Embodiment 1

[0022] 1) Oxidation of m-p-cresol mixture: with m-p-cresol mixture (1.08g, m-cresol: p-cresol=1:1, molar ratio), catalyst (4.5wt%) and solvent (acetonitrile: 80ml and water : 4ml) into the autoclave, close the autoclave and start stirring, fill with oxygen to 1.0MPa, heat up to 40°C and keep for 8 hours. Cool to room temperature after the reaction is over, vent the gas and open the reactor to collect the mother liquor after the reaction;

Abstract

The invention provides a method for separating an m,p-cresol mixture by adopting a selective oxidation catalyst. According to the method, the m,p-cresol mixture can be oxidized by using the selectiveoxidation catalyst, m-cresol in the mixture is completely oxidized into a benzoquinone compound, and p-cresol does not react. After the oxidation reaction is carried out, the boiling point differencebetween the benzoquinone compound (186-187 DEG C) and the p-cresol is significant, therefore, the complete separation of the p-cresol can be achieved through rectification. According to the separationmethod, during the oxidation reaction, oxygen or air is used as an oxidizing agent, the reaction conditions are very mild, the reaction operation is simple, the production cost is low, and the industrial production is easy. In addition, the generated benzoquinone compound through the reaction is an important dye and a raw material of an antioxidant, the high added value utilization can be achieved, and the economic benefit is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical industry, and in particular relates to a method for separating m-p-cresol mixture by using a selective oxidation catalyst. Background technique [0002] P-cresol is an important fine chemical raw material and auxiliary agent. It has important uses in synthetic plastics, dyes, antioxidants, etc. It is also used as a raw material for disinfectants and preservatives in medicine. Therefore, the preparation of pure p-cresol monomer has attracted much attention. However, in industrial production, p-cresol is generally sold as a mixture with m-cresol, and the required pure p-cresol monomer needs further separation and purification to obtain. In the process of separating mixed cresols, since the difference between m-cresol and p-cresol is only 0.4°C in boiling point and 24.6°C in melting point, it is difficult to separate them by ordinary distillation or rectification techniques, so it is necessary to find a suit...
