Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing oxalate by CO gas phase coupling, more specifically, relates to a gas phase reaction of CO and methyl nitrite or ethyl nitrite in a combined fixed bed reactor to produce dioxalate Methyl ester or diethyl oxalate method. Background technique
[0002] Oxalate is an important chemical raw material, which can be used to prepare oxalic acid, oxalate, carbonate, oxamide, intermediates of drugs and dyes, plastic accelerators and solvents, etc.
[0003] The traditional production route of oxalate is the method of esterification and dehydration of oxalic acid and alcohol with toluene as the dehydrating agent. The production process is long, the energy is high, the pollution is serious, and the cost is high. It is urgent to find a new process route. The gas-phase catalyzed synthesis of oxalate from CO and nitrite opens up a new and important route for C1 chemical production of oxalate. Since the 1980s, fo...
