Abstract

Procédé d'obtention de quantités équimolaires de phénol et de formaldéhyde à partir du toluène. Il consiste à oxyder le toluène avec de l'oxygène ou de l'air, à température et pression élevées, en phase liquide, en présence d'anhydride acétique et d'un catalyseur fortement acide, de MoO 3 et/ou d'un initiateur tel qu'un composé persulfurique ou complexe de dithiosemibenzile avec un métal du groupe VIII, ce qui donne de l'acétate de phényle et du diacétate de méthylène, que l'on pyrolyse séparément pour obtenir respectivement du phénol et du formaldéhyde. Ce procédé permet de récupérer le groupe méthyle du toluène sous forme de produit intéressant, le formaldéhyde, au lieu qu'il se transforme en CO2 .Process for obtaining equimolar quantities of phenol and formaldehyde from toluene. It consists in oxidizing toluene with oxygen or air, at high temperature and pressure, in the liquid phase, in the presence of acetic anhydride and a strongly acidic catalyst, MoO 3 and / or a initiator such as a persulfuric compound or complex of dithiosemibenzil with a metal of group VIII, which gives phenyl acetate and methylene diacetate, which are pyrolyzed separately to obtain phenol and formaldehyde, respectively. This process makes it possible to recover the methyl group of toluene in the form of an interesting product, formaldehyde, instead of transforming it into CO2.
