A kind of catalyzing ketone compound oxidation prepares the method for lactone
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of lactone, specifically, relate to the method that a kind of catalyzing ketone compound oxidation prepares lactone.
Background technology
Lactone is a kind of important organic synthesis intermediate, is widely used in polycaprolactone (PCL) and the blending and modifying resin of synthetic various different purposes as 6-caprolactone.Preparing by the Baeyer-Villiger oxidizing reaction in the method for lactone at present, the oxygenant that adopts all is organic peracid such as Peracetic Acid, benzoyl hydroperoxide etc. usually, use not only cost height but also in actually operating, exist many potential safety hazards of such oxygenant, make the practical application of this technology be restricted.
Therefore, by the Baeyer-Villiger oxidizing reaction, adopt environment-friendly, safe oxygen/air to prepare lactone as oxygenant and enjoy people's attention.Patent (CN102408404A) has reported to be the method that the oxidation of oxidizer catalytic pimelinketone prepares caprolactone with oxygen, and this method has been used azo type free base initiator in reaction process, have safety issue, practical application.Panda has reported with oxygen to be oxygenant, and zirconium phosphide is method (the Panda A B. that the oxidation of catalyst ketone compounds prepares lactone
Et al.Catalysis Science ﹠amp; Technology,

Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to provide a kind of and need not to use metal catalyst, mild condition, safe catalysis of pimelinketone oxidation to prepare the method for 6-caprolactone.
For achieving the above object, the present invention adopts following technical scheme:
Being raw material with the ketone compounds, is oxygenant with oxygen or air, adds organic solvent and auxiliary agent phenyl aldehyde, is catalyzer with the carbon nanotube of many walls or single wall, and under normal pressure, the control temperature of reaction is to carry out catalyzed reaction under 25 ~ 120 ℃ the condition.
Carbon nanotube described in the present invention is to be selected from a kind of in hydroxylation carbon nanotube, carboxylic carbon nano-tube, the carbonylation carbon nanotube, and the mol ratio of auxiliary agent phenyl aldehyde and raw ketone is 1 ~ 4, the preferred 30-60 of temperature of reaction ℃.Organic solvent is 1,2-ethylene dichloride, toluene, phenylfluoroform, ethyl acetate, sec-butyl acetate, 1, a kind of in 4-dichloro six ring.
It is catalyzer that the present invention adopts carbon nanotube, phenyl aldehyde is auxiliary agent, the catalysis of pimelinketone oxidation generates 6-caprolactone under the condition of oxygen or air existence, carbon nanotube can store the free radical that produces in the reaction process, improved the utilising efficiency of auxiliary agent, and for the propagation process of free radical provides assurance, accelerated the complexing of active specy benzoyl hydroperoxide and ketone, be conducive to the generation of 6-caprolactone.
Compared with prior art, the present invention has following beneficial effect:
1. adopting oxygen/air is oxygenant, has avoided the safety issue of using peracid to bring.
2. the present invention uses carbon nanotube as catalyzer, need not to use metal catalyst.
3. technology of the present invention is simple, product separates easily, catalyzer can reuse, and has favorable industrial application prospect.
