Description

Process for preparing salicylic acid by solvent method
The present invention belongs to the field of salicylic acid producing technology with phenol, sodium hydroxide, carbon dioxide, sulfuric acid, etc. as material. In particular to a method for preparing salicylic acid by dehydrating in the presence of an organic solvent, dissolving the dehydrated sodium phenolate and the organic solvent into a uniform and transparent liquid and carrying out carboxylation reaction on the liquid and carbon dioxide.
The salicylic acid is mainly used in the industries of medicine, pesticide, dye and the like, and the traditional Koble-Skhmitt solid phase carboxylation method is still adopted to produce the salicylic acid at home and abroad before the invention is made. The method has the disadvantages that the phenol sodium salt is dehydrated into dry powder which is easy to burn and explode. The reaction is a gas-solid reaction, the contact of the reaction is poor, the partial overheating is easy, the p-hydroxybenzoic acid is easy to generate, the product is difficult to refine, and the sublimation-grade salicylic acid can be obtained only by using special vacuum sublimation equipment.
In recent years, the solvent process for the preparation of salicylic acid has been reported (C, A, Vol121990), which uses alkylbenzene C6H6-nRn(R is low-carbon alkyl, n is 1-4) is solvent, the alkali metal salt of phenol reacts with carbon dioxide to prepare salicylic acid, the sodium salt of phenol is insoluble in alkylbenzene, the reaction is gas-liquid-solid three-phase reaction, the reaction effect is poor, the process flow is long, and the industrial production is difficult.
The invention aims to provide a novel process for preparing salicylic acid by a solvent method, which adopts an organic solvent with good intermiscibility with sodium phenolate to ensure that reaction liquid is uniform and transparent liquid, and removes water in the sodium phenolate to directionally produce the salicylic acid.
The object of the invention is achieved by the following technical measures.
The technological process for preparing salicylic acid is shown in the attached drawing. A process for preparing salicylic acid by solvent method includes such steps as adding the sodium phenolate containing water to octanol as organic solvent, vacuum dewatering to obtain transparent liquid, introducing carbon dioxide, gas-liquid phase carboxylating reaction to obtain sodium salicylate, and acidifying. In the reaction process, the weight ratio of the organic solvent to the phenol is preferably selected to be within the range of 4-10: 1.
In addition, in the process, the molar ratio of phenol to sodium hydroxide is 1: 1.0-1.05, and the concentration of the adopted sodium hydroxide aqueous solution can be 30-50%.
The process is carried out under vacuum degree of 0-0.1Mpa and temperature of 40-140 deg.C. When the water content in the sodium salt of phenol is less than 0.3 percent, the dehydration is stopped. At this time, excess carbon dioxide may be introduced into the liquid phase to perform carboxylation reaction at a reaction pressure of 0-0.8Mpa and a temperature of 100-190 ℃. And stopping introducing the carbon dioxide after the reaction is finished to generate the salicylic acid sodium salt. Then, cooling, adding water and standing under the protection of nitrogen, and acidifying the separated water phase to obtain the high-purity salicylic acid with the content of more than 99.55%. And recycling the separated organic solvent containing phenol.
The reaction equation for preparing salicylic acid in the invention is as follows:
1. to produce phenol sodium salt:
phenol is a weak acid which reacts readily with alkali to form sodium phenolate and water
2. And (3) carboxylation reaction:
the alkali metal salts of phenol readily undergo carboxylation with carbon dioxide to form sodium hydroxybenzoate, and different alkali metals or hydroxybenzoic acids formed at different temperatures. The reason why the present invention can orient the production of sodium ortho-hydroxybenzoate (salicylate) is that the presence of the above organic solvent results in a homogeneous solution for carboxylation. The reaction equation is as follows:
because the hydrogen on the hydroxyl in the molecule of the sodium salicylate is acidic, the sodium salicylate reacts with sodium phenolate to generate disodium salicylate:
obtaining a reaction formula (3) from the reaction formulas (1) + (2):
as can be seen from the reaction formula (3): the theoretical yield of salicylic acid from phenol is up to 50%, but carboxylation under pressure inhibits the formation of the disodium salt.
3. And (3) acidification reaction:
4. side reaction:
water and carbon dioxide react to form carbonic acid:
because of H2CO3Acid strength: pka1=10,Pka210.2, and C6H5The hydrogen acidity strength at the hydroxyl group in (OH) is Pka ═ 10, so the sodium salt of phenol reacts readily with carbonic acid to form phenol and sodium bicarbonate:
Figure C0012303600052
from the reaction equation: no water exists in the reaction system, otherwise, the phenol sodium salt is reduced into phenol, carboxylation cannot occur, and salicylic acid cannot be generated. The key problem of the process is how to completely remove the water in the sodium phenolate. The traditional Kolbe-Skhmitt method uses excessive phenol for dehydration to finally obtain dry powder of sodium phenolate, the water content of the dry powder is difficult to control in the production process, water is difficult to remove completely, local overheating and explosion are easy to occur, the reaction effect is poor, p-hydroxybenzoic acid is easy to generate, black spots exist in the product, and high-quality salicylic acid is difficult to obtain.
The invention selects an organic solvent with good effect, which is dissolved with sodium phenolate to form uniform transparent liquid, and the organic solvent is dehydrated in liquid phase, with good effect, and can dehydrate water in a reaction system to 0.02-0.3%. Carboxylation in liquid phase has high reaction selectivity, can directionally generate salicylic acid,and can recycle the solvent easily. The whole reaction process has no local overheating, the carboxylation reaction is a gas-liquid two-phase reaction, the traditional solid phase reaction is replaced by a liquid phase reaction, the carboxylation reaction speed is high, the selectivity is good, the total yield is high, and the solvent is easy to recover and reuse. The reaction process is a sealed circulation system, basically has no pollution, and is a new method suitable for industrial continuous production of salicylic acid.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
1 the reaction system is easy to dehydrate,
2 the dehydrated phenol sodium salt is homogeneous transparent liquid,
3 the water content is 0.02-0.3%.
The 4 carboxylation reaction is a gas-liquid two-phase reaction, the reaction speed is high, and the reaction time is 4-6 hours.
5 has good reaction selectivity, can directionally generate salicylic acid and basically has no p-hydroxybenzoic acid.
The 6-carboxylation reaction can be carried out under normal pressure or under pressure.
The solvent 7 is easy to recover, phenol and the solvent are recycled together in the reaction process, and the total recovery rate of the reaction is high and is more than 95 percent.
8, the product quality is high, the product meets the pharmaceutical grade standard, and the content is 99.56 percent.
9 the process is simple, safe in production, low in production cost, short in reaction time and suitable for large-scale continuous production.
The process can adopt closed cycle production, the phenol is recycled, no discharge is generated, andthree wastes are basically not generated.
