Description

Method for preparing 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for preparing 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide, and belongs to the technical field of fine chemical engineering.
Background
2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide, also known as methionine amide, is an important chemical intermediate, and can be used for preparing antiepileptic drug levetiracetam, novel antibiotic acetylglucosamine deacetylase, immune biochemical preparation homocysteine and the like. At present, the production method of 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide mainly comprises a chemical synthesis method, a biological fermentation method and an enzyme catalysis method, wherein the chemical synthesis method is the most common. The known chemical synthesis process route is that 2-amino-4-methylthiobutyronitrile (abbreviated as 'aminobutyronitrile') is catalyzed and hydrolyzed to prepare 2-amino-4-methylthiobutyramide. Because 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyronitrile (cyanohydrin for short) and aminobutyronitrile have amino or hydroxyl at alpha position, the amino or hydroxyl is electron-withdrawing group, has larger influence on adjacent nitrile group, and has obvious difference with other nitrile compounds in property, the conventional catalyst is difficult to catalyze the hydrolysis of aminobutyronitrile. In the hydrolysis of organic nitriles, it has been reported in many known documents that the corresponding amides can be formed or the corresponding carboxylic acids can be directly formed by controlling the hydrolysis conditions.
Chinese patent CN1400966A discloses a method for preparing 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide by contacting cyanohydrin with pure ammonia, removing excessive ammonia after the first-step reaction is finished, and hydrolyzing in the presence of ketone and metal alkali hydroxide; the method adopts ketone as a catalyst, and the catalyst is difficult to separate and recover because the catalyst and reaction materials are mutually soluble; the metal alkali hydroxide causes final acidification to form salt, the yield of amide is low, and meanwhile, the catalytic effect of the catalyst is poor, so that the method is not suitable for industrial production.
Chinese patent CN1211360C discloses a method for preparing 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide by contacting with hydroxide ion exchange resin in the presence of ketone after preparing aminobutyronitrile with cyanohydrin; the method requires that in an aminonitrile hydrolysis system, 0.1-1.5 mol of ammonia is remained in each mol of aminonitrile, the reaction efficiency is influenced because the aminonitrile as a raw material is unstable due to the excessively low ammonia content in the system, and meanwhile, the problem of difficult separation and recovery of the catalyst exists because the ketone is adopted as the catalyst and is mutually soluble with reaction materials; the hydroxide radical ion exchange resin needs to be added with alkali to regenerate salt, the catalyst has poor catalytic effect and low yield, and the amide is only 82.3 percent and is not suitable for industrial production.
Chinese patent CN107108487A discloses a one-pot method for preparing methionine by hydrolyzing aminobutyronitrile in the presence of cerium oxide catalyst. The method has the problems that the hydrolysis temperature is too high, nitrile polymerization is generated in the hydrolysis process, and colored substances are formed, so that the color of the hydrolysis liquid is dark, and the service life of the catalyst is short; and excessive hydrolysis to D, L-methionine makes it difficult to obtain 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide.
In summary, the current preparation process of 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide has the following main problems: (1) the raw material of the aminobutyronitrile is unstable and is inconvenient to store; (2) the catalyst has low catalytic efficiency, poor hydrolysis selectivity and low yield, and is not suitable for industrial production; (3) nitrile polymerization is generated in the hydrolysis process, and colored substances are formed to cause the color of hydrolysate to be dark, so that the product quality is influenced; (4) the catalyst is quick in inactivation, the cycle times are few, and the process cost is high; (5) the hydrolysis conditions are not well controlled and carboxylic acid is directly produced.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problem that nitrile is easy to polymerize in the hydrolysis process, the invention provides a method for preparing 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide.

In order to take the catalytic efficiency of the reaction and the recycling of the catalyst into consideration, in the method, the catalyst for catalyzing hydrolysis is a solid catalyst; the solid catalyst is selected from molybdenum trioxide (MoO)3) Lanthanum oxide (La)2O3) Cerium oxide (CeO)2) Manganese dioxide (MnO)2) One or a combination of several of them. In the production process, the cerium dioxide is found to be the best experimental effect when being used as the catalyst, so the solid catalyst is preferably the cerium dioxide.

In the method, after hydrolysis is finished, water is added into the reaction device, standing and layering are carried out, hydrolysate is taken out to separate target products, and the catalyst in the reaction device is mechanically applied to the next hydrolysis reaction.
Specifically, the method for preparing the 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide comprises the following steps:
(1) ammoniation reaction: reacting cyanhydrin with ammonia gas or ammonia water at 20-30 deg.C and 0.3-0.4MPa to obtain aminobutyronitrile, wherein the mol number of ammonia is 3-4 times of that of cyanhydrin, and then flashing the aminobutyronitrile-containing ammoniation solution at normal temperature and normal pressure to remove excessive ammonia, and maintaining the ammonia content in the ammoniation solution at 5-7%;
(2) and (3) hydrolysis reaction: adding the flash evaporated ammoniated liquid containing the aminobutyronitrile and a solid catalyst into a reaction device, hydrolyzing at 30-40 ℃ for 1-2h to generate 2-amino-4-methylthiobutanamide, and determining the reaction end point by central control;
