Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing alpha-isophorone. The method comprises the step of generating the condensation reaction by acetone under the alkaline catalysis to obtain the alpha-isophorone. The method is characterized in that the condensation reaction is performed in a water and dimethylbenzene mixed solvent system. According to the method, the condensation reaction is performed in the water and dimethylbenzene mixed solvent system; after the condensation reaction is performed for certain time, the selectivity of the alpha-isophorone is basically stabilized; even if the condensation reaction continues to be performed, the influence on the selectivity of the alpha-isophorone, mesityl oxide and isopropyl-ketol is very small; the phenomenon that a reaction endpoint is required to be controlled by the conventional synthesis method is avoided, and the method disclosed by the invention is suitable for industrial production. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the acetone conversion rate is 25-55 percent; the selectivity of the alpha-isophorone is 65-80 percent, and the total selectivity of the mesityl oxide and the isopropyl-ketol is 0.5-10 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing α-isophorone. Background technique [0002] α-Isophorone has a wide range of uses, and it is the raw material for plastics, adhesives, medicines, spices, epoxy resin curing agents, and paints. The synthesis of α-isophorone mainly adopts the liquid-phase condensation method, which is obtained by the alkali-catalyzed condensation of acetone. The existing methods mainly contain the following: [0003] In 1944, S.A. Ballard reported that using 20% ​​NaOH as a catalyst, reacting at 150°C for 3 hours, the conversion rate of acetone was 17%, and the selectivity of α-isophorone was 39%. In 1946, Ballard studied the concentration of different catalysts, the reaction The influence of time and feeding speed on the conversion rate of acetone and the selectivity of α-isophorone is obtained. The optimal condition is that acetone is reacted under 28% KOH aqueous solution for 40 minutes at 170 ° C, the conversio...
