Technical field
The present invention relates to chemosynthesis technical field, be specifically related to a kind of synthetic method of 2-Tert. Butyl Hydroquinone.
Background technology
2-Tert. Butyl Hydroquinone (TBHQ) is a kind of low toxicity, novel food product antioxidant efficiently, applied range.In industries such as rubber, plastics makeup application is arranged all.The important use of TBHQ is the oxidation inhibitor as food oils, and TBHQ is as the oxidation inhibitor of food oils, has efficient, low toxicity, thermally-stabilised good advantage.
The method of at present synthetic TBHQ mainly contains two kinds: (1) is catalyzer with the liquid inorganic acid, and Resorcinol (HQ) carries out alkylated reaction with the trimethyl carbinol, iso-butylene or methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) in the mixed solvent of water and organic solvent composition; (2) be catalyzer with the solid acid, Resorcinol and isobutyl carry out alkylated reaction in organic solvent.
The advantage of first method is that the TBHQ selectivity reaches 77%, but the aftertreatment trouble, acid catalyst pollutes big; The advantage of second method is that catalyst separating is convenient, can be recycled, and pollutes little, but strict to the moisture controlled in the reaction system.
The tertiary butyl one substitution reaction takes place on the phenyl ring of TBHQ Resorcinol to be generated.2,5 di tert butyl hydroquinone (DTBQ) is to produce the by product that TBHQ is easy to generate most.The generation of two substitution reaction by product ditert-butylhydro quinones (DTBHQ) has reduced the utilization ratio of Resorcinol, and the DTBHQ anorexia is used, as aldehydes matter, if it is discarded with contaminate environment, in the technology of the production TBHQ that is reported at present, the ratio that generates TBHQ is generally 68~75%, and the ratio that generates DTBHQ is generally 18~25%, and this shows that nearly 15~20% Resorcinol is converted into DTBHQ and loses.
The principal reaction formula:
