Description

Method for preparing m-diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide and p-diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for preparing m-diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide and p-diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide.
Background
Meta-diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide (m-DHP) and para-diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide (p-DHP) are important fine organic intermediates and are widely used for the synthesis production of resorcinol and hydroquinone. The meta-DHP and the para-DHP can be used as a polymerization initiator, an initiator for diisopropylbenzene air (oxygen) oxidation reaction, and an epoxidizing agent for synthesizing propylene oxide or butylene oxide. The activity of the hydroperoxy group is utilized, and the hydroperoxy group can also be used as a raw material for synthesizing other organic peroxides.
The traditional production process of meta-position and para-position diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide is prepared by an oxidation synthesis process of a pure meta-position diisopropylbenzene raw material or a pure para-position diisopropylbenzene raw material.
The pure meta-position and para-position diisopropylbenzene raw materials are prepared by separating a mixture of meta-position diisopropylbenzene and para-position diisopropylbenzene. And (2) carrying out oxidation reaction on the pure meta-position or para-position diisopropylbenzene obtained after separation at a certain temperature and pressure to firstly generate diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide MHP, continuously oxidizing the MHP to obtain diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide DHP to prepare diisopropylbenzene oxidation liquid, wherein the MHP content in the oxidation liquid is generally more than 50%, the DHP content is only about 10%, preparing a MIBK solution containing a small amount of DHP by alkali liquor extraction and MIBK back extraction, and then carrying out secondary oxidation by hydrogen peroxide to obtain DHP.
However, m-diisopropylbenzene and p-diisopropylbenzene are isomers, m-diisopropylbenzene has a boiling point of 203 ℃, p-diisopropylbenzene has a boiling point of 210.3 ℃, the difference of boiling points is very small, relative volatility is small, a conventional rectification method needs 150 trays, separation difficulty is very high, operation time is long, energy consumption in the rectification process is high, a product is easy to generate a thermosensitive reaction, and separation efficiency is low. CN104672042A discloses a separation method of m-p mixed diisopropylbenzene, which needs to be separated by an extractive distillation and ordinary distillation two-stage distillation method, not only adopts a large amount of extractant, but also has high energy and material consumption.
CN101544586A discloses a method for preparing mixed DHP by using m-p mixed diisopropylbenzene as a raw material. In the presence of an initiator, under a certain temperature and pressure, mixing diisopropylbenzene, carrying out oxidation reaction by using air, introducing an oxidation solution containing DHP (and a small amount of HHP), MHP and DIPB obtained through the oxidation reaction into a 15-20% sodium hydroxide solution for extraction, dissolving DHP in the oxidation solution in an alkali liquor, carrying out oil-water two-phase separation on the extracted mixture, circulating an oil phase back to an oxidation system, neutralizing the water phase by using dilute sulfuric acid and the like until the pH value is 6-7, layering, and collecting an upper oil layer to obtain the DHP. Because of the use of mixed diisopropylbenzenes, the resulting DHP is also a mixture of meta and para isomers, but the invention does not relate to the separation of meta and para DHP.
US5032688A discloses a process for the preparation of para-DHP by oxidation of 1, 4-bis (2-hydroxy-2-propyl) benzene (para-DC) with hydrogen peroxide. The patent adopts 72 wt% sulfuric acid as catalyst and ammonium sulfate as acid-binding agent, and excess hydrogen peroxide with 15-25% of hydrogen peroxide content reacts with para-position DC at 25-50 ℃ to prepare para-position DHP. The process has the following disadvantages: 1. the reaction conversion rate and yield are not high, and the method is not suitable for the oxidation reaction of meta-position and para-position mixed DC; 2. the use amount of the sulfuric acid is large, so that the corrosion to equipment is serious, and the method is not suitable for industrial production; 3. a large amount of acid-containing wastewater is generated, which is not beneficial to environmental protection; 4. in addition, excessive hydrogen peroxide can also react with generated hydroquinone to generate a colored by-product which is difficult to separate. The preparation method is also not suitable for a reaction system of a mixture of meta-position DC and para-position DC, because the meta-position DC and the para-position DC are insoluble in water, and the meta-position DC and the meta-position HHP are difficult to be oxidized, and the final reaction product is a mixture containing the meta-position DHP, the para-position DHP and the meta-position HHP.
