Aziridine is a kind of 3 Yuans cyclic cpdss with very gross distortion, and it has the reactivity of ring-opening reaction and amine simultaneously, and can be used as the intermediate of all cpds.Particularly aziridine is as the raw material of agricultural chemicals and medicine, and as the amine type polymkeric substance of yarn fabric treatment agent in industrial widespread use.
A kind of method of known production aziridine cpd is the method for typically producing aziridine, and this method is included in the liquid phase and handles monoethanolamine vitriol with concentrated alkali solution, and this method is already in industrial application.Yet, a lot of shortcomings are arranged in industrial this method.For example, need to use a large amount of sulphur bronsted lowry acids and bases bronsted lowries as auxiliary material, so productivity is low.In addition, generate the low inorganic salt byproduct of utility value.
Produce the shortcoming of aziridine in order to overcome this liquid phase, reported recently various in the vapour phase condition in the presence of catalyzer, need not use auxiliary material, method by alkanolamine molecule inner dewatering reaction direct production aziridine cpd (is seen U.S. Patent number 4301036,4289656,4337175 and 4477591 and European publication 227461,228898 and 230776).Yet these existing trials mainly are at the catalyzer at the molecule inner dewatering reaction of vapour phase, but do not propose a kind of commercial run that obtains required aziridine from the gaseous reaction product mixture.
Producing the process of aziridine cpd from alkanolamine by vapour phase processes, reaction product gas contains various by products, for example has the carbonyl compound of following logical formula III
Figure 88103932_IMG4
(Ⅲ)
The wherein as above definition of logical formula I of R, this compound is corresponding to raw material alkanolamine and various amine.If the raw material alkanolamine is monoethanolamine, monoisopropanolamine or 2-amino-1-butanols, the carbonyl compound of logical formula III is respectively acetaldehyde, acetone or methylethylketone accordingly.For example U.S. Patent number 4337175 and 4477591 is described, and during from monoethanolamine production aziridine, acetaldehyde is main byproduct, and also generates the byproduct of mono aminoethane and pyrazine class.Europe publication 227461,228898 and 230776 has also been described carbonyl compound and the various amine that main byproduct is logical formula III.
Industrial when producing organic compound by vapour phase processes, general embodiment be from the vapour-phase reaction product, reclaim required product and with its purification so that obtain the finished product.Yet industrial have following problem by vapour phase processes from alkanolamine production aziridine cpd.At first, the aziridine cpd of logical formula II generally has lower boiling and very high vapour pressure.And their reactive behavior of tool is very strong, is easy to carry out polymerization and other reactions.In addition, as the above-mentioned by product that vapour phase processes generated in, carbonyl compound tends to and the reaction of desired aziridine, generates adducts.Thereby the productive rate of desired aziridine descends.Therefore when producing aziridines compound, these problems must be properly settled with vapour phase processes.
The method that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of alkanolamine vapor phase production aziridine can reclaim aziridine cpd effectively from the vapour-phase reaction product.
The inventor once made extensive studies reaching this purpose, and find in the presence of a kind of amine compound, can very carry out effectively recycling step with (or) distilation steps.
Therefore, according to the invention provides the method for a kind of production by the aziridine cpd of following general formula representative,
(Ⅱ)
Wherein R represents hydrogen, or methyl or ethyl,
This method comprises a kind of alkanolamine with following general formula representative:
Figure 88103932_IMG6
(Ⅰ)
Wherein R such as above-mentioned definition, X is OH or NH 2, and
Y is NH when X is OH 2, when X is NH 2The time Y be OH, carry out intramolecular dehydration in the vapour phase condition with in the presence of a kind of catalyzer with reactions steps (A), contain the reaction product of this aziridine cpd with generation, and with this reaction product through any one treatment step of following (1) to (3),
(1) reaction product is delivered to recycling step (B), and in the presence of a kind of amine compound, reclaimed aziridine cpd, or
(2) reaction product is delivered to distilation steps (C), and in the presence of a kind of amine compound, distilled aziridine cpd, or
(3) reactant is delivered to recycling step (B), and in the presence of a kind of amine compound, is reclaimed aziridine cpd, again the aziridine cpd that reclaims is delivered to distilation steps (C), and in the presence of a kind of amine compound with its distillation.
In the presence of a kind of catalyzer, the alkanolamine that will lead to formula I in the vapour phase condition carries out the reactions steps (A) of intramolecular dehydration, existing describe and these are described similar method and also can be applicable among the present invention in the above-mentioned patent document of quoting.For example, alkanolamine is passed through catalyst layer.If when needing, available a kind of rare gas element such as nitrogen are diluted to suitable concentration with alkanolamine, or in order to suppress side reaction, can be with ammonia, water vapor, hydrogen etc. are added in the unstripped gas.Another way, also available ammonia replaces all rare gas elementes.Working pressure is normal pressure or decompression or pressurized conditions.Temperature of reaction is usually 300 to 500 ℃ of scopes.The space velocity of unstripped gas depends on the type of unstripped gas and the type of concentration and catalyzer etc., generally at 50 to 5000/ hours.Catalyst system therefor can be those catalyzer that above-mentioned citing document is mentioned.And with the catalyzer of the siliceous or phosphorus in European publication numbers 227461,228898 and 230776, mentioned for preferred.
