In a mode of the present invention, a component in this method charging can be C 1-C 3Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18).This method is particularly useful for alcohol, for example methyl alcohol, ethanol and n-propyl alcohol.Preferred alcohol is methyl alcohol.Can or be additional to pure pure reactive derivatives as pure surrogate and comprise ester and the C that this is pure 1-C 3The ether derivant of alcohol.Suitable reactive derivatives of methanol comprises ritalin and dme.Can also use the mixture of pure and mild its reactive derivatives, for example the mixture of methyl alcohol and ritalin.
When using alcohol as the charging of this method, product depends on the transformation efficiency that this is pure.If transformation efficiency is 100%, product is exactly a corresponding carboxylic acid.Therefore, when methyl alcohol was pure charging, this product comprised acetic acid.If transformation efficiency is less than 100%, then alcohol is converted into the mixture of corresponding carboxylic acid and carboxylicesters.If as the ester of charging is symmetrical ester, ritalin for example, then the primary product of this carbonylation method is corresponding carboxylic acid (being acetic acid in this example).If this ester is asymmetric, then product comprises the mixture of carboxylic acids from each alkyl formation of this ester.
In the other mode of the present invention, a component in this method charging comprises C 1-C 3Alkyl oxide, promptly have the compound of following formula:
R 1-O-R 2
Wherein, R 1And R 2Be C independently 1-C 3Alkyl.At R 1And R 2If the sum of carbon atom in the group is R 1And R 2Being alkyl, is 2-6.Preferred R 1And R 2Be straight chained alkyl, most preferably have the straight chained alkyl of 1-3 carbon atom respectively, for example methyl, ethyl and n-propyl.
If this ether is symmetrical ether, dme for example, then primary product is the corresponding alkyl ester of aliphatic carboxylic acid (being ritalin in this example).If ether is asymmetric, then product comprises these two kinds of possible carboxylicesterss one or both of, and this depends on that in reaction which is ruptured in two C-O keys.For example, if charging is methyl ethyl ether (R 1=methyl, R 2=ethyl), then product comprise vinyl acetic monomer and/methyl propionate.
Second component of this method is the charging that comprises carbon monoxide.This charging can comprise pure basically carbon monoxide (CO), for example, carbon monoxide is normally provided by the supplier of industrial gas, or this charging can comprise and can not hinder alkyl oxide to be converted into the impurity of required ester, for example hydrogen, nitrogen, helium, argon, methane and/or carbonic acid gas.For example, charging can comprise common utilization from synthetic gas via low temperature separation process and/or use film to remove the method for hydrogen and the carbon monoxide of commercialization preparation.
The carbon monoxide charging can comprise a large amount of hydrogen.For example, this charging can be known synthetic gas, promptly is used for any of a large amount of gaseous mixture of synthetic various organic or inorganic compound, especially ammonia synthesiss.Synthetic gas obtains by the carbonaceous material of richness and steam (in being called as the method for steam reformation) or with the reaction (method of partial oxidation) of steam and oxygen usually.These gases mainly comprise and contain carbon monoxide and hydrogen, can also comprise more a spot of carbonic acid gas and nitrogen.Carbon monoxide: the suitable molar ratio of hydrogen can be 1: 3-15: 1, for example 1: 1-10: 1.Use the ability of synthetic gas to provide another advantage, promptly select to utilize not have so expensive carbon monoxide charging than the method for preparing acetic acid from methyl alcohol.In the method for methyl alcohol-acetic acid, comprise hydrogen in the charging and may cause producing unwanted hydrogenation.
The catalyzer that uses in the inventive method is a zeolite, mordenite and ferrierite.Zeolite is natural or synthetic all is to have the microporosity crystal type alumino-silicate materials of being measured by X-ray diffraction that definite crystalline structure is arranged.The compound composition of zeolite can alter a great deal, but they are usually by SiO 2Form, wherein the part Siliciumatom can be by quadrivalent atom, as Ti or Ge, and triad, as Al, B, Ga, Fe, or bivalent atom, replace as Be or its combination.Zeolite by can with other channel system or for example the system in the interconnected duct, hole of side pocket or cage form.This channel system has uniform-dimension in specific zeolite inside, and can be three-dimensional, but not necessarily, also can be two dimension or one dimension.The channel system of zeolite arrives via 12 yuan of rings, 10 yuan of rings or 8 yuan of rings usually.The zeolite that uses among the present invention comprises the duct that at least one 8 yuan rings limit.Preferred zeolite is those zeolites that do not have side pocket or cage in zeolite structured inside.Atlas of Zeolite Framework Types (C.Baerlocher, W.M.Meier, D.H.Olson, the 5th edition, Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2001) together with based on the version of webpage ( Http:// www.iza-structure.org/ databases/) be about the topology of zeolite framework and the summary of CONSTRUCTED SPECIFICATION, comprise type that is present in ring structure in the zeolite and the duct size that is limited by each annular.For the purposes of the present invention, term " zeolite " also comprises the material with zeolite type structure, and for example layered porous crystal type oxide material and column layering oxide material are as ITQ-36.
