Description

Catalyst composition for synthesizing methyl propionate from ethylene and synthesis method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic chemical products synthesized by ethylene carbonylation, and particularly relates to a catalyst composition for synthesizing methyl propionate by ethylene and a synthesis method thereof.
Background
Methyl propionate is a colorless and transparent organic liquid, is widely used as a solvent for high-grade food and cosmetics, and can also be used as an excellent additive, preservative or spice for partial food and feed. Methyl propionate can be subjected to aldol condensation reaction with formaldehyde to generate an important chemical synthesis raw material Methyl Methacrylate (MMA), and various products such as acrylic acid, propionic acid and propionate (benzyl propionate, isoamylpropionate and the like) can also be prepared through saponification reaction, hydrolysis reaction and ester exchange reaction, so that the development of a synthesis process of methyl propionate is beneficial to the progress and development of the process technologies such as propionic acid, propionate and the like.
Most of catalyst systems used for synthesizing methyl propionate by carbonylation reaction are noble metal complex systems, and palladium (II) salt and tridentate phosphine compound are used as main active components, for example, a palladium (II) compound, aryl substituted phosphine and acid system are involved in patent CN87110635 of SHELL company, and are used for carbonylation reaction of ethylene and methanol; in chinese patent CN103319337, a composite catalyst system with palladium acetate as a main catalyst and metal ions such as cobalt, nickel or ruthenium as an auxiliary catalyst is adopted. The catalyst system has the characteristics of taking noble metal palladium as a main active component, mild reaction condition, complete conversion and high selectivity. However, the use of expensive noble metals results in catalyst costs that represent a significant portion of the overall production costs, which are high.
Currently, non-noble metal catalyst systems for the synthesis of methyl propionate by carbonylation have also attracted extensive academic attention. Literature [ r.f.heck, j.a.m.chem.soc.1963, 85; w.keim.j.mol.catal.,1989,54(1) ] shows that ruthenium, nickel, cobalt, etc. complex catalysts are active in the oxo synthesis of methyl propionate from carbon monoxide/methanol/ethylene. However, the non-noble metal catalyst systems have the defects of harsh reaction conditions, low conversion rate and poor selectivity, and basically have no commercial application prospect.
Therefore, there is a need to develop a catalyst composition for synthesizing methyl propionate from ethylene with low production cost and high efficiency, and a synthesis method thereof.
