Definitions
- the invention relates to a two-stage process for the production of organic carbonates.
- Dimethyl carbonate and diphenyl carbonate are intermediates in the chemical industry that are used in a wide range of applications.
- Dimethyl carbonate is a starting material for aromatic polycarbonates.
- Dimethyl carbonate is transesterified with phenol to give diphenyl carbonate and converted to aromatic polycarbonate in a melt polymerization with bisphenol (Daniele Delledonne; Franco Rivetti; Ugo Romano: "Developments in the production and application of dimethyl carbonate” Applied Catalysis A: General 221 (2001) 241 - 251).
- Dimethyl carbonate can be used to improve the octane number of gasoline and replace environmentally problematic additives such as MTBE (Michael A. Pacheco; Christopher L.
- Dimethyl carbonate has a number of applications in chemical synthesis. At temperatures at or below the boiling point of 90 ° C, dimethyl carbonate can be used as the methoxylating agent. At higher temperatures around 160 ° C dimethyl carbonate can be used as a methylating agent (Pietro Tundi; Maurizio Selva: "The Chemistry of Dimethyl Carbonate” Acc. Chem. Res. 35 (2002) 706 - 716).
- the main process currently used is the reaction of methanol with carbon monoxide and oxygen on a copper chloride contact, described in US Pat. No. 5,210,269 by Enichem (1993). This oxidative carbonylation proceeds via copper methoxy chloride and a subsequent reaction with carbon monoxide to give dimethyl carbonate.
- the main problem with this process is the deactivation of the catalyst by water. The deactivated catalyst has to be regenerated at great expense or the water content in the reactor has to be kept low.
- a variant of the oxidative carbonylation is a two-step reaction over methyl nitrite.
- methyl nitrite is synthesized from methanol, nitrogen monoxide and oxygen, with water being a by-product.
- gaseous methyl nitrite is reacted with CO in a fixed bed reactor on a palladium chloride catalyst to give dimethyl carbonate; the resulting NO is circulated.
- the disadvantage of this method is that it is dangerous to handle corrosive nitrogen monoxide.
- dimethyl carbonate Another possibility for the production of dimethyl carbonate is the transesterification of a cyclic carbonate with methanol.
- Processes with ethylene or propylene carbonate as the starting material are known (US 4,734,518 Texaco 1988; US 4,691,041 Texaco 1987).
- transesterification with methanol can be used to synthesize the dimethyl carbonate and simultaneously one mole of the corresponding diol.
- the alkylene carbonates are easy to prepare.
- the disadvantage of this method is the co-production of diols in the production of the dimethyl carbonate.
- the direct alcoholysis of urea with methanol is another possibility for the production of dimethyl carbonate.
- the synthesis proceeds in two steps via the methyl carbamate to the dimethyl carbonate.
- the reaction rate is strongly inhibited by the ammonia formed.
- chemical and physical methods have been proposed to remove the ammonia formed.
- a cyclic carbonate (US 5,489,702 Mitsubishi Gas Chemical 1996; US 5,349,077; Mitsubishi Gas Chemical 1994).
- a diol is reacted with urea and a cyclic alkylene carbonate with 5 or 6 ring atoms is synthesized.
- the alkylene carbonate is transesterified with methanol. The diol can then be circulated.
- the intermediate products produced in the alcoholysis must then be transesterified with methanol in order to obtain the dimethyl carbonate as a product.
- the transesterification is a catalyzed reaction.
- Basic alkali and alkaline earth metals or oxides are used as heterogeneous catalysts. Examples of alkali or alkaline earth metals in zeolites are in US 6,365,767 Exxon, examples of metal oxides are mentioned in US 6,207,850 Mobil Oil.
- Ammonia is split off during the reaction and has to be removed.
- ammonia can be removed from the reaction mixture by various methods, but in the processes known from the prior art, a solid to be disposed of is formed or a large part of the methanol used is also discharged. - Large amounts of methanol must be circulated.
- a process developed for DMC cannot easily be extended to the synthesis of other carbonates.
- a method that allows the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate and other organic carbonates without the disadvantages mentioned above would be advantageous.
- the intermediates required for the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate had a boiling point that was as high as possible so that they would not be removed when the ammonia was removed.
- a process were available which would not require pure substances as auxiliaries for the intermediate product production, but could allow mixtures in order to achieve an improved solubility for the urea on the one hand and to positively influence the boiling behavior on the other. It would also be advantageous if the auxiliaries used for this were environmentally neutral.
