Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing methoxyacetone by using a microreaction device. The method comprises the following steps: mixing methanol with a basic catalyst to obtain a methanol solution; then pumping the methanol solution and epoxypropane into a micromixer in the microreaction device; sufficiently mixing and then introducing a mixed solution into a first microreactor in the microreaction device for reacting; after the reaction is ended, carrying out neutralizing and flash evaporation and concentration on a reaction solution to obtain 1-methoxy-2-propanol; pumping the 1-methoxy-2-propanol and an aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite into a second microreactor in the microreaction device for reacting to obtain the methoxyacetone. According to the preparation method of the methoxyacetone, disclosed by the invention, the problems in the existing production can be overcome, the use of a complex catalyst is avoided, and the content of a byproduct is reduced; the production cost is low, the continuation degree of the process is high; the safety of the production process can be substantially improved; the quality of a product is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical industry, and in particular relates to a method for preparing methoxyacetone by using a micro-reaction device. Background technique [0002] 1-methoxy-2-propanol, also known as propylene glycol monomethyl ether, has two groups with strong solubility in its chemical structure: ether bond and hydroxyl group. The former is hydrophobic and can dissolve hydrophobic compound; the latter is hydrophilic and can dissolve water-soluble substances. Therefore, propylene glycol ether is a versatile solvent with excellent performance, also known as a universal solvent. 1-methoxy-2-propanol has a faint ether smell, but no strong pungent smell, making it safer to use and can be used in many fields, such as high-grade paint solvents, printing ink viscosity regulators, metal cleaning agents, Auto water tank anti-icing fluid, etc. [0003] Alcohol ether compounds are a wide range of fine chemical products. Since the Europ...
