Description

The preparation method of 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol
Technical field
The present invention relates to the preparation method of 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol, this method has high propylene oxide transformation efficiency, and prepares 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol with high selectivity.
Background technology
1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol is identical with other glycol ethers, the resin solvent that can be used as coating, printing ink, also can be used as the dyeing coupler of brake solution (Block レ one キ oil), textiles, leathercraft, be to be different from the common useful industrial goods with marketability with solvent.
Common method as preparation 1-alkoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol, known preparation method is in the presence of catalyzer, make the method for alcohol and propylene oxide reaction, but often generate higher-boiling compounds such as 2-alkoxyl group-1 propyl alcohol and dipropylene glycol monoalky lether as by product.For example: when alcohol is methyl alcohol, with 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol and separation of by-products, in order to reduce content of by-products, distill sometimes, but 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol is close with 2-methoxyl group-1-propyl alcohol boiling point, both are difficult to separate fully.For example: in known 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol, be mixed with 2-methoxyl group-1-propyl alcohol of about 300ppm as the industrial goods use.Known 2-methoxyl group-1-propyl alcohol has very strong toxicity (genotoxicity etc.), and the content that reduces 2-methoxyl group-1-propyl alcohol in the industry use goods as far as possible is very important problem.
The spy opens in the clear 56-15229 communique (patent documentation 1), has put down in writing under the condition that tertiary amine exists, and alcohol is about more than 2 with respect to the mol ratio of propylene oxide, the method for low-grade monobasic alcohol and propylene oxide 1-alkoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol.
Among this preparation method, methyl alcohol and propylene oxide are reacted under the condition that tertiary amine exists, can make 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol.This method is separated 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol with by product (2-methoxyl group-higher-boiling compounds such as 1-propyl alcohol etc.), in order to reduce by product (particularly 2-methoxyl group-1-propyl alcohol) though content distill, but, be difficult to reach high efficiency separation by distillation as previously mentioned because 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol is close with 2-methoxyl group-1-propyl alcohol boiling point.Although can increase distillation efficiency by increase reflux ratio, increase distillation tower height, cost increases, and is impracticable.
Therefore, under distillation procedure condition commonly used, make 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol and by product high efficiency separation, other method is necessary.Method as other illustrates, and improves the transformation efficiency of propylene oxide and the selection rate of 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol, reduces content of by-products in advance, and it is effective that distillating method etc. are considered to.Patent documentation 1 record makes methyl alcohol and propylene oxide in reaction below 80 ℃, distills, and the transformation efficiency of propylene oxide is 93.2-98.8%, and selection rate that can 92.9-96.5% prepares 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol.
Preparing in the method for glycol ether of Te Kaiping 7-206744 communique (patent documentation 2) record by oxyalkylene and alcohol, under the condition that tertiary amine exists, methyl alcohol and propylene oxide can be that 97-100%, selection rate 94-95% prepare 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol with the transformation efficiency of propylene oxide 80 ℃, 100 ℃, 120 ℃ reactions.But, promptly use the method for the document, selection rate also is inadequate.
As mentioned above, 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol is as the widely used while of industrial goods, because 2-methoxyl group-1-propyl alcohol has very strong toxicity, therefore further reduce the content of by product (particularly 2-methoxyl group-1-propyl alcohol), it is very necessary in other words further improving the transformation efficiency of propylene oxide and the selection rate of 1-methoxyl group-2-propyl alcohol.
