Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for preparing an aminonitrile mixture containing aminoacetonitrile (AAN) and from 5 to 70% by weight of lminodiacetonitrile (IDAN).
- AAN aminoacetonitrile
- IDAN lminodiacetonitrile
- EP-A 1 209 146 relates to a process for the continuous hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines, wherein from the starting material AAN ethylenediamine (EDA) and from the starting material IDAN diethylenetriamine (DETA) is produced.
- EDA ethylenediamine
- DETA diethylenetriamine
- US-A 5,079,380 relates to a process for the preparation of AAN, wherein ammonia (NH 3), formaldehyde (HCHO) and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) are reacted at at least 100 0 C.
- first formaldehyde and hydrocyanic acid can be converted to formaldehyde cyanohydrin (FACH) as an intermediate, which then reacts further with ammonia to give AAN.
- FACH formaldehyde cyanohydrin
- the molar ratio of ammonia to FACH or to formaldehyde and hydrogen cyanide is 4: 1 [mol / mol].
- the temperatures in the AAN synthesis are 50 to 80 0 C and the pH is about 10.
- IDAN is usually also assumed by ammonia and FACH or ammonia, formaldehyde and hydrocyanic acid.
- the conversion to IDAN is usually carried out at higher temperatures (about 100 to 150 ° C), a lower pH of about 5 to 7 and at a lower ammonia content than in the corresponding synthesis of AAN.
- Such processes for the preparation of IDAN are described, for example, in EP-A 426 394 or US Pat. No. 4,895,971.
- the preparation of IDAN can also be carried out by the reaction of urotropin (hexamethylenetetraamine, HMTA) with hydrocyanic acid and formaldehyde, as described, for example, in US Pat. No. 3,988,360.
- urotropin hexamethylenetetraamine, HMTA
- US-A 2,511,487 relates to a process in which IDAN is prepared starting from AAN.
- AAN is mixed with FACH in a molar ratio of about 1: 0.3 to 1, 5 [mol / mol] and heated in the presence of a mineral acid stabilizer, such as phosphoric acid at 100 to 150 0 C.
- a mineral acid stabilizer such as phosphoric acid

- processes which can purposefully prepare an aminonitrile mixture which contains (on aminonitriles) mainly AAN and IDAN in a defined composition are not known.
- To prepare a corresponding aminonitrile mixture comprising AAN and IDAN it is possible in principle to mix the two main components AAN and IDAN in the desired ratio.
- a disadvantage of this method is that on the one hand two separate approaches (AAN and IDAN) must be driven.
- the isolation and handling of the solid-state IDAN often causes problems.
- the object underlying the invention is thus to provide an improved process for the preparation of a Aminonitrilgemisches containing defined amounts of AAN and IDAN, wherein the IDAN content in the mixture should be variable.
- the total amount of IDAN contained in the aminonitrile mixture should be from 5 to 70% by weight, based on the total amount of aminonitriles present in the mixture.
- this object is achieved by a process for preparing an aminonitrile mixture containing aminoacetonitrile (AAN) and from 5 to 70% by weight of imidodiacetonitrile (IDAN), crude AAN, which is substantially free of formaldehyde cyanohydrin (FACH-free ) is heated at a temperature of 50 to 150 0 C.

Rather, a mixture comprising AAN and from 5 to 70% by weight of IDAN can be prepared in a very selective manner. Thus, with the method according to the invention, an IDAN content in the aminonitrile mixture can be adjusted variably. This takes place in a simple way, since only one starting material (AAN) has to be prepared, from which part of the process according to the invention, IDAN, is formed in part.

- the crude AAN is preferably prepared by reacting an aqueous mixture of ammonia with formaldehyde cyanohydrin (FACH) in a molar ratio of> 4: 1 [mol / mol] at a temperature of 50 to 80 ° C.
- FACH formaldehyde cyanohydrin
- the reaction is carried out at about 70 0 C in the flow reactor at a residence time of about 10-20 minutes.
- the reaction is carried out so that the FACH content is as low as possible in the crude AAN.
- a sufficiently long residence time and / or a not too low reaction temperature is set.
- these reaction parameters are optimized so that virtually no FACH is present in the reaction.
- the crude AAN can also be prepared by other methods known to those skilled in the art, for example by reacting ammonia with formaldehyde and hydrocyanic acid.
- substantially free of formaldehyde cyanohydrin FACH-free
- FACH-free formaldehyde cyanohydrin
- the inventive method can be carried out in principle in any device.

- the process according to the invention is preferably carried out in the same reactor as the synthesis of the crude AAN.
- a flow tube or a cascade of flow tubes can be used.
- Each flow tube can be subdivided by the impressed reaction conditions into several sections, so that although there is only one apparatus, but this corresponds in the reaction-technical sense, a cascade of flow tubes. In practice, this can be done by different heating or cooling zones, different catalysts or by intermediate feed of reactants or inert components (eg solvents).
- reactors can be used individually or as a cascade. In particular, it is also possible to connect different reactor types or apparatuses into a cascade. Possible reactor types are, in addition to the flow tube, loop reactors, stirred tanks, falling film evaporators, thin-film evaporators or other types of heat exchangers. These apparatuses or reactors can each be operated with or without external circulation, wherein the outer circulation can serve for backmixing or for simple heat supply or removal via an external heat transfer medium.

- the desired reaction conditions for each step are set in succession.
- Suitable reactor types are, for example, stirred tank loop reactor, boiler or stirred tank with attached distillation column, each with or without external circulation, wherein the outer circulation is used for temperature control, or the reaction takes place wholly or partly in the outer heat exchanger.
