Problems solved by technology

Since the amount of hydrochloric acid used in the reaction process is excessive relative to iminodiacetic acid, there is a large amount of hydrochloric acid in the system after the reaction, which is difficult to carry out post-treatment, and attempts to reduce the amount of hydrochloric acid have resulted in the production of diglyphosate rate dropped significantly
In addition, because hydrochloric acid is a volatile acid, it is easy to be volatile and lost in the production process of bisglyphosate and form a large amount of acid mist, which in turn brings many problems such as poor operating environment and easy corrosion of equipment.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for catalyzed synthesis of N-(phosphonomethyl) iminodiacetic acid by p-toluenesulfonic acid. The method comprises the following steps: by taking iminodiacetic acid, phosphorous acid and formaldehyde as raw materials, carrying out reaction at 100-120 DEG C under catalysis of p-toluenesulfonic acid; cooling a reaction liquid; crystallizing; carrying out solid separation to obtain the N-(phosphonomethyl) iminodiacetic acid; after concentrating mother liquor, supplementing the p-toluenesulfonic acid; and then, adding a reaction raw material for synthesis of next batch. According to the method disclosed by the invention, by adopting the p-toluenesulfonic acid to replace hydrochloric acid as a catalyst, the p-toluenesulfonic acid is high in boiling point and not easy to volatilize. In the production process, the p-toluenesulfonic acid is free from volatilization loss, and does not form acid mist, so that the operating environment is good and the equipment is not easy to corrode. In addition, the p-toluenesulfonic acid is great in water solubility, and the mother liquor which is appropriately concentrated can be directly used, thus not only is generation of a plenty of acid and salt containing wastewater avoided, but also the material loss is reduced and the production cost is lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical industry and relates to a method for synthesizing organic compounds. Background technique [0002] Diglyphosate (N-phosphoromethyliminodiacetic acid) is an important synthetic raw material for the broad-spectrum herbicide glyphosate (N-phosphoromethylglycine). The main synthesis method of bisglyphosate is to react iminodiacetic acid, phosphorous acid and formaldehyde under the catalysis of hydrochloric acid. Since the amount of hydrochloric acid used in the reaction process is excessive relative to iminodiacetic acid, there is a large amount of hydrochloric acid in the system after the reaction, which is difficult to carry out post-treatment, and attempts to reduce the amount of hydrochloric acid have resulted in the production of diglyphosate rate dropped significantly. In addition, because hydrochloric acid is a volatile acid, it is easy to be volatile and lost in the production process of bisglyphosat...
