【表】DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is characterized by catalytic reduction of 2-imidazolidinone and formaldehyde or paraformaldehyde using a hydrogenation catalyst in the presence of a solid acid. The present invention relates to a method for producing 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone. 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone is
It occupies an important position as a polar aprotic solvent, and has a wide range of uses such as solvents for organic synthesis reactions, solvents for polymer compounds, and extraction solvents for aromatic hydrocarbons and unsaturated hydrocarbons during petroleum refining. It is an extremely useful compound. The following methods are known as conventional methods for producing 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone. (1) Method described in U.S. Patent No. 2,422,400 (a) Step of producing and separating methylol intermediate from 2-imidazolidinone and formaldehyde in a basic atmosphere, (b) After adjusting the pH of the reaction solvent , a step of catalytic reduction using a catalyst, Part 2
Requires a process. (2) Method described in JP-A-52-71419 2-imidazolidinone and formaldehyde
Hydrogenate in an acidic atmosphere with pH 3 to 5 to produce 1,3
A method for producing -dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone in one step has been developed. Unexamined Japanese Patent Publication 1972-
Although the substance for making the reaction solution acidic is not specified in Publication No. 71419 and is unclear, Example 1 describes a method for adjusting the reaction solution to pH 3 by adding phosphoric acid. In order to carry out this method, a corrosion-resistant reactor is required, and furthermore, after the reaction is completed, salts are generated by neutralizing the reaction solution and are difficult to separate. (3) Method described in JP-A-53-98965 In the presence of an acidic substance, 1,3-bis(hydroxymethyl)- or 1,3-bis(alkoxymethyl)-2-imidazolidinone is hydrogenated as a catalyst. A method for catalytic reduction using
However, in order to produce the raw material 1,3-bis(hydroxymethyl)- or 1,3-bis(alkoxymethyl)-2-imidazolidinone, 2-imidazolidinone and A methylolization process must be performed from formaldehyde, which is essentially a two-stage reaction. Furthermore, since the catalytic reduction is carried out in the presence of an acidic substance at a pH of 3 or less, a corrosion-resistant device is required as in JP-A-52-71419, and there is the problem of separation of salts produced by neutralization after the reaction is completed. occurs. As mentioned above, the conventional method is 1,3-dimethyl-
This method was not satisfactory as an industrial method for producing 2-imidazolidinone. The present inventors have conducted extensive research to establish a method for producing 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone from 2-imidazolidinone in one step and under mild conditions that are industrially possible. They discovered that a specific solid acid was effective and completed the present invention. That is, in the present invention, 2-
The present invention relates to a method for producing 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone, which comprises catalytically reducing imidazolidinone and formaldehyde or paraformaldehyde using a hydrogenation catalyst. The solid acid used in the present invention is obtained by firing sulfate ions and alumina, or sulfate ions, phosphate ions, and alumina. The ratio of each atom constituting the solid acid is: in the case of sulfate ions and alumina, S/Al is 0.01 to 0.06; in the case of sulfate ions, phosphate ions, and alumina,
(P+S)/Al is 0.2 without 0.02, S/P is 0.02
or 0.8. If the atoms constituting the solid acid are within this range, a solid acid with good activity and selectivity can be obtained. To prepare the solid acid of the present invention, alumina is added to an aqueous solution containing sulfate ions or sulfate ions and phosphate ions, which is obtained by dissolving sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, or their aluminum or ammonium salts in water. Mix well, dry, and then bake.

It is. The solid acid of the present invention does not generate any sulfur compounds during firing, and it is confirmed from the weight of the fired product that sulfur compounds and phosphorus compounds are incorporated into the solid acid composition. Moreover, even if this solid acid was boiled with 4 times the amount of water for 2 hours, filtered and washed with water 5 times, and then calcined at a high temperature of 900°C for 3 hours, the activity in this reaction remained. It was possible to reuse this solid acid in the reaction of the present invention five times without deterioration. That is,
It is thought that there is almost no desorption of sulfur and phosphorus compounds from the solid acid due to heat, water washing, etc. A characteristic effect of the present invention is that the reaction is carried out in a neutral state with a pH of 6 to 7.
Since the pH of the reaction solution during and after the reaction is near neutral, there is no fear of corrosion of the reaction equipment, and there is no need to neutralize after the reaction. Therefore, after the completion of the reaction, high purity 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone can be obtained by a simple operation of filtering out the solid acid and hydrogenation catalyst from the reaction solution and distilling them. After the reaction, the solid acid and hydrogenation catalyst recovered by filtration can be reused as they are in the next reaction without being separated, so the method of the present invention is industrially very advantageous.
