Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for synthesizing a benzoquinone compound through catalytic oxidation of a phenol compound, and belongs to the technical field of synthesis of benzoquinone compounds. The method comprises: adding a reactant phenol compound, a solvent, a solid catalyst (onion carbon and the like) and an oxidant t-butyl hydroperoxide into a reactor, carrying out ultrasonic treatment to form a suspension, heating the suspension to a temperature of 70-100 DEG C, carrying out a reaction for 2-16 h, separating the reaction mixture to obtain a solid catalyst and a liquid mixture containing the benzoquinone compound, and carrying out separation purification on the liquid mixture to obtain the product benzoquinone compound. According to the present invention, the operation process is simple, and the used non-metal catalyst has characteristics of no corrosion, low price, green environmental protection and recycling; and the methyl phenol conversion rate is high, and the selectivity of the target product methyl-p-benzoquinone is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of synthesis of benzoquinone compounds, in particular to a method for synthesizing benzoquinone compounds by catalytic oxidation of phenol compounds. Background technique [0002] Benzoquinone compounds are not only widely used in medical treatment, chemical industry, biological medicine, etc., but also an important organic intermediate. For example, the common 2,3,6-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone is the main intermediate of vitamin E. This type of p-benzoquinone has been produced abroad, while the 2,3,6-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone needed in China mainly relies on imports. 2,6-Dimethyl-1,4-p-benzoquinone is a highly active antioxidant with anti-aging and other medical effects. The current reports on the catalytic reaction of benzoquinones generally involve two methods: one is the direct oxidation of phenols. The U.S. patent application with the publication number US4360469 provides a method for preparing p-benzoqu...
