Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the subject compound in high yield by adding acrylonitrile to a sodium hydrocyanate aqueous solution and subsequently stirring the solution in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst for a prescribed time. CONSTITUTION:Acrylonitrile in an amount of 0.5-1.0 mole (per mole of sodium hydrocyanate) is added to a sodium hydrocyanate aqueous solution (preferably having a concentration of 5-50wt.%) at 0-60 deg.C, preferably 10-50 deg.C, and stirred in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst (preferably a quaternary ammonium salt) in an amount of 0.01-5mol.% based on the acrylonitrile at the above- mentioned temperature for 1-5hr to gradually convert by-produced 3,3'- thiodipropionitrile into 3-mercaptopropionitrile, thereby providing the objective compound in high yield. The catalyst may be added to the aqueous solution preliminarily or just before the aging process and thereby can shorten the aging time 1/2 or less compared with a case of no addition.

Although the production process using hydrogen sulfide, sodium bisulfide, and the combination of sodium sulfide and sodium hydroxide is relatively simple, the by-product of 3,3"-thiodibropionitrile is unavoidable, and this causes - The yield of mercaptopropionitrile is insufficient at about 60-80%.
In the case of hydrogen sulfide, it is necessary to use a large excess of hydrogen sulfide relative to acrylonitrile and carry out the S reaction under pressure, which results in a complicated process when hydrogen sulfide recovery is included.

(Means for Solving Problem f) The present inventors investigated a method for producing 3-mercaptopropionitrile by reacting sodium bisulfide and acrylonitrile, which is inexpensive and easy to handle, and as a result, added acrylonitrile to an aqueous solution of sodium bisulfide. At the same time as 3-mercaptopropionitrile, a large amount of 3,3'-thiodibropionitrile was produced as a by-product.6 Surprisingly, however, when the reaction solution was continued to be stirred after acrylonitrile was added, 3,3''
It has been found that -thiodibrobionitrile is gradually converted to 3-mercaptopropionitrile and 3-mercaptopropionitrile can be obtained in high yield. Furthermore, 3,3 thiodibrobionitrile is insoluble in water, and the reaction solution immediately after adding acrylonitrile is separated into two layers. Therefore, the present inventors have discovered that when a phase transfer catalyst is added to the reaction solution, the conversion of 3.3'-thiodibrobionitrile to 3-mercaptopropionitrile can be completed in a short time, and the present invention has been completed.

That is, the present invention relates to a method for producing 3-mercaptopropionitrile by adding acrylonitrile to an aqueous sodium bisulfide solution.
This is a method for producing 3-mercaptopropionitrile, which is characterized by converting 3'-thiodipropionitrile into 3-mercaptopropionitrile in a short time.

The molar ratio of acrylonitrile to granulated sodium is preferably 0.5 to 1, although a small excess of sodium hydrosulfide of 0.8 to 1 is sufficient. When the molar ratio is higher than 1, 3,3''-thiodibrobionitrile does not disappear and remains even after orbiting, and when the molar ratio is lower than 0.5, a large amount of sodium bisulfide remains after the reaction and sulfides during neutralization. It is uneconomical because it is lost as hydrogen.

The concentration of the sodium hydrosulfide aqueous solution is preferably 5 to 50% by weight; if it is lower than 5%, the volumetric efficiency will be poor, and if it is higher than 50%, the viscosity of the reaction liquid will be high and stirring will be hindered.

However, the concentration of the sodium hydrosulfide aqueous solution has little effect on the effects of the present invention itself.

The temperature when adding acrylonitrile to the aqueous sodium hydrosulfide solution and during aging is preferably from 0 to 60°C, more preferably from 10 to 50°C. If the temperature is lower than 0°C, the reaction solution may solidify, which is not preferable.

The higher the temperature, the smaller the amount of 3,3゛-thiodibrobionitrile produced immediately after adding acrylonitrile.
Conversion of 3,3'-thiodiprobionitrile to 3-mercaptopropionitrile by orbital orbital is also fast, but at 60'C
If it is higher, the by-products of 3-mercaptopropionic acid and 3.3'-thiodipropionic acid due to the hydrolysis of nitrile will increase, and the yield of 3-mercaptopropionitrile will decrease, which is not preferable.

It is preferable to add acrylonitrile to the sodium hydrosulfide aqueous solution as fast as possible, as long as it does not interfere with keeping the reaction temperature between 0 and 60°C by removing the reaction heat.
It is usually suitably carried out within one hour. The amount of 3.3"-thiodipropionitrile by-product immediately after the addition of acrylonitrile is almost unaffected by the rate of addition of acrylonitrile, so the slower the addition rate, the longer the time required for production, which is undesirable. This shows that aging the reaction solution is an essential requirement for obtaining 3-mercaptopropionitrile in high yield.

The aging time is 3, immediately after adding acrylonitrile and bonding.
It took about 1 to 5 hours, depending on the amount of 3'-thiodiprobionitrile by-product and the orbital temperature, and the reaction solution was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography, and 3,3-thiodipropionitrile had almost completely disappeared. The end point is the point in time. 3.3'
If the ripening continues even after the -thiodiprobionitrile disappears, by-products such as 3-mercaptopropionic acid due to the hydrolysis of the nitrile will gradually increase, so the ripening time is preferably set to ~5 hours.

Suitable phase transfer catalysts include quaternary ammonium salts represented by hydroxides and chlorides such as trimethylbenzylammonium, tetraethylammonium, and tetrabutylammonium, which reduce the aging time to 1/1 of that without additives. It is shortened to 2 or less.

The amount of phase transfer catalyst added is 0.00% relative to acrylonitrile.
It is preferable to use an amount of 0.01 to 5 mol %, and if it is less than 0.01 mol %, a sufficient effect will not be exhibited, and if it is more than 5 mol %, the hydrolysis of the nitrile will be accelerated depending on the aging temperature, which is undesirable. The phase transfer catalyst can be added even just before ripening.
It may be added in advance to the aqueous sodium bisulfide solution before adding acrylonitrile.

After aging, 3-mercaptopropionitrile is present in the reaction solution as a sodium salt. 3-Mercaptopropionitrile can be isolated by a general method. First, add an acid to neutralize it, then extract the liberated 3-mercaptopropionitrile with an organic solvent, remove the solvent, and distill the extract. It is done by doing.

Comparative Example 2 The reaction was carried out in the same manner as in Example except that the aging time was 10 hours. Although 3.3thiodiprobionitrile was not detected in the reaction solution after ripening, by-products such as 3-mercaptopropionic acid due to nitrile hydrolyzate were as high as 11%, and 3-mercaptopropionitrile yield decreased.

Comparative Example 3 In Example 1, acrylonitrile was added dropwise at a reaction temperature of 70 to 75°C. Immediately after the dropwise addition, 17% of 33'-thiodibrobionitrile, 8% of 3-mercaptopropionic acid, and 3% of 3,3'-thiodipropionic acid were produced as by-products. After adding 1 g of tetraethylammonium chloride and aging at the same temperature for 1 hour, 3□3'thiodibrobionitrile was not detected, but there were many nitrile hydrolysates,
The yield of 3-mercaptopropionitrile was as low as 70%. The results are shown in Table 1.

In the production of mercaptopropionitrile, 3.3°
It was thought that it would be difficult to avoid the by-product of thiodiprobionitrile, but according to the present invention, thiodiprobionitrile, which is a by-product after ripening in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst, can be converted to the target product 3-
It can be converted to mercaptopropionitrile in a short time, and 3-mercaptopropionitrile is produced in high yield.
