Description

Preparation 2,3, the method for 5-trimethylammonium para benzoquinone
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation 2,3, the method for 5-trimethylammonium para benzoquinone.
Background technology
2,3,5-trimethylammonium para benzoquinone is the important intermediate of synthetic alpha-tocopherol (vitamin-E), and with 2,3, the 6-pseudocuminol is oxidized to 2,3, and 5-trimethylammonium para benzoquinone has many disclosed methods.Used inorganic oxidizer such as potassium permanganate, Manganse Dioxide, plumbous oxide in the disclosed method, must consume the catalyzer of stoichiometry, and produce the pollution waste liquid of more reducing metal, this waste liquid needs higher cost to dispose or regenerate.
US3796732 has described the use cupric chloride as catalyzer, is that reaction solvent carries out homogeneous reaction with DMF, and the recovery suitability for industrialized production of catalyzer and DMF is pretty troublesome, and cost recovery is higher.
CN1024188 has described and has used cupric chloride and lithium chloride to be catalyzer, and the mixed solvent of forming with the Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18) of aromatic hydrocarbons and 1-4 carbon atom is convenient to after reaction finishes separate and purify as reaction solvent, and the water that contains catalyzer can be applied mechanically repeatedly.Because the reaction solvent flash-point is lower, reaction system is again to react under pure oxygen or excess oxygen, therefore has bigger production safety hidden danger.
It is catalyzer that CN1293182 has described with cupric chloride and transition metal halide or rare earth element halogenide, is reaction solvent with the Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18) of water and 6-8 carbon atom, because the existence of low-flash solvent has bigger production safety hidden danger equally.
EP0369823 is with copper halide and nitrogenous compound such as azanol, amine or amine salt is as combination catalyst accordingly, and nitrogenous catalyzer can decompose under oxidizing condition, can not reclaim, and therefore can increase cost, and the alcohol that equally also needs 1-10 carbon atom is as solvent.
EP0387820 is a solvent with the Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18) of 12-18 carbon atom, because the boiling point of solvent is higher, product is difficult for and separated from solvent, and energy consumption is higher, is not suitable for industrial applications.
EP127888 is a catalyzer with the aqueous solution of cupric chloride lithium, and it is excessive greatly that the amount of catalyzer needs, and Preparation of catalysts is comparatively complicated, needs the title complex of preparation means of trivalent copper, and the Preparation of Catalyst cost is higher.
The new carboxylic acid that CN1319582 discloses with 8-11 carbon atom is a solvent, be solvent with the neodecanoic acid particularly, and the neodecanoic acid boiling point is higher, has product and separated from solvent trouble equally, the problem that separation costs is high.
It is reaction solvent that CN101113131A has described the ionic liquid that constitutes with imidazoles, quaternary ammonium and pyridylium and acid ion, reaction back straight run distillation, but a large amount of distillation residue and ionic liquids mix, and ionic liquid is difficult to directly apply mechanically, and is not suitable for suitability for industrialized production.
Summary of the invention