Feature of the present invention is with in the step process of the formed reaction product of reactions steps (A) by above-mentioned (1), (2) or (3), to obtain aziridine cpd.When the present invention is characterized in from the reaction product that reactions steps (A) forms, to obtain aziridine cpd, recycling step (B) and (or) distilation steps (C) is to carry out in the presence of a kind of amine compound.Amine compound can suppress aziridine recycling step (B) and (or) polyreaction of distilation steps (C), and make it can stable existence.The carbonyl compound by product that problem is in reaction product and is contained can react with aziridine cpd, and recycling step (B) and (or) form adducts in the distilation steps (C).Yet when amine compound existed, the carbonyl compound by product was and this amine compound reaction, forms a kind of stable adducts, and can not react with aziridine cpd.This amine compound has produced following effect as a result:
(1) prevents that the aziridine cpd productive rate from descending.
(2), and can prevent that the aziridine cpd quality from reducing owing to the carbonyl compound with by-product contains.
(3) prevent that aziridine cpd stability from reducing.
In the present invention, there is the various kinds of amine compound can be used as foregoing amine compound.The primary amine compounds is effective especially because they can be immediately with reaction product in the reaction of by product carbonyl compound, generate stable Schiff bases.Secondary-amine compound is also effective, because their energy and carbonyl compound reaction generate stable adducts.The object lesson of amine compound comprises the alkanol primary amine with 2 to 6 carbon atoms, as monoethanolamine and monoisopropanolamine; Aliphatic primary amine with 2 to 8 carbon atoms is as ethamine and quadrol; Has the primary aromatic amine of seldom crossing 8 carbon atoms, as aniline; And have the alkanol secondary amine that is no more than 8 carbon atoms, as diethanolamine and diisopropanolamine (DIPA).Preferably the alkanolamine of this amine compound and raw material is identical, because it can together reclaim with unreacted raw material and circulate, makes process fairly simple like this.If with other amine compound, need to reclaim and re-use amine compound, must reclaim and re-use unreacted raw material independently like this.Make process complicated like this, and this amine compound might be used as impurity and comprise in the product.
(1) set by step will deliver to recycling step (B) in the reaction product that reactions steps (A) obtains, and reclaim the aziridine cpd of general formula (II) in the presence of this amine compound.If the reaction product that obtains from reactions steps (A), the amount of unreacted alkanol amine also enough works as this amine compound, then can be on demand simply with the reaction product condensation and with it recovery, thus finish recycling step (B).On the other hand, if the quantity not sufficient of unreacted alkanolamine itself is to play the time spent of doing of this amine compound, then will deliver to retrieving arrangement, and in the presence of the amine of q.s, will lead to the aziridine cpd recovery of formula II from the reaction product that reactions steps (A) obtains.Under latter event, way is to use an absorption tower easily, and by common mode amine compound is input in the tower as absorption liquid.
When the enough but recycling step of the quantity not sufficient of unreacted alkanol amine be by water as absorption liquid and do not add other amine compound, polymerization can take place in aziridine cpd.If with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution as absorption liquid to prevent polyreaction, then the by product carbonyl compound will react with aziridine, generates adducts, makes the productive rate decline of aziridine.
The consumption of amine compound depends on various factors in recycling step, as the composition of reaction product, and the kind of amine compound, the temperature of retrieving arrangement and structure.Preferred amine consumption is at least 0.1 mole for every mole of aziridine cpd of time per unit in reaction product, and every mole of its consumption of carbonyl compound is at least 1 mole.If the amount of amine very little, the stability of aziridine cpd will be low, and perhaps carbonyl compound can not reaction becomes a kind of adducts with amine compound fully, and the productive rate of aziridine cpd will descend.Can use the aqueous solution of amine compound as absorption liquid.If the viscosity ratio of this amine compound is higher, can be by amine compound be dissolved in the water, and the low viscosity solution that uses gained improves the effect that contacts of amine compound and reaction product as absorption liquid.Can suppress to have the volatility of more lower boiling amine compound by the mode of using the aqueous solution.Yet in absorption liquid, contain the reversed reaction that too many water can cause carbonyl compound and amine compound adducts, and carbonyl compound can not successfully be removed.Therefore, when amine compound is input into the absorption tower with aqueous solution form, though the concentration of amine compound in the absorption liquid that is input into can be according to reaction product in the content of water change, preferably be adjusted at least 30% volumetric molar concentration, particularly at least 80% volumetric molar concentration.Temperature by absorption liquid bulk absorption aziridine cpd can change according to the type of absorption liquid, but is suitable with 0 ℃ to 80 ℃.Working pressure can normal pressure or employing decompression or pressurization.Generally absorbing by an absorption tower is easily.The absorption tower can be a packing type, tower tray shape, and the multitube type, spray-type or wet wall type also can be the combinations of these types.
(2) or (3) set by step are that the reaction product that obtains from reactions steps (A) is delivered to distilation steps (C), and in the presence of the amine compound of capacity aziridine cpd are distilled.
