Definitions

  • the invention relates to the electrolytic condensation of carboxylic acids which is known under the name Kolbe synthesis.
  • Electrolytic condensation of carboxylic acids is a method for reacting substituted or unsubstituted carboxylic acids with elimination of carbon dioxide according to the equation:
  • R denotes an alkyl radical which may bear carboxyalkyl groups or acylated amino groups as substituents.
  • a high current density may be used in which case a high degree of neutralization is required to achieve adequate cell voltages, i.e., a considerable proportion of the acid has to be neutralized prior to electrolysis so that the solution has adequate conductance. It is also possible to be content with a low degree of neutralization but then high current densities cannot be used. In the former case it is comparatively difficult to process the reaction mixture because a small amount of reaction product has to be separated from a large amount of salt. In the second case long reaction periods have to be accepted.
  • Degree of neutralization is defined as the molar proportion of the organic carboxylic acid which is neutralized with a base prior to electrolysis in order to achieve the necessary conductance in the electrolysis system.
  • the process is particularly important for the production of diesters of sebacic acid from hemiesters of adipic acid, particularly the methyl or ethyl esters, and for the synthesis of N,N'- diacetyl-decamethylenediamine from epsilonacetylaminocaproic acid, of 1,10-dibromodecane from omega-bromocaproic acid and of octane-2,7-dione from lawlinic acid.
  • Electrochemical condensation is carried out using solvents, for example water, but preferably using nonaqueous solvents such as lower alcohols, for example those having one to four carbon atoms such as methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol and isopropanol, or N,N-dialkylamides of lower alkanedicarboxylic acids, for example those having one to five carbon atoms whose alkyl radicals contain not more than three carbon atoms, particularly dimethylformamide, diethylformamide, dimethylacetamide or diethylacetamide, or using N-methylpyrrolidone, or a mixture of solvents with or without water. Generally 10 to 20 percent by weight solutions of the carboxylic acids to be electrolyzed are used.
  • the degree of neutralization is adjusted by adding bases prior to electrolysis. It is kept at less than 10 percent and preferably at only 2 to 5 percent.
  • the bases used may be aqueous alkalies such as caustic soda solution, caustic potash solution, sodium or potassium carethylate, sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate; in all cases, ammonia or bases having adequate basicity such as dimethylamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine or alkanolamines such as dimethylethanolamine or morpholine, may also be used.
  • the process is advantageously carried out in electrolytic cells having pairs of vibrating electrodes such as are described in detail for example in British Pat. application No. 30712/66.
  • Electrodes are liquid-permeable, for example in the form of netting, expanded metal or screens and are arranged opposite to each other at a very small distance of less than 1 mm,, preferably of from 0.1 to 0.3 mm.
  • a layer of woven or non-woven glass fiber cloth, paper, polyamide cloth, polyester cloth, polyvinyl chloride cloth, polypropylene cloth or polytetrafluoroethylene cloth, which is permeable to liquid is provided between the electrodes as a spacer and insulator.
  • the electrodes are held in position by suitable mechanical means made of alloy steel, titanium, aluminum (particularly anodized aluminum), polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polyethylene or glass.
  • the pair of horizontal electrodes is preferably vibrated perpendicularly to their planes with a frequency of from 1 to 1,000 cycles per second and an amplitude of 0.3 to 2 mm.
  • Platinum, alloys of platinum and rhodium or of platinum and iridium, gold, alloys of gold and platinum, for example Au:Pt :10, platinized titanium or tantalum, or titanium or tantalum which'have been gilded, are suitable as the material for the anodes.
  • the material for the cathodes is not critical; all that is necessary is that it should not corrode in the weakly acid electrolytes when no current is passing.
  • Platinum, alloy steel, nickel or titanium are suitable. Platinum and nickel have the advantage of low hydrogen overvoltage.
  • FIG. 1 is a sectional elevation of an electrolytic cell
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrate embodiments of pairs of electrodes.
  • the electrolytic cell shown diagrammatically in FIG. 1 is a convenient embodiment given by way of example. It consists of an electrolysis vessel 1 provided with a cover 2.
