6H
12O
2, molecular weight is 116.16, it has suitable, anti-two kinds of isomer, is respectively cis-1,2-cyclohexanediol and anti-form-1,2-cyclohexanediol.Cis-1,2-cyclohexanediol fusing point is 97-99 ℃, anti-form-1,2-cyclohexanediol fusing point is 102-104.5 ℃, boiling point is 126 ℃, can be dissolved in methyl alcohol, chloroform, soluble in water.
Anti-form-1,2-cyclohexanediol cis-1,2-cyclohexanediol
1,2-cyclohexanediol is owing to having two hydroxyls and ring texture in molecule, thereby has comparatively active chemical property, can carry out the reactions such as addition, replacement, oxidation, dehydrogenation.1,2-cyclohexanediol is a kind of very important Organic Chemicals, mainly for the manufacture of fine chemical products such as polyester, medicine, agricultural chemicals.Along with developing rapidly of petrochemical complex, recent two decades comes, and the exploitation of cyclohexene derivative have caused domestic and international chemical worker's abundant attention.Adopting tetrahydrobenzene is the intermediate product 1 that raw material prepares pyrocatechol, and the study on the synthesis work of 2-cyclohexanediol gets more and more people's extensive concerning.
At present, synthesize 1 with tetrahydrobenzene as raw material, the research method of 2-cyclohexanediol has more, the general cyclohexene oxide legal system standby 1 that adopts, the 2-cyclohexanediol is mainly by being first epoxy cyclohexane with cyclohexene oxide, then epoxy cyclohexane is hydrolyzed under acidic medium and obtains 1,2-cyclohexanediol, and concrete reaction process is:
End is got up, adopt the method for the standby epoxy cyclohexane of cyclohexene oxide legal system to be mainly chlorohydrination, two chlorohydrination, phase transfer catalysis process, wherein, chlorohydrination, the not environmental protection of two chlorohydrination are eliminated gradually, it is catalyzer that phase transfer catalysis process adopts precious metal, hydrolysis epoxy cyclohexane used catalyst is mainly mineral acid, organic acid and organic salt substantially, such as: sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, formic acid, acetic acid, acidic ion exchange resin etc.
Yet due to present cyclohexene oxide severe reaction conditions, oxidized byproduct is many, and namely target product selectivity is lower.Have the investigator to propose, wish improves the selectivity of purpose product, must filter out the stronger catalyzer of selectivity, and the one, guarantee selective epoxidation, the 2nd, guarantee that over oxidation does not generate the classes such as acid.Therefore, the cyclohexene oxide system that the development goal selectivity of product is higher will become emphasis and the key point of research and development in the future.
As everyone knows, TS-1/H
2O
2Oxidation system has good oxidation effectiveness to alkene, and the selectivity of target product is higher, yet when being applied to cyclohexene oxide, its primary product is epoxy cyclohexane, and in order to prepare 1, during the 2-cyclohexanediol, need to continue to obtain by the hydrolysis epoxy cyclohexane, this makes whole preparation process comparatively complicated undoubtedly.
Therefore, can develop a kind of tetrahydrobenzene that can adopt and directly prepare 1,2-cyclohexanediol, and the higher method of target product selectivity will become the emphasis direction of research in the future.
