Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a high-quality monochloroacetic acid having delicate color tone, capable of being heated or dissolved without causing the change in the quality with time, and suitable for a particular use such as the field relating in foods, etc., by treating monochloroacetic acid with hydrogen peroxide. CONSTITUTION:Monochloroacetic acid is treated with a hydrogen peroxide (about 0.05-1.0wt% in the form of a 20-50% aqueous solution, based on the monochloroacetic acid) at about 70-120 deg.C to obtain a refined monochloroacetic acid having higher quality than the original monochloroacetic acid. It is further effective to use the process for the treatment of monochloroacetic acid having a purity of about >=97%, e.g. a purified monochloroacetic acid obtained by removing easily removable impurities from a crude monochloroacetic acid by conventional method. The hydrogen peroxide is converted to water by the reaction, and gives no influences in the quality. EFFECT:Hydrogen peroxide is readily available and is disposable extremely easily.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for purifying monochloroacetic acid (hereinafter abbreviated as MCA). More specifically, the present invention relates to a method of obtaining MCA of better quality by adding water peroxide and hydrogen into the MCA to be treated.

MCA is generally produced commercially by chlorinating acetic acid. In this process, more or less by-products such as dichloro/dichloroacetic acid are produced, which are currently purified by, for example, distillation, crystallization, or hydrogenation, to meet the quality requirements required by industrial IVI CA. ing. However, even with these purification methods, there are still trace amounts of impurities whose true nature has not been fully elucidated1, and there remains the problem of obtaining high-quality MCA.

The inventors of the present invention have repeatedly investigated methods for obtaining high-quality MCA, and as a result, the present invention, which is completely different from the conventional method, has been developed, namely, the monochloroacetic acid method. We have discovered a method for purifying monochloroacetic acid that is characterized by obtaining high-quality molechloroacetic acid.

In principle, the target liquid to be treated in the present invention is
It can also be applied to monochloroacetic acid at the intermediate and final stages. However, when directly applied to MCA containing many impurities, such as crude MCA obtained from a reaction process, the amount of hydrogen peroxide added becomes large, which is not necessarily advantageous. It is more effective to apply the method to purified MCA obtained by refining crude MCA by a conventional method, which has a purity of about 97% or higher, which is separated from impurities that can be easily removed.
