Description

The manufacture method of acrylic or methacrylic acid alkyl ester
The present invention relates to the manufacture method of a kind of acrylic or methacrylic acid [hereinafter to be referred as (methyl) vinylformic acid] alkyl ester.Specifically, relate to acrylic acid low-carbon-ester of a kind of utilization (methyl) and higher alcohols or polyvalent alcohol and carry out transesterification reaction, make the method for (methyl) acrylic acid higher alcohols or polyol ester.
People are known, (methyl) acrylic acid low-carbon-ester and higher alcohols or polyvalent alcohol are carried out transesterification reaction, make the method for (methyl) acrylic acid higher alcohols or polyol ester, usually used catalyzer comprises: the alcoholate of basic metal (or alkaline-earth metal) (U.S. Pat 976304), an acidic catalysts such as titan-alkoxide and sulfuric acid (the clear 48-37011 of U.S. Pat 3686268 and Japanese Patent).Say that from industrial respectively there is its different shortcoming in above-mentioned catalyzer, for example: with the alcoholate of the such basic metal of sodium methylate (or alkaline-earth metal) during as catalyzer, though have higher initial activity, but carry out with reaction, catalyst activity reduction is very fast, so that has to carry out constantly adding in the process catalyzer in reaction.In addition, after reaction finishes, need water that catalyst decomposes is removed, so that be suppressed at the polymerization of product in the fractionation by distillation process or reactant, thereby make technology loaded down with trivial details, complicated, and produce a large amount of waste water.When utilizing titan-alkoxide to make catalyzer, reactive activity and selectivity are all high, catalyzer does not need to add and special aftertreatment etc. in batches yet, but this catalyzer is responsive to water electrode, even contain the moisture content of trace in the reaction system catalyst decomposes was lost efficacy, so the requirement to moisture content in the reaction system is harsh, need give and carry out strict processed earlier.Corresponding with above-mentioned alkali series catalysts, the someone has proposed to utilize the method for an acidic catalysts such as sulfuric acid, though mostly an acidic catalyst is cheap compound, exists speed of response slow, easily produces pair reaction and equipment corrosion problems such as polymerization.For overcoming the shortcoming of above-mentioned catalyzer, the someone proposes to adopt the organic tin compound to obtain preferably as this catalyst for reaction (Japanese clear 54-41814) to imitate tiredly, but do not solve the repetition reuse problem of catalyzer again.Organic tin catalyzer price is expensive, as not solving the repetition reuse problem of catalyzer, does not then have an actual application value industrial.
Purpose of the present invention is exactly in order to solve the repetition reuse problem of above-mentioned catalyzer.Remarkable by adopting a kind of new stopper to reach polymerization inhibition effect, make and do not produce superpolymer in ester-exchange reaction and the fractionation by distillation process substantially, thereby catalyzer can repeatedly repeat reuse, thereby reaches the technology that simplifies the operation that reduces production costs, and reduces the purpose of three-waste pollution.
