Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing guaiacol. The method comprises the following steps: adding a phosphorus-containing compound used as a catalytic component into a catechol-methanol mixed gas phase in the gas-phase form, and performing etherification on the catechol at the reaction temperature of not higher than 275 DEG C to produce the guaiacol. The method can avoid the overhigh local concentration of the phosphorus-containing compound in the reactor and prevent the catechol from carbon precipitation, so that the gas-phase catalytic synthesis process of the guaiacol can be implemented stably for a long time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a production method of guaiacol, in particular to gas-phase catalytic synthesis of guaiacol. The invention uses the phosphorus-containing compound as the catalyst component, the inert solid as the catalyst carrier, and realizes long-term stable guaiacol catalytic production through a specific catalyst adding method. Background technique [0002] Guaiacol, or o-methoxyphenol, is an important fine chemical intermediate widely used in the synthesis of medicines, spices and dyes, especially as a component in the production of spices (such as vanillin) and pharmaceuticals. Important raw materials and intermediates. The main production process of guaiacol is the diazotization-hydrolysis process, that is, the raw material anthranil is diazotized and hydrolyzed to obtain guaiacol. Both CN97118908.0 and CN03141536.9 relate to the diazonium salt hydrolysis process and its improvement. However, these diazonium hydrolysis processes all h...
