Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the distillation of crude polymethylol, which is obtained in the preparation of polymethylols from alkanals and formaldehyde. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a composition containing polymethylol and 1 to 10,000 ppm by weight of an ester of polymethylol and a hydroxy acid and their use.
- Polymethylols such as neopentyl glycol (“NPG”) and trimethylolpropane (“TMP”), are used in the plastics industry for the production of paints, coatings, polyurethanes and polyesters.
- NPG neopentyl glycol
- TMP trimethylolpropane
- polymethylols are usually produced by the Cannizzaro process.
- n-butyraldehyde is reacted with an excess of formaldehyde in the presence of an inorganic base.
- one equivalent of an inorganic formate is formed as coproduct.
- the separation of the salt of trimethylolpropane is complicated and requires additional effort.
- the inorganic salt if it is to be utilized profitably, must be worked up and cleaned. Otherwise, the yields of this inorganic Cannizzaro reaction with respect to n-butyraldehyde are unsatisfactory, since in the course of the reaction high-boiling constituents are formed which do not pass on. can be evaluated.
- trimethylolpropane from n-propanal and formaldehyde
- trimethylolbutane from n-pentanal and formaldehyde
- neopentyl glycol from isobutyraldehyde and formaldehyde
- WO 98/28253 a multistage process for the preparation of polymethylols was known in the aldehydes having 2 to 24 carbon atoms in a first stage (aldol reaction) with formaldehyde using tertiary amines as a catalyst first to the corresponding Methylolalkanalen condensed and then hydrogenated in a further step (hydrogenation) to the corresponding polymethylols.
- This multi-step process is commonly referred to as a hydrogenation process. This process is co-product poor.
- the polymethylolalkanal is obtained by these processes as a 20 to 70% strength by weight aqueous solution.
- the polymethylolalkanal-containing solution is hydrogenated in a second step to react the polymethyolalkanals to the corresponding polymethylols, such as TMP or NPG.
- the reaction product from the hydrogenation is usually an aqueous polymethylol mixture which contains polymethylol, tertiary amine, water and organic secondary components, such as, for example, a tertiary amine adduct and formic acid (amine formate).
- the aqueous polymethylol mixture is therefore usually purified by separating low boilers from the polymethylol compound by distillation.
- the distillation effluent which is discharged from the bottom of the evaporator or from the circulation of the evaporator, contains predominantly the polymethylol compound. This bottoms discharge is referred to as "crude polymethylol" according to the present description.
- the crude polymethylol contains, in addition to the polymethylol compound, a significant amount of oxidation products of the dimethylolalkanals formed in the aldolysis, such as hydroxypivalic acid (HPS) from hydroxypivalaldehyde.
- HPS hydroxypivalic acid
- these acidic compounds can react with the polymethylol compounds in the distillation of crude polymethylol in the bottom of the column to esters. This usually leads to a yield loss of polymethylol compound.
- water is also released during the reaction. It has surprisingly been found that the water of reaction formed disturbs the condensation of the polymethylols, such as NPG.
- NPG becomes solid at about 139 ° C and the head temperature is therefore not freely adjustable.
- condensation is therefore usually carried out at temperatures of more than 139 ° C.
- water behaves almost inert and drags NPG out of the condenser, which further reduces the yield.
- the object of the present invention was therefore to provide a process for the distillation of crude polymethylol, in which the yield losses of polymethylol should be reduced by undesired esterification reactions and by removing polymethylol from the condenser, in order thus to increase the economy and efficiency of the process to improve.

- step a) alkanals are condensed in an aldol reaction with formaldehyde in the presence of tertiary amines as catalyst to methylolalkanals of the formula (II)
- Each R independently of one another has the meaning given in claim 1,
- step b) the reaction mixture obtained from stage a) is separated by distillation into a bottom which predominantly contains compounds of the formula (II) and a top stream which comprises low boilers, and the bottoms output in stage c) is discharged Stage b) hydrogenated and then in a stage d) the effluent from stage c) is distilled, the low boilers from the effluent from stage c) are separated.
- alkanals are generally reacted in an aldol reaction with formaldehyde in the presence of tertiary amines as catalyst.
- Formaldehyde is usually used as aqueous formaldehyde solution in the process.
- Technically available formaldehyde is usually sold in aqueous solution in concentrations of 30, 37 and 49 wt .-%. However, it is also possible to use formaldehyde solutions of up to 60 wt .-% in the process.
- formaldehyde usually contains formic acid due to its production.
- the decomposition products of formic acid can reduce the service life of the hydrogenation catalyst in the subsequent hydrogenation step, which can result in a reduction in the yield of polymethylols.
- formaldehyde is used which has a formic acid content of 150 ppm or less.
- Such a formaldehyde can be obtained by treating formaldehyde or an aqueous formaldehyde solution with basic ion exchangers, as described in application PCT / EP2008 / 052240.
- Suitable anion exchangers are known per se, strongly basic, weakly basic or medium basic gel or macroporous ion exchangers.

Very particular preference is given to trimethylamine (“TMA”), triethylamine (“TEA”) and tri-n-propylamine (“TPA”), since these compounds generally have a lower boiling point than the preferably formed polymethylols and thus the distillative removal Trimethylamine (“TMA”) is particularly preferably used as the tertiary amine in the reaction.
- the aldol reaction can be carried out with or without the addition of organic solvents or solubilizers.
- the addition of solvents or solubilizers may prove to be advantageous in particular when using long-chain alkanals as starting materials.

- alkanal such as hydroxypivalaldehyde (HPA)
- the separation of the discharge from the adol reaction should be such that the amount of methanol in the low-boiler stream is kept as low as possible so that the methanol concentration in the aldol reaction does not level up.
- Methanol is generally introduced via the aqueous formaldehyde solution which, depending on the preparation conditions, contains about 1 to 3% by weight of methanol.
- the boiling point of methanol is generally lower than that of the unreacted alkanal, so that methanol accumulates at the top of the column and thus leads to a leveling of the methanol concentration in the process. In order to keep the methanol concentration low, various measures can be taken.

- This is preferably carried out by selecting a bottom temperature above the evaporation temperature of the polymethylol formate in the distillation, so that the polymethylol formates are completely or largely completely converted by evaporation into the gas phase.
- the improvement in yield and product quality brought about by this measure is probably due to the fact that the polymethyol formates usually boil higher than the other low boilers and the polymethyol formates are therefore usually precipitated in the rectifying section of the columns at a corresponding reflux ratio.
- the polymethylol formates precipitated in the reinforcing part can be hydrolyzed with water to recover formic acid and the polymethylol compound.
