Abstract

The invention discloses a process for continuously producing isobutyric acid, and belongs to the field of production of fine chemicals. In the process, a rectification mode is adopted for reaction; isobutylaldehyde and prepared catalyst solution serving as reaction raw materials are pumped from the upper part of a rectifying tower to flow from top to bottom; oxygen-containing gas is pumped from areaction kettle at the bottom of the tower; after the gas passes through a gas distributor, fine gas bubbles flow upwards in a backflow way; the middle part of the rectifying tower is a reaction section which accommodates a porcelain ring or a stainless steel filler; the isobutylaldehyde and the oxygen-containing gas are converged on a filler layer of the rectifying tower to react under the action of a catalyst; generated isobutyric acid which is enriched on a tower kettle is continuously discharged from the tower kettle; and the heat discharged by the reaction is removed by cooling water of a jacket. The continuous process is more environmental-friendly, saves energy and has high efficiency, isobutylaldehyde conversion rate of more than 90 percent and isobutyric acid selectivity of more than 95 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a continuous production process of isobutyric acid, which belongs to the field of fine chemical production. Background technique [0002] The production of isobutyric acid can usually be obtained by oxidation of isobutyraldehyde or isobutanol as raw materials. The production of isobutyric acid by isobutanol oxidation method has high cost, low yield and many wastes. The production of isobutyric acid by oxidation of isobutyraldehyde has the advantages of low cost, high product selectivity and simple process. At present, the industrial production of isobutyric acid generally adopts the liquid-phase oxidation method of isobutyraldehyde as raw material, and uses carboxylates such as Mn, Cu, Co, and Fe as catalysts. [0003] U.S. Patent No. 5,068,366 discloses a method for co-producing isobutyric acid. Carboxylates such as Mn, Cu, and Co are used as catalysts to oxidize isobutene and isobutyraldehyde. Isobutyric acid is used as a c...
