Description

Metallocene catalyst, preparation method and application thereof, and selective hydrogenation method
The present invention relates to a metallocene catalyst and a preparation method thereof, and to a selective hydrogenation method of a conjugated diene-containing polymer using the catalyst.
There are many types of metallocene catalysts, such as titanocene catalysts, which are useful for olefin polymerization, isomerization, and hydrogenation of conjugated dienes and copolymers thereof. Documents which may be mentioned in the prior art relating to the preparation of metallocene catalysts herein are EP 0,601,953 a 1; GB 2,159,819 a; CN 1,163,275A; U.S. Pat. No. 4,501,857, etc. EP 0,601,953A 1 synthesizes compounds of the structure Cp2Ti(PhOR)2And Cp2TiR′2With Cp being a cyclopentadienyl group and Ph being a phenyl group OR1Is C1-C4R' is diphenyl methylene phosphino (-CH)2PPh2) For example, the catalyst biscyclopentadienylbis (4-methylphenoxy) titanium is prepared by adding Cp at-78 ℃ with 4-iodomethoxybenzene under argon protection2TiCl2The prepared bis-cyclopentadienyl bis (diphenyl methylene phosphino) titanium is prepared by reacting LiCH at-78 ℃ in an argon atmosphere2PPh2XTMEDA and CpTiCl2And reacting to obtain the product. Although the catalyst can effectively hydrogenate conjugated diene and the copolymer thereof, the preparation is complex, and the catalyst is particularly prepared at the temperature of minus 78 ℃, so the catalyst is limited in practical use. Preparation of GB 2,159,819AA catalyst of the structural formula prepared by reacting an alkyl-substituted bromobenzene:

wherein R is1,R2Are the same or different C1-C2Alkyl or alkoxy of, C6-C8Aryl, aryloxy, cycloalkyl, halogen, carbonyl and the like.
Metallocene catalysts have been widely used in the industrial fields of olefin polymerization, isomerization, and selective hydrogenation of unsaturated polymers since their advent. For example, the use of metallocene catalysts, such as titanocene catalysts, for carrying out selective hydrogenation of conjugated diene polymers is knownin the art. As found in USP 4,980,421; USP 4,501,857; CN 1,067,898A; US 5,132,372; EP 0,601,953 a 1; USP 4,673,714 and the like. The above patents have their respective characteristics, but have their disadvantages. For example, when USP 4,980,421 is used for hydrogenation of butadiene-styrene block copolymer, titanocene compound is used as main catalyst, at least one alkoxy lithium compound RO-Li (such as alkoxy lithium or phenoxy lithium) and at least one organic metal compound (such as organic aluminium, organic magnesium, organic zinc, etc.) are added simultaneously, Li/Ti is 0.5-20: 1, and the molar ratio of Ti to organic metal compound is 1: 0.5-20. EP 0601953A1 with Cp2Ti(PhOR1)2Or Cp2TiR′2As the main catalyst for hydrogenation, Cp is cyclopentadienyl, Ph is phenyl, OR1Is C1-C4R' is diphenyl methylene phosphino (-CH)2PPh2) Although the patent has less catalyst consumption (less than 0.2mmol/100g polymer), the patent has higher reaction temperature (90℃)) 2, 6-2 tert-butyl-4 methyl phenol is required to be added into the active polymer for deactivation, and the preparation process of the catalyst is complex (the preparation temperature is-78 ℃), so that the method has certain practical limitation. USP 4,673,714 uses a hydrogenation catalyst of (C)5H5)2Ti(R1R2R3-Ph)(R4R5R6Ph), the catalyst preparation of which is not very complicated and does not require additional addition of organic alkali metal or organic metal oxide, which is a technological advance, but the hydrogenation reaction temperature is high (-100 ℃) at a low catalyst dosage (0.1mmol/100g polymer), which easily causes crosslinking of the polymer and consumes a lot of energy. USP 4,501,875 emphasizes that the use of titanocene compound as main catalyst and the addition of lithium alkoxide as cocatalyst, the Li/Ti ratio is at least 1:1, but the catalyst dosage is larger (>0.2mmol/100g polymer) when high hydrogenation degree is required (>98%). CN 1,067,898A and CN 1,166,498A do not need to be added into polymer glue solutionThe original agent directly utilizes active Li which is not terminated in the polymerization process of the conjugated diene to reduce the titanocene catalyst, and then introduces substances with polarity or polar groups, such as alcohols, esters, carboxylic acids, aldehydes, aromatic compounds with two or more ester groups or hydroxyl functional groups, as a cocatalyst. The process is obviously complicated and not beneficial to industrial production
Therefore, the invention aims to provide a novel titanocene catalyst and a synthesis method thereof, and the structural formula of the catalyst is as follows:

