Abstract

The invention discloses a production method of tetrahydrofuran. The tetrahydrofuran is produced from coarse 1,4-butanediol containing 2-(4'-hydroxybutoxyl) tetrahydrofuran through continuously cyclodehydrating under the action of a palladium-supported sulfonated ion exchange resin catalyst in the presence of hydrogen. The palladium-supported sulfonated ion exchange resin catalyst generally contains 0.02-1.50% of palladium, the cyclodehydration is generally carried out under the reaction conditions that the hydrogen and the raw material (100% of 1,4-butanediol) are in the molar ratio of 1-100, the reaction temperature is 50-170 DEG C, the reaction pressure is 0.02-2.0MPa, and the liquid hour (volume) space velocity of 1,4-butanediol is 0.5-5.0h<-1>. According to the method, 1,4-butanediol containing 2-(4'-hydroxybutoxyl) tetrahydrofuran is used as a raw material, the high-selectivity tetrahydrofuran is produced continuously and stably in a long period under the condition of low temperature, and the method is suitable for industrial application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing tetrahydrofuran, in particular to a method for preparing tetrahydrofuran by dehydrating and cyclizing 1,4-butanediol as a raw material. Background technique [0002] Tetrahydrofuran (THF) is a low-toxic solvent with high polarity, low boiling point and excellent performance. It is widely used as a solvent for surface coatings, anti-corrosion coatings and film coatings. Its main purpose is to produce polytetramethylene ether glycol (PTMEG), polyurethane elastomers and polyurethane artificial leather, etc., are also used as solvents for esterification and polymerization reactions, as well as raw materials for some pharmaceutical intermediates such as hormone drugs. [0003] At present, the production methods of tetrahydrofuran include: furfural hydrogenation method, maleic anhydride direct hydrogenation method and 1,4-butanediol dehydration and cyclization method. Among them, the furfural method has been g...
