CONTINUOUS PROCEDURE TO PRODUCE AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS OF ALKALINE ACIDS OF ARILACTIC ACIDS
The invention relates to a continuous process for producing aqueous solutions of alkaline salts of ar-acetic acids. The alkali salts of arylacetic acids are important starting materials in the chemical industry. They are widely used for the synthesis of various pharmaceutical products. Therefore »in sodium or potassium lacetates are synthetic intermediates for the preparation of penicillin G. Also» these alkaline salts of arylacetic acids can be precursors for the synthesis of arylacetic acids and their esters used in particular for the preparation of pharmaceutical products »Dyes and fragrances. The presently described methods for obtaining alkaline salts of arylacetic acids consist in performing the alkaline hydrolysis of arylacete. This alkaline hydrolysis reaction is a slow reaction that requires efficient agitation means and prolonged heating which, due to the instability to heat the rings, is of a nature to lead to the formation of side products, which decreases the yields and leads to subsequent costly purification operations "that are prohibitive to an industrial process.The raw aqueous alkaline solutions as obtained above" ie the unpurified solutions "may be acidified to produce arylacetic acids which must then be purified by distillation or In order to shorten the induction period of the alkaline hydrolysis reaction, US Pat. No. 2,817,681 recommends using a light weight amount (preferably from 5% to 10% relative to the arylacetonitrile used) of the acid aric lac co ( or its salts) corresponding to the lacetoni r to be hydrolyzed. Then the addition of 5.4 wt.% of 3-methoxy-4-ethoxyphenoacetic acid relative to 3-methoxy-4-ethoxyphene 1 acetoni allows the reaction time to be reduced to about 2 hours. However, it is observed that it is necessary to purify and decolorize the acidified solution and that the relaxation of 3-methoxy-4-ethoxyphene lactic acid only increases from 75% -80% (without minor addition of arylacetic acid during the alkaline hydrolysis reaction). ) to 91% (without addition). It is also known that arylacetic acids can be prepared by direct acid hydrolysis of ary laceton tri. Sulfuric acid is generally used, but its use has many disadvantages. Little selectivity is observed, due to the presence of by-products resulting in particular from the sulfonization of the aromatic rings. Consequently »the relaxations are low and in addition there are effluents such as ammonium sulfate which is difficult to replace without further costly processing. The aqueous solutions of alkali salts of said arylacetic acids - obtained by acid hydrolysis of arylacetons - can be obtained by the neutralization of said arylacetic acids. However, this way of working is expensive since the preparation of said arylacetic acids by acid hydrolysis of ary lacetoni ri is a relatively non-selective and equally expensive operation. The Applicant has found a simple and continuous process that makes it possible, in a very short time, to obtain aqueous solutions of alkali salts of arylacetic acids by alkaline hydrolysis of arylactones, this process does not have all those disadvantages and »in addition» allows pure arylacetic acids are obtained by the simple aci ification of these solutions. Therefore the invention relates to a continuous process for the preparation of an aqueous solution of an alkaline salt of arkacetic acid of the formula:
(I) wherein R represents a straight or branched aliphatic hydrocarbon radical having a carbon number ranging from 1 to 10, a halogen atom such as chlorine or bromine, a straight or branched alkoxy group having a number of carbons which varies of the S »or a phenoxy group; M represents an alkali metal such as i \! A or K > n is a number that varies from 0 to 5 and x is a number that varies from 1 to 2 with n + x less than or equal to S »by alkaline hydrolysis of an ary 1 aceton of the formula:
R »n and x having the same meanings as in the formula ()» according to the reaction
(II) + XMOH - > > (I) + XÍ \ IH3;
said process being characterized in that it consists essentially of: a) placing in contact, in a mixing zone, an arylacetonium (II) with an aqueous solution of an alkaline hydroxide MOH in a molar ratio of MOH / (II) by at least equal to and preferably between 1.05x and l.20x »b) introduce the mixture obtained in a) to a reaction zone under a pressure less than or equal to atmospheric pressure» and preferably between 2 absolute bars and 12 absolute bars »and in maintaining said mixture in said reaction zone for a maximum period equal to 60 minutes "and preferably between 5 minutes and 30 minutes" at a temperature of between 100 ° C and lBO ° C "and preferably between 130 ° C and 160 ° CJ ) transferring the media obtained in b) to a separate zone, d) transferring the media obtained in c) to a distillation zone "e) optionally placing the solution obtained in d) in contact with a neutralizing agent that is preferably an arylacetic acid of formula