The zeolite that uses in the inventive method has at least one 8 yuan of duct that ring limits by tetrahedral coordination atom (tetrahedron), and the minimum size that the window size of ring has is 2.5

Zeolite can obtain from commercial source.They can also be synthetic with known technology.Usually, synthetic zeolite is from comprising the aqueous reaction mixture preparation in suitable oxidizing thing source.In order to influence prepare zeolite, in reaction mixture, can also comprise organic directed agents with desired structure.After the component of reaction mixture suitably is mixed with each other, reaction mixture is placed suitable crystallization condition.After the complete crystallization of reaction mixture, can from remaining reaction mixture, reclaim crystallized product.This recovery can comprise filters this crystallization, calcination processing at high temperature after the washing.The synthetic of zeolite is described in a large amount of reference.For example, Y zeolite and the synthetic US 3,130 that is described in thereof, in 007, the ZSM-23 zeolite is described in US 4,076, and 842 and J.Phys.Chem.B, 109,652-661 (2005), Zones, S.I.Darton, R.J., Morris, R and Hwany are among the S-J; ECR-18 is described in Microporous Mesoporous Mat., and 28,233-239 (1999), Vaughan D.E.W.﹠amp; Strohmaier is among the K.G.; θ-1 zeolite is described in Nature, and 312,533-534 (1984) .Barri, S.A.I., Smith W.G., White, D and Young is among the D.; Mazzite is described in Microporous MesoporousMat., and 63,33-42 (2003), Martucci, A, Alberti, A, Guzmar-Castillo, M.D., Di Renzo, F and Fajula are among the F.; The L zeolite is described in Microporous Mesoporous Mat., and 76,81-99 (2004), Bhat, S.D., Niphadkair, P.S., Gaydharker, T.R., Awate, S.V., Belhekar, A.A.and Joshi among the P.N, also is described in J.Ind.Eng.Chem.Vol.10, No.4 (2004), 636-644, Ko Y.S is among the Ahn W.S, silicon potassium aluminium zeolite is described in Zeolites 255-264, and Vol.7 is among the 1987Howden M.G..
The zeolite catalyst that uses in the inventive method uses with the acid form, is commonly referred to ' H ' type zeolite, for example, the H-offretite.The zeolite of other form, for example NH 4The type zeolite can be converted into the H type, for example, and by at high temperature calcining NH 4Type.The acid zeolite has Bronsted acid (H +) position, it is distributed in the various channel system of zeolite.For example, the H of H-offretite +The position is arranged in 12 membered ring channels and 8 membered ring channels.Be arranged in the H of any special channel system +The quantity of material or concentration can be determined for example infrared, NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectrum technology by prior art.Come quantitative Bronsted acidity by FTIR and NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectrum, for example, be described in Makarova; M.A., Wilson, A.E., van Liemt, BJ., Mesters, C.de Winter, A.W., Williams, C.Journal of Catalysis 1997,172, (1) is in 170.This duct of two types in the H-offretite (being limited with 8 yuan of rings by 12 yuan of rings) can produce at least two keys that link to each other with the hydroxyl zone of H-offretite, one corresponding to the vibration in the bigger hole, another with lower frequency vibration in less hole.The inventor's work shows the H that is arranged in 8 membered ring channels +Have dependency between the quantity at position and the carbonylation speed, and do not observe this dependency for 12 membered ring channels.Have been found that the increase of carbonylation speed and H in 8 membered ring channels +The quantity at position parallels.Comparatively speaking, there are not evidence demonstration and the H in 12 membered ring channels +The dependency of the quantity at position.H in 8 membered ring channels +The quantity at position can be passed through for example Na of metallic cation +Or Co 2+Use known ion exchange technique to substitute H +Control.
