Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the continuous production of higher-chain carbonyl compounds by reacting lower-chain carbonyl compounds with aldehydes over basic or acidic catalysts in a rectification column.
  • the aldol addition of two different aldehydes or an aldehyde with a ketone can only be used preparatively if the aldehyde component does not have an ⁇ -hydrogen atom, so that it can only function as a carbonyl component.
  • This type of reaction is referred to in the literature as the Claisen-Schmidt reaction. Since the aldol addition is a reversible reaction, there is a risk of cleavage back into the starting compounds. Information on the technical implementation of this reaction is not given in Römpp Chemie Lexikon.
  • a process for the preparation of pseudoionone by reacting citral with acetone using LiOH as a catalyst is described in US-4874900.
  • the reaction is then carried out batchwise or continuously at temperatures from -20 to 240 ° C.
  • the pressure is adjusted so that the reaction mixture remains in the liquid phase at the appropriate temperature.
  • the reactants are stirred in a vessel and the catalyst is filtered off after the reaction has ended, while in the continuous mode of operation the premixed reactants are pumped through a column filled with catalyst. In both cases, the reaction mixture is neutralized with CO at the end of the reaction and the excess ketone is distilled off.
  • Patent PL147748 describes a process for the preparation of ionone by condensation of citral and acetone on basic ion exchangers at 56 ° C. Thereafter, acetone and citral are stirred discontinuously in a flask with the catalyst for 5 hours. No details are given in this patent regarding the technical implementation of the reaction. The disadvantage of this process is the very low space-time yields.
  • a method for the aldolization of acetone in a reaction column is described by Podrebarac, Ng and Rempel in Chemtech (May 1997, page 41).
  • the catalyst is installed in the upper part of a distillation column, the acetone is pumped into the column at a point not mentioned and a product mixture of diacetone alcohol, mesityl oxide, acetone and water is drawn off at the bottom.
  • Podrebarac points out that the balance of aldolization of acetone is positively influenced by reactive distillation. In the present invention, however, the formation of condensation products of the ketone is an undesirable side reaction to be avoided.
  • CN1109860-A describes a process for the preparation of diacetone alcohol.
  • acetone is condensed in a reactor and the reaction product is fed into a distillation column in which the acetone is distilled off overhead and in the Reactor is recycled.
  • the reaction product is drawn off at the bottom of the column. This process is therefore a conventional combination of reaction with subsequent distillation and recycling of unreacted starting materials.
  • ZA 9805328-A describes a process for the preparation of methyl isobutyl ketone.
  • acetone and hydrogen are metered into the column in cocurrent below the reaction zone, which consists of a bed of catalyst.
  • the acetone reacts to the mesityl oxide by aldol condensation, which is then hydrogenated to the methyl isobutyl ketone.
  • Below and / or above the reaction zone there are distillation zones.
  • the reaction product is separated off in the distillation zone and drawn off at the bottom, while unreacted acetone is separated off at the top and is returned to the column as reflux.
  • a bifunctional catalyst is installed in the reaction zone, which accelerates both the aldol condensation and the hydrogenation.
  • Ion exchangers zeolites or aluminum oxide with a metal of group VIII or IB, such as nickel, palladium or copper, are mentioned as examples. With this process, selectivities of 61.2% based on acetone are achieved. This selectivity is unsatisfactory for an industrial process.
  • the patent is also limited to directing the reactants in direct current.
  • a process for the aldolization of aldehydes in the presence of a basic catalyst is described in JP 10053552-A.
  • An aldehyde with at least one hydrogen atom in the ⁇ position is then metered into a reaction column with sieve trays. This process can be used, for example, to produce 2-ethylhexenal from n-butyl aldehyde.
  • the dimerization of aldehydes is not the subject of the present invention.
  • DE19605078A1 describes a process for the preparation of a dimerized aldehyde in a reaction column in the presence of an aqueous solution of a basic catalyst.
  • the process is characterized in that the feed aldehyde has one or two hydrogen atoms in the ⁇ position.
  • the aldehyde and an aqueous solution of the basic catalyst are metered in at the same feed point into a reaction column in which the reaction takes place.
  • the unreacted reactant is separated off at the top of the column and some of it is returned to the column.
  • the reaction product is removed from the column on a gaseous side draw together with water. As water forms a miscibility gap with the product, a phase separation vessel is required.
  • aqueous basic catalyst solution and high-boiling compounds are drawn off via the bottom of the column, so that a phase separation is likewise necessary at this point.
  • the phase separations and associated returns in this process are associated with additional investment costs.
  • the recycling of the homogeneous catalyst is complex.
  • DE 3319-430-A claims the production of higher ketones by condensation of methyl ketones and unsaturated aldehydes over mixed metal catalysts in the presence of hydrogen at 100 to 280 ° C. and 10 to 60 bar in a tubular reactor.
  • the catalysts claimed are one Combination of oxides or phosphates of rare earth metals, Mg, Al, Zn or Ti and a Group VIII metal. 5 wt.% Pr0 3 and 0.5 wt.% Pd on aluminum oxide are mentioned as examples.
  • US5254743-A describes the use of Mg, Ca, Ba, Ni, Co, Fe, Cu or Zn oxides on oxides of the elements Al, Ga, Cr, Co, Fe or La with a surface patented of at least 150 m 2 / g.
  • JP-162329 mentions La0 3 , Nd0 3 or Pr 2 0 3 on ⁇ -aluminum oxide as a catalyst for "various" chemical reactions.
  • the discontinuous processes for the aldolization of different carbonyl compounds have the disadvantage of high residence times and therefore low space-time yields, high investment costs and low yields.
  • the reactants are first mixed, passed over a bed of catalyst and the excess ketone is only separated off after the reaction. On the one hand, this leads to increased investment costs and a high thermal load on the products, which is associated with a reduced yield.
  • a reactant in a large excess of over 20 mol / mol must be used to achieve sufficient selectivity.
  • the processes described in the literature for the aldolization of different carbonyl compounds have considerable disadvantages, as explained above.
  • the object of the invention was therefore to provide a new process for the continuous aldolization of different carbonyl compounds with advantageous properties, which no longer has the disadvantages of the prior art and which provides the corresponding products in high selectivities and high space-time yields.
  • the reaction should be able to be carried out continuously in a single reactor, with high product selectivities for both carbonyl compounds being achieved with the shortest possible reaction times. In particular, it should be avoided that a large excess of a reactant is used to achieve high selectivities and that it has to be separated off again after the reaction. Accordingly, a process for the continuous production of carbonyl compounds of the general formula (I) has been found

  • the process is of particular importance for the aldolization of citral with acetone for the production of pseudoionon and for the production of methylpseudoionon, dirnethylpseudoionon and ethylpseudoionon, since these compounds are important intermediates for the production of vitamin A and fragrances.
