Description

Adiponitrile production method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, in particular to a method for producing adiponitrile.
Background
Adiponitrile (ADN) is a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid, slightly odorous, slightly water-soluble, ether-soluble, alcohol-soluble, and is one of the essential raw materials for producing nylon 66. Hydrogenation reduction of adiponitrile to obtain hexamethylenediamine, and polycondensation of hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid to obtain nylon 66. Adiponitrile can also be used for preparing chemical products such as caprolactam, can also be used for textile industry and electroplating industry, and has wide application in the chemical field.
The current process routes for producing adiponitrile mainly comprise an acrylonitrile electrolytic method, a butadiene hydrocyanation method, an adipic acid catalytic ammonification method and the like. Butadiene hydrocyanation processes are classified into butadiene hydrocyanation chloride processes and butadiene direct hydrocyanation processes. The butadiene hydrocyanation method is a method developed by Dupont in the beginning of 60 th century, and has the advantages of complex process, serious corrosion, large investment and large consumption of chlorine and hydrocyanic acid, and is eliminated. At the beginning of the 70 s, dupont developed a direct hydrocyanation method of butadiene without chlorine, which avoids the pollution problem caused by electrolysis of sodium chloride and removal of sodium chloride in the chloridizing-cyanidation method, reduces the raw material cost by 15% and saves energy by 45% compared with the chloridizing method. The direct cyanation method of butadiene is the most mainstream adiponitrile production process route at present, and the method has the characteristics of wide raw materials, short process route, higher yield, small pollution and the like, is called as a process showing green competitiveness, and is the most reasonable adiponitrile preparation method with best atomic economy at present.
Principle of direct hydrocyanation of butadiene: the direct hydrocyanation of butadiene to adiponitrile involves three steps, primary cyanidation, isomerization, and secondary cyanidation, using a transition metal catalyst that introduces two molecules of HCN into butadiene, typically using a complex of transition metals such as Ni, rh, ru, etc.
For example: patent publication CN103180290a discloses a method for producing nitrile, which discloses a butadiene method for synthesizing adiponitrile mainly comprising three steps of hydrocyanation, isomerization and double hydrocyanation, wherein the reaction equations of the three steps are as follows:
(1) Primary hydrocyanation
(2) Isomerization of
(3) Secondary hydrocyanation
The patent with publication No. CN103012197A also discloses a preparation method of 3-pentenenitrile and a preparation method of adiponitrile, wherein the synthesis of adiponitrile by a butadiene method mainly comprises two steps of primary hydrocyanation and secondary hydrocyanation, and the reaction equations of the two steps are as follows:
however, the following problems exist in both the three-stage synthesis of adiponitrile from butadiene and the two-stage synthesis of adiponitrile from butadiene: (1) After the primary hydrocyanation reaction, butadiene, hydrocyanic acid and nickel catalyst are respectively recovered, 3-pentenenitrile is separated and purified, and then the 3-pentenenitrile and the hydrocyanic acid are subjected to secondary hydrocyanation reaction to obtain adiponitrile crude product. The conversion rate of the primary hydrocyanation reaction is 70-72%, the selectivity is 72-75%, the conversion rate of the secondary hydrocyanation reaction is 70-72%, and the selectivity is 75-80%; (2) The reaction is carried out in a conventional autoclave, the multiphase reaction materials are mixed poorly, the reaction time is long, and the yield and the selectivity are low; (3) Multiple times of rectification are needed, so that material polymerization and catalyst decomposition are caused, and the production cost is greatly increased.
