Description

Environment-friendly method for synthesizing benzil
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of chemical production, in particular to a green and environment-friendly method for synthesizing benzil.
Background
Diphenylethanedione is also named as benzil and benzil, is yellow rhombic crystal powder, shows special reaction activity due to the fact that the diphenylethanedione has a non-conjugated aromatic alpha-dicarbonyl structure, has wide application in production of biological medicines, pesticides and daily chemicals, is an important organic synthesis intermediate and organic chemical raw material, and is widely used for synthesizing pesticides, photosensitizers, photocuring agents of photocuring coatings, medical intermediates and the like. The synthetic method is that benzoin is used as raw material and is obtained by oxidation. The oxidation of benzoin can be divided into catalytic oxidation and non-catalytic oxidation, the catalytic oxidation is carried out by oxidant in the presence of catalyst such as metal oxide, metal organic complex, organic catalyst, nano-particle, etc.; the non-catalytic oxidation method is to directly oxidize benzoin to synthesize benzil without any catalyst. Can be used for oxidation of benzoinThere are many types of agents, which can be classified into inorganic oxidizing agents, organic oxidizing agents, carrier oxidizing agents, and the like. Inorganic oxidants such as HNO 3 、KMnO 4 、MnO 2 、CuCl 2 、NH 4 NO 3 /CH 3 COOH、Cu( OAc) 2 /NH 4 NO 3 /CH 3 COOH、FeCl 3 ·6H 2 O/CH 3 COOH、(NO 3 ) 3 CeBrO 3 ,BaFeO 4 The oxidation of inorganic oxidant is the most mature method with the advantages of simple operation in the synthesis process and suitability for large-scale production. The disadvantages are obvious, firstly, many inorganic oxidants have strong corrosivity and high toxicity, generate great corrosivity on chemical production equipment and bring great danger to related operators; secondly, the wastewater generated by the inorganic oxidant contains a large amount of metal ions, has high pollution, causes great pollution to the environment, brings harm to human survival, and does not conform to the concept of green chemistry; thirdly, many inorganic oxidants have the disadvantages of easy decomposition and difficult storage, and the oxidation performance is uncertain, the reaction conditions are complex, and the reaction is difficult to control in the oxidation process of benzoin, so that a stable, low-corrosivity and safe oxidant is urgently needed to replace the inorganic oxidants.
Organic oxidizers have the advantages of good solubility, high oxidation, mild reaction, and the like, and are often used to replace inorganic oxidizers. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a commonly used organic oxidizer, and DMSO/(COCl) is used as reported by Mancuso et al 2 As an oxidant, it can achieve 95% oxidation yield for benzoin (manuso a, Brownfain D,J. Org. Chem,1979, 44: 4148-4150). As an effective oxidizing agent, benzil tribromide (PTT) and N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) have also been reported in Hymine (Onmunol), and when PTT is used as the oxidizing agent, the reaction proceeds with stirring at room temperature (Hymenen (Onmunol), a study of benzoin oxidation, chemical and adhesive bonding, 1994, 48: 78-80). Ph for Ho 3 PBr 2 The oxidation of benzoin by/MeCN as an oxidant (Tse-Lok Ho,Synthesis,1972,697;Isao Furukawa , Mitsuhiro Sasaki , Takeshi Inoue & Tetsuo Ohta,Phosphorus, Sulfur and Silicon, 1998, 143, 85-99), Suman et al utilize NBS/NH 4 Cl system in CH 3 CN/H 2 Benzil was synthesized in 94% yield in a mixed solvent of O (Suman L. Jain and Bir Sain, Synth. Comm., 2006, 36: 1459-. Although the organic oxidants show the superior performance of the organic oxidants in the synthesis reaction of the benzil and have great success, many organic oxidants have serious environmental pollution, and many metal organic oxidants have higher manufacturing cost than common inorganic oxidants, are difficult to post-treat and cannot be recycled, and the defects limit the application of the organic oxidants in the industrial synthesis field.
H 2 O 2 The best benzoin oxidizing agent is/HBr, Vishal B. Sharma reports H without metal catalyst 2 O 2 Benzoin is oxidized by a/HBr oxidation system to obtain benzoin, and the yield reaches 96% in 30 minutes (Vishal B. Sharma,Synlett, 2005, 173-175). However, the reaction can only be carried out in a small amount, which has a good effect, cannot be scaled up and industrialized, and the bond cleavage often occurs to generate the benzoic acid by-product.
The synthesis of benzil by oxygen oxidation of benzoin is a green synthesis method, but can be carried out under the Catalysis of a catalyst or under other conditions meeting the requirement of an oxidant (Duzhongtian et al, a method for preparing benzil by catalytic oxidation of benzoin, CN 107903155, Yongke Hu, Lei Chen, binding Li, Catalysis Communications, 83 (2016) 82-87), the most commonly used catalyst is a Salen cobalt catalyst, but the Salen cobalt catalyst cannot be recycled, which increases the cost.
The synthesis of benzil, which is industrially mature at present, generally adopts a technology of oxidizing benzoin by nitric acid (Wang Xingshan et al, a synthesis process of benzoin dimethyl ether, CN 106563509A), adopts concentrated nitric acid as an oxidizing agent, and adopts a stirring kettle as a reactor. The process has the problems of long reaction time (8-12 h), low production efficiency, complex operation, poor safety and the like. And the products in the reaction contain a large amount of nitrogenOxides such as NO, NO 2 The environment is polluted greatly, and the physical and mental harms to operators are caused greatly. Therefore, the development of a novel method for preparing the benzil by oxidizing the benzoin, which is green, safe, stable and easy to operate, has important significance.
