Description

Method for preparing 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical synthesis, and relates to a method for preparing 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone.
Background
The information in this background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and is not necessarily to be construed as an admission or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art that is already known to a person of ordinary skill in the art.
According to the research of the inventor, in the process of preparing 1, 3-Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) by a glycerol indirect oxidation method, glycerol generally reacts with benzaldehyde to generate glycerol benzaldehydes, then PCC (chromium trioxide pyridine hydrochloride), Collins reagent (chromium trioxide bipyridine) or TEMPO/NaBr/NaOCl are oxidized to prepare the dihydroxyacetone benzaldehydes, and then the dihydroxyacetone is subjected to acidic hydrolysis and then subjected to post-treatment such as dehydration, separation and purification to prepare the 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone. The inventor researches and discovers that the method has main problems including: chromium trioxide is used as an oxidant, so that the generated waste water is not easy to treat, and the environment is seriously polluted; by using a TEMPO/NaBr/NaOCl method, the TEMPO price is high, the NaOCl aqueous solution dosage is large, and the salt-containing organic wastewater is difficult to treat; 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone generated by hydrolyzing dihydroxyacetone benzaldehyde by hydrochloric acid is dissolved in an acid-containing aqueous solution, and extraction and purification are difficult.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the defects of the prior art, the invention aims to provide the method for preparing the 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone, which has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, high yield, simple and convenient operation and easy separation and purification of DHA.
In order to achieve the purpose, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
a method for preparing 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone comprises the steps of reacting glycerol with benzaldehyde to generate glycerol formal, carrying out oxidation reaction on the glycerol formal to obtain dihydroxyacetone formal, and carrying out hydrogenolysis reaction on the dihydroxyacetone formal under the action of a catalyst to obtain the 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone.
In order to solve the problem of difficult extraction in the preparation of 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone by hydrolyzing dihydroxyacetone benzaldehyde through hydrochloric acid, the preparation method adopts a hydrogenolysis method to avoid adding water into a reaction system, so that the extraction is simpler. However, in general, in the hydrogenolysis process, the catalyst can activate not only ether bond but also ketone carbonyl group, so that the ketone carbonyl group is easily reduced to form hydroxyl group in the hydrogenolysis process, so that 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone cannot be obtained, and in order to avoid the reduction of the ketone carbonyl group in the hydrogenolysis process, the ketone carbonyl group is protected, then hydrogenolysis is carried out, and then deprotection is carried out, so that the reaction route is increased, and the yield is reduced due to the increase of the route, so that the dihydroxyacetone benzaldehyde is not treated by the hydrogenolysis method by the person skilled in the art.
However, the present invention has been found through experiments unexpectedly that, in the dihydroxyacetone benzaldehyde of the present invention, after hydrogenolysis reaction is performed by a catalyst, not only can the ketocarbonyl group not be reduced, but also the yield of the 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone is high.
In order to solve the problem that chromium trioxide pollutes the environment or NaOCl aqueous solution generates a large amount of wastewater which is difficult to treat in the oxidation reaction process, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and phosphorus pentoxide are used for oxidation in the oxidation reaction. When the oxidation system is used for oxidation, an alkaline substance such as triethylamine needs to be added, and hydrochloric acid needs to be added dropwise for removing the triethylamine. However, the inventors have found that the addition of hydrochloric acid results in a decrease in the yield of dihydroxyacetone benzaldehydes. Thus, further, the oxidation reaction is followed by extraction, and the extracted organic phase is then washed with aqueous alkaline solution. The method can greatly improve the yield of the dihydroxyacetone benzaldehyde.
In addition, the synthesis of the glycerol formal generally adopts a glycerol excess mode for reaction, however, the glycerol excess affects the product separation and purification, and the post-treatment process is extremely complex. The research shows that the reaction in the mode of excess benzaldehyde can simplify the post-treatment process of generating glycerin formal, and in order to solve the problem, the molar quantity of benzaldehyde is more than that of glycerin in the reaction of glycerin and benzaldehyde to generate glycerin formal.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. the invention takes the glycerol and the benzaldehyde as raw materials to synthesize the glycerol formal under the reaction condition, the raw materials are cheap and easy to obtain, the operation is simple and convenient, and the yield is high.
2. The invention prepares the 1, 3-dihydroxyacetone by the hydrogenolysis reaction of the dihydroxyacetone benzaldehyde, the reaction condition is mild, the yield is high, and the product is easy to separate and purify.