in a mixing zone »and then» f) recover an aqueous solution of alkali aryl acetate which can optionally be diluted with water. In accordance with this invention, the aqueous solution of alkali hydroxide of MOH and ary lacetonium (II) can be preheated to a temperature at least equal to 50 ° C, and preferably at a temperature of between 100 ° C and 130 ° C. ° C. Preferably, identical preheating temperatures will be used for the reagents, but, it will not constitute a part of the invention if preheating temperatures are used for the reagents. In accordance with this invention, the mixing technique used in step a) must be adequate to achieve
a deep mixture of the reagents. The contact time between the reagents is at most equal to 10 minutes and preferably varies from 0.01 seconds to 6 minutes. According to this invention, the weight concentration of MOH of the aqueous alkaline hydroxide solutions, LQ can vary on a wide scale. It is at least equal to 10%, and preferably between 20% and 60%. In general, common commercial solutions will be used. According to this invention, the reaction medium obtained in step b), which are in the form of an aqueous alkaline solution consisting of the alkali salt of an arylacetic acid and ammonia formed during the reaction, are introduced between an area separation in which most of the ammonia is removed. In this separation zone, the temperature and the pressure are preferably at most the same as in step b). The ammonia recovered advantageously can be substituted in the form of aqueous solutions. Alkaline aqueous solutions of alkaline salt
of lactic acid essentially released from its ammonia is introduced into a distillation zone in which the remaining ammonia is removed. The solution is advantageously distilled with superheated steam »air or an inert gas such as nitrogen. The solution leaving the zone of distillation of step d) is advantageously brought into contact "in a mixing zone" with an amount of an arylacetic acid of the formula
which is sufficient to neutralize any amount not consumed of alkaline hydroxide no. This will not constitute a departure from the context of the invention, but an inorganic acid such as HCl or H2O is used as a neutralizing agent. Then an aqueous solution of an alkaline salt of arkacetic acid is recovered which can be diluted to obtain an alkali arylacetate solution having a weight concentration of alkali arylacetate which is suitable for subsequent use to obtain a solution of an alkaline salt. of arylacetic acid that is totally soluble at room temperature. This procedure applies more particularly to the preparation of feni 1 acetates of sodium or potassium of feni laceton tr lo. The invention also relates to a plant for B
production of aqueous solutions of alkaline salts of ar-acetic acids. This plant »represented schematically in figure 1» consists of a chamber (1) containing a mixing means »provided with a supply of laceton (2) and a supply of aqueous solution of alkaline hydroxide (3), a pipeline (4) to introduce the mixture into a reactor (5) consisting of at least one vertical cylindrical drainage pipe (T), a pipe (6) to introduce the aqueous solution containing an alkali salt of arylacetic acid and ammonia in a chamber (7) containing gas / liquid separation means, a pipe (8) for introducing the degassed aqueous solution into a distillation column (9), a pipe (IO) for introducing the aqueous solution destined in a chamber (11). ) containing mixing media. Provided with a supply of neutralizing agent (12), a pipe (13) for introduction into a chamber (14) containing mixing means, provided with a supply (15) of water »a pipe (16) for introducing the solution of the alkali salt of arylacetic acid in a storage area (17), and ventilation pipes (18) and (19). According to this invention, the mixing means contained in the chamber (1) can consist of some device that allows the deep contact of the reactants to be obtained. In accordance with this invention, static mixers will be used more particularly. These mixers can consist of one or more different or identical mixing elements. These mixing elements may consist of folded sheets or a network of transverse and interleaved blades. Reagents are introduced (1) by supplies (2) and (3). These reagents can be preheated by means not shown in Figure 1. The mixture that comes out
(1) is transferred to the pipe (4) in the reactor (5), preferably towards its lower part. It will not constitute any part of the context of the invention if the tube (s) contains a volumetric packing such as Rasch rings, Pal rings, spheres or ordered packing. The number of tubes can vary in an amplitude or degree.
