hydrogen peroxide is catalyzed on the surface of the active component of the catalyst to generate hydroxyl radical, the hydroxyl radical oxidizes beta-isophorone to generate 4-hydroxyisophorone, the hydroxyl radical oxidizes 4-hydroxyisophorone to generate 4, 4-dihydroxyisophorone, and 4, 4-dihydroxyisophorone is dehydrated to generate 4-oxoisophorone. The above four stages occur simultaneously during the reaction.
