Description

本発明は、高重合性N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体の製造方法に関する。さらに詳しくは、重合性が改善されたN−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体の生産性を高く製造する方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a highly polymerizable N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing a highly productive N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer having improved polymerizable properties.

N−ビニルカルボン酸アミドから誘導されるN−ビニルカルボン酸アミドポリマーは水溶性高分子であり、水だけでなく、アルコールやジメチルスルホキシド(DMSO)といった極性溶媒にも溶解する。そして、非イオン性ポリマーであるため塩やpHの影響を受けず、また耐候性が高く、特に熱に対する安定性が高いという特性を有する。これらの特性を活かし、工業的には、バインダーや分散剤、粘着剤・接着剤、増粘剤、凝集剤などに応用されている。 The N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide polymer derived from N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide is a water-soluble polymer and is soluble not only in water but also in polar solvents such as alcohol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Since it is a nonionic polymer, it is not affected by salts and pH, has high weather resistance, and is particularly stable against heat. Taking advantage of these characteristics, it is industrially applied to binders, dispersants, pressure-sensitive adhesives / adhesives, thickeners, coagulants, and the like.

N−ビニルカルボン酸アミドの製造方法については、これまで多くの方法が提案されている。例えば、カルボン酸アミド、アセトアルデヒド、アルコールを原料として中間体となるN−(1−アルコキシエチル)カルボン酸アミドを製造し、その後、熱分解または接触分解により合成する方法などである。
このN−ビニルカルボン酸アミドの合成反応中には、N−ビニルカルボン酸アミドの他に、未反応のN−(1−アルコキシエチル)カルボン酸アミドやカルボン酸アミドなどの中間体が含まれる。これらの化合物は沸点、蒸気圧、溶解度などの物性がN−ビニルカルボン酸アミドと近く、N−ビニルカルボン酸アミドを蒸留精製することは困難であった。そこで、N−ビニルカルボン酸アミドの精製方法についても、提案がされている。
Many methods have been proposed for the production of N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide. For example, a method of producing an N- (1-alkoxyethyl) carboxylic acid amide as an intermediate from a carboxylic acid amide, acetaldehyde, or alcohol as a raw material, and then synthesizing it by thermal cracking or catalytic cracking.
In this synthesis reaction of N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide, in addition to N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide, intermediates such as unreacted N- (1-alkoxyethyl) carboxylic acid amide and carboxylic acid amide are included. These compounds have similar physical properties such as boiling point, vapor pressure, and solubility to N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide, and it has been difficult to distill and purify N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide. Therefore, a method for purifying N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide has also been proposed.

特許2619204号では、圧力晶析による精製方法が開示されており、高重合性を示すN−ビニルカルボン酸アミドが比較的高純度で得られる。しかし、この方法は設備投資が大きく、工業的には大規模生産でないと安価に製品を提供できない問題がある。また、特許5126764号では、アルコールと脂肪族炭化水素による溶媒晶析法が開示されている。しかし、この溶媒の組み合わせは貧溶媒の使用量が多く、容積効率が低いため生産性が悪い。
またN−ビニルカルボン酸アミドの重合阻害物質として、特許第4099831号公報ではN−1,3−ブタジエニルカルボン酸アミドが、国際公開第17/145569号では不飽和アルデヒドが特定されているが、上記を取り除いてもなお良好な重合性が得られないケースがあった。
Patent No. 2619204 discloses a purification method by pressure crystallization, and N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide exhibiting high polymerization property can be obtained with relatively high purity. However, this method requires a large capital investment, and there is a problem that it is not possible to provide products at low cost unless it is industrially produced on a large scale. Further, Japanese Patent No. 51267664 discloses a solvent crystallization method using an alcohol and an aliphatic hydrocarbon. However, this combination of solvents uses a large amount of poor solvent and has low volumetric efficiency, resulting in poor productivity.
Further, as a polymerization inhibitor of N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide, N-1,3-butadienylcarboxylic acid amide is specified in Japanese Patent No. 4099831, and unsaturated aldehyde is specified in International Publication No. 17/145569. In some cases, even if the above was removed, good polymerizable property could not be obtained.

Further, the present invention is to produce a high-molecular-weight N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide polymer using the produced N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer.

They have found that it is possible to produce a carboxylic acid amide monomer, and have completed the present invention.

