Catalyst for producing benzenediol by oxygenizing phenyl hydrate with hydrogen peroxide at room temperature and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a catalyst for oxidizing phenol by hydrogen peroxide at room temperature to prepare benzenediol, and the preparation method of the benzenediol. The structural formula of the catalyst is AmBnFexSiOy, wherein A is one of the elements of the III main group in the periodic table, and B is one of the transition metal elements. A certain amount of inorganic metallic ferric salt and a precursor containing A and/or B are dissolved in a water solution, the solution is added to a water solution containing a surface active agent and a silicon source; after the solution is stirred, water solution of tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide is added, and then, sol is obtained by regulating the pH value; and the sol is centrifugated, washed and dried after being aged at room temperature or under the hydrothermal condition, and then, the surface active agent is removed to obtain the catalyst. The invention also relates to the preparation method of the benzenediol, which is characterized in that the catalyst is adopted, and the phenol is directly oxidized by the hydrogen peroxide at room temperature to prepare the benzenediol. The invention overcomes the disadvantages of high energy consumption, heavy machine utilization and the like under the conditions of high temperature and high pressure in the prior art of synthesizing benzenediol.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of catalyst that oxidizes phenol with hydrogen peroxide to produce hydroquinone and preparation method thereof, specifically relate to a kind of structural formula A m B n Fe x SiO y A catalyst for preparing quinone by room temperature oxidation of phenol with hydrogen peroxide and a preparation method thereof; the present invention also relates to the application of the above catalyst in room temperature oxidation of phenol hydrogen peroxide to produce quinone. Background technique [0002] Hydroquinone (catechol and hydroquinone) is an important organic intermediate, widely used in spices, dyes, medicines, pesticides, rubber, coatings and photographic industries. Traditional hydroquinone synthesis methods include aniline oxidation, p-dicumene oxidation, etc., and catechol is mainly obtained by hydrolysis of o-chlorophenol or o-methoxyphenol. These preparation methods have the disadvantages of many reaction ...
