Description

Method for preparing monochloro-o-xylene by continuous chlorination of o-xylene
Technical Field
The disclosure relates to the field of chemical production processes, and in particular relates to a method for preparing monochloro-o-xylene through continuous chlorination of o-xylene.
Background
In recent years, with the rapid development of the polyimide industry, the dianhydride monomer is increasingly required. The monochlorophthalic anhydride prepared by oxidizing monochloro-o-xylene is an ideal raw material for synthesizing a plurality of dianhydride monomers, and even polyimide can be directly synthesized by bischlorophthalimide and bisphenol salt, so that the production cost of the polyimide is greatly reduced. There is currently little research on monochloro-o-xylene and only patent CN1080278A discloses an example of batch chlorination in a tank reactor. Similar to the o-xylene chlorination process, the chlorination of benzene to chlorobenzene and the chlorination of toluene to monochlorobenzene are carried out, and two common industrial production schemes are adopted:
one is an intermittent chlorination process of a kettle reactor, which is very similar to o-xylene disclosed in patent CN1080278A, and has the same problems of low production efficiency, low chlorine utilization rate (less than 90 percent and only 82 percent of the rate), and large material holding capacity of reaction equipment;
a continuous chlorination process using tower-type reactor features that a large number of iron rings are installed in a reaction tower without adding catalyst, and the water content in toluene is used to generate FeCl3And (4) preparing a catalyst. Although the scheme realizes continuous production, the potential safety hazard is large, and the scheme is embodied in the following aspects: firstly, the chlorine reacts with water to generate hypochlorous acid in the process of generating hydrochloric acid, and the hypochlorous acid generates atomic oxygen or oxygen with higher activity when being heated; on the other hand, hydrochloric acid reacts with an iron ring to generate FeCl2Hydrogen gas is simultaneously generated. Therefore, chlorine, hydrogen, oxygen and explosive raw materials exist in the reaction system at the same time, and safety risk is brought to production. The reason for the frequent occurrence of detonations in the absorption of off-gases in the production of chlorobenzene and chlorotoluene is that the chlorination of aromatics, which is originally safer, is in this case more dangerous. Some chlorination safety accidents are also caused by the reaction explosion of chlorine, hydrogen and oxygen. In addition, the tower reactor has poor heat transfer due to no stirring, and is easy to generate the condition of material carbonization caused by local overheating, which is called as black material in the industry. Office of this kindOverheating also carries a safety risk.
The monochloro-o-xylene and air oxidation are relatively feasible methods for industrially producing monochloro-phthalic anhydride, but the literature for preparing the monochloro-o-xylene by taking o-xylene as a raw material is very few. Patent CN1080278A discloses a method for obtaining monochloro-o-xylene by directly chlorinating chlorine gas in a stirred reactor with o-xylene as raw material and lewis acid such as ferric trichloride, aluminum trichloride, antimony trichloride, stannic chloride, etc. or iodine, iron, etc. as catalyst. This method exposes the following disadvantages in industrial practice:
(1) because the heat exchange area of the chlorination kettle jacket is limited, the reaction heat transfer is not timely, the temperature of the system is increased, and polychlorinated substitutes are easy to generate.
(2) The contact time of chlorine gas introduced into the bottom of the chlorination kettle and o-xylene is too short, so that the reaction is insufficient, and a part of chlorine gas escapes, so that the raw material loss is caused, and the trouble of tail gas aftertreatment, even pollution, is caused.
(3) The chlorination reaction is a dangerous process, the kettle type chlorination reaction can only adopt a batch reaction, and under the condition of the same productivity, compared with a continuous reaction device, the batch device has larger instantaneous material holding amount, so that in case of accidents, the more serious harm is caused.
(4) The intermittent reaction process device is relatively troublesome to automatically control, has more production operators and does not meet the requirement of safety management of modern chemical engineering.
