Problems solved by technology

The esterification yield of this reaction is 55% to 61%, the reaction time is long, the raw material price is high, and the toxicity is high, which is not conducive to industrial production
The direct esterification of diethylene glycol and formic acid is a method commonly used in industry at present. It uses toluene, cyclohexane, and benzene as dehydrating agents, and uses Lewis acid catalysts such as zinc chloride, ferric chloride, and p-toluenesulfonic acid as catalysts. , the disadvantage of this method is that it produces acid-containing wastewater, which seriously corrodes equipment and pollutes the environment, and under acidic catalysts and high temperatures (temperatures greater than 130 ° C), diethylene glycol and diethylene glycol monocarboxylate are prone to dehydration reactions, resulting in by-products. The product increases the difficulty of purification

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for synthesizing diethyleneglycol diformate by a composite catalyst. The synthesis method is characterized in that butyl chloroformate and ethylene glycol are taken as raw materials, diethyleneglycol diformate is generated through ester exchange under the action of a compositecatalyst, and a by-product is diglycol monoformate, and thus the synthesis method solves a problem that a conventional catalyst is difficult to react and has low yield. The mass fraction yield of diethyleneglycol diformate is above 90%; diethyleneglycol diformate is mild in reaction condition and high in yield, has no corrosion and environmental pollution, and is easy to separate and purify the product; the separation and purification process is simple and low in energy consumption; in a reaction process, raw materials can be reused,so that a production cost is saved; besides, with mature production technologies and abundance and cheap price of raw material resources, the synthesis method is convenient to achieve extensive industrialization production in the future.
