Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of nitrilation in the gas phase and mixed liquid-gas phase from fatty acid esters or fatty acids implementing a specific solid catalyst based on a mixture of metal oxides.
- the invention also relates to a specific catalyst, its method of preparation and its use.
- nitriles and / or fatty amines from fatty acids extracted from vegetable or animal oils are known. This process is described in the Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia Vol 2, 4 ° Edition, page 411.
- the fatty amine is obtained in several stages.
- the first step consists of methanolysis or hydrolysis of a vegetable oil or an animal fat respectively producing the methyl ester of a fatty acid or a fatty acid.
- the methyl ester of the fatty acid can then be hydrolysed to form the fatty acid.
- the fatty acid is converted to nitrile by reaction with ammonia, and finally to amine by hydrogenation of the nitrile thus obtained.
- the invention relates to a method for the nitrilation of the acid function or the ester function, depending on the reagent used, optionally unsaturated.
- the reaction scheme for the synthesis of nitriles from a fatty acid can be summarized as follows:
- nitrilation means a reaction between a fatty acid or a fatty acid ester and ammonia leading to the conversion of the function C0 2 H or C0 2 R, respectively, in CN function. This nitrilation reaction is also called ammoniation because this reaction involves ammonia.
- the fatty acid or a mixture of fatty acids is charged with a catalyst, which is generally a metal oxide, and most frequently zinc oxide.
- the reaction medium is brought to about 150 ° C. with stirring, and ammonia gas is then introduced.
- an ammonium salt or ammonium soap is formed.
- the temperature of the reaction medium is then raised to around 250 ° C.-300 ° C., still under the introduction of ammonia.
- the ammonium salt is converted to amide with release of a first molecule of water.
- the amide is transformed into nitrile with formation of a second molecule of water.
- This formed water is continuously removed from the reactor by driving unreacted ammonia and some of the lighter fatty chains.
- Liquid phase processes using batch reactors, require very long reaction times, especially several hours.
- the feed is vaporized and brought into contact with ammonia, the temperature of which is between 250 ° C and 600 ° C, in the presence of a catalyst.
- This catalyst is generally chosen from the family of metal oxides consisting of metal oxides, taken alone or as a mixture, such as Zr, Ta, Ga In, Se, Nb, Hf, Fe, Zn, Sn or alumina. , an oxide of thorium, and in particular doped alumina.
- the gas phase processes are carried out continuously at a temperature of the order of 300 ° C., and under these conditions the contact times are of the order of a few seconds on the catalyst. However, as soon as the temperature decreases, with the known catalysts, the conversions fall, and it is then necessary to increase the average contact time to find high conversions.
- the Applicant observed that the nitrilation stage played an important role, especially when it was carried out on a ⁇ -unsaturated acid. Indeed, the lo calization of the double bond at the end of the chain and therefore poorly protected, leads to the formation of isomers as a result of displacement of the double bond. Having observed these phenomena, she found that this disadvantage could be largely limited by working with the ester rather than the corresponding acid which made it possible to operate in "softer" conditions. Since the boiling point of the ester is lower than that of the corresponding acid, it is possible to reach higher vapor pressures with the ester. In addition, by operating in a reactor operating continuously, either in the gas phase or in the mixed liquid-gas phase, the residence time of the reactants in contact with the catalysts being much smaller than in the conventional liquid phase (batch) allows limit isomerization during the process.
- the aim is to obtain a process leading to an excellent conversion rate, with an excellent yield, by reducing the content of by-products resulting from the migration of the double bond, when the reagent used is unsaturated, decreasing the by-product content resulting from the methylation of the intermediate amide, when the reagent used is a methyl ester, and to reduce the content of intermediate amide.

- the invention relates to the process for the preparation of this catalyst as well as the use of this catalyst in nitrilation processes.
- any range of values designated by the expression "between a and b" represents the range of values from more than a to less than b (i.e., excluding terminals a and b), while that any range of values designated by the expression “from a to b” means the range of values from a to b (that is, including the strict limits a and b).

- temperature ranging from 1 80 to 400 ° C in the presence of a solid catalyst comprising at least one metal oxide, the metal of which belongs to column 8 of the periodic table in admixture with at least one metal oxide chosen from oxides of aluminum, zirconium oxides, niobium oxides, tantalum oxides and tin oxides, the metal oxide or oxides, the metal of which belongs to column 8 being present in a volume ratio of 0.1 at 0.6 relative to the volume of the mixture of all the oxides.
- the reagents of the nitrilation process according to the invention may be fatty acids or esters, optionally unsaturated, preferably ⁇ -unsaturated.
- fatty is understood to mean an acid or an ester comprising a carbon chain, saturated or unsaturated, linear having from 8 to 36 carbon atoms.
- acids and esters which are useful for the process of the invention are of the following formula:
- n the integer 7 or 8

- the rate of introduction of the acid is such that the average contact time of the liquid phase in the reactor is less than 1 hour, and preferably less than 30 minutes.

- the gaseous stream and the liquid flow are descending, or in countercurrent, the gaseous flow being ascending and the liquid flow descending.
- the countercurrent version, rising gas and descending acid may be particularly advantageous for limiting the hydrolysis of the formed nitrile.
- the ammonia is injected in the foot, the water and the alcohol come out at the head, the acid enters the head and the nitrile comes out in the foot. So in the foot, it has a high concentration of nitrile and ammonia and at the head a high concentration of water and alcohol, and less ammonia.
