Embodiment 1

[0026] Dissolve 2g of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol in 20ml of acetonitrile, add it into a three-necked flask, weigh 0.1g of Cu-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve into the flask, heat it in a water bath to 50°C, add 3ml of 30% Hydrogen peroxide, start timing, react for 3h. The final conversion rate was 6.6%, the selectivity to TMBQ was 62.0%, and the selectivity to TMHQ was 18.9%.

Embodiment 2

[0028] Dissolve 2g of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol in 20ml of acetonitrile, add it into a three-necked flask, weigh 0.1g of Cu-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve into the flask, heat it in a water bath to 60°C, add 3ml of 30% Hydrogen peroxide, start timing, react for 3h. The final conversion rate was 12.0%, the selectivity to TMBQ was 59.4%, and the selectivity to TMHQ was 18.9%.

Embodiment 3

[0030] Dissolve 2g of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol in 20ml of acetonitrile, add it into a three-necked flask, weigh 0.1g of Cu-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve into the flask, heat it in a water bath to 70°C, add 3ml of 30% Hydrogen peroxide, start timing, react for 3h. The final conversion rate was 25.9%, the selectivity to TMBQ was 54.3%, and the selectivity to TMHQ was 21.9%.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for synthesizing 2,3,5-trimethylbenzoquinone and 2,3,5-trimethylhydroquinone. In the method, the 2,3,5-trimethylbenzoquinone and the 2,3,5-trimethylhydroquinone are prepared by oxidizing reaction at the temperature of between 50 and 80 DEG C in the presence of a Cu-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve serving as a catalyst, H2O2 serving as an oxidant and acetonitrile serving as a solvent. In the method, the reaction process is simple, and the equipment requirement is low; the Cu-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve is used as the catalyst, contributes to the dispersion of products and is easy to separate; and the H2O2 is used as the oxidant, and the byproduct is H2O, so that the method is environment-friendly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical synthesis technology, in particular to the synthesis technology of 2,3,5-trimethylbenzoquinone (TMBQ) or 2,3,5-trimethylhydroquinone (TMHQ). Background technique [0002] 2,3,5-Trimethylhydroquinone is an important intermediate for the synthesis of vitamin E. 2,3,5-Trimethylbenzoquinone can be reduced to 2,3,5-Trimethylhydroquinone. Vitamin E is widely used in medicine, health products, food, cosmetics, animal husbandry and other fields. [0003] At present, the synthetic methods of 2,3,5-trimethylhydroquinone mainly contain the following types: [0004] (1) Trimethylbenzene method [0005] Trimethylbenzene undergoes sulfonation, nitration, and hydrogenation reduction to 1,2,4-trimethyl-3,6-diaminobenzenesulfonic acid, and then oxidizes to 2,3,5-trimethylbenzoquinone , and finally hydrogenation reduction to obtain 2,3,5-trimethylhydroquinone. [0006] [0007] This process route has the ad...
