Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the yield of the titled compound useful as a general-purpose solvent of rubber, plastics, paint, etc., and an intermediate for organic chemicals,etc., economically without using a vapor-phase reaction, by using a specific catalyst in the liquid-phase reaction of a carboxylic acid in a solvent. CONSTITUTION:Zirconium oxide is used as the above catalyst. The catalyst is suspended in an organic solvent having high boiling point, and a carboxylic acid is subjected to a liquid-phase reaction in the suspension at 250-350 deg.C to obtain a ketone. A commercially available zirconium oxide powder can be used as the above catalyst, or zirconium hydroxide is calcined (at 400-700 deg.C) to obtain the above catalyst. The high-boiling organic solvent is the one having a boiling point of higher than that of the produced ketone, preferably a hydrocarbon having a boiling point of as high as >=250 deg.C, e.g. liquid paraffin, diethyldiphenyl, etc. The rate of feeding of the raw material is 0.05-1.0pt.wt./hr based on 1pt.wt. of the catalyst.

Conventionally, as a method for producing a corresponding ketone from a carboxylic acid, a method using calcium oxide, alumina, zirconium oxide, etc. as a catalyst in a gas phase catalytic reaction has been proposed. However, since these methods rely on gas-phase catalytic reactions, they require high temperatures and consume a lot of energy (and the equipment is not very versatile, making them indispensable in the current chemical industry where there is a lot of small-lot, high-mix production. Sushi is also not an industrially advantageous method.
