Background technology:
Urethylane (Methyl Carbomate is called for short MC), claim urethane again, it is a kind of intermediate of organic synthesis, be mainly used in and make weedicide, agricultural chemicals and plastic working, can also be used for synthetic soporific, tranquilizer, and the tinting material of toxinicide, injection, solubility promoter and the printing and dyeing industry of vauqueline, Resorcino, also can be used as biochemical reagents, be used for biochemical research.Simultaneously, Urethylane is again the reaction raw materials of Synthesis of dimethyl carbonate.
Early stage Urethylane is mainly made by amine photoreactive gas or chloro-formic ester reaction, not only serious environment pollution and production cost costliness.In recent years, abroad developed in succession by carbon monoxide, alcohols and nitro-compound reaction and produced the Urethylane novel process, produce the Urethylane operational path from methylcarbonate and amine reaction, used catalyst system is mainly organic zinc, organotin or organic cobalt and sodium methylate, sodium ethylate, pyridine and indoles etc.On the one hand, these catalyst reaction temperatures>200 ℃, pressure 20~60atm, severe reaction conditions, the carbamate yield is low, poor selectivity; On the other hand, used reaction raw materials costliness, production cost exists the potential economy, and anti-market interference performance is poor.
Summary of the invention:
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of is raw material with urea and methyl alcohol, high yield, the method for synthesizing amino methyl-formiate cheaply.
The object of the present invention is achieved like this: with urea and methyl alcohol is raw material, in the presence of solid base catalyst, react the synthesizing amino methyl-formiate, and adopt novel reactor to be beneficial to react in time the ammonia that generates and shift out reaction system, thereby improve the yield of Urethylane.Synthetic method of the present invention comprises the steps:
Is 1-100 with methyl alcohol, urea and catalyzer by the molar ratio of methyl alcohol and urea: 1, the molar ratio of catalyzer and urea is 0.001-10: 1 adds in the reactor, at temperature 120-200 ℃, reaction pressure is to react under the condition of 0.1-3.0Mpa, pressure in the reactor is during greater than reaction pressure, the ammonia that reaction generates is discharged after condensation, is reclaimed, and the reaction times is 0.5h-20h.
Aforesaid catalyzer is the oxide compound of basic metal, alkaline-earth metal, comprises the oxide compound of Ca, Zn, K, Mg, Na, Pb etc.Decompose by coprecipitation method or corresponding metal salt or alkali and to form.
Catalyzer also may be the soild oxide that impregnated in one or more the above-mentioned metals on the carrier.Wherein carrier comprises various gacs, aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, molecular sieve etc.
The present invention compared with prior art has following advantage:
1) reaction raw materials is cheap and easy to get, and the selectivity of reaction product is higher, and by product is less, so the economy highly significant of building-up process;
2) reaction process is simple, easy handling, and catalyst performance repeatability is relatively good, realizes the industry amplification easily.
