Description

The azanol preparation of catalysis
The present invention relates to prepare the method for azanol in successive processes, also relate to the method for preparing oxime and the method for preparing lactan.
Azanol (following also referred to as " HYAM ") is the common agents in countless organic reactions and inorganic reaction.It is particularly suitable for oxime, particularly in the preparation of cyclohexanone-oxime, wherein oxime, hexanolactam be reset and be converted to cyclohexanone-oxime can through Beckmann subsequently particularly.The Beckmann rearrangement process that is used for preparing hexanolactam is known in the art, such as at Ullmann ' s Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, as the 7th edition (2005) (DOI:10.1002/14356007.a05.031) in.Described other oximes that use azanol to prepare, they comprise cyclododecanone oxime (as EP-A1329448) and Diacetylmonoxime.
The method for preparing azanol is also as known in the art.And, delivered the patent of many pieces of writing about this theme.For example GB-A1287303 and US5364609 relate in phosphate buffer solution with molecular hydrogen and reduce the method for nitrate.

cyclohexanone-oxime technique (referring to for example H.J.Damme, J.T.van Goolen and A.H.de Rooij, Cyclohexanone oxime made without byproduct (NH 4) 28O 4on July 10th, 1972, the 54/55th page of Chemical Engineering, perhaps Ullmann ' s Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry (2005), the 6/7th page, under the Chapter Caprolactam) utilized the liquid (inorganic liquid and organic liquid) of two kinds of recycles, carried out a plurality of reactions and operation in these liquid.Inorganic liquid, comprise the aqueous solution of phosphoric acid and ammonium nitrate, is fed in hydrogenation reactor, in this reactor, produces azanol.Through with the hydrogen reduction nitrate ion, forming azanol, this process is by heterogeneous hydrogenation catalyst (carbon is as the palladium-containing catalyst of carrier) catalysis.In general, in order to improve the performance of catalyzer, add the promotor for heterogeneous hydrogenation catalyst.
In the gas-liquid reaction device, gaseous hydrogen contacts with the inorganic liquid containing nitrate ion of circulation, also with buffering acid, with catalyzer, contacts.Hydrogeneous gas phase circulates by recycle compressor in whole bubbling column reactor.Fresh hydrogen is fed in recycle gas, discharges to keep constant hydrogen partial pressure from system on a small quantity.Gaseous by-product nitrogen (the N that removes the inertia gaseous component in fresh hydrogen and generate by gas purging 2) and nitrous oxide (N 2o).
By ultra-large type (Mammoth) pump principle, make solution-air suspension from inflation reactor (gassed reactor) partly, through gas-liquid separator circulation, arrive the filter post (filter candles) filtration fraction, and remove the heat of reaction via heat exchanger, then get back to inflation reactor part.
Then, the inorganic liquid obtained after filtering is contacted to the mixture that this organic liquid is toluene and pimelinketone with organic liquid in the oximate part.Herein, pimelinketone almost changes into cyclohexanone-oxime quantitatively.The organic phase containing cyclohexanone-oxime that distillation obtains reclaims toluene.
Thoroughly purifying leaves the inorganic liquid of oximate part, protects the catalyzer of hydroxylamine reactor.This can be by with the realization of getting off: the toluene extraction, then use steam stripped.In stripping tower, also removed and prepared the water that azanol generates together with when cyclohexanone-oxime.A small amount of ammonia by product is still stayed in solution, but passes through at nitrous gases (NO 2mixture with NO) change into nitrogen in resorber, prevent from gathering.
Finally, the consumption of nitrate deserves redress.Nitrous gases required in this process generates in the ammonia fuel element.
WO98/18717A1 has described the method for producing azanol by the catalytic reduction nitrate ion, and has mentioned by with pimelinketone, reacting and produce subsequently cyclohexanone-oxime.This patent has been instructed the selectivity that can strengthen palladium or platinum reducing catalyst by mixing a small amount of halogen.