  • the electrolysis vessel contains a horizontal pair of electrodes consisting of a cathode netting 3 and an anode netting 4 which are kept apart from each other by a coarsely porous insulating material 5.
  • the two nettings are pressed together by two wheel-shaped members 6 and 7 of suitable plastics which are secured at the lower end of the axis 8 of a vibrator. Contact is made with the nettings by contacts 9 and 10 which in turn are connected with the vibrator axis 8 (sewing as an electric lead) and with a flexible lead 11.
  • the vibrator axis 8 is carried by a vibrator 12 and is passed into the cell through a rubber membrane 13 which gives a gastight seal.
  • the apparatus is also provided with a glass electrode 14, a thermometer 15, a dropping funnel l6 and an offgas pipe through a brine-cooled reflux condenser 17.
  • the cell stands in a waterbath (not shown) through which tap water fiows for the purpose of cooling.
  • liquid-permeable cathode of the said type with a liquid-permeable anode. It is very difficult to prepare liquidpermeable anodes having good resistance to corrosion if it is not desired to use anodes made wholly of precious metal which are too expensive for large scale manufacture. It is preferable to use composite electrodes, i.e., those consisting of a base metal, for example aluminum or an alloy thereof for example with l to 3 percent of magnesium, having a coating of precious metal, particularly of platinum. The layer of precious metal then need only be from about 3 to 70 microns in thickness. It is essential that the coating of precious metal is continuous. Parts which are not covered with precious metal may be covered with a plastics resin or paint which is insoluble in the reaction medium.
  • the pair of electrodes formed by anode, insulating layer and cathode may be disposed horizontally or vertically in the electrolytic cell and then in the reaction mixture.
  • the pair of electrodes may be vibrated perpendicular or parallel to the macroscopic surface of the electrodes.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 Two possibilities are shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 which have proved to be particularly suitable.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a pair of electrodes which vibrates perpendicularly to the planes of the electrodes while
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a pair of electrodes which vibrates parallel to the planes of the electrodes.
  • the anode is a circular or square plate consisting of a base metal 18 covered on one side with a thin layer 19 of platinum.
  • a liquid-permeable insulating layer and the liquidpermeable cathode 3 are placed on top of the anode.
  • the sides of the base metal of the anode which are not covered by platinum are coated with plastics 20 to protect them from corrosion.
  • the pair of electrodes is submerged in the reaction mixture contained in the electrode vessel 1.
  • the axis 8 of the vibrator passes through the cover 2 of the electrolysic cell and is driven by the vibrator 12.
  • the output of the apparatus may easily be increased by arranging two or more pairs of electrodes in series one above the other in an analogous manner as bipolar units.
  • the vibrator axis may serve at the same time for clamping together and as electric return lead.
  • the electrodes vibrate parallel to the surface (as in FIG. 3) separate bolts have to be passed through for clamping.
  • the current density may be set at a high figure in spite ofthe low degree of neutralization. Current densities of 25 to 50 amperes per square decimeter are immediately possible industri ally. Cell voltages of from 5 to 18, particularly from 8 to 12, volts are generally used.
  • the reaction temperature is usually kept at from 30 to 65 C. It has been found that in methanol solutions a flat minimum of the cell voltage occurs at 40 to 55 C.
  • Conversion of carboxylic acids may be very high, for example more than 90 percent, by reason of the low degree of neutralization, and this has an advantageous effect on the processing of the reaction mixture.
  • the cell voltage declines during electrolysis although a relatively nonpolar product accumulates, whereas in conventional methods the cell voltage increases during electrolysis and the increase may exceed 100 percent ofthe original value.
  • the process may be carried out continuously at a high concentration of the electrolysis products and a low concentration of the acid to be electrolyzed without impairment of the yield.
  • the anodic oxidation of the product thus plays no part, i.e., in spite of the low concentration of the starting materials these are preferentially reacted at the electrodes.
  • reaction mixture (illustrated later by way of example with reference to the synthesis of sebacic esters) is very simple.
  • Countercurrent extraction with organic solvents for example octane or cyclohexane, such as is necessary in the prior art methods, can be dispensed with.
