Problems solved by technology

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems of environmental pollution, equipment corrosion and low acidity of a single ionic liquid, which are not as good as industrial alkylation catalysts such as sulfuric acid and hydrofluoric acid, caused by conventional acid catalysis in the current 4-TBC synthesis. A method for synthesizing p-tert-butylcatechol with mixed acid catalyst system containing ionic liquid
This process enhances the acidity of the ionic liquid, which not only solves the disadvantage of weak catalytic acidity of a single ionic liquid, but also solves the problem of corrosion of metal equipment, saves complicated post-treatment procedures such as neutralization and washing, reduces environmental pollution, and the catalyst is used Small amount, good stability, easy recycling, and reduced production costs

Abstract

The invention provides a method for synthesizing para-tert-butylcatechol by using an acid-mixed mixed system containing ionic liquid, which comprises the following steps: stirring, heating and melting catechol and an acid-mixed catalyst, adding an alkylating agent in a droplet mode within 30 min, performing condensation backflow reaction for 60-150 min under the temperature of 110-150 DEG C, extracting reaction liquid to separate the ionic liquid for recycling, performing extract-phase reduced pressure distillation and purification and finally obtaining the para-tert-butylcatechol, wherein the mole ratio of the catechol to the alkylating agent to the acid-mixed catalyst is 1:0.5-2.0:0.01-0.1. The acid-mixed catalyst is formed by mixing two types of acidic ionic liquid or mixing acidic ionic liquid and bronsted acid. The method for synthesizing the para-tert-butylcatechol by using the acid-mixed mixed system containing the ionic liquid overcomes the defect that simple ionic liquid is weak in acidity and poor in catalysis effect, facilitates catalytic alkylation reaction and is small in corrosivity and environmental pollution, the conversion rate of the catechol reaches up to 87.2%, and the selectivity of 4-para-tert-butylcatechol (4-TBC) reaches up to 77.3%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of synthesis of fine chemicals, in particular to a method for synthesizing p-tert-butylcatechol with a mixed acid catalyst system containing ionic liquid. Background technique [0002] 4-tert-butylcatechol (4-TBC for short) is a white or light yellow crystal, soluble in acetone, methanol, ethanol and other organic solvents, insoluble in water. As an important fine chemical product, it is mainly used as a high-efficiency polymerization inhibitor. The American ASTM Association designated it as a general-purpose polymerization inhibitor such as styrene, and can be used as an antioxidant for polypropylene, synthetic rubber, lubricating oil, caprolactam, etc. Agents are widely used in the chemical industry. At present, the main synthesis method of 4-TBC is the alkylation reaction of catechol. In the research work of synthesizing 4-TBC, the development of alkylation catalyst has received more and more attention. ...
