Description
SPECIFICATION
Process for producing C4-Cro ethylene alcohols
The present invention relates to a process for producing C4-C10 ethylene alcohols. These alcohols comprise valuable intermediate products in organic synthesis and can be useful in the production of vitamins and cosmetics.
A process is known (cf. USSR Inventor's Certificate No. 311 887) for producing an ethylene alcohol, namely 2-butenediol-1,4, by hydrogenation of 2-butynediol-1,4 with hydrogen in an organic solvent medium in the presence of oxalic acid on a catalyst comprising a mixture of palladium black and black of a metal of the group of palladium (except platinum per se). In this process, wherein use is made of palladium black and ruthenium black, the process selectivity at a temperature of 20"C is equal, relative to 2-butenediol-1,4, to 96% at full conversion; the stereospecificity relative to cis-2-butenediol-1 4, is equal to 97%.
This prior art process has, however, the following disadvantages: (1) a pure starting alcohol and pure hydrogen must be used; (2) hydrogenation is conducted in an organic solvent medium in the presence of oxalic acid, thus adding to the production costs; (3) the mechanical strength of the catalyst in the form of a metal black is insufficient, as a result of which separation of the catalyst from the reaction mixture is hindered; (4) difficulties are encountered in regeneration of the catalyst after reduction of its activity.
Thermal treatment cannot be applied due to sintering of the black particles, as a result of which regeneration of the catalyst should be preferably effected by dissolution thereof to recover noble metals and subsequently prepare a fresh portion of the black. However, the regeneration scheme is labour-consuming.
In another known process (cf. German Patent No. 2 431 929; U.S. Patent No. 4 001 344;
British Patent No.1 504 187) 2-butenediol-1,4 is produced by hydrogenation, with hydrogen, of a technical product, namely a 30% aqueous solution of 2-butynediol-1,4, on a catalyst containing 0.05 to 2% weight of palladium, 0.05 to 1% by weight of zinc and cadmium supported by y-alumina at a temperature of from 60 to 75"C under a hydrogen pressure of from 1 to 1 6 atm. the yield of 2-butene-1,4-diol is 88 to 92.5% of the theoretical yield. The aboveindicated starting technical product is prepared by a conventional Reppe process using acetylene and an aqueous solution of formaldehyde in the presence of copper acetylenide.
A disadvantage of this known process for producing 2-butenediol-1 ,4 resides in the formation of resinuous products in an amount of from 7.5 to 12% by weight. Furthermore, other disadvantages are associated with a relatively low yield of the desired product, the necessity of separation thereof from the catalyst by filtration and accompanying losses of the noble metal (palladium), and difficulties of regeneration of the catalyst after reduction of its activity (the regeneration comprises the recovery of the noble metal from the spent catalyst and the preparation of a fresh portion of the catalyst). The obligatory stage of separation of the desired product from the catalyst and considerable labour-consumption in the regeneration stage complicate the process as a whole.
In a process disclosed in British Patent No. 888 999, acetylene alcohols in the form of commercial products, e.g. commercial 2,6-dimethylocten-2-in-7-ol-6 (dehydrolinalool) and commercial 2-methylbutyn-3-ol-2 (dimethylethylcarbinol) are selectively hydrogenated with hydrogen into corresponding ethylene alcohols under atmospheric pressure of hydrogen, optionally in a solvent medium, on a catalyst containing up to 20% by weight of palladium and 0.1 to 20% by weight of iead deposited on barium sulphate, calcium carbonate or barium carbonate, activated coal or magnesia at a temperature of from 10 to 75"C. The hydrogenation process is conducted discontinuously. Separation of the desired product from the catalyst is effected by the vacuum distillation method.The yield of 2,6-dimethyloctadien-2,7-ol-6 (linalool) is 90.5%, and that of 2methyl-buten-3-ol-2 (dimethylvinylcarbinol) is 97%, as calculated for the starting acetylene alcohol.
However, the discontinuous nature of the hydrogenation process and the use of vacuum distillation substantially increase the process duration. The vaccum distillation also necessitates the use of expensive process equipment and lowers the yield of the desired products.
It should be noted that the liquid phase hydrogenation of acetylene alcohols under continuous flow conditions on the catalysts employed in all the above-described prior art processes is impossible due to unavoidable high losses of noble metals of the catalyst. Furthermore, a common disadvantage of the above-mentioned prior art processes resides in the difficult regeneration of catalysts on carriers and catalysts in the form of noble metal blacks. Such regeneration involves dissolution of noble metals in a mixture of nitric acid, recovery of chlorides of noble metals and preparation of a fresh portion of the catalyst. All these operations take a long time and necessitate the use of sophisticated process equipment.
