Description

A kind of method with urea and methyl alcohol Synthesis of dimethyl carbonate
Technical field:
Methylcarbonate (Dimethyl carbonate is called for short DMC) is a kind of environmental friendliness chemical products, and its application more and more is subject to people's attention.It can replace traditional phosgene, methyl-sulfate to produce polycarbonate, isocyanic ester etc., makes quality product raising, production process not have burn into simplified equipment, public hazards minimizing; It can be used for synthesizing the specialty chemicals of high added value, is applied to medicine, agricultural chemicals, lubricated wet goods field; It is the solvent of excellent property, is used for the electrolytic solution of battery; It can also be used for boosting of octane rating as the additive of gasoline.
Use phosgenation to synthesize DMC the earliest, but since phosgene hypertoxicity is arranged and, is eliminated gradually the severe corrosive of equipment; That oxidative carbonylation of methanol method exists is big to equipment corrosion, catalyst life weak point, unstripped gas price height, CO have problems such as toxicity, and development is restricted; The raw material oxyethane that ester-interchange method is used or the price of propylene oxide are expensive and inflammable and explosive, and its development is subjected to the potential influence.
Summary of the invention:
It is low to the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of cost, the method by urea and methyl alcohol Synthesis of dimethyl carbonate of reaction process safety.
The directly synthetic DMC of urea and methyl alcohol is synthetic DMC of two steps in the presence of catalyzer with urea and methyl alcohol, and reaction formula is expressed as follows:
Two-step reaction all is little thermo-negative reaction, and high temperature is beneficial to reaction, and wherein the first step reaction is easier to, and (140~190 ℃) just can react under relatively low temperature, and second step then needed higher temperature (more than 190 ℃).Two-step reaction all produces gas NH3, and two-step reaction all needs catalyzer, and is available with a kind of catalyzer.Because the raw material that uses is urea, thereby makes cost of the present invention low, reaction process safety.
Synthetic method of the present invention is: urea and methyl alcohol are put into reactor, add Primary Catalysts or Primary Catalysts and promotor, be warmed up to 120-190 ℃, reacted 1-4 hour, and be warming up to 190-250 ℃ again, reacted 4-18 hour, or once be warmed up to 190-250 ℃, reacted 4-18 hour, temperature of reaction is reduced to room temperature, separates to make product;
Wherein the ratio of each component is: urea and methyl alcohol mol ratio are urea: methyl alcohol=1: 2-10
The weight ratio of Primary Catalysts, promotor and urea is a Primary Catalysts: promotor: urea=1: 0-5: 1-20.
Aforesaid Primary Catalysts is organometallic compound C 4H 9Li, R 2SnX 2, R 2SnO; Wherein X represents Cl, R ' O, R ' COO, and it is the alkyl of 2-12 that R, R ' represent carbon number.
Aforesaid promotor is Lewis Acids and Bases ph 3P, BF 3, 4-dimethylamino pyridine etc.
The analytical procedure of product of the present invention is: product of distillation is produced GC-920 with sea, Shanghai glad chromatogram company limited and is analyzed.Chromatographic condition is as follows: chromatographic column: external diameter 3mm, the stainless steel column of long 2m; Monomer: GDX-203 (60~80 order): detector: thermal conductivity cell; Sampler temperature: 220 ℃; Column and programmed temperature: 100 ℃ of initial temperature, 7 minutes time; 20 ℃ of heat-up rate per minutes; Temperature is 200 ℃ eventually, 20 minutes time; Sample size: 1 μ L.
The present invention compared with prior art has following advantage:
(1) raw materials cost is low.
(2) reaction process safety.
(3) technology is simple, and is easy to operate.
