Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing isophorone by acetone liquid condensation with an alkali catalyst. The method comprises steps of: heating an aqueous solution of acetone and the alkali catalyst to 230-280 DEG C under continuous stable operation conditions; controlling the pressure to maintain the acetone and water in liquid phase state; then introducing the two together through a mixer and a micro channel reactor with a total staying time of 3-15 min; carrying out a condensation reaction on the acetone with catalysis effect of the alkali catalyst to generate isophorone; and sending the reaction products into a reaction rectifying tower, removing unreacted acetone and hydrolyzing high boiling products with carbon atom number higher than 12, so as to obtain the isophorone crude product in a column bottom. A acetone one-way conversion rate exceeds 20%, and isophorone effective selectivity reaches higher than 90%. The method of the invention generates good mass transfer and heat transfer effects and has accurately controlled reaction time, high one-way conversion rate and good effective selectivity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing isophorone, in particular to a method for preparing isophorone by liquid-phase condensation of acetone under an alkaline catalyst. Background technique [0002] Isophorone, chemical name: 3,5,5-trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one, molecular formula C9H14O. Isophorone is one of the important products of deep processing of acetone. It has strong dissolving ability, good dispersibility and good leveling property, and it is a good solvent for various polymer materials. Because of its structure of conjugated unsaturated ketone, it can be further reacted to obtain important products such as alcohols, acids, amines, esters and isocyanates, which are widely used in industrial fields such as polyurethane elastomers, medicine, coatings, and adhesives. [0003] As an important fine chemical raw material, isophorone has developed rapidly in developed countries since the 1990s, and is currently widely used in industrially d...