- the invention therefore relates to a process for the preparation of organic carbonates, in which urea, a substituted urea, a salt or ester of carbamic acid or one of its N-substituted derivatives (alkyl, aryl residues such as methyl, ethyl, phenyl) , Benzyl)
- polymeric polyfunctional alcohols such as polyalkylene glycols, polyester polyols or polyether polyols of the general formula I
- polymeric alcohols Due to their water-like polar structure, polymeric alcohols have a higher solubility for urea, substituted ureas, salts and esters of carbamic acid and their N-substituted derivatives than the long-chain monoalcohols or diols used so far, so that the reactions are carried out in a homogeneous solution can be.
- the solubility and at the same time the boiling point of the mixture can be set in a targeted manner.
- polymeric alcohols are still liquid at temperatures at which comparatively long monoalcohols or diols are already solid.
- auxiliaries have an adjustable viscosity, are not very corrosive and are therefore particularly suitable for a circulatory procedure. Furthermore, they are non-toxic and therefore environmentally neutral
- Polymeric alcohols have a significantly higher chemical, thermal and mechanical stability than the previously used substances, which leads to a recycle (cycle mode) of these alcohols after the regression is of great advantage in the second stage, since the losses of polymeric alcohols due to decomposition or thermal cracking processes are minimal.
- the polymeric alcohols used as auxiliaries are circulated without the need for time-consuming work-up.
- the process can also be used for the production of carbonates of substituted phenols which have 1-4 carbon atom-containing alkyl groups, not only for the production of diphenyl carbonate, because the boiling points of the intermediates are high and far from the boiling points of the transesterification alcohols or phenols used. This enables a better separation of target carbonate and regressed auxiliary substances over a wider temperature range.
- the process according to the invention is advantageously carried out in both stages at temperatures between 10 ° C. and 270 ° C.
- the first stage is carried out under normal pressure and metering in a gas or vapor suitable for expelling the ammonia formed, in the presence of catalysts.
- catalysts for this purpose, alkaline salts, oxides, hydroxides, alcoholates of the first and second main group or the 1st to 8th subgroup of Periodic table, basic zeolites or polymeric ion exchangers are suitable as catalysts.
- magnesium or zinc catalysts which can be used both as oxide or as acetate, are catalytically active.
- An important influencing factor is the removal of the ammonia by stripping with gas, steam or vacuum.
- the second stage involves the transesterification of the carbonate or carbamate with an alcohol or a phenol and can be carried out in the presence of the same basic catalysts as the first stage.
- the use of quaternary ammonium salts such as tetrabutylammonium acetate or tetrabutylammonium bromide or magnesium alcoholates has proven to be particularly advantageous.
- the transesterification is an equilibrium reaction, the position of which is more on the side of the starting materials, so that a simultaneous reaction and material separation makes sense. Temperatures between 10 ° C and 270 ° C allow a relatively quick implementation in this stage.
- Polyethylene glycol is suitable as a reactant because it has a number of interesting properties.
- the implementation of this dihydric alcohol with urine In principle, fabric can produce two products. These two long chain carbonates are:
- the catalysts mentioned in the patent literature comprise a number of metal oxides. Powdery oxides and acetates were used in the experiments carried out according to the invention. These were used in mass ratios between 5 and 25 percent by weight. Titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, magnesium oxide and magnesium acetate have been investigated as possible catalysts.
- the main influencing parameters for the reaction of urea with polyethylene glycol were identified as expulsion of the ammonia formed from the reaction mixture by vacuum or stripping with nitrogen. Working under vacuum was investigated with two tests at a pressure of 300 mbar. A noticeable improvement in the conversion behavior compared to the reaction without expulsion of the ammonia formed at ambient pressure was found. Even better results were obtained when the reaction mixture was gassed with nitrogen. A variation of the volume Stroms showed a clear influence on the implementation of urea with polyethylene glycol.
- the process according to the invention enables organic carbonates to be obtained via the intermediate stage of a mixture of organic carbonates and carbamates with polymeric residues by the reaction of urea or urea derivatives with polymeric alcohols such as polyethylene glycol at normal pressure, temperatures of up to 270 ° C. and addition of up to 5 Weight percent of alkaline catalysts possible.
- the products obtained in the first stage are exclusively organic carbonates and carbamates of the corresponding polymeric alcohols. With response times of around 5 hours, sales of over 90% were achieved.
- reaction of the carbonate or carbamate produced in the first stage with methanol proceeds relatively quickly with a basic catalyst when a slightly increased pressure of approx. 6 bar is used at a temperature of approx. 140 ° C.
- the balance is set in less than 1 hour in batch mode.
- a quaternary ammonium salt was used as the catalyst, which showed good catalytic properties. Even higher reaction rates were achieved by using magnesium methylate.
- the polymeric alcohol used as the auxiliary alcohol is returned to the first stage after the dimethyl carbonate or the diphenyl carbonate has been separated off. Due to the Loss of the polymeric auxiliary alcohol is avoided in the circulation of the process, so that the process can be regarded as extremely economical.
