Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the production cost of the enterprise is relatively high, and the long-term operation of the device cannot be guaranteed
In addition, the catalyst is only suitable for catalyzing the synthesis of o-cresol, and cannot be used for the production of 2,6-xylenol, or the co-production of the two

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing ortho-cresol and 2,6-dimethylphenol and is characterized in that a reaction mixed liquid at the mole ratio of phenol to methanol to water being 1: (2-5): (1-3) is pumped the into a reactor by the use of a pump at the feeding space velocity of 0.5-2 hr<-1>; N2 with the flow velocity of 10-25 mL/min is used as a carrier gas; and a vapor-phase alkylation reaction is carried out at the reaction pressure of normal pressure to 0.5 MPa at the reaction temperature of 320-380 DEG C and under the condition of an alkaline Fe/Mg/Sb composite oxide used as a catalyst. The method provided by the invention has advantages as follows: high average conversion rate of phenol, long one-way service life of the catalyst, high ortho-selectivity, and no generation of impurities m.p-cresol and anisole. In addition, the process is simple, and the method is suitable for continuous large-scale production of ortho-cresol, or reallocation of 2,6-dimethylphenol, or co-production of ortho-cresol and 2,6-dimethylphenol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing o-cresol and 2,6-xylenol, in particular to a method for preparing o-cresol and 2,6-xylenol by using phenol and methanol as raw materials. Background technique [0002] The ortho-methylated products of phenol include o-cresol and 2,6-xylenol, etc., which are important fine chemical intermediates. Among them, o-cresol is mainly used for the synthesis of o-cresol aldehyde resin, o-cresol aldehyde epoxy resin, phenoxy carboxylic acid herbicides (MCPA, MCPB, etc.), and can also be used for the production of o-hydroxybenzaldehyde, dyes, spices and antioxidants. 2,6-xylenol is mainly used in the synthesis of polyphenylene ether resin (PPO is one of the five major engineering plastics), 2,6-dimethylaniline (pesticide, dye intermediate) and Antioxidant etc. [0003] At present, the most important method for producing ortho-methylated phenolic compounds is the gas-phase method of phenol-methanol alkylation, that ...
