Problems solved by technology

In contrast, no positive effect on yield and selectivity was observed for catalysts produced by impregnation with an alkali metal tungstate loading of 45% by weight or more based on the total weight of the catalyst
However, the high yields and selectivities in the production of methyl mercaptan achieved with the catalyst of WO 2013 / 092129 A1 did not last long
In contrast, a rapid decrease in methanol conversion and selectivity to methyl mercaptan was observed, accompanied by an increase in the formation of the by-product dimethyl ether

Embodiment 1

[0070] Embodiment 1 (comparative example):

[0071] As described in Example 2 (Comparative Example) on page 17 of WO 2013 / 092129 A1, when using 17.8% by weight of WO based on the total mass of the catalyst 3 and 17.3 wt% Cs 2 In the three-stage impregnation of O, impregnate 200 g of spherical alumina with a particle size of 2-5 mm (Spheralite 501A from Axens, with a pore volume of 45 ml / 100 g and a bulk density of 815 kg / m 3 ). The procedure adopted is as follows: 62.2g of tungstic acid is suspended in 130.4g of ammonia solution, and dissolved by stirring for about 30 minutes. To this solution was added 89.3 g of cesium hydroxide in water (70%), and the resulting solution was stirred for about 23-24 hours. Alumina was initially fed into a glass vessel evacuated to 150 mbar. The impregnation solution was aspirated off by opening the tap until there was approximately 4.5 cm of supernatant of the impregnation solution over the entire alumina. The glass vessel was vented unde...

Embodiment 2

[0072] Embodiment 2 (comparative example):

[0073] As described in Example 6 on pages 18 and 19 of WO 2013 / 092129 A1, 1.05 kg of powdered alumina (Spheralite 509A from Axens with a specific surface area of ​​335 m 2 / g, the pore volume is 56ml / 100g, and the bulk density is 840kg / m 3 ) is first mixed with solid tungstic acid, and then the mixture thus obtained is mixed with an aqueous calcium hydroxide solution. The steps it adopts are as follows: 1.05kg Spheralite 509A and 537.9g ​​solid tungstic acid are kneaded at 40 rev / min and 11 rev / min in laboratory batch kneader (Coperion LUK 2.5, Weinheim, Stuttgart, Germany) Back pointing) to mix under the unloading screw, and the barrel of the kneader is cooled to 10°C with a cryostat. Then 740.5 g of a 70% by weight aqueous solution of cesium hydroxide were added over a period of 1 minute of continuous mixing, with a temporary temperature increase of 30-40°C. 10 minutes after the addition was complete, 127.5 grams of deionized wat...

[0074] Embodiment 3 (the present invention):

[0075] 150 g of powdered alumina (Spheralite 509A from Axens with a specific surface area of ​​335 m 2 / g, the pore volume is 56ml / 100g, and the bulk density is 840kg / m 3 ) with the WO of 17.8wt% based on the total mass of the catalyst 3 and 17.3 wt% Cs 2 O impregnation. The steps adopted are as follows: 63.8g of tungstic acid is dissolved in 127.7g of 25% ammonia solution. To this solution was added 121.3 g of cesium hydroxide aqueous solution (50.48%), and the solution was stirred for 24 hours. The solution was then brought to a volume of 243 ml by adding water. The solution thus obtained is called impregnation solution. The impregnation solution was first fed into a glass vessel and the alumina was added with constant stirring. Fifteen minutes after the addition was complete, the suspension was filtered off through a blue ribbon filter in a Nutsche filter. The filter cake was then dried at 120 °C for 3 hours to remove r...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a process for the production of a catalyst comprising at least one alkali metal and at least one transition metal in oxidized form, to a catalyst obtained or obtainable by the process according to the present invention, and to the catalyst in the presence of an alkyl Use in the production of mercaptans. Background technique [0002] Alkylthiols, which are also used synonymously with the term alkanethiol in the context of the present invention, are organic compounds having at least one aliphatically bonded thiol group (—SH) as functional group. Alkylthiols can thus be considered formally as alcohols in which the oxygen atoms are replaced by sulfur atoms. In addition to their diverse potential for direct applications, the importance of alkylthiols in organic chemistry stems notably from their status as important intermediates for the synthesis of other organic compounds with corresponding added value. Examples thereof a...
