Description

New process for producing 2-methyl-4-chloro-sodium phenoxyacetate
Technical Field
The invention relates to a new chemical production process, in particular to a new process for producing 2-methyl-4-chloro-phenoxyethylate.
Background
Sodium 2-methyl-4-chloro-phenoxyacetate, known by the trade name 2 methyl 4 chloro (MCPA), is one of the most commonly used herbicide species. The herbicide is widely used in cereal crop fields such as rice, wheat and corn, and can prevent and kill annual and perennial broadleaf weeds and sedge weeds, and is also commonly used for preventing and killing flax, sugarcane, peas, lawns and uncultivated land weeds.
At present, enterprises producing 2-methyl-4-chloro (MPCA), namely 2-methyl-4-chloro-sodium phenoxyacetate in China all adopt the traditional production process, and the traditional process has the following defects: (1) the yield of chlorination reaction products is only about 50 percent. (2) The product has low purity (about 60 percent), contains more impurities (NaCL), is easy to absorb moisture and agglomerate, has poor solubility, can not be directly used for the production of 2-methyl-4-chloramine and ester products, can not reach the export standard, and ensures that the development of the products is limited to a certain extent. (3) The content of phenol is too high, about 4 percent, and dust and odor are large during mixing, so that a mixer is easy to stick to the wall. (4) Excessive byproducts, such as the byproduct 2 methyl 6 chlorophenoxyacetic acid reaches 18 percent, have adverse effects on the growth of partial corn varieties and can not meet the development and utilization requirements of related products and compound preparations thereof. (5) In the production process, the discharge of three wastes is excessive, the content of harmful substances is too high, serious environmental pollution is caused, and adverse effects are brought to the living environment and sustainable development of people. (6) Unreasonable material ratio, low conversion rate and excessive material consumption, and seriously restrict the further development of enterprises. Therefore, the improvement of the traditional domestic process for producing the 2-methyl-4-chloro-sodium phenoxyacetate is urgently needed.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a new process for producing the 2-methyl-4-chloro-sodium phenoxyacetate, which has high product yield and high purity, can reduce the consumption rate of raw materials and has low discharge of three wastes.
In order to realize the purpose of the invention, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
the invention takes o-cresol, chloroacetic acid, sodium hydroxide and chlorine as main raw materials, and is obtained by acid-base neutralization reaction, chlorination reaction and etherification reaction, and is characterized in that: the steps of chlorination reaction and etherification reaction are adjusted, the etherification reaction is carried out firstly, and then the chlorination reaction is carried out, and the method specifically comprises the following steps:
(1) firstly, performing neutralization reaction, namely placing chloroacetic acid and sodium hydroxide in a storage tank in a molar ratio of 1: 1, reacting for 4-5 hours at normal temperature, and cooling by using an ammonia refrigeration compressor to obtain chloroacetate;
(2) then carrying out etherification reaction: placing o-cresol and sodium hydroxide into an etherification reactor in a molar ratio of 1: 1 for neutralization reaction, starting to dropwise add sodium chloroacetate for etherification reaction when sodium phenolate is completely generated, controlling the temperature between 125 and 140 ℃, and reacting for 8 to 10 hours to obtain 2-methyl-sodium phenoxyacetate;
(3) then carrying out chlorination reaction, feeding the 2-methyl-sodium phenoxyacetate into a chlorination reaction kettle, adding hydrochloric acid for acidification, adding a dichloroethane medium, introducing chlorine at 75-80 ℃, and reacting for 5-6 hours;
(4) finally preparing a salt product: and (3) putting all products obtained in the chlorination reaction in the step (3) into a salt forming reaction kettle, adding sodium hydroxide for neutralization, and reacting for 4-5 hours at the temperature of 100 ℃ to obtain the 2-methyl-chloro-sodium phenoxyacetate.
In the etherification reaction (2), the feeding molar ratio of sodium o-cresol to sodium chloroacetate is 1: 1.08.
Chlorine is introduced from the bottom of the reaction kettle in the chlorination reaction in the step (3), so that the method of introducing chlorine from the top of the reaction kettle in the traditional process is changed. The flow rate is 15kg/h when chlorine is introduced, the reaction end point is based on gas chromatography, and the chlorine introduction is stopped after a target object is obtained.
And (3) after the chlorination reaction is finished, introducing steam, heating to remove the dichloroethane as a medium, and cooling and recycling the dichloroethane.
The product 2-methyl-4-chloro-sodium phenoxyacetate obtained by the production process can be prepared into powder or aqueous solution; if the powder is produced, heating to remove water, then crushing and mixing; if the water aqua is produced, water is added in proportion for preparation.
And a condenser is arranged in each reaction kettle, and condenses the materials carried out from the tail gas and recycles the materials after recovery.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
(1) the consumption of raw materials is reduced: the cost of producing 2-methyl-4-chloro can be reduced by 0.35 ten thousand yuan per ton.
(2) The total yield of the product reaches more than 70 percent, the purity reaches more than 95 percent, and the product can be used for producing and developing 2-methyl-4-chloramine and ester series products, and all indexes of the product reach the standard through detection.
(3) The discharge amount of three wastes is obviously reduced, and the pollution to the environment is reduced. The process adopts circulating water in the production process, so that process wastewater is not discharged, and all water removed in the salt forming procedure is used for preparing the 2-methyl-4-chloro water agent.
(4) The new process adjusts the sequence of chlorination and etherification reactions, solves the problem of low conversion rate of the old process, the old process firstly chloridizes and then condenses, and adopts 10 percent (theoretical amount) of chlorine passing through the top, and the chlorine content in the material is measured to be 11 +/-0.5 percent, namely the material is qualified; meanwhile, the chlorine at the top only contacts the surface of the material, so the chlorination reaction effect is poor. The novel process adopts chlorine gas introduced from the bottom and adopts a gas chromatographic analysis method to determine the chlorine introduction amount, so that the chlorine introduction amount is accurate in the production process, ammonia gas directly enters the materials, and the chlorination effect is obviously improved; the old process has a chlorination conversion rate of only 70 percent, and the new process hasa conversion rate of 90 percent.
(5) The chlorination reaction of the new process adopts dichloroethane as a reaction medium, so that the utilization rate of chlorine is effectively improved, and the chlorination reaction speed is accelerated.
(6) The new process comprises etherification, chlorination and etherification reaction which are not added once, but are uniformly dripped, improves the accuracy of reaction conditions and greatly improves the yield of synthetic products.
(7) In the production process of the new process, the etherification, chlorination and salification are heating reactions, condensers are arranged on each reaction kettle in order to ensure that the reaction is a normal-pressure reaction, and when tail gas passes through the condensers, water in the condensers can condense materials brought out from the tail gas and can be recycled.
(8) The new process design completes the recycling of acid water, the whole internal circulation of materials, the utilization rate of raw materials is obviously improved, the unit consumption is reduced, and the problem that the old process is easy to cause environmental pollution due to the discharge of phenol-containing wastewater is solved.
(9) The new process improves the material pipeline, so that the material pipeline is more reasonable, the leakage of harmful materials is effectively avoided, the pollution to the environment is reduced, and the labor intensity is also reduced.
