Embodiment 1

[0027] Add 15g of KOH, 1000g of n-hexanol and 1g of nano-chromium oxide into a three-neck flask equipped with an intercalated thermometer, water separator, reflux condenser, nitrogen conduit, and electromagnetic stirrer, stir for 10 minutes with nitrogen gas, heat up to 140°C, and react for 45 minutes. After cooling, the reaction mixture was washed with water until neutral, dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain colorless and transparent 2-butyl octanol with a purity greater than 96%, a yield of 92%, and a trimer content of 2.4%.

Embodiment 2

[0029] Add 15g NaOH, 1000g n-heptanol and 1.5g nano-barium oxide into a three-necked flask equipped with an intercalated thermometer, a water separator, a reflux condenser, a nitrogen conduit, and an electromagnetic stirrer, and stir for 5 minutes with nitrogen gas, and heat up to 160°C. 40min. After cooling, the reaction mixture was washed with water until neutral, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain colorless and transparent 2-pentylnonanol with a purity greater than 96%, a yield of 92%, and a trimer content of 2.0%.

Embodiment 3

[0031] Add 18g of KOH, 1000g of n-octanol and 2g of nano-copper oxide into a three-neck flask equipped with an intercalated thermometer, water separator, reflux condenser, nitrogen conduit and electromagnetic stirrer, stir for 10min with nitrogen gas, heat up to 170°C, and react for 30min . After cooling, the reaction mixture was washed with water until neutral, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain colorless and transparent 2-hexyldecanol with a purity greater than 96%.

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of guerbet alcohol. In this method, nano-scale metal oxides are taken as catalysts, strong alkaline substances are taken as cocatalysts, and fatty alcohol is catalyzed and condensed with one water molecule removed at nitrogen atmosphere to obtain the guerbet alcohol. The invention is characterized in that the reaction time is short, the highest yield is up to 92%, the product purity is greater than 96%, and the product selectivity is high (the content of trimers in product is less than 2.5%).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of Guerbet alcohol. Background technique [0002] Polyalkylcyclopentane synthetic oil is a new type of high-performance lubricating oil, which can be used for space machinery liquid lubrication, rocket engine and aircraft engine main bearing lubrication. Guerbet alcohol is the main raw material for the synthesis of polyalkylcyclopentane, and its synthesis method is to remove a molecule of water through condensation reaction with aliphatic primary or secondary alcohols. [0003] The preparation method disclosed in US 3119880 is to heat the primary alcohol to carry out the condensation dehydration reaction under the catalysis of copper oxide-barium oxide-chromium oxide under alkaline conditions, and the reaction time is 10 hours. [0004] The preparation method disclosed in US 4518810 is to heat the primary alcohol to carry out condensation dehydration reaction under the catalysis of alkaline substance and c...
