Description

A kind of method of extracting meta-cresol from M-and P-cresols mixture
Technical field
The invention belongs to the technical field of Chemicals separation of produced, be specifically related to a kind of method of extracting meta-cresol from M-and P-cresols mixture.
Background technology
Meta-cresol is the important organic synthesis intermediate of synthesising complex E and Multiple Pesticides, oxidation inhibitor.And the vitamin-E of production pharmaceutical grade requires the content of impurity p-cresol in stock yard cresols to be not more than 0.2%, content >=99.8% of meta-cresol.
High purity meta-cresol conventional production methods is meta-aminotoluene diazotization hydrolysis method, and this method exists the shortcoming that environmental pollution is serious, atom utilization is low, does not meet the theory of Modern Green chemical industry.
Coal chemical enterprise in process of production can a large amount of phenol products of by-product, after initial gross separation, can obtain the M-and P-cresols mixture that purity is greater than 99%, but due to 203 DEG C of meta-cresol boiling points, 202.8 DEG C of p-cresol boiling points, so be difficult to realize the separation of the two by conventional rectification method, especially want separation to obtain p-cresol content and be not more than 0.2% highly purified meta-cresol, be difficult to especially realize.
US Patent No. 3,855,195 disclose one is dissolved in the M-and P-cresols mixture of meta-cresol, p-cresol (weight ratio 2:1) in toluene, and crystallization under urea exists, and obtains the method for meta-cresol after processing through rectifying again.The pure meta-cresol of what is called preparing according to its disclosed method, content, below 99.5%, cannot meet the requirement of production pharmaceutical grade vitamin-E.And the method need to be used hypertoxic toluene as solvent, can damage and cause serious environmental pollution operator.
Japanese Patent TOHKEMY 2009-7288 discloses a kind of mixture forming from meta-cresol 65%, p-cresol 35%, under existing, urea forms crystallization, through mixed solvent (1-methylnaphthalene 50% mixes with the tetradecane 50%) washing, obtain the method for meta-cresol.The meta-cresol purity that the method obtains is up to 99.1%, also cannot reach the requirement of production pharmaceutical grade vitamin-E.
Zhejiang University of prominent domestic colleges and universities, Tongji University, University Of Tianjin, China University Of Petroleum Beijing, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, Northwest University etc. had all delivered the paper that a lot of M-and P-cresols separate in recent years, these papers mainly focus on meta-cresol and urea blend crystallization, isolate in this problem of meta-cresol, but also in laboratory stage, there is no the value of industrial applications.
Therefore,, with regard to the situation of currently available technology, also fail to solve at all and from the mixture of M-and P-cresols, extract the problem that p-cresol content is not more than 0.2% high purity meta-cresol.
Summary of the invention
The object of this invention is to provide a kind of method of extracting meta-cresol from M-and P-cresols mixture, the method can realize and from the cresols mixture of meta-cresol content 50-90%, p-cresol content 10-50%, extract the meta-cresol that obtains content >=99.8%.