It is proportional to the desired product of the aqueous solutions of alkaline salt of arylacetic acid. The reactor (5) is accommodated with heating means, not shown in Figure 1, as a high pressure steam or heat transmitter fluid. When steam is used, it will not constitute a part of the context of the invention if this vapor is injected with the reagent mixture into the tube (s). To ensure the initial homogeneous heating of the tubes (T), said tube can be pre-filled with an aqueous solution of alkaline hydroxide or with an aqueous solution of an alkaline salt of arylacetic acid, or alternatively with water. The aqueous solution consisting essentially of ammonia and the alkali salt of arylacetic acid leaving the reactor 5 is transported via a pipe S to a gas / liquid separation zone consisting of a separator (7). ) which can be a large vacuum tank in which the ammonia gas is separated from the aqueous solution in particular by pressure reduction. The ammonia gas is evacuated from said separator by the ventilation pipe (18). The aqueous solution is transferred to the distillation means by a pipe (8). In accordance with this invention, the distillation means can consist in particular of Rasching rings »Pall rings or ordered packing» and on the basis of which a steam stream »air or an inert gas is injected. In the capital of said column »the gases that mainly consist of vapor» air or inert gas and in residual ammonia are extracted by the ventilation pipe (19). At the bottom of said column an alkaline aqueous solution of alkali salt of arylacetic acid salt is released which is transported by a pipe (10) to a first mixing zone (11) preferably consisting of static mixers as mentioned above. These mixers can be identical or different from those used in (1). This mixing zone (11) is supplied with an agent capable of neutralizing any excess alkalinity »by the supply line (12). According to this invention, the arylacetic acid corresponding to the hydrolyzed tri-hydrolyzate will preferably be used as a neutralizing agent The neutralized aqueous solution released (11) is transferred to a second mixing zone (14) via a pipe (13). This mixing zone (14) also preferably consists of static mixers as mentioned above and can be identical or different from those used in (1) and (ll) In accordance with this invention »the aqueous solution of the alkali salt of acid lactic acid is diluted with water in this mixing zone (14), the water being introduced by (15). The aqueous solution thus diluted is transferred to a storage area (17) through the pipe (16). According to a variant of the plant, the mixing means contained in the chamber (1) can be incorporated in the reactor (5). In this case, the mixing means can advantageously be placed in the lower part of said reactor (5) or directly in the pipe (s); these mixing means may consist of mixing elements such as those used in the static mixers as mentioned above. The process according to this invention makes it possible to obtain, with a high alkali salt relaxation of arylacetic acid and a virtually quantitative conversion of the corresponding arginine, pure, WH-S-free aqueous solutions. of alkaline salt of arylacetic acid. The process has the advantage of being made using a simple plant which, in particular, lacks a dynamic type agitation system whose nature causes leaks and is costly in terms of energy. The method according to this invention allows great flexibility. In addition, the ammonia formed can be directly substituted .10 in the form of commercially available ammonia solutions. Aqueous alkaline salt solutions of arylacetic acid can advantageously be precursors of arylacetic acids directly obtainable by acidification. The acids obtained do not require expensive purification means since the starting solutions are pure. The following examples illustrate the invention.
EXAMPLE 1 -. O A tubular reactor is used »formed of a stainless steel tube of 2.3 cm in diameter and 18 cm of lake and packed with Rasching rings leaving a work volume of 36 ml. The tube is surrounded by a cover allowing it
to be heated by oil circulation. The reactor filled with 26% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and placed under a nitrogen pressure of 5 bar is heated to 170 ° C. 0.25 mol / h (29.5 g / h) of fen 1 acetoni tri preheated to 100 ° C and 0.30 mol / h of IMaOH in the form of a 26% aqueous solution (46.1 g / h) also preheated to 100 ° C
