【発明の詳細な説明】
(産業上の利用分野)
本発明はアルキレンアミン類の製法、特に酸化ニオブを
触媒として用いたアルキレンアミン類の製法に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to a method for producing alkylene amines, particularly to a method for producing alkylene amines using niobium oxide as a catalyst.
(従来の技術)
アルキレンアミン類、特に工業的に重要なエチレンアミ

ン及びピペラジン環含有の環状エチレンアミン類の生成

質のエチレンアミン類が得られる。この製造法は広〈実
施されているが、副生成物として多量の食塩が生じ、分
離及び処理に費用がかかるという問題点を有する。(Prior Art) As a method for producing alkylene amines, particularly ethylene amines which are industrially important, there is a method in which ethylene dichloride is reacted with ammonia. According to this production method, ethyleneamines of industrially preferable quality with less formation of piperazine and piperazine ring-containing cyclic ethyleneamines, that is, a high acyclic ratio, can be obtained. Although this production method is widely practiced, it has the problem that a large amount of common salt is produced as a by-product, and separation and treatment are expensive.
又、モノエタノールアミンを原料とし、水素と水素添加
触媒の存在下で、アンモニアを反応させるエチレンアミ

法ではエチレンジアミンを効率よく製造することは可能
であるが、ピベラジン環含有の品質的に好ましくない環

ポリエチレンポリアミン類を製造することが困難である
。Furthermore, a method for producing ethyleneamines using monoethanolamine as a raw material and reacting it with ammonia in the presence of hydrogen and a hydrogenation catalyst is also widely practiced. However, although it is possible to efficiently produce ethylenediamine using this method, it is difficult to produce high molecular weight polyethylene polyamines because a large amount of cyclic ethyleneamines containing piperazine rings, which are unfavorable in terms of quality, are produced. It is.

触媒寿命に問題がある。Collection operation is required. Therefore, methods for producing ethylene amines have been proposed in which various phosphates and supported phosphoric acids, which are unnecessary in the water-containing reaction solution, are used as catalysts. Japanese Patent Application Publication 1986-
41641 discloses a method for producing ethylene amines using a mb group metal phosphate such as lanthanum phosphate as a catalyst;
The publication discloses a method using phosphoric acid supported on titanium dioxide or the like as a catalyst. However, these phosphates and supported phosphoric acids have extremely low activity compared to free phosphoric acid, and even when these phosphoric acid-based catalysts are used, unfavorable cyclic amines and amino acids containing piperazine rings are produced. It is not possible to reduce hydroxyl group-containing amines such as ethylethanolamine to industrially satisfactory levels. By the way, phosphorus-containing ion exchange resins are highly active phosphorus-based catalysts, but these catalysts have poor heat resistance.
There is a problem with catalyst life.