  • the solvent is advantageously distilled off from the reaction mixture in a falling film evaporator.
  • the bottom contains a mixture of sebacic esters, unreacted hemiesters of adipic acid, precipitated salt of the hemiester and low boiling C monocarboxylic esters formed as byproducts (these are particularly methyl valerate, methyl allylacetate, methylw-alkoxyvalerates and methylw-hydroxyvalerate) and the salts and unreacted hemiesters may be separated therefrom by extraction with water.
  • the sebacic esters and the byproducts remaining in the organic phase may be separated by distillation or by freezing out the sebacic ester and filtering it off.
  • the mixture remaining after distilling off the residue may also be separated into its components by filtering off precipitated salts, freezing out the sebacic esters from the filtrate and separating by distillation the unreacted hemiesters of adipic acid and the byproducts.
  • a horizontal pair of electrodes is mounted in a glass electrolytic cell 1 as shown diagrammatically in FIG. 1 which is provided with a polyethylene cover 2 .
  • This consists of a circular cathode netting 3 (nickel, 400 meshes per cm?) and an anode netting 4 of the same size made of an alloy of platinum and rhodium and having 1,024 meshes per cm. which are insulated from each other by a coarsely porous non-woven glass fiber fabric 5 having a thickness of 0.15 mm.
  • the two nettings are pressed together by two wheel-shaped members 6 and 7 of polypropylene and are secured at the lower end of a vibrator axis 8.
  • contacts 9 and 10 which are connected with the electrical supply through the vibrator shaft 8 serving as an electrical conductor and a flexible lead 11.
  • the vibrator shaft 8 is secured to a vibrator 12 (40 watts, 50 cycles per second) and passes into the cell 1 through a rubber membrane 13 which gives a gastight seal.
  • the apparatus is also provided with a glass electrode 14, a thermometer 15, a dropping funnel 16 and an offgas outlet through a brine cooled reflux condenser 17.
  • the cell stands in a bath (not shown) of flowing tap water to keep it cool.

  • the cell voltage at the beginning of the electrolysis is l4.8 volts, after 1 hour it is 14.3 volts, after 2 hours 13.9 volts, after 3 hours 12.7 volts and after 4 hours and 12 minutes (the end) 10.5 volts. During this period the pH value is raised from 5.1 to 7.0. The amount of current passed through corresponds to a conversion of 132 percent, with reference to the free hemiester.
  • EXAMPLE 6 333 g. of a mixture of 400 g. of monomethyl adipate, 587.4 g. of methanol and 12.6 g. of triethylamine is introduced into the electrolytic cell described in Example 1 at the beginning of electrolysis. 2 hours and 44 minutes later (i.e., after reaching a theoretical current conversion of 132 percent at 10 amperes and a current density of 25 amperes per cm?) further mixture is dripped in continuously at the rate of 2 grams per minute and an equivalent amount of reaction mixture is withdrawn. During this continuous period the cell voltage remains constant at 18.5 volts and the pH value at 6.8. Working up three fractions, each of 290 g., gives the following results:
  • EXAMPLE 7 A mixture of 14 g. of monomethyl adipate, 73.5 g. of sebacic ester, 8.05 g. of 29.5 percent sodium methylate solution and 254.4 g. of methanol is introduced at the beginning of electrolysis in the electrolytic cell described in Example 1. This mixture corresponds to the mixture described in Example 1 after 95 percent conversion of the free hemiester with an 80 percent yield.

  • a Liebig condenser is arranged parallel to the tube and is connected with the tube by horizontal pipes at the top and bottom.
  • Six pairs of electrodes (diameter 88 mm., spacing 100 mm.) are mounted on a vibrator shaft in the cell; the pairs of electrodes have the composition as described in Example 1.
  • the pairs of electrodes are connected electrically in series by shaft sections of anodized aluminum coated with condensation lacquer.
  • the pair of electrodes is as shown in FIG. 2 and consists of a horizontal circular base plate of aluminum 18 onto which is bonded a smooth platinum foil 19 having a thickness of 40 microns by means of a conducting synthetic resin adhesive.
