Abstract

A process for producing a (meth)acrylic ester which comprises feeding (meth)acrylic acid and an alcohol to a reactor, wherein a polymerization inhibitor is dissolved in the reaction mixture and the reaction is conducted while keeping the reaction mixture containing the polymerization inhibitor dissolved therein in contact with a member present in the gas-phase part of the reactor. Thus, the (meth)acrylic acid and the acrylic ester are prevented from polymerizing on the member present in the gas-phase part of the reactor, and a continuous operation can be conducted over long.

Description

The preparation method of (methyl) acrylate
Technical field
The present invention relates to the preparation method of (methyl) acrylate, (methyl) vinylformic acid means one or both in vinylformic acid and the methacrylic acid.
Background technology
As everyone knows, (methyl) acrylate is the high liquid of polymerizability, in order to prevent its polymerization, knownly makes it contain polymerizations such as quinhydrones, thiodiphenylamine to prevent agent (for example, the spy opens the 2000-355570 communique).
Yet, when supplying with (methyl) vinylformic acid and alcohol toward reactor and prepare (methyl) acrylate, make polymerization prevent that agent is dissolved in the reaction solution, in the parts of the top board reactor gas phase portions such as (manhole (マ Application ホ one Le)) of reactor, because the vapor generation condensation of (methyl) vinylformic acid and (methyl) acrylate, in this phlegma, carrying out polymerization, so, can not move continuously for a long time.
The present invention is in view of above-mentioned practical situation, purpose provides (methyl) vinylformic acid in a kind of parts that prevent to be present in reactor gas phase portion and the polymerization of (methyl) acrylate, (methyl) acrylate preparation method that can move continuously for a long time, improvement.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the cross sectional illustration figure of one of the preferred reactor that uses and attendant equipment thereof example among the present invention.
Summary of the invention
Main points of the present invention provide the preparation method of a kind of (methyl) acrylate, it is characterized in that, when past reactor supply (methyl) vinylformic acid and alcohol prepare (methyl) acrylate, make the polymerization prevent that agent is dissolved in the reaction solution, dissolved reaction solution that polymerization prevents agent and contact with the parts that are present in reactor gas phase portion on one side and react Yi Bian make.
Explain the present invention according to accompanying drawing below.
Basically with in the past known method is identical in the preparation of the present invention's (methyl) acrylate.
Acrylate by the present invention's preparation can be enumerated methyl acrylate, ethyl propenoate, propyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, 2-EHA, vinylformic acid 2-hydroxy methacrylate, vinylformic acid 2-hydroxy propyl ester, vinylformic acid methoxyl group ethyl ester etc.Methacrylic ester by the present invention's preparation can be enumerated the various methacrylic esters corresponding with the aforesaid propylene acid esters, for example, and methyl methacrylate, Jia Jibingxisuanyizhi, propyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate etc.
In the present invention, as raw alcohol, can use and the corresponding various alcohol of above-mentioned (methyl) acrylate.The reaction of (methyl) vinylformic acid and alcohol is carried out in the presence of an acidic catalyst usually, can use tosic acid etc. as an acidic catalyst.
Industrial, above-mentioned reaction can be carried out continuously.That is,, (methyl) acrylate and the water byproduct that generate are extracted out from reactor continuously (methyl) vinylformic acid and the continuous supply response device of alcohol.Alcohol is generally 0.5~2 to (methyl) acrylic acid supply mol ratio, and temperature of reaction is generally 80~100 ℃, and reaction pressure is generally 25~70kPa, and the reaction times (residence time) is generally 1~5 hour.
Prevent agent as polymerization, can use various phenolic compound, phenothiazine compounds, copper compound etc.As phenolic compound, can enumerate quinhydrones, methoxyl group quinhydrones, pyrogallol, catechol, Resorcinol etc., as phenothiazine compounds, can enumerate thiodiphenylamine, two-(α-Jia Jibianji) thiodiphenylamine, two-(α-Er Jiajibianji) thiodiphenylamine, 3,7-dioctyl thiodiphenylamine etc., as copper compound, can enumerate cupric chloride, neutralized verdigris, copper carbonate, vinylformic acid copper, cupric dimethyldithiocarbamate etc.
Polymerization prevents to use after agent is dissolved in appropriate solvent, as this solvent, for example, when being phenolic compound, can enumerate water, acetic acid, (methyl) vinylformic acid, (methyl) acrylate, aromatics, ketone compound, alcohol etc.Polymerization in the reaction solution prevents that agent concentration is generally 0.01~1.5 weight %.
In the present invention, preferably use stirring tank reactor shown in Figure 1.The structure that stirs tank reactor is, slightly is on the hemispheric cylinder 1 in two sides 11 agitator 2 is set.The pre-portion of cylinder 1 has the manhole 4 that is used to extract the vapour pipe 3 of water byproduct out and detects usefulness.In addition, in the inside of cylinder 1,, be divided into the seed cell of suitable capacity with dividing plate 5 according to reacting the required residence time.At this moment, the connecting tube 61 of the band valve (not shown) of each seed cell by being arranged on cylinder 1 outside is connected, and in each seed cell agitator 2 is set.
Raw material (methyl) vinylformic acid and alcohol are supplied with from the top of reactor one end by pump (not shown), and product (methyl) acrylate is extracted out from the bottom of the reactor the other end by pump 7.And water byproduct is extracted out from vapour pipe 3.
Feature of the present invention is, prevents that the reaction solution of agent from contacting with the parts that are present in reactor gas phase portion on one side and reacts Yi Bian dissolved polymerization.That is, in the present invention, by with containing the wetting parts that are present in reactor gas phase portion of reaction solution that polymerization prevents agent, prevent the polymerization of (methyl) acrylate etc. at the position that is stored in reactor gas phase portion.
As the parts that are present in reactor gas phase portion, under the situation of example shown in Figure 1, can enumerate the top board of manhole 4, cylinder 1 etc.Contact method to above-mentioned reaction solution and parts is not particularly limited, but is preferred with pump from the method for nozzle spray reaction solution.For example, the discharge side pipe road 62 (reaction solution is extracted out and used pipeline) that extracts the pump 7 that above-mentioned reaction solution uses links to each other with reaction solution service 63 arms, in the end of this reaction solution service nozzle 8 is set.In this case,, expose the gas phase portion of reactor as long as reaction solution service 63 is configured in from the position, space on bottom to the top of cylinder 1, because the pipe section that causes (methyl) acrylic ester polymerization is reduced, so be preferred.The kenel of nozzle 8 can suitably be selected, and for example, when 4 sprayings of the narrow and small manhole of area, adopts conical nozzle, and when the top board spraying of broad dividing plate 5 of area or cylinder 1, it is preferred adopting wide-angle fan type nozzle.
In the present invention, in order to remove the solids of accumulating in the reaction solution continuously, it is preferred that filter screen (ス ト レ one Na one) (9) is set at the middle part of reaction solution service (63).In example shown in Figure 1,2 filter screens (9) that can be used alternatingly are set.The sieve mesh of filter screen (9) usually more than 30 orders, preferred 60~100 orders.In addition, under meter (6f) and pressure warning unit (6p) are set at the middle part of reaction solution service (63), the reaction solution flow of controlling supplying-nozzle (8) whereby is preferred.The feed rate of reaction solution, if often in addition wetting the parts of reactor gas phase portion existence with reaction solution, and be not particularly limited, but usually more than 200L/Hr, preferably at 200~800L/Hr.
Optimum implementation of the present invention
Below, be described more specifically the present invention by embodiment, but main points of the present invention are not limited to these, are not subjected to the restriction of the following example.
