Description

DESCRIPTION
PROCESS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF CARBAMATES USING CO2
Field of the invention
This invention relates to a process for the preparation of carbamates using CO2. The carbamates in turn can be decomposed into isocyanates.
Background of the invention Isocyanates are key intermediates for the manufacture of polyurethanes. They are conventionally produced by the phosgenation of primary amines which results in the production of two equivalents of HCl as a by-product. Considering the environmental hazard and corrosion problems in the phosgenation it is important to develop a route without using phosgene. Synthesis based on carbon dioxide (CO2) as Ci- source would provide a sustainable, green alternative, with a reduced variable cost compared to CO and Cl2 and avoidance of the production of HCl as by-product.
Chem. Commun. (2001) p. 2238-2239 (M. AbIa, J-C. Choi and T. Sakakura) discloses a one-pot synthesis of carbamates, using aliphatic amines, CO2 under very high pressure (300 bar), tin complexes as catalyst, alcohol and an equimolar amount of a chemical drying agent such as acetals as a co-reagent resulting in by-product formation. The co-reagent requires extensive recycle and to obtain good selectivity, very high pressure is required (300 bar and more).
J. Org. Chem., 1995, 60, p.2820-2830 (W. McGhee, D. Riley, K. Christ, Y. Pan and B. Parnas) describes the reaction of amines with equimolar amounts of base, CO2 and an excess of an alkylating agent resulting in carbamates and large amount of salts as byproduct. These salts cannot be recycled making this option very expensive and generating a very large waste stream. WO 95/18098 (McGhee et al.) relates to a process in which an amine is combined with at least two equimolar amounts of base, CO2 and at least an equimolar amount of a chemically dehydrating agent resulting directly in isocyanates and large amounts of very difficult or non recyclable salts. At best, the dehydrating agent can be recycled at the expense of a multistep process, requiring strong bases and acids thereby producing other waste salt streams.
Recent research, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. (2003), 42, p.3257-3260 (F. Shi, Y. Deng, T. SiMa, J. Peng, Y. Gu and B. Qiao)), has resulted in the synthesis of ureas from amines with high pressure CO2 in the presence of a base and an ionic liquid (IL). Aromatic amines react very slowly and observed yields are low (27-33%). Urea can be separated as a solid after addition of water. The base/IL system could be recovered and reused after water removal. Furthermore, it was stated that urea can easily be converted into carbamates in a separate step such that the carbamate can be decomposed into isocyanates. However, this is a multistep process requiring a lot of very complicated recycling. Transformation of urea with alcohol into carbamate will result in an equimolar amount of amine which needs to be separated from the carbamate and recycled to the urea making step.
Int. J. MoI. Sci. (2006), 7, p. 438-450 (S-I. Fujita, H. Kanamaru, H. Senboku and M. Arai), describes the preparation of aliphatic cyclic urethanes from amino alcohols and high pressure carbon dioxide using ionic liquid catalysts with alkali metal promoters and alcohol solvent. This article demonstrates the principle of making cyclic urethanes in low yields (10-40%). This suggests that it will be very difficult to make linear urethanes with moderate to high yields, by intermolecular reactions, since the sterically favoured cyclic urethanes are obtained at low yields only.
An improved process for the synthesis of non cyclic carbamate derivatives at moderate (>40%) to high yields (>80%) has now been found by reacting amine compounds, alcohols and CO2 in the presence of ionic liquids and optionally a base and/or a catalytic compound of one or more metals and/or a co-solvent. This route provides a clean one-step process to make non cyclic carbamates avoiding the need of co -reagents, formation of by-products and salt formation. It provides a non- phosgene method for the preparation of non cyclic carbamates and the derived isocyanates by using CO2 as a Ci feedstock.

Other examples of suitable base compounds include alkali metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal oxides, alkali metal carbonates and alkaline earth metal carbonates such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, and the like, and mixtures thereof.
