A kind of preparation diphenylmethanediisocyanate method has been described in CN1850792A, to carry out heat scission reaction in ditan diamino-methyl formate and the carrier adding flask, with vacuum means separating by-products methyl alcohol, reaction solution obtains diphenylmethanediisocyanate and carrier, the carrier recycle after separating.The process transformation efficiency is near 100%, and selectivity is up to 93.8%.This invention has only realized carbamate intermittent fever cracked process, does not finish serialization.
A kind of preparation method who organic multiple-amino ester formate is resolved into organic multiple isocyanate and alcohol has been described in CN1406224A, it is characterized in that have or solvent-free situation under with organic multiple-amino ester formate heat fused, pure and mild at least a portion vulcabond that forms simultaneously when decompression is decomposed or isocyano unification carbamate, perhaps both remove during decomposing.This method especially is fit to the preparation aromatic polyisocyanate.Process productive rate 90% more than.This invention also belongs to intermittent fever cracked process, does not realize serialization.
JP02212465 adopts two-step approach to realize thermal decomposition process, and the first step is that by-product alcohol is removed in carbamate and solvent cracking under boiling state, and reaction soln forms film then, continues to finish pyrolysis.
US4547322 is dissolved in carbamate in the solvent and flows downward from reactor top, and fully contact with the upstream carrier vapor of another strand, the alcohols of by-product is brought to the reactor upper end, collects as vapour condensation with carrier, and reactor lower part obtains isocyanate solution.
Among the US5731458, the carbamate cracking generates corresponding isocyanate and alcohol, and this process is to carry out in the stripping section of a reactive distillation post, and control condition makes reaction away from rectifying column reboiler zone.Used high boiling solvent to play shock absorption.
The general boiling point of the employed solvent of foregoing invention is higher, and difficulty is bigger when separating with isocyanate products.
Summary of the invention
The present invention adopts 1,6-hexa-methylene diamino manthanoate Continuous Heat decomposition technique replaces traditional phosgene route one-step synthesis 1, the 6-hexamethylene diisocyanate, various problems such as raw material severe toxicity, seriously corroded, the process of having avoided the use phosgene to bring is dangerous, environmental pollution, it is simple to have flow process, and reaction efficiency height, mild condition, reaction times weak point, product are easy to separate and quality height, by product and characteristics such as solvent cycle use, process environment close friend.
The reaction process that the present invention relates to is as follows:
Figure S2007103062391D00021
Figure S2007103062391D00022
1,6-hexa-methylene carbamate pyrolysis is reversible reaction, is having under the situation of catalyst-free, the generation cracking of being heated of each carbamate groups respectively loses a part alcohols, and the carbon nitrogen-atoms forms two keys afterwards, obtain 1, the 6-hexamethylene diisocyanate.ROH in the reaction formula is easy to the alcohols under the cracking under reaction conditions, comprises methyl alcohol, trichlorine methyl alcohol, ethanol, trichloro-ethyl alcohol, phenol, the single replacement and polysubstituted halogenated phenol.Wherein methyl alcohol, ethanol, phenol etc. are specially adapted to the present invention.The generation that can the alcohol that generate in the reaction process in time separate isocyanic ester with reaction system has fundamental influence.
1,6-hexa-methylene carbamate pyrolysis at high temperature carries out usually, because isocyano has very high reactive behavior, significant thermo-sensitivity is especially at high temperature arranged, side reaction takes place easily, the inhibition side reaction of therefore must adopting an effective measure, use inert solvent diluting reaction raw material among the present invention, can reduce isocyano concentration, and promote the system thermally equivalent, prevent local temperature runaway.Simultaneously in conjunction with the lower inert solvent of another kind of boiling point as carrier, quicken to remove the alcohols that dereaction generates, improve transformation efficiency.
This reaction needs to carry out in inert solvent, and inert solvent is meant under reaction conditions can dissolve 1 well, 6-hexa-methylene diamino manthanoate, and not with 1, the interactional any solvent of 6-hexamethylene diisocyanate or alcohols.1 of pyrolysis generation, the 6-hexamethylene diisocyanate also can play the effect of reaction solvent.
For reducing inert solvent and the isolating technical difficulty of isocyanate products, need satisfying the boiling-point difference that as far as possible widens solvent and product under the situation of reaction conditions, so the boiling point of inert solvent is unsuitable too high.Spendable inert solvent comprises N, accelerine, N, N-Diethyl Aniline, N, the N-first and second basic aniline, N, dinethylformamide, N, N-N,N-DIMETHYLACETAMIDE, N, N-diethylformamide, N, N-diethyl acetamide, adjacent methyl chlorobenzene, PARA NITRO CHLOROBENZENE (PNCB), santochlor, diethyl phthalate, methyl phenyl ketone etc.Can select the mixture of a kind of solvent or two or more these kind solvents during use.
Can also use above-mentioned at least a solvent, and use in conjunction with the lower inert solvent of another kind of boiling point.The inert solvent that boiling point is lower gasifies than being easier under reaction conditions, and not with 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate or alcohols react, and can be used as vector gas physics and removes the alcohols that dereaction generates, and accelerates separation of by-products speed, improves transformation efficiency.
The inert solvent that this class boiling point is lower comprises benzene, toluene, 1,1-ethylene dichloride, tetracol phenixin, dme, methyl ethyl ether, ether, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) etc.