The method is a hydrogenation method of conjugated diene polymer composed of aromatic hydrocarbon compound containing vinyl and conjugated diene containing 4-6 carbon atoms, which comprises terminating the newly generated active polymer in a solution system, such as a solution system using one or a mixture of two or more of cyclohexane, hexane, toluene and the like as a solvent with hydrogen, and then hydrogenating the terminated active polymer in the presence of metallocene catalyst, such as titanium catalyst, and is characterized in that: the selective hydrogenation is carried out in the presence of a metallocene catalyst having the structureUnder the conditions of (a):

Note: the amount of the hydrogenation catalyst used was 0.2mmol/100g of the polymer, the activity Li/Ti was 8.2, and the degree of hydrogenation of the conjugated diene was determined by iodometry measurement of the unsaturation degree before and after the hydrogenation in the polymer, which is the same as below.
The iodine value method (iodometry) used for analyzing the degree of hydrogenation of a polymer utilizes the addition of iodine bromide to double bonds, excess iodine bromide is reduced with potassium iodide to precipitate iodine, and back titration is carried out with sodium thiosulfate. The molar iodine value of the iodine added to 1kg of polymer is the unsaturation in the rubber. The reaction formula is as follows:

The calculation formula of the hydrogenation degree of the sample is as follows: H % = I o - I I o × 10 %
as can be seen from Table 1: the hydrogenation catalyst of the invention can effectively hydrogenate the styrene-conjugated diene copolymer. It can also be seen from table 1: 1. the activity of the cyclopentadienyl titanium catalyst with the substituent on the benzene ring is obviously higher than that of the cyclopentadienyl titanium catalyst without the substituent; 2. when the substituents on the benzene rings are the same, the larger the substituent on the cyclopentadienyl group is, the greater the steric hindrance is. In theory, the chance of the catalyst coming into contact with hydrogen is relatively reduced and the rate of formation of the catalytically active central TiH compound should be low. However, in fact, the activity of the catalyst is not reduced but improved, and the hydrogenation degree of the product is also improved, so that the substituent on the cyclopentadienyl stabilizes the active center of the catalyst, thereby improving the hydrogenation degree of the product. EXAMPLES 4 to 17
The living polymer dope was synthesized under the same conditions as in example 3.
200g of the obtained active polymer glue solution is transferred into a 0.5L hydrogenation reaction kettle under the condition of air isolation, the kettle is replaced by hydrogen in advance, the temperature is increased while stirring is carried out, and hydrogen bubbling is not stopped, the hydrogen flow is 0.8l/min, the pressure in the kettle is 1.5MPa, and the hydrogen bubbling is carried out for 1 hour at the temperature of 60 ℃. Adding a metallocene titanium catalyst solution prepared by using dry toluene in advance according to calculated amount at the temperature of 70 ℃, bubbling with hydrogen while stirring, keeping the kettle pressure at 1.5MPa in the reaction process, reacting for 2.0 hours, and sampling at regular intervals to analyze the hydrogenation degree of butadiene and benzene rings in the polymer. Table 2 shows the effect of different catalyst types, amounts and different Li/Ti ratios on the degree of hydrogenation.

*And in addition, n-butyl lithium is added into the glue solution, and the rest is not additionally added with the n-butyl lithium.
As can be seen from table 2: the styrene conjugated diene copolymer can be effectively hydrogenated by selecting the proper amount of the catalyst. Meanwhile, it can be seen that butyl lithium is additionally added into the active rubber, so that the hydrogenation of the polymer is not promoted, and even side effects are achieved. Therefore, butyl lithium can be added before hydrogenation reaction.

The living polymer dope was synthesized under the same conditions as in example 3. 200g of the obtained active polymer glue solution is transferred into a 0.5L hydrogenation reaction kettle under the condition of airisolation, the kettle is replaced by hydrogen in advance, the temperature is increased while stirring is carried out, and hydrogen bubbling is not stopped, the hydrogen flow is 0.8l/min, the pressure in the kettle is 1.5MPa, and the hydrogen bubbling is carried out for 1 hour at the temperature of 60 ℃. Adding a calculated amount of a titanocene catalyst solution prepared by using dry toluene in advance at a certain temperature, stirring and bubbling with hydrogen, maintaining the kettle pressure at a certain pressure in the reaction process, reacting for 2.0 hours, and sampling at certain intervals to analyze the hydrogenation degree of butadiene and benzene rings in the polymer. The effect of different reaction temperatures and pressures on the degree of hydrogenation for the various catalysts is shown in Table 3.

As can be seen from Table 3, the hydrogenation reaction is facilitated by properly increasing the temperature and pressure of the hydrogenation reaction. It can also be seen from Table 3 that when a biscyclopentadienyl-substituted titanium compound is used as the hydrogenation catalyst, the degree of hydrogenation of the conjugated diene portion of the polymer is less than that without the substituent in 1.0 hour at the same catalyst level. However, when the reaction time exceeds 1.0 hour, the hydrogenation degree of the product using the biscyclopentadienyl-substituted titanium compound as the catalyst is higher. Indicating that cyclohexyl and phenyl groups stabilize the catalyst activity.