One can also use any type of the above homogeneous bases anchored or grafted on an organic or inorganic support such as:
• organic supports: ion exchange resins (Dowex and Amberlite type) and spacer modified polymer supports
• inorganic supports : ALPO (aluminiumphosphate), ALPON (aluminophosphate oxynitride, AI2O3 (Alumina), SiO2 (silica, zeolites), carbon, TiO2, V2O5, SiC and the like.
Further there can be used base in a crosslinked polymer form such as polyvinylpyridines, aminobenzimidazole polymer or basic solids such as metal oxides, e.g. MgO, CaO, ZrO2, AI2O3, hydrotalcites, clays and similar layered solids, SiO2, TiO2, MgAl2O4, mixed oxides such as Mg-Li-O, Li-La-O, Cs-La-O.
A catalytic compound that can be used in combination with or separate from the base is composed of one or more metals from groups IIIA, IVA, VA, VIA, VIIA, VIII, IB, HB, IIIB, IVB of the Periodic Table of Elements and is selected from the group consisting of a salt, a complex and combinations of both and optionally a matrix to which this compound is bound or on which it is supported.
A different approach is to put the ionic liquid on a carrier known as Supported Ionic Liquid Phase Catalysis. This can be done in combination with a solid base or the carrier for the ionic liquid can contain base sites.
Next to the ionic liquid a co-solvent may be employed. This can simply be the alcohol which is already needed to make the carbamate and which is already exemplified above. Other co-solvents can be aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons such as monochlorobenzene, o-dichlorobenzene, trichlorobenzene or 1- chloro naphthalene, alkylated aromatic hydrocarbons like toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, cumene or tetrahydronaphthalene, other functionalised aromatic hydrocarbons such as anisole, diphenylether, ethoxybenzene, benzonitrile, 2-fluoroanisole, 2,3-dimethylanisole, trifluorotoluene.
Co-solvents may also be alkanes such as n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane or higher branched alkanes, cyclic alkanes like cyclopentane, cyclohexane or derivatives thereof, halogenated alkanes like chloroform, dichloromethane, carbon tetrachloride and alkanes with other functional groups like diethylether, acetonitrile, propionitrile, dioxane and the like, ketones such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone, amides such as N5N' -dimethyl formamide and N, N'-dimethylacetamide and esters such as ethylacetate and ethylbenzoate, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide, sulfolane, pyridine and the like.
As solvents compounds can be used such that the amines are converted to salt melts in the presence Of CO2 and/or optionally a base.
Addition of CO2 can be done in the gas phase by simply bubbling it through the reaction mixture or by high pressure injection in the gas phase or liquid phase or supercritical phase.
Reaction conditions range from the melting point of the ionic liquid until the decomposition temperature of the carbamate in the presence of alcohol (up to 2500C). Pressure ranges from atmospheric (bubbling CO2) over supercritical conditions (> 73 bar) of several hundreds and thousands of bar CO2 pressure. Preferred conditions are below 500 bar.
Product separation can be achieved by any known standard separation technique, which will depend of the exact nature of the product composition. Examples are distillation, extraction, filtration, adsorption and the like. Decomposition of carbamates into isocyanates is a known process and has been described in the gas phase (US 3870739), liquid phase solvent free (US 5453536), liquid phase with a solvent (EP 611243), catalysed (US 4487713), stripping to promote distillation (EP 611243), continuous (US 5284969) and the like.
Distillable isocyanates can be removed from the reaction mixture directly by in situ thermolysis of the carbamate into the isocyanate and alcohol and by distillation of the isocyanate and/or the alcohol.
The overall process can be operated as a batch, continuous or semi-continuous process.
Other additional benefits arising from various embodiments of the present invention include :
(a) economic attractiveness from the use Of CO2 together with minimisation of the amount of effluent,
(b) economic attractiveness from the use of a single step production from amines to carbamates produced at moderate (>40%) to high yields (>80%) and potentially production of isocyanates during work-up of the reaction mixture,
(c) production of isocyanates with low levels of so-called hydrolysable chlorine impurities.
