Further, its simple process enables mass production and lowers purification equipment cost.

Description

The preparation method of N-Methyl pyrrolidone
Technical field
The present invention relates to the preparation method of N-Methyl pyrrolidone, relate more specifically to the preparation method of high purity and high yield N-Methyl pyrrolidone, described method is to use the continuous two-step approach of containing metal oxide as the solid catalyst of active ingredient, wherein two-step reaction can carry out and continuously without the reaction product gamma-butyrolactone of the purifying the first step, and be easy to separate and purifying because reacting rear reactionless intermediate product gamma-butyrolactone residue, and can prepare in a large number N-Methyl pyrrolidone because of its simple method, described intermediate product gamma-butyrolactone is difficult to Fen Li because of its boiling point very little with end product N-Methyl pyrrolidone difference (approximately 2 ℃).
Background technology
At polymerization and solvent, coating preparation solvent for processing, metallic surface stain remover, medicine synthetic and purifying for solvent, semi-conductor and electronic material processing solvent, lithium cell prepare with fields such as solvents, because the concern of environmentally friendly technique increases, the demand of the nontoxic N-Methyl pyrrolidone of former environment is increased.
N-Methyl pyrrolidone is standby at the industrial Dehydration by MMA and gamma-butyrolactone, and its preparation method method being used the method for catalyzer and do not use catalyzer by being roughly divided into.
As the method for not using catalyzer, disclose by gamma-butyrolactone and MMA are reacted to the method (J.Amer.Chem.Soc., 71 (1949) 896) of preparing the N-Methyl pyrrolidone of 90~93% productive rates for 4 hours at 280 ℃ in batch reactor.In addition, Japanese Patent Publication discloses for No. 1-190667 by gamma-butyrolactone, water and MMA are added to autoclave, and they are reacted to the method for preparing the N-Methyl pyrrolidone of 94.3% productive rate for 3 hours under 240~265 ℃ and 50atm pressure.
As the method for using catalyzer, disclose by by gamma-butyrolactone and MMA under 280 ℃ and normal atmosphere, and the y-type zeolite catalyzer of Copper Ion Exchange exists lower successive reaction to prepare the method (Bull.Chem.Soc.Japan, 50 (10) (1977) 2517) of the N-Methyl pyrrolidone of 98% productive rate.In addition, method (J.Org.Chem., 50 (1994) 3998) by gamma-butyrolactone and MMA are prepared with the ZSM-5 zeolite catalyzer of chromium ion exchange to the N-Methyl pyrrolidone of 98.2% productive rate 300 ℃ of successive reactions is disclosed.In addition, Japanese Patent Publication discloses the method for catalyzer such as aluminum oxide, silica-alumina, activated carbon, silica gel, silicon oxide-magnesium oxide, gamma-butyrolactone and MMA being reacted to the N-Methyl pyrrolidone of preparing 63~93% productive rates by using clear No. 49-20582.
But these methods have defect, as low in productive rate, and still remain unreacted reactant with the gamma-butyrolactone of product N-Methyl pyrrolidone boiling-point difference little (approximately 2 ℃), therefore make separation and purification difficult and increase impurity.
The method of most prior art is used gamma-butyrolactone as starting raw material, and it is first prepared by BDO or maleic anhydride, and through separate and purifying to prepare N-Methyl pyrrolidone.
Known N-Methyl pyrrolidone is prepared the intermediate product gamma-butyrolactone of use by 1,4-butyleneglycol is prepared by following certain embodiments, dehydrogenation under existing by the catalyzer of preparing under existing at Cu/Cr catalyzer or in Zn and Mn are added to Cu/Cr catalyzer, by using oxygenant as oxygen dehydrogenation under existing containing one or more the catalyzer such as Pt, Pd, Ag, or dehydrogenation under existing by the catalyzer of preparing in basic metal or Al are added to Cu/Zn catalyzer.
Generally, gamma-butyrolactone is prepared by the BDO dehydrogenation with Cu/Cr catalyzer.But this method has defect, as Cu/Cr catalyzer, because use heavy metal chromium can cause environmental pollution, and there is side reaction and produces by products such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), therefore reduce selectivity and be converted into the transformation efficiency of gamma-butyrolactone.Therefore, Japanese Patent Laid discloses flat No. 4-17954 zinc or magnesium is added in Cu/Cr catalyzer to overcome above defect, but this method still has problem, and if productive rate is 95%, and catalyst life is short approximately 1 month.
No. 2-27349, Japanese Patent Publication and Japanese Patent Laid disclose clear disclosing for No. 61-212577 and by use, contain the catalyzer such as palladium, silver are prepared gamma-butyrolactone under oxygenant exists as oxygen method by BDO dehydrogenation.But according to this method, catalyst life is very short, and selectivity and transformation efficiency very low.
GB1066979 discloses by using and has added catalyzer prepared by Cu/Zn catalyzer by BDO dehydrogenation, to be prepared the method for gamma-butyrolactone in aluminium.But according to this method, productive rate is very low and catalyst life is very short.
