Description

Verfahren zur Darstellung von Hydrochinon. Zur Reduktion von Chinon zu Hydrochinon wird hauptsächlich schweflige Säure benutzt (Niet zki, Ann.215 [1883J, S.127), außerdem sind Hydroxylamin und Natriumhydrosulfit vor-,geschlagen. Die Reduktion mit diesen Mitteln verläuft nur dann befriedigend, wenn man höchstens bei Zimmertemperatur und in solcher Verdünnung arbeitet, daß sich kein Chinhydron abscheidet; aber selbst dann erhebt sich die Ausbeute nur wenig über 5o Prozent der Theorie (Nietzki). Chinhydron, das in Wasser nicht gelöst, sondern nur suspendiert ist, erweist sich als sehr widerstandsfähig gegen die bisher angewandten Reduktionsmittel, so daß man sie in großem U@berSChUSSe anwenden und lange einwirken lassen muß.Process for the preparation of hydroquinone. For the reduction of quinone Sulphurous acid is mainly used for hydroquinone (Niet zki, Ann. 215 [1883J, P.127), furthermore hydroxylamine and sodium hydrosulfite are suggested. The reduction with these means is only satisfactory if one is at most at room temperature and works in such a dilution that no quinhydrone is deposited; but yourself then the yield rises only a little over 50 percent of theory (Nietzki). Quinhydrone, which is not dissolved in water, but only suspended, proves to be very resistant against the reducing agents used so far, so that they are in large overruns apply and leave it on for a long time.

Es wurde nun gefunden, daß sich Chinhydron schnell und in vorzüglicher Ausbeute zu Hydrochinon reduzieren läßt, wenn man es in ein siedendes Gemisch aus Wasser, Ferrosalz und Erdalkalicarbonat einträgt.It has now been found that quinhydrone is quick and excellent The yield can be reduced to hydroquinone when it is poured into a boiling mixture Enters water, ferrous salt and alkaline earth carbonate.

Das ist überraschend, denn einerseits ist bekannt, daß sich Chinon, aus dem Chinhydron zur Hälfte besteht, beim Kochen mit Wasser, ja bereits beim Digerieren mit warmem Wasser teilweise zersetzt, anderseits ist bekannt, daß Ferrosalz und Erdalkalicarbonat in anderen Fällen (vgl. Patentschrift 66241 der Klasse z2) wohl die Nitrogruppe reduzieren, aber die Carbonylgruppe unversehrt lassen. Beispiel 1. In ein siedendes Gemisch aus 27,8 kg kristi lisiertem Ferrosulfat, 19,7 kg gefälltem Bartur carbonat und zoo 1 Wasser trägt man 111 Chinhydron nach und nach ein und erhält i Sieden, bis sich keine Kohlensäure mehr en wickelt. -Man saugt heiß ab und dampft d Filtrat im Vakuum zur Trockne ein. Die Au beute beträgt bis zu 1o,8 kg Hydrochinon.This is surprising, because on the one hand it is known that quinone, of which half of the quinhydrone consists, partially decomposes when boiled with water or even when digested with warm water, on the other hand it is known that ferrous salt and alkaline earth carbonate in other cases (see patent specification 66241 of class z2) reduce the nitro group, but leave the carbonyl group intact. Example 1. carbonate in a boiling mixture of 27.8 kg Kristi lisiertem ferrous sulfate, 19.7 kg precipitated Bartur and zoo 1 water carries one 11 1 quinhydrone gradually and no carbonic receives i boiling until more en wound. -Man sucks off hot and evaporates the filtrate to dryness in vacuo. The prey is up to 10.8 kg of hydroquinone.

Dieses Verfahren läßt sich bei der Reduktii von Chinon zu Hydrochinon vorteilhaft folgender Weise verwerten: Man reduzie Chinon zunächst wie üblich, jedoch nur bis etx zum Chinhydron, und vollendet dann die R duktion bei erhöhter Temperatur mit Ferrosa und Erdalkalicarbonat.This process can be used in the reduction of quinone to hydroquinone use advantageously in the following way: You reduce quinone first as usual, however only as far as the quinhydrone, and then completes the reduction at an elevated temperature with Ferrosa and alkaline earth carbonate.

Ein solches Verfahren erspart Zeit und R duktionsmittel und gibt bessere Ausbeuten e die bisher bekannten Verfahren. Beispiel 2. Man versetzt die bei der Oxydation von 9,3 Anilin erhaltene schwefelsaure Chinonlösu; mit 2,8 kg Eisenpulver oder soviel, als zur Ne tralisation der freien Säure erforderlich ist, rüh bis das Eisen im wesentlichen gelöst ist, in läßt das Gemisch in eine siedende Mischw aus 4. kg Eisenvitriol, zo kg Schlämmkrei, und 5o kg Wasser einlaufen, erhält im Siede bis die Xohlensäurcentwickhin g beendigt ist, und nutscht ab. Aus dem Filtrat isoliert man das Hydrochinon wie: üblich. Die Ausbeute beträgt etwa to kg Hydrochinon.Such a process saves time and resources and gives better results Yields e the previously known processes. Example 2. You move the Sulfuric acid quinone solution obtained by oxidation of 9.3 aniline; with 2.8 kg iron powder or as much as is required to neutralize the free acid, stir until the Iron is essentially dissolved, in lets the mixture into a boiling mix 4. kg of iron vitriol, zo kg of slurry, and 50 kg of water run in, obtained in the boil until the carbonic acid development has ended, and sucks off. Isolated from the filtrate one the hydroquinone like: usual. The yield is about to kg of hydroquinone.
