The present invention relates to the production of 1,3-dichloroacetone. In particular, the present invention provides an excellent method for producing 1,3-dichloroacetone in high yield and high selectivity by oxidizing 1,3-dichloropropan-2-ol using continuously regenerated ruthenium tetroxide. It concerns a new method. Since 1,3-dichloroacetone has chlorine substituents at the 1 and 3 positions, it has high chemical reactivity and is particularly useful as a synthetic intermediate for fine chemicals. This is useful as a synthetic intermediate for pharmaceuticals and agricultural chemicals such as insecticides. As a method for synthesizing 1,3-dichloroacetone,
Oxidation of 1,3-dichloropropan-2-ol with chromic acid (Chem. Ber., 4 , 562) is known, but this method generates a large amount of waste containing chromium and poses pollution problems. There is. The method of chlorinating acetone (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 54-130511) uses a large amount of dangerous chlorine gas.
1,1-dichloroacetone and the like are produced as by-products, and the selectivity is not very high. By the way, ruthenium tetroxide is often used as an oxidizing agent for secondary alcohols to ketones. The oxidation reaction using ruthenium tetroxide is performed using a stoichiometric amount of ruthenium tetroxide (J.Am.
Chem.Soc., 80 , 6682 (1958)), method using a catalytic amount of a ruthenium compound in the presence of an oxidizing agent 1) J.
Chem.Soc., D.1970, 1420; 2) USP.3997578)
There is. In the latter method, there is an example (J.Chem.Soc., D.1970, 1420) in which an inexpensive and relatively easy-to-handle sodium hypochlorite aqueous solution is used as an oxidizing agent. This method has been used to synthesize cyclohexanone, oxidize sugars, etc., but to date, no example has been reported in which 1,3-dichloroacetone was synthesized by oxidizing 1,3-dichloropropan-2-ol. When this method was applied to the synthesis of dichloroacetone, the reaction rate and selectivity were low, and it was difficult to isolate the product. The present inventors have discovered that 1,3-dichloropropane-2
As a result of intensive efforts to develop a method to efficiently produce the corresponding 1,3-dichloroacetone by oxidizing -ol, a system using a ruthenium compound as a catalyst and hypochlorite as an oxidizing agent was developed. reaction system
The present inventors have discovered a method for producing the desired 1,3-dichloroacetone in high yield and high selectivity by adjusting the pH, and have completed the present invention. Dichloroacetone exists in a solution in an equilibrium state of cate type and enol type as shown by formula (1). Under the reaction conditions of the present invention, when 1,3-dichloroacetone becomes an enol form, it reacts with hypochlorite ions present in the reaction system, and trichloroacetone shown in formula (2) is produced as a by-product. As the pH of a solution containing 1,3-dichloroacetone increases, the proportion of enol forms increases. Under the reaction conditions of the present invention, as the pH of the reaction system increases, more trichloroacetone is produced as a by-product.
Selectivity drops rapidly. That is, in the present invention, the pH of the reaction system is an important factor, and the pH of the reaction system is in the range of 1 to 4, preferably 1 to 2. As the ruthenium compound used in the present invention, ruthenium metal or its oxide, various ruthenium salts, and complexes thereof can be used. Examples of ruthenium compounds include: ruthenium metal; oxides such as ruthenium dioxide and ruthenium tetroxide; salts such as ruthenium chloride, ruthenium bromide, and ruthenium sulfate; ruthenium hydroxide; ruthenium dodecacarbonyl, dichlorotris (triphenylphosphine); ) Examples include complexes such as ruthenium. The amount of these compounds used as a catalyst is generally in the range of 0.0001 to 1 mol, preferably 0.0005 to 0.1 mol, per 1 mol of the reaction substrate. Although the present invention can be carried out in a heterogeneous water-reactive substrate system, it is generally carried out in a heterogeneous mixed solution of an organic solvent and water. Any solvent that is stable against oxidation of ruthenium tetroxide and that dissolves it can be used as the organic solvent. Specifically, halogenated hydrocarbons such as carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, methylene chloride, and dichloroethane; aliphatic or alicyclic hydrocarbons such as pentane, hexane, and cyclohexane; and ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, and methyl isobutyl ketone. ; Examples include esters such as methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, and methyl propionate. The reaction temperature should be 50℃ or less, but
Preferably, the temperature is 30°C or lower. Next, the method of the present invention will be specifically explained using examples. Example 1 1,3-dichloropropan-2-ol (92.9 g, 0.72 mol), ruthenium dioxide (0.55 g, 0.0033 mol, 0.45 mol % based on alcohol), and ethyl acetate (170 g) were placed in a glass reactor. ) and water (180g). A 12% aqueous sodium hypochlorite solution (492 g, 1.1 equivalents) was added dropwise while stirring. During the dropwise addition, the reaction temperature is adjusted to 20-30°C, and the pH of the aqueous layer of the reaction system is adjusted to 1-2. After dropping, 20-30℃
It was aged for 1 hour. After the reaction was completed, the ethyl acetate layer and the aqueous layer were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted twice with ethyl acetate. By adding the extract to the ethyl acetate layer, concentrating and distilling it, 1,3-dichloroacetone 87.8

Yield: 96.0% Example 2 The same reaction as in Example 1 was carried out except that the reaction temperature was -5 to 0°C instead of the reaction temperature of 20 to 30°C used in Example 1. Yield: 87.1 g, yield: 95.2% Examples 3 to 6 The same reaction as in Example 1 was carried out, except that the ruthenium compounds shown in Table 1 were used instead of the ruthenium dioxide used in Example 1.
