Background
Sebacic acid is an important raw material for the synthesis of polymer materials and organic synthesis. Publication CN101318892A describes a process for the preparation of sebacic acid from castor oil based compounds, sebacic acid being prepared by alkaline cleavage of ricinoleic acid under high pressure and high temperature; however, the method has high energy consumption and large price fluctuation of the raw material castor oil. In order to prepare sebacic acid inexpensively, researchers are actively searching for new raw materials and synthetic methods.
Wherein, the adipic acid is used as a raw material to synthesize adipate compounds through esterification, the sebacic ester compounds are synthesized through Brown-Walker electrolytic decarboxylation coupling, and then the sebacic acid is obtained through hydrolysis. For example, the following technical scheme is disclosed in the document 'preparation of sebacic acid from adipic acid. Liaoning chemical industry, 1981(03): 66-67':
esterification of adipic acid to monomethyl adipate:
HOOC(CH2)4COOH+CH3OH→CH3OOC(CH2)4COOH+H2O
decarboxylation coupling of monomethyl adipate to dimethyl sebacate:
2CH3OOC(CH2)4COOH→CH3OOC(CH2)8COOCH3+H2+2CO2
hydrolysis of dimethyl sebacate to sebacic acid:
CH3OOC(CH2)8COOCH3+2H2O→HOOC(CH2)8COOH+2CH3OH
