Problems solved by technology

[0013] The above reaction formulas (1) and (2) are controlled by thermodynamic equilibrium, and the conversion rate is relatively low. Among them, the conversion rate of formula (1) is about 15% at 10° C., and the selectivity is 90% to 95%.
The three-step method can only be carried out in different reactors due to the different mechanism of each step, and the reaction conditions and catalysts are different. The production process is long, the process is complicated, the production efficiency is low, and the product cost is high.
Due to the limitations of the one-step method, the presence of by-products such as 2-methylpentane, IPA, MO, and DIBK in the product affects the purity of the target product, resulting in difficulties in the purification and separation of MIBK, which increases production costs

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for synthesizing methyl isobutyl ketone from acetone by a two-step process. The method comprises the following steps: a fixed bed catalytic condensation reactor is filled with a solid catalyst, and acetone used as a reaction raw material is subjected to condensation-dehydration reaction on the catalytic condensation reaction bed to generate mesityl oxide and water; the product from the reactor enters a molecular sieve adsorption dehydration tank; the organic oil phase after dehydration enters a second fixed bed catalytic condensation reactor, and the acetone is further subjected to condensation-dehydration reaction to generate mesityl oxide and water; and the product enters a fixed bed catalytic hydrogenation reactor, the mesityl oxide is subjected to selective hydrogenation reaction on a Pd / Al2O3 catalyst to generate methyl isobutyl ketone, and the hydrogenation product is sent into a subsequent rectification separation system and subjected to separation to obtain the methyl isobutyl ketone product with the purity of greater than 99%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for synthesizing methyl isobutyl ketone by a two-step method from acetone. Background technique [0002] Methyl isobutyl ketone (abbreviated as MIBK) is an important organic solvent used for dewaxing waxy oil in paints, and is also one of the raw materials for the production of rubber antioxidants, resin coatings, and can also be used as a solvent for the production of tetracycline and penicillin. In oil refining, it is widely used as a petroleum dewaxing agent for the production of refined paraffin. [0003] The traditional production method of MIBK is a three-step method: [0004] The first step: Two molecules of acetone (abbreviated as AC) are condensed under the action of a basic catalyst to generate one molecule of diacetone alcohol, referred to as DAA. [0005] 2CH 3 COCH 3 →(CH 3 ) 2 COHCH 2 COCH 3 (1) [0006] AC DAA [0007] Second step: diacetone alcohol is dehydrated under the action of an acid...