The chemical constitution of zeolite can be expressed as and relate to following molar relationship:
SiO 2∶X 2O 3
Wherein X is a trivalent element, for example aluminium, boron, iron and/or gallium, preferably aluminium.The SiO of given zeolite 2: X 2O 3Ratio is normally variable.For example, can synthesize as everyone knows and have SiO 2: Al 2O 3Than for 6-90 or bigger offretite, Y zeolite, it is about 6 to have about 1-, the about 2-2000 of chabazite, and can synthesize and have SiO 2: Al 2O 3Sarcolite greater than 4.Common SiO 2: X 2O 3The upper limit of ratio is unconfined, for example the ZSM-5 zeolite.The SiO of the zeolite that the present invention uses 2: X 2O 3Mol ratio is at least 5, preferred 7-40, for example 10-30.Preferred SiO 2: X 2O 3Mol ratio is less than or equal to 100.For many zeolites, special SiO 2: X 2O 3Than obtaining (wherein X is Al), by utilizing the standard technique of high-temperature steam processing or pickling by dealuminzation.
Depend on feed properties, water can produce on the spot.For example, when alcohol is used as charging, utilize pure dimerization reaction to ether to generate water, the esterification that water also can pass through alcohol and carboxylic acid product produces.Water can be introduced separately into or introduce with alcohol or ester feed component or its mixture.Water can exist with liquid state or gasiform form.Method of the present invention is carried out under aqueous conditions, and charging is when being Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18) or aliphatic ester, and the product of carbonylation reaction is corresponding carboxylic acid and/or ester.For example, when charging is methyl alcohol or ritalin, reaction product be acetic acid and/ritalin.In charging is C 1-C 3During alkyl oxide, dme for example, carbonylation reaction preferably carries out under anhydrous condition.Under anhydrous basically condition, the carbonylation selectivity of dme generates the ritalin product.
This is reflected at when implementing under the anhydrous basically condition, and catalyzer and preferred feed component should be carried out drying before beginning operation, for example, and by being preheating to 400-500 ℃.
Usually, be ether in charging, for example during dme, this method is equal to or less than under about 250 ℃ in temperature carries out, that is and, temperature is about 250 ℃ of about 100-, about 180 ℃ of preferably about 150-.When charging is alcohol or ester, for example methyl alcohol or ritalin, this method is carried out under greater than 250 ℃ temperature, and promptly temperature is about 400 ℃ of about 250-, about 350 ℃ of preferably about 275-.
Usually total working pressure is the about 100bar of about 1bar-, and the pressure that preferably has a carbon monoxide is lower than 5bar greater than the pressure of 10bar and reactant.
This method can be continuously or batch operation, usually preferred operate continuously.Basically, this method is operated in gas phase, and the reactant that is introduced into can be liquid state or gasiform, and product is as gas recovery.As requested, reaction product can be cooled and condensation subsequently.Catalyzer can use with suitable form, also can be with fixed bed or fluidized-bed.In the operation of this method, unreacted starting raw material can reclaim and be recycled in the reactor.When product is ritalin, can reclaims also and can former state sell, or as requested, can be transported in other chemical process unit.If desired, all reaction product can be sent into conversion and other optional component of being used for ritalin or acetic acid in the chemical process unit and be converted into other useful product.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when product was ritalin, it can reclaim from reaction product and contact via hydrolysis reaction formation acetic acid with water.In addition, all products can pass through hydrolysing step, then and acetic acid separated.This hydrolysing step can carry out in the presence of acid catalyst, can adopt the mode of active distillation method known in the art.
After separation, any alcohol that obtains in reaction can be sent into and prepare ether in the dehydration reactor, and it can separate from water and be recycled in the carbonylation unit as the fresh feed of carbonylation reactor.
In another embodiment, in case when preparing a large amount of ester, then finish the hydrolysis of ester products to alcohol and carboxylic acid by on one or more points of catalyst bed, injecting water by carbonylation.Inject water with this mode and for example stopped dme basically, and eliminated the needs of the hydrolysis reactor that separates to this conversion of ritalin.
The following embodiment that provides is used to explain the present invention.Yet they have no intention to limit the scope of the invention.
