Abstract

PURPOSE:When crude diacetone alcohol resulting from dimerization of acetone in the presence of a condensation reaction catalyst, substantially all of the high-boiling substances are previously distilled off from the reaction mixture and the rectification is effected to inhibit the product from coloring with the passage of time. CONSTITUTION:Acetone is dimerized in the presence of a condensation catalyst. The reaction mixture or a concentrate thereof after removal of unreacting acetone (crude diacetone alcohol) 1 is distilled with a distillation of 5 or more theoretical plates, preferably at 50-300mmHg and bottom temperature of 60-150 deg.C, preferably 100-130 deg.C to separate the fraction 2 of higher boiling than the alcohol. Then, the distillate 3 is fed into a rectification column of 1 or more, preferably 5 or more theorectical plates and distilled under a pressure of 50-760mmHg at a bottom temperature of 50-150 deg.C to remove off the low- boiling fraction 6 whereby the purified diacetone alcohol of markedly reduced coloring is obtained.

Diacetone alcohol is prepared by converting acetone, for example in the presence of an alkaline substance. The desired reaction solution contains impurities such as mesityl oxide, water, isophorone, and holone in addition to acetone and diacetone alcohol. Therefore, a distillation method is generally adopted as a purification method to obtain purified diacetone alcohol from such a reaction liquid, in which low-boiling components are first removed from the reaction liquid using a low-boiling separation column, and then high-boiling components are removed from the reaction liquid using a high-boiling separation column. Product diacetone alcohol is obtained by removing boiling point components and simultaneously extracting diacetone alcohol from the top or side stream. Furthermore, in the purification method,
Diacetone alcohol has poor thermal stability, and when heated above 100°C, part of it dissociates into acetone, and part of it decomposes into mesityl oxide and water. Therefore, diacetone alcohol is usually distilled at temperatures below 100°C. Alternatively, diacetone alcohol is distilled at a temperature of 700° C. or higher in the presence of a slight acid (Japanese Patent Publication No. 31-6361).

However, although the high-purity diacetone alcohol obtained by the above-mentioned purification method is colorless and transparent immediately after purification, coloring gradually progresses during long-term storage of the product, degrading the quality of the product. Although the details of this phenomenon are not clear, it is thought that the coloring of the product is promoted by the action of trace impurities in diacetone alcohol.

As the condensation catalyst, a solid catalyst or an anion exchange resin catalyst, which is mainly composed of alkali metal or alkaline earth hydroxides combined with various binders, is mainly used. The condensation reaction of acetone is carried out using the above-mentioned catalyst according to a conventional method. For example, it is desirable to fill a flow-through reaction tube with the above catalyst and carry out the reaction at a low temperature, since the equilibrium of alcohol shifts toward acetone at high temperatures. The reaction solution thus obtained contained 10
