Abstract
The parent patent (No. 166837) describes the production of tetramethyl silicate (I) by reaction of silicon, iron silicate, ferrosilicon or their mixtures with methanol in the presence of an alkaline catalyst (Na methylate) at temps. between 15 degrees C and the boiling pt. of the reaction mixture, pref. at normal pressures. - In the present process the catalyst used is the methylate of lithium, potassium, rubidium or caesium or their mixtures. These catalyst may be used in mixture with sodium methylate.
Description
Verfahren zur Herstellung von Orthokieselsäuretetramethylester Gegenstand des Hauptpatents ist ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Orthokieselsäuretetramethylester durch Umsetzung von Silicium, Eisensilicid, Ferrosilicium oder Gemischen derselben mit Methanol in Gegenwart eines alkalischen Katalysators, welches dadurch gekennzeich net ist, dass man als alkalischen Katalysator Natriumme- thylat verwendet, und die Umsetzung bei Temperaturen von etwa 15 C bis zum Siedepunkt des Reaktionsgemi sches und vorzugsweise bei Normaldruck ablaufen lässt.
In Abänderung des Verfahrens zur Herstellung von Orthokieselsäuretetramethylester gemäss dem Hauptpa tent wurde nun gefunden, dass man als alkalische Katalysatoren anstelle von Natriummethylat auch andere Alkalimethylate, insbesondere Lithium- und Kaliumme- thylat, einsetzen kann. Grundsätzlcih sind gemäss dieser Erfindung auch Rubidium- und Cäsiummethylat als Katalysatoren geeignet. Wegen der höheren Kosten für letztere sind jedoch die Li- und K-Verbindungen vorzu ziehen. Erfindungsgemäss werden also jeweils die Alkali methylate ausser Natriummethylat als Katalysatoren ein gesetzt. Sie lassen sich allerdings auch in Form von Mischungen derselben oder in Form von Mischungen mit Natriummethylat anwenden.
Die Versuchsbedingungen und Apparate für die Durchführung des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens sind ganz analog den Angaben im Hauptpatent.
Auch kann so verfahren werden, dass man vor der Reaktion anstelle von Lithium-, Kalium-, Rubidium- oder Cäsiummethylat solche Substanzen zusetzt, welche mit dem Methanol im Reaktionsgemisch vor oder wäh rend der Kieselsäureester-Bildung diese Methylate bil den.
<I>Beispiel 1</I> In einem 1-Liter-Rührwerksbehälter mit Rückfluss- kühler wurden 50 g eines feinkörnigen Ferrosiliciums mit 90 Gew.-% Silicium (Korndurchmesser 10 ) mit 1 kg einer 38%igen Kaliummethylat-Lösung in Methanol ver setzt. Die Prozentangabe bezieht sich auf die Lösung. Leichte Wasserstoffentwicklung setzte bereits bei Raum temperatur ein, die sich bei Aufheizung auf Rückflussde- stillation auf ca. 2001 H2/Stunde steigerte. Gegen Ende der Reaktion mussten insgesamt<B>195</B> Methanol nachge füllt werden, um ein Auskristallisieren des Methylates zu verhindern. Nach 2 Stunden war die Esterbildung prak tisch beendet. Das Ester-Methanol-Gemisch wurde abde stilliert und analysiert.
Die bei der Destillation anfallenden 850 g Flüssigkeit enthielten 27 Gew.-% Orthokieselsäuretetramethylester. Die Ausbeute an Orthokieselsäuretetrametylester in Be zug auf das zu 95% umgesetzte Silicium betrug 1000/o, die Gesamtausbeute in Bezug auf Si somit 95%.
<I>Beispiel 2</I> Es wurde verfahren wie in Beispiel 1, nur dass eine 11%ige Lithiummethylat-Lösung eingesetzt wurde. Die HZ-Entwicklung betrug durchschnittlich 101/h und war nach 8 Stunden Laufzeit nahezu beendet. Gegen Ende der Reaktion mussten 195 g Methanol zugegeben werden, um ein Auskristallisieren von Lithiummethylat zu verhin dern. 926 g eines Ester-Methanol-Gemisches, das 25% Orthokieselsäuretetramethylester enthielt, wurden abge zogen. Die Gesamtausbeute betrug 95%.
Process for the production of tetramethyl orthosilicate The subject of the main patent is a process for the production of tetramethyl orthosilicate by reacting silicon, iron silicide, ferrosilicon or mixtures thereof with methanol in the presence of an alkaline catalyst, which is characterized in that sodium methylate is used as the alkaline catalyst, and the reaction can be carried out at temperatures from about 15 ° C. to the boiling point of the reaction mixture and preferably at normal pressure.
In a modification of the process for the preparation of tetramethyl orthosilicates according to the main patent, it has now been found that other alkali methylates, in particular lithium and potassium methylate, can also be used as alkaline catalysts instead of sodium methylate. In principle, rubidium and cesium methylate are also suitable as catalysts according to this invention. However, because of the higher cost of the latter, the Li and K connections are preferable. According to the invention, the alkali methylates are used as catalysts in addition to sodium methylate. However, they can also be used in the form of mixtures thereof or in the form of mixtures with sodium methylate.
The experimental conditions and apparatus for carrying out the process according to the invention are entirely analogous to the information in the main patent.
It is also possible to proceed in such a way that, before the reaction, instead of lithium, potassium, rubidium or cesium methylate, substances are added which form these methylates with the methanol in the reaction mixture before or during the silicic acid ester formation.
<I> Example 1 </I> In a 1 liter agitator vessel with a reflux condenser, 50 g of a fine-grain ferrosilicon with 90% by weight silicon (grain diameter 10) were mixed with 1 kg of a 38% potassium methylate solution in methanol puts. The percentage refers to the solution. A slight evolution of hydrogen began at room temperature, which increased to approx. 2001 H2 / hour when heated to reflux distillation. Towards the end of the reaction, a total of <B> 195 </B> methanol had to be refilled in order to prevent the methylate from crystallizing out. After 2 hours the ester formation was practically complete. The ester-methanol mixture was distilled off and analyzed.
The 850 g of liquid obtained in the distillation contained 27% by weight of tetramethyl orthosilicate. The yield of tetramethyl orthosilicate in relation to the 95% converted silicon was 1000 / o, and the overall yield in relation to Si was thus 95%.
<I> Example 2 </I> The procedure was as in Example 1, except that an 11% strength lithium methylate solution was used. The HZ development averaged 101 / h and was almost complete after 8 hours of running. Towards the end of the reaction, 195 g of methanol had to be added in order to prevent lithium methylate from crystallizing out. 926 g of an ester-methanol mixture containing 25% tetramethyl orthosilicate were withdrawn. The overall yield was 95%.
