Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for preparing diethyl carbonate, which uses dimethyl carbonate and ethanol as raw materials. A complex of potassium carbonate and polyethylene glycol is used as a catalyst of reactions, has high solubility in the diethyl carbonate, can avoid generating alkali metal carbonate through reactions with a large amount of carbonate to cause the deactivation of the catalyst, and is difficult to precipitate in a reboiler to plug pipelines. The catalyst has the advantages of high activity, difficult deactivation in continuous use, high solubility in the carbonate, difficult precipitation, etc. and can be circularly used, and production cost for producing the diethyl carbonate by ester exchange methods is reduced.

Description

The method for preparing diethyl carbonate
The present invention relates to be undertaken the method for transesterify synthesizing diethyl carbonate, relate in particular to the catalyzer that adopts in the building-up process by methylcarbonate and ethanol.
Diethyl carbonate is a kind of purposes organic compound very widely, contain alkoxyl group and carbonyl in its molecule, chemical property is active, can with reactions such as multiple alcohol, phenol, amine and ester, be a kind of solvent of excellent property and important organic synthesis intermediate, be widely used in industries such as electrolyte for Lithium Battery solvent, synthon, synthetic resins, pharmacy, also be a kind of good gasoline dope, thereby have very high industrial application value.
The traditional synthetic method of diethyl carbonate is a phosgenation, generates methyl-chloroformate by phosgene and ebullient ethanol synthesis earlier, continues to make diethyl carbonate with the dehydrated alcohol reaction again.To the back single step reaction, JP6-41019 (1994) has designed a flow process, and speed of reaction and yield all are significantly improved.The shortcoming of phosgenation is fairly obvious, its technical process complexity, and the operational cycle is long, and the toxicity of phosgene and intermediate methyl-chloroformate is big, and environmental pollution is serious, and by-product hydrochloric acid is serious to equipment corrosion.
In order to reduce the influence that phosgenation synthesizing diethyl carbonate operational path brings to environment, the Nie Zhaoguang (seeing East China University of Science's academic dissertation, 1995) of China proposes to carry out transesterification reaction with propylene carbonate and ethanol and makes diethyl carbonate.But because the equilibrium conversion (110 ℃ time be 25%) and the speed of response of reaction are all lower.Therefore, this method is also undesirable.
The catalyzer that adopts in above-mentioned transesterify process mostly is alkaline matter, can be homogeneous phase and heterogeneous.As patent US 4691041 strong alkali resin that proposes and the SiO that floods rare metal 2Deng, organic basess such as triethylamine that US 4062884 proposes and trolamine, the organophosphorus that US 4734518 proposes etc., NaOH, KOH, NaOCH that US 3803201 proposes 3, KOCH 3Derivative in basic metal, alkaline-earth metal.In these catalyzer, there is not the later separation problem in heterogeneous catalyst, but its activity is minimum; Though organic alkali catalyst has certain activity, than still low 10~100 times of mineral alkali activity.Therefore, in many cases, mineral alkali still becomes first-selected catalyzer with its high reactivity and low cost.
In Chinese patent 01105822.6, the contriver has proposed a kind of novel process of carrying out the transesterification reaction synthesizing diethyl carbonate with methylcarbonate and ethanol, in this patented technology, adopt highly basic such as alkali metal hydroxide, basic metal methylate or ethylate to make catalyzer, speed of response is very high, in actual application, find, alkali metal derivant catalyzer solubleness in diethyl carbonate is low, easily with a large amount of carbonic ethers that exist generation alkaline carbonate that reacts, cause catalyst deactivation, and in reboiler, separate out blocking pipe easily.Therefore Chinese patent 01105822.6 being further improved, is very necessary.
The objective of the invention is to disclose a kind of homogeneous complex that forms with alkaline carbonate and polyoxyethylene glycol (PEG) is the method for Preparation of catalysts diethyl carbonate, to overcome the above-mentioned defective that prior art exists.
Technical conceive of the present invention is such:
The present invention is a raw material with methylcarbonate and ethanol, in the presence of catalyzer, carry out transesterification reaction and obtain diethyl carbonate, the present invention with the complex compound of alkaline carbonate and polyoxyethylene glycol (PEG) as catalyst for reaction, because alkaline carbonate is a kind of weak base, polyoxyethylene glycol can form homogeneous complex with alkaline carbonate simultaneously, this complex compound solubleness in diethyl carbonate is higher, therefore, can avoid reacting with a large amount of carbonic ethers that exist, cause catalyst deactivation, and be difficult in reboiler, separating out blocking pipe.
Realize the technical scheme of the object of the invention:
The present invention is a raw material with methylcarbonate and ethanol, carries out transesterification reaction and obtain diethyl carbonate in the presence of catalyzer, and temperature of reaction is generally 25~130 ℃, and the reaction times is generally 10~120min; Be reflected under the normal pressure and carry out.
Said catalyzer is the complex compound of alkaline carbonate and polyoxyethylene glycol, and in the raw material total amount, the catalyzer add-on is 0.1%~10%, and is preferred 0.5%~5%, and wherein the mol ratio of alkaline carbonate and polyoxyethylene glycol is 0.2~5, preferred 0.5~3;
Said alkaline carbonate is one or more in yellow soda ash, salt of wormwood or the Quilonum Retard etc., preferably salt of wormwood.
After reaction finishes, adopt conventional method to separate, the alkaline carbonate and the polyoxyethylene glycol that are added are reusable, and be generally reusable more than 50 times and non-inactivation.
The homogeneous phase complex catalyst that alkaline carbonate provided by the invention and polyoxyethylene glycol (PEG) form, have advantages of high catalytic activity and speed of reaction faster, mol ratio as alkaline carbonate and polyoxyethylene glycol is 3, catalyst concn is 1% o'clock, under 60 ℃, the transformation efficiency of methylcarbonate is 91%, and the Option stage of diethyl carbonate is 50%.
By above-mentioned disclosed technical scheme as seen, compare with existing transesterification catalyst, the homogeneous phase complex catalyst that the present invention proposes has active high, the continuous use and is difficult for advantages such as inactivation can be recycled, the solubleness in carbonic ether is difficult for greatly separating out, further reduced the production cost of carbonate production by transesterification diethyl ester, improved and the perfect synthesis technique of ester-interchange method diethyl carbonate.Below will the present invention is further illustrated by embodiment.