To in recycling step (B), in the presence of amine compound, deliver to distilation steps (C) by the resulting liquid that contains aziridine cpd, in the presence of this amine compound, distill out aziridine cpd [step (3)].Another way will not sent recycling step of the present invention (B) to from the reaction product liquid that contains aziridine cpd that reactions steps (A) obtains, and can [step (2)] distill effectively in the presence of this amine compound according to the present invention.If the amine compound that the liquid of nitrogenous third acridine compound contains has enough amounts to produce effect as unreacted raw material alkanolamine, just need not resupply aminated compounds.Otherwise, need to resupply amine compound to Distallation systm, then aziridine cpd is distilled.Add distillation tower preferably with the liquid mixing of this amine compound and nitrogenous third acridine compound, and with mixture.Another way is that amine compound is added distillation tower in addition.Particularly when the liquid that contains aziridine that is input into distillation tower contained water, the amine compound preferably position more than the loading tray of distillation tower was added, and can avoid required aziridine cpd and by-product carbonyl compound to generate adducts so effectively.Adducts by this carbonyl compound and amine compound generate causes reversed reaction owing to there is water to exist near the loading tray position, thereby discharges this carbonyl compound, and rises by distillation tower as a kind of low boiling component.Owing to add amine compound in the above described manner, the amine compound of q.s is arranged, and water falls by distillation tower as high-boiling-point impurity more than loading tray, the result reduces in the amount of this place's water.Even therefore have the carbonyl compound of by-product to discharge, it changes into adducts with amine compound again immediately, so can carry out distilation steps under the situation of not losing aziridine basically.
The amount of amine compound can suitably be selected according to the amount of the type that is present in the compound in the Distallation systm and ratio, carbonyl compound etc. in the distillation tower.Preferably there is at least 0.05 mole amine compound in every mole of aziridine cpd in the Distallation systm to be input into; And every mole of carbonyl compound meter exists at least 1 mole, especially best 5 moles amine compound; And there is 1 mole amine compound at least in every mole of water.If with respect to aziridine, the amount of amine compound is very little the time, and it suppresses aziridine cpd polymeric ability is inadequate.On the other hand, if with respect to carbonyl compound or water, the amount of amine compound is very little the time, and it is insufficient that carbonyl compound and amine compound are transformed into the degree of adducts.The result might make the productive rate of aziridine reduce, and carbonyl compound will be comprised in the aziridine overhead product, or the stability of gained aziridine cpd is reduced.
Carry out when the operation repeated multiple times that will distill aziridine cpd, distilation steps of the present invention (C) can be applicable to any these distillation procedures.
Distillation can any routine method carry out in batches or continuously, distillation tower can be selected for use such as packing tower or tray column.Working pressure can be a normal pressure, or decompression or pressurization.Service temperature can be come suitably selected according to stability of type, carbonyl compound and the amino-complex adducts of aziridine cpd or the like.Preferably the tower top temperature of distillation tower is between 10 to 100 ℃.If temperature is too high, aziridine cpd can change into other compound.If temperature is too low, increase at the condensation cost of heat exchanger so that industrial be disadvantageous.Above-mentioned distillation can high yield obtain highly purified aziridine cpd.
The more convenient mode of implementing the inventive method is in reactions steps (A), with the alkanolamine of logical formula I not diluted and pass through catalyst layer in fact, make alkanolamine carry out intramolecular dehydration, carry out and be preferably under the reduced pressure of 10 to 500 mmhg in vapour phase.React after alkanolamine dilutes with diluent gas such as nitrogen, and when reclaiming reaction product with recycling step, expellant gas still contains required product and unreacted material, the productive rate of required product just might reduce.Need circulate expellant gas or its processing become non-poisonous material of equipment in addition.Otherwise, as the not dilution basically before reaction of initial alkanolamine, in recycling step, then can avoid the productive rate of required aziridine cpd to descend, large-scale exhaust gas disposal apparatus can omit or simplify.Reaction product can directly be delivered to distilation steps in the case, and can omit recycling step.Owing to there is not incondensible gas, distillation procedure is very smooth.Under latter event, preferably reaction product is cooled to the operational condition that is suitable for distillation tower by a water cooler with it, is input into distillation tower then.In distillation tower, it is fractionated into mainly cut of forming by aziridine and the distillation residue of forming by unreacted alkanolamine, water and other high-boiling-point impurity.If when needing, the principal constituent that obtains from the distillation cat head is that the cut of aziridine cpd can be purified by it is imported rectifying tower again, so that obtain the higher aziridine cpd of purity.To remove from the bottom of distillation tower by the mixture that water and other high-boiling-point impurity of unreacted start-of-chain alkanolamine, generation are formed simultaneously.If when needing, alkanolamine can be reclaimed so that re-use from mixture.Certainly, in order to make initial alkanolamine evaporation or increase activity of such catalysts smoothly, can add nitrogen in a small amount, ammonia etc.Run counter to because in reactions steps, there is no like this for above-mentioned purpose of the present invention.
Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 represent the schema of optimum implementation of the present invention.Referring now to these figure the present invention is described.