The method for carrying out the present invention includes the following steps.
A crude N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer crystal containing 85 to 99% by mass of an N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer is dissolved in a mixed solvent of ethyl acetate and an aliphatic hydrocarbon having 6 to 7 carbon atoms. After that, solvent crystallization is performed, solid-liquid separation is performed, and a purified N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer is recovered.

なお、本明細書において、「粗N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体」とは、N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体からなる成分とともに、不純物を含むことを意味し、すなわち「精製されていない」N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体である。 In addition, in this specification, a "crude N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer" means that it contains an impurity together with a component composed of an N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer, that is, "not purified". It is an N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer.

N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体は、例えばN−ビニルホルムアミド、N−ビニルアセトアミド、N−メチル−N−ビニルアセトアミド、N−ビニルベンズアミド、N−ビニル−N−メチルホルムアミド、N−ビニル−N−エチルホルムアミド、N−ビニル−N−エチルアセトアミド、N−ビニルピロリドンが挙げられる。好ましくは、N−ビニルアセトアミドである。 The N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer is, for example, N-vinylformamide, N-vinylacetamide, N-methyl-N-vinylacetamide, N-vinylbenzamide, N-vinyl-N-methylformamide, N-vinyl-N. -Ethylformamide, N-vinyl-N-ethylacetamide, N-vinylpyrrolidone can be mentioned. Preferably, it is N-vinylacetamide.

上記粗N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体は、いずれの製造方法によって得たものでもよい。例えば、カルボン酸アミド、アセトアルデヒドおよびアルコールからN−(1−アルコキシエチル)カルボン酸アミドを合成し、これを熱分解または接触分解して得たものであってもよい(特開昭50−76015号公報参照)。また、カルボン酸アミドとアセトアルデヒドとからエチリデンビスカルボン酸アミドを合成し、これを熱分解して得たものであってもよい(特開昭61−106546号公報参照)。
粗N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体に含まれるN−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体以外のものとしては、主に、N−(1−アルコキシエチル)カルボン酸アミド、カルボン酸アミド、炭素数1〜5のアルコールなどが含まれ、これらは、N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体の製造方法などに由来する不純物である。
The crude N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer may be obtained by any production method. For example, N- (1-alkoxyethyl) carboxylic acid amide may be synthesized from carboxylic acid amide, acetaldehyde and alcohol, and this may be obtained by thermal cracking or catalytic cracking (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 50-76015). See publication). Further, it may be obtained by synthesizing an ethylidenebis carboxylic acid amide from a carboxylic acid amide and acetaldehyde and thermally decomposing it (see JP-A-61-106546).

It is desirable to include it in%. When the N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer is contained in this range, the recovery rate of the N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer can be increased, and the obtained N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer is pure. Is high and is desirable because it exhibits excellent polymerizable properties. When the amount of the N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer contained in the crude N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer is in the range of 50 to 85% by mass, it is appropriately subjected to operations such as crystallization, distillation, and extraction. The content of the N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer may be adjusted. Further, by such an operation, the insoluble component in the crude N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer can be removed in advance.

通常、公知の製造方法で得られる粗N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体中のN−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体の含有量の上限は、前記範囲にあるが、この上限より高い粗N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体を本発明の製造方法で処理しても、N−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体の精製物を得ることは可能である。 Usually, the upper limit of the content of the N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer in the crude N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer obtained by a known production method is in the above range, but is higher than this upper limit. It is also possible to obtain a purified product of the N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer by treating the vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer by the production method of the present invention.

The recrystallization of the N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer is recovered to produce a purified N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer.

溶媒晶析工程で析出したN−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体の再結晶を効率よく分離する方法としては、ろ過による分離が好ましい。ろ過による方法に制限はないが、晶析母液との分離や生産性の観点で、遠心分離ろ過や加圧ろ過などが好ましい。また、ろ過後にリンズを行うことも母液との分離性を向上させる上で好ましい。リンズに用いる溶媒としては、晶析溶媒と同様の酢酸エチルと炭素数6〜7の脂肪族炭化水素が好ましい。リンズに使用する酢酸エチルの質量は、工程(A)から回収したN−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体結晶の質量に対し、0.01〜0.3の比率で使用することが好ましく、より好ましくは0.01〜0.2、さらに好ましくは0.02〜0.1である。また、リンズに使用する炭素数6〜7の脂肪族炭化水素の質量は工程(A)から回収したN−ビニルカルボン酸アミド単量体結晶の質量に対し、0.1〜3.0の比率で使用することが好ましく、より好ましくは0.1〜2.0、さらに好ましくは0.1〜1.5が好ましい。 As a method for efficiently separating the recrystallization of the N-vinylcarboxylic acid amide monomer precipitated in the solvent crystallization step, separation by filtration is preferable.

