Traditionally, dioxybenzene monoalkyl ethers have been used to prepare dioxybenzenes (catechol, hydroquinone, resorcinol) and alkyl halides from water and hydrocarbons in the presence of alkali metal hydroxides, carbonates or bicarbonates. 1 at a temperature of 80 to 160°C under pressure in a mixed solvent of
It is known that it can be obtained by reacting for up to 10 hours. For example, in JP-A No. 49-24928, an attempt was made to suppress the by-product of dialkyl ethers (veratrol, diethoxybenzene, etc.) by using caustic soda and soda carbonate together as an alkali, and using water and toluene as solvents. However, the selectivity of monoalkyl ether is as low as 94-97%. Also, British Patent No. 127718
In Publication No. 6, triethanolamine or triethylamine is added to dioxybenzene in a ratio of 3.3 to 4.
Although the reaction was carried out by adding 8 mol %, the selectivity of the monoalkyl ether was still as low as 91 to 98%. In this way, in the conventional method, in addition to monoalkyl ether, a considerable amount of unintended dialkyl ether is produced as a by-product, and it is difficult to separate them, making it difficult to obtain high-purity dioxybenzene monoalkyl ether. There was a problem at the top. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an improved method that can obtain dioxypentyl monoalkyl ether with high selectivity, and furthermore, does not require the application of extraction and separation methods that involve complicated operations. Also, highly pure dioxybenzene monoalkyl ether can be obtained, and this invention is an extremely advantageous method industrially.
