本発明はナフタリンジカルボン酸、特に2,6
−ナフタリンジカルボン酸を製造する方法に関す
るものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to naphthalene dicarboxylic acids, particularly 2,6
- A method for producing naphthalene dicarboxylic acid.
ナフタリンジカルボン酸は、高分子原料、染料

の製造原料として注目されている。 Naphthalene dicarboxylic acid is a compound useful as a polymer raw material, a dye intermediate, an industrial chemical, etc. Particularly in recent years, polyester produced from 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid and ethylene glycol has higher heat resistance and better heat resistance than polyethylene terephthalate.
Due to its excellent rigidity, it is attracting attention as a raw material for manufacturing films and fibers.
従来2,6−ナフタリンジカルボン酸の製造方

タリンを分離し、2,6−ナフタリンジカルボン
酸に酸化する方法が主として採られていた。 Conventional methods for producing 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid include naphthalene in which two chain alkyl groups containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, and isopropyl groups, are introduced into the naphthalene core through an alkylation reaction. The method mainly used is to separate 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene from a compound (hereinafter simply referred to as dialkylnaphthalene) and oxidize it to 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid.
しかしながらこのような公知の方法は中間体の
2,6−ジアルキルナフタリンの単離が著しく困

済的な製造法ではなかつた。 However, in such a known method, it is extremely difficult to isolate the intermediate 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene, and it is not an economical method for producing 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid.

との錯体を形成しこの錯体を単離して分解するな
どといつた繁雑な手段を採る必要があつた。 That is, when naphthalene is subjected to the above-mentioned normal alkylation reaction, chain alkyl groups are introduced into both the α-position and the β-position of the naphthalene nucleus, so dialkylnaphthalene becomes a mixture of many isomers, The content of 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene is low and generally remains below 20%. Since the boiling points of these dialkylnaphthalenes are close to each other, it is impossible to separate them by distillation, and the crystallinity of 2,6-dialkylnaphthalenes is not significantly different from other isomers. It is also difficult to crystallize and separate. Therefore, in order to isolate 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene, 2,6
- It was necessary to take complicated measures such as forming a complex between dialkylnaphthalene and nitrobenzoic acids, and then isolating and decomposing this complex.

ることを見い出し、本発明に到達した。 The present inventors have discovered a dicarboxylic acid which can be derived from naphthalene at low cost, has a particularly high selectivity for 2,6-substituted isomers, is easy to separate from other by-product isomers, and can be oxidized to naphthalene dicarboxylic acid. As a result of intensive research to develop substituted naphthalene derivatives, it was discovered that dicyclohexylnaphthalene, especially 2,6-dicyclohexylnaphthalene, satisfies all of these conditions, and the present invention was achieved.

That is, the present invention is a method for producing naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, which is characterized by oxidizing dicyclohexylnaphthalene.