It is also preferable to perform rinsing after filtration in order to improve the separability from the mother liquor. As the solvent used for the lins, ethyl acetate and an aliphatic hydrocarbon having 6 to 7 carbon atoms, which are the same as the crystallization solvent, are preferable.

合成例1と同様にして得られたメタノールを除去した後の粗N−ビニルアセトアミド単量体100gに対して、冷却晶析を実施せずに、酢酸エチル20g、メチルシクロヘキサン110gを加えて40℃に加熱して溶解後、7時間で5℃に冷却することで溶媒晶析を実施したが、さらに1時間掛けて0℃に冷却しても結晶の析出が見られず、N−ビニルアセトアミド単量体を得ることが出来なかった。
[Comparative Example 2]
To 100 g of the crude N-vinylacetamide monomer obtained in the same manner as in Synthesis Example 1 after removing methanol, 20 g of ethyl acetate and 110 g of methylcyclohexane were added without performing cooling crystallization to 40 ° C. Solvent crystallization was carried out by heating to 5 ° C. for 7 hours after dissolution, but no crystal precipitation was observed even when cooled to 0 ° C. over an additional 1 hour, and N-vinylacetamide was simply used. I couldn't get the monomer.

[比較例3]
溶媒晶析において、酢酸エチルを20g用い、メチルシクロヘキサンを使用しない以外は、実施例3と同様にしてN−ビニルアセトアミド単量体の再結晶を析出させた。溶媒量が少なく、スラリーの流動性がかなり悪化したが、N−ビニルアセトアミド単量体の再結晶を遠心分離ろ過器へ移送し、遠心分離ろ過器を用い固液分離を行い、その後に酢酸エチル1g/メチルシクロヘキサン25gにてリンズを行い、再結晶を回収した。得られた精製物は33gで、純度が99.7質量%であった。重合性試験の結果は、110分であった。
[Comparative Example 3]
In solvent crystallization, recrystallization of N-vinylacetamide monomer was precipitated in the same manner as in Example 3 except that 20 g of ethyl acetate was used and methylcyclohexane was not used. Although the amount of solvent was small and the fluidity of the slurry deteriorated considerably, the recrystallization of the N-vinylacetamide monomer was transferred to a centrifuge filter, solid-liquid separation was performed using the centrifuge filter, and then ethyl acetate. The recrystallization was recovered by rinsing with 1 g / 25 g of methylcyclohexane. The obtained purified product weighed 33 g and had a purity of 99.7% by mass. The result of the polymerizable test was 110 minutes.

[比較例4]
溶媒晶析において、使用量を酢酸エチル31g、メチルシクロヘキサン208gを使用したため、晶析装置を大きくする必要が生じて、容積効率が4分の1に大きく低下した。それ以外は、実施例1と同様にしてN−ビニルアセトアミド単量体の再結晶を析出させた。溶媒使用量が多いため、N−ビニルアセトアミド単量体の再結晶を含む析出液を遠心分離ろ過器へ分割投入して、遠心分離ろ過器を用い固液分離を行い、その後に酢酸エチル1g/メチルシクロヘキサン25gにてリンズを行い、再結晶を回収した。得られた精製物は44g、純度99.7質量%であった。重合性試験の結果は、112分であった。
晶析条件および評価結果を合わせて表1に示す。
[Comparative Example 4]
Since 31 g of ethyl acetate and 208 g of methylcyclohexane were used in the solvent crystallization, it became necessary to increase the size of the crystallization apparatus, and the volumetric efficiency was greatly reduced to one-fourth. Other than that, recrystallization of the N-vinylacetamide monomer was precipitated in the same manner as in Example 1. Since the amount of solvent used is large, the precipitate containing the recrystallization of N-vinylacetamide monomer is divided and charged into a centrifuge filter, solid-liquid separation is performed using the centrifuge filter, and then 1 g of ethyl acetate / g / The recrystallization was recovered by rinsing with 25 g of methylcyclohexane. The obtained purified product was 44 g and had a purity of 99.7% by mass. The result of the polymerizable test was 112 minutes.
The crystallization conditions and evaluation results are also shown in Table 1.