The present invention provides a process for producing C4-Cro ethylene alcohols of the formula:
wherein (a) R, is - CH20H, and R2 = R3 = - H, or (b) R, is - H, R2 is - CH3, and R3 is - CH3 or - C6H11, comprising effecting hydrogenation of acetylene alcohols of the formula:
wherein (a) R, is - CH2OH, and R2 = R3 = - H, or (b) R1 is - H, R2 is - CH3, and R3 is - CH or - C6H11, in the form of products in the liquid phase on a membrane catalyst made of an alloy comprising palladium and ruthenium in a weight ratio therebetween of 90-94::10-6 respectively, wherein hydrogenation of the said alcohols is effected by means of hydrogen diffusing through the membrane catalyst at a temperature of from 60 to 1 80 C and at atmospheric pressure of hydrogen.
The process according to the present invention has the following advantages over the prior art processes: (1) the use of a solid membrane catalyst comprising a structural element of a reactor eliminates losses of noble metals of the catalyst; (2) the use of a membrane catalyst of a palladium-ruthenium alloy makes it possible to hydrogenate commercial acetylene alcohols with higher yields of ethylere alcohols compared to the prior art processes, i.e. up to 99.2% of the theoretical yield; (3) the use of a membrane catalyst makes it possible to carry out hydrogenation of acetylene alcohols under conditions of continuous flow, thus intensifying the process as a whole in comparison with the prior art processes;; (4) production of ethylene alcohols is intensified due to elimination of vacuum distillation and filtration from the process scheme which in the prior art processes are used for the separation of the desired products from the catalyst; (5) regeneration of the membrane catalyst is effected in a substantially simpler manner than regeneration of catalysts supported on carriers or metal black catalysts; (6) the use of a membrane catalyst makes it possible to use non-purified technical hydrogen, since it becomes purified during its diffusion through the membrane catalyst.
The-membrane catalyst employed in the process according to the present invention comprises an alloy of 90-94% by weight of palladium with 6 to 10% by weight of ruthenium. At a content of ruthenium below 6% by weight, the alloy becomes brittle in the atmosphere of hydrogen. At a content of ruthenium of up to 10% by weight, its mechanical strength is increased Thus, the tensile strength is increased from 18.8 kgf/mm2 for pure palladium to 46 kgf/mm2 for an alloy with a content of ruthenium of 9.21% by weight. Alloys containing above 10% by weight of ruthenium have too low a permeability for hydrogen; thus, upon increasing the content of ruthenium in the alloy of from 10 to 12% by weight, the hydrogen permeability is halved.The highest hydrogen permeability in combination with a high mechanical strength and plasticity is inherent only in alloys containing ruthenium in an amount of from 6 to 10% by weight. Therefore, the use of palladium alloys with a content of ruthenium below 6% and above 10% by weight as hydrogen-permeable catalysts is undesirable.
The membrane catalyst utilized in the process according to the present invention preferably comprises a 20-100 pmthick foil of a thin-walled tube shaped as a helix with a wall thickness of from 50 to 200 ym, made of the alloy of the above-specified composition. At one side of the foil or outside the tube there is supplied the starting acetylene alcohol in the form of a technical product which is supplied either continuously or discontinuously, while along the other side of the foil or inside the tube pure or non-purified technical hydrogen is passed continuously; this hydrogen diffuses through the foil or tube wall towards the opposite surface to contact the compound to be hydrogenated.The hydrogenation process is carried out at a temperature of from 60 to 180"C under atmospheric pressure of hydrogen either discontinuously or continuously. The analysis of the catalyzate withdrawn from the reactor is effected by gas-liquid chromatography.
The starting materials, i.e. acetylene alcohols, are preferably used in the process according to the present invention as technical products. Such technical products are prepared in a conventional manner. Thus, a technical product comprising a 30-35% aqueous solution of 2butyndiol-1,4 is prepared by the Reppe method from acetylene and an aqueous solution of formaldehyde in the presence of copper acetylenide. Technical 2-methylbutyn-3-ol-2(dimethylethynylcarbinol) and 2, 6-dimethylocten-2.in-7-ol-6(dehydrolinalool) are prepared by known methods by ethynylation of acetone and 2-methylhepten-2-on-6 respectively. In the resulting commercial acetylene alcohols the content of the starting carbonyl compounds varies, as a rule, within the range of from 1.5 to 7% by weight.
It should be noted that the membrane catalyst made of an alloy comprising 90-94% by weight of palladium and 6 to 10% by weight of ruthenium retains its activity without regeneration under the process conditions during hydrogenation of 2-butynediol-1,4 for 30 hours, and during hydrogenation of technical dehydrolinalool for more that 400 hours.
Regeneration of the membrane catalyst is effected directly in a hydrogenation reactor (without discharge) of the catalyst) in a current of dry air at a temperature of 400"C for one hour, followed by treatment with hydrogen at the same temperature for one hour. After such regeneration the catalyst activity is fully restored. This regeneration method is not labourconsuming and comprises a simple process scheme.
The invention will be further described with reference to the following illustrative Examples.
Unless otherwise specified, all yields of the products in the Examples are expressed in per cent by weight.
