It is known that NDCA is produced by air oxidation of 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene in an acetic acid solvent in the presence of a cobalt, manganese and bromine compound catalyst. However, the crude NDCA obtained by the oxidation reaction contains a trace amount of heavy metals, a coloring substance with an unknown structure, a bromine derivative, a reaction intermediate, and the like. Therefore, if the crude NDCA is used as a raw material, it can be obtained. Poor performance and coloration of the polymer appear. Therefore, there have been many NDCs as described below.
A purification method has been proposed. (1) Dissolve crude NDCA in an aqueous alkaline solution,
The mixture is stirred at 250 ° C. for 1 to 5 hours for heat treatment, then decolorized with a solid adsorbent, and then acid gas such as carbon dioxide or sulfurous acid is pressure-treated to lower the pH.

The above-mentioned methods (1) to (4) are used for the crude NDCA.
If the pH or the temperature of the alkaline aqueous solution in which the is dissolved is not strictly adjusted, there is a problem in that the amount and composition of the monoalkali salt of NDCA to be precipitated will not be constant. The above method (5) includes a salt used for salting out and a salt formed by acid precipitation of an alkali salt, and since the total amount of these salts is very large, a purification method on an industrial scale. As a result, it lacked practicality. Since the method (6) uses a large amount of an expensive solvent for recrystallization, there are problems such as an increase in cost due to the recovery loss thereof and the purity of the obtained NDCA is not sufficiently high.

[Detailed Description of the Invention] 1. Oxidation Reaction The crude NDCA used in the present invention is obtained by oxidizing 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene with molecular oxygen. As 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene, 2,6
-Dimethylnaphthalene, 2,6-diisopropylnaphthalene and the like can be mentioned, and their oxidation intermediates can also be used. The conditions of the oxidation reaction are not particularly limited, but for example, NDCA can be obtained under the following reaction conditions. Cobalt and manganese are 0.5 to 5 as a catalyst to 1 mol of the raw material dialkylnaphthalene.
About 0 mol% is used. The ratio of cobalt to manganese is in the range of 1:99 to 99: 1. The bromine compound is suitable in an amount of 1 to 10 mol with respect to 1 mol of cobalt. Acetic acid or propionic acid is used as the solvent, and the amount thereof is 2 to 50 times by weight that of the raw material. Reaction temperature is 80
To 250 ° C, preferably 100 to 200 ° C, and the reaction time is usually in the range of 1 to 10 hours. Considering the reaction rate, the reaction pressure is preferably such a pressure that the oxygen partial pressure in the gas phase is constantly 0.2 to 40 kg / cm 2 in absolute pressure. As molecular oxygen, in addition to pure oxygen, oxygen is nitrogen,
It is also possible to use those diluted to an arbitrary concentration with an inert gas such as helium or argon. The reaction may be either a batch system or a semi-continuous system, but in general, a semi-continuous system having a large yield per catalyst is advantageous. After the completion of the reaction, the produced crude NDCA is in the form of a solvent slurry, so it is filtered, collected, washed with water or an acid, washed with water and dried.

2. Formation of dialkali salt Crude NDCA is added to an aqueous solution in which more than the neutralization equivalent of alkali is dissolved and dissolved under heating or stirring at room temperature to form a solution of crude NDCA dialkali salt. Examples of the alkali used at that time include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, ammonia and the like. The amount of alkali used is N
The amount is in the range of 1 to 2 equivalents with respect to DCA, but it is usually preferable to use about 1.01 to 1.50 equivalents so that the alkali is in a small excess. Alkali is used as an aqueous solution, and its concentration is usually 0.2 to 10% by weight,
In the case of ammonium salts, it is preferable to use a lower concentration than sodium or potassium salts. If the alkali concentration is too high, the NDCA dialkali salt will not dissolve and the purification efficiency will decrease, while if the concentration is too low, the amount of acetone used for precipitation of the dialkali salt will increase,
The recovery rate of NDCA decreases. The formation of dialkali salt
It may be carried out in air, but is preferably carried out in an inert gas such as nitrogen. The temperature for forming the dialkali salt may be room temperature, but it is generally under heating, for example, 4
It is preferable to carry out at a temperature of 0 to 100 ° C. This is because the solubility of the dialkali salt is improved and the efficiency of the reaction vessel is increased, and the recovery rates of a small amount of cobalt and manganese contained in the crude NDCA are improved. This heating is usually carried out for 0.5 to 5 hours, and the obtained aqueous solution of dialkali salt is subjected to crystallization operation after insoluble matter is removed by filtration.

3. Crystallization of dialkali salt By adding acetone to the aqueous solution of the NDCA dialkali salt obtained as described above, the dialkali salt is crystallized. Acetone can also be added while the aqueous solution is heated or cooled. Acetone is intermittently or continuously added to the aqueous solution little by little with stirring to precipitate white NDCA dialkali salt crystals.
The amount of acetone used varies depending on the concentration of the dialkali salt solution in water and cannot be generally stated. However, when the concentration is low, it may be high, and when the concentration is high, it may be low. Generally speaking, acetone has a pH of 0.02 relative to the amount of water present in the aqueous solution.
It is used in a range of about 5 to 5 times by weight. If you want to increase the recovery rate of NDCA, add an aqueous solution at 5 ° C after adding acetone.
It is preferable to cool to a certain degree. The precipitated NDCA dialkali salt is filtered off, washed with saturated saline and / or acetone, and dried. Acetone is easily recovered from the filtrate by distillation and can be reused, and a trace amount of unrecovered NDCA dialkali salt in the filtrate is added with acid to produce NDCA.

4. Activated carbon treatment The dialkali salt obtained above can be directly subjected to the acid precipitation operation described below, but in order to obtain a higher purity NDCA, it is preferable to perform activated carbon treatment. The activated carbon treatment may be carried out by dissolving the dialkali salt in water and using a flow system or a batch system. For example, in the case of the flow type, granular activated carbon is packed in a column, and the NDCA dialkali salt aqueous solution is passed through the flow in an up flow or a down flow. The temperature at that time is about room temperature to 60 ° C., and the liquid flow rate is 0.1 to 1
0.0 is suitable. On the other hand, in the case of the batch system, powdered activated carbon is added in an amount of about 1 to 10% by weight with respect to the dialkali salt, and the mixture is treated under stirring for 1 to 5 hours. The activated carbon used is not particularly limited, and any kind of activated carbon can be used.

5. Acid precipitation operation NDC obtained by the above crystallization operation or activated carbon treatment
For the dialkali salt A, acid is added to its aqueous solution to adjust the pH to 2
It is adjusted to the vicinity and converted to NDCA. At that time, the concentration of the dialkali salt is preferably maintained in the range of 0.5 to 30% by weight. When the concentration exceeds this range, the precipitated N
Since DCA forms a high-viscosity slurry, it becomes difficult to perform operations such as stirring, while if the concentration is too low, the operation efficiency becomes poor. However, since NDCA is insoluble in water, NDCA
There is no effect on the recovery of. As the acid used for acid precipitation,
Usually, it is sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid or the like, and those diluted with water are used. Also, an acid gas such as carbon dioxide gas can be used. The generated NDCA is filtered, washed thoroughly, and dried.
