Abstract

PURPOSE:To recover unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether in high efficiency from a reaction mixture produced by the chloromethylation of an aromatic compound in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst, by washing the reaction mixture with concentrated mineral acid to remove the catalyst and distilling the washed mixture. CONSTITUTION:An aromatic compound is made to react with chloromethyl methyl ether in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst to obtain an aromatic chloromethyl compound. In the above process, the reaction mixture containing the aromatic chloromethyl compound and unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether is washed with a concentrated mineral acid (especially preferably concentrated hydrochloric acid) to remove the Friedel-Crafts catalyst and the washed mixture is distilled to recover the unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether, which is reused in the reaction. Expensive chloromethyl methyl ether can be used while preventing the decomposition and the cost of chloromethylation can be reduced. The chloromethylated aromatic compound is useful as an intermediate raw material for pharmaceuticals, dyes, ion exchange resins, quaternary ammonium salt of hydrophilic polymer, etc.

In the above reaction, in order to suppress side reactions such as gelation and obtain the desired chloromethyl compound with high purity and high yield, it is necessary to use an excess of chloromethyl methyl ether. The larger the amount, the better the lolomethyl compound can be obtained. However, when attempting to recover unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether by distillation after carrying out a reaction using a large amount of chloromethyl methyl ether, there is a problem in that the reaction product undergoes a dehydrochloric acid reaction and turns into a gel. Conventionally, when purifying and isolating the desired reaction product by distillation, etc., the reaction mixture containing the reaction product and unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether was washed by adding water or a mixture of water and geohysanate, etc. ,
Unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether has to be decomposed and removed, and unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether cannot be recovered and reused because it is an expensive raw material. This is a huge problem in terms of manufacturing costs. Therefore, carrying out the reaction using a large excess of chloromethyl methyl ether is difficult due to production costs, even if a highly pure chloromethyl compound can be obtained. At the cost of reducing the amount of chloromethyl methyl ether used to 3% of the required amount.
Currently, chloromethylation is carried out at about 5 times the amount.

On the other hand, in order to solve the above problem, it has been proposed to use an aromatic halide obtained by reacting an aromatic compound with a halogen instead of an aromatic chloromethyl compound (Japanese Patent Publication No. 52-22992). . However, in the method of reacting aromatic compounds with halogen, there are problems such as the formation of many side reaction products due to lack of selectivity in the reaction position of halogen, which requires many purification steps. Although using aromatic halides as they are without purification as a substitute for methyl compounds has some advantages in terms of manufacturing costs, it is not preferable in terms of product properties.

In view of the above points, the present inventors conducted intensive research to develop a method for recovering unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether during chloromethylation of aromatic compounds, and as a result, the reaction product and unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether were recovered. It was discovered that the reason why a reaction mixture containing the reaction product and unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether gelled by distillation was due to the presence of Friedelkrach's catalyst. By washing with concentrated mineral acid, the Friedelkrach catalyst can be removed without decomposing unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether, and chloromethyl methyl ether can be easily recovered by distillation without gelation. The inventors have discovered that this can be done, and have completed the present invention.

As explained above, the method of the present invention involves a reaction involving an aromatic chloromethyl compound obtained by reacting an aromatic compound and chloromethyl methyl ether in the presence of a Friedel Krach catalyst and unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether. Unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether in chloromethylation of aromatic compounds can be efficiently recovered and reused by washing the mixture with concentrated mineral acid to remove Friedelkrach's catalyst and then distilling it. As a result, it is possible to solve the production cost problems such as decomposition and removal of expensive lolomethyl methyl ether with water or the like, and it is possible to produce aromatic chloromethyl compounds at low cost. In addition, unreacted chloromethyl methyl ether can be recovered and reused, so even if chloromethyl methyl ether is used in large excess relative to aromatic compounds, there is almost no increase in cost, and chloromethyl methyl ether can be used in large excess. When used as an intermediate raw material for pharmaceuticals, dyes, ion exchange resins, hydrophilic polymer quaternary ammonium salts, etc., aromatic chloromethyl compounds of high purity can be obtained in high yields. There is no possibility of deterioration of product properties due to mixing of many side reactants such as aromatic halides, which were used as substitutes for methyl compounds, and are suitable for pharmaceuticals, dyes, ion exchange resins, and hydrophilic products. This method has extremely excellent effects such as being able to provide an aromatic chloromethyl compound useful as an intermediate raw material for polymeric quaternary ammonium salts and the like at a low cost.
