Problems solved by technology

This method of increasing the amount of oxidant not only increases the cost of raw materials, but also the remaining TBHP is difficult to handle, which is uneconomical in technology
[0008] Second, it is difficult to control the process conditions
Therefore, although this method of adopting a lower reaction temperature can improve product selectivity, the reaction cycle is long, which is unfavorable to industrialization; but if the temperature is increased to shorten the production cycle, the half-life of TBHP will be shortened, and in the reaction process Part of TBHP decomposes, which requires increasing the amount of TBHP fed at the initial stage to increase production costs. At the same time, the oxygen generated by TBHP decomposition can oxidize olefins under catalyst and reaction conditions, resulting in increased by-products, decreased selectivity of main products, and difficulty in separation. increase
[0009] Third, the cases of TBHP epoxidation of cyclododecene reported in the literature are all batch processes, unless a large excess of TBHP is used, it is difficult to achieve high conversion and selectivity at the same time
[0010] The above problems have caused obstacles to the industrial promotion of utilizing TBHP to produce epoxycyclododecane

Embodiment 1～7

[0051] use figure 1 In the continuous tank reactor shown, where n=3, the reactor is connected in series with four tanks, and the volume of each tank is 1L. Cyclododecene is 0.616kg / h, and the amount of molybdenum acetylacetonate as catalyst is 0.1wt%, based on the weight of cyclododecene. The tert-butanol solution with a TBHP concentration of 50wt% is added according to the total feed amount shown in Table 1 and distributed through the C1-C3 feed inlets, with an average residence time of about 2 hours and a temperature of 110°C. Add cyclohexene 0.152kg / h from B port to the fourth kettle (cyclohexene: cyclododecene=1:2), the residence time is about 0.6h, and the temperature is 90°C. The discharge of discharge port D was analyzed, and the results are shown in Table 1.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of preparing 1,2-epoxycyclododecane through epoxidation cyclododecene by utilization of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). According to the method, addition of the TBHP is controlled under the existence of a catalyst, and the system concentration of an oxidant is controlled by adopting a batch addition manner to reduce generation of side reactions, thus ensuring complete conversion of the cyclododecene and achieving high selectivity of the main product 1,2-epoxycyclododecane. The excess TBHP is converted by adding another low-molecular-weight olefin to cogenerate a low-molecular-weight epoxy compound, thus ensuring safety of subsequent separation and facilitating process amplification.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing epoxycyclododecane by epoxidation of cyclododecene, more specifically, the present invention relates to a method for continuous production of cyclododecene by epoxidation of cyclododecene with tert-butyl hydroperoxide Method for epoxycyclododecane. Background technique [0002] Epoxycyclododecane is an important chemical intermediate for the preparation of cyclododecanone and its derived muscone, laurolactam, and further products such as musk and nylon 12. [0003] Oxygen and hydrogen peroxide are often used as oxygen sources for olefin epoxidation in industry. Although oxygen is the most ideal oxidant, it is difficult to obtain satisfactory results for direct epoxidation of other olefins with oxygen except ethylene. For example, in US4469880, it is mentioned that a metal borate is used as a catalyst and oxygen is an oxygen source to carry out an epoxidation reaction process of cyclododecene. Th...
