Abstract
Acrylic acid or a lower alkyl ester thereof is prepared by contacting a -chloro propionic acid or a lower alkyl ester thereof at a temperature of from 300 DEG to 650 DEG C. with a dehydrochlorination catalyst comprising at least a poly basic phosphate, sulphate or halide of a metal of Group II of the Periodic Table and lying above cadmium in the Electromotive series and recovering the resulting acrylic acid or ester thereof from the reaction product. The term "lower" denotes not more than 4 carbon atoms. The process is suitably carried out by passing preheated vaporised a -chloro-propionic acid compound down a heated column of catalyst and condensing the products from the gaseous effluent and fractionating the condensate; suitable apparatus is described. Examples illustrate the dehydrochlorination of a -chloropropionic acid to acrylic acid admixed with b -chloropropionic acid, which may be converted to acrylic acid in known manner, the dehydrochlorination catalyst being Ca3(PO4)2, BaCl2, Ba3(PO4)2, Mg3(PO4)2, CaSO4, BaSO4, BaF2, ZnCl2 on silica gel, and also CaSO4, calcium pyrophosphate, calcium chloride or Ca3(PO4)2 promoted by one or more of various of these compounds: LaPO4,CsH2PO4, BaTiO3, CsRb HPO4, CsPO3, CsPO4, Rb2SO4, Th3(PO4)4, CaCl2, Li2SO4, SrSO4, CeSO4, KPO3, NaCl and BaCl2, some of which compounds are themselves dehydrochlorination catalysts (see Group III). Calcium meta-phosphate is stated to have negligible catalytic effect.ALSO:Dehydrochlorination catalysts for use in the conversion of a -chlorpropionic acid and its lower alkyl esters to the corresponding acrylic compounds (see Group IV(b)) include calcium sulphate, calcium pyrophosphate, calcium chloride or tribasic calcium phosphate each promoted by one or more of various of the following promotors: LaHPO4, CsH2PO4, BaTiO3, CsRbHPO4, CsPO3, CePO4, Rb2SO4, Th3(PO4)4, CaCl2, Li2SO4, SrSO4, Ce2(SO4)3, KPO3, NaCl and BaCl2, the promotors being present in amounts of about 1 mol per 25 moles of the principal component. A preferred catalyst is prepared by mixing phosphoric acid with a wet slurry of calcium sulphate and LaCl3 or CeCl3 washing free from chloride ions, drying at 138 DEG C. and then granulating; an additional promotor such as KPO3 may be added after the washing step. Tribasic barium phosphate, also utilizable as a catalyst may be prepared by adding an aqueous solution of BaCl2 to an aqueous ammoniacal solution of (NH4)2PO4, washing the precipitate free from chloride ions, drying and then granulating.
