[0005] Chinese patent CN110963908A discloses a method for preparing levulinic acid based on cellulose hydrolysis of molten salt hydrate. Converting cellulose in MIBK / LiCl can obtain a levulinic acid yield of more than 91.2%, but due to the higher boiling point of levulinic acid High, good solubility in hydrate molten salt, difficult to separate by conventional separation methods
In this patent, it is difficult to separate the complexing agent and co-solvent, etc., and waste water is generated
[0010] In the prior art, when biomass is converted into levulinic acid, every molecule of levulinic acid is accompanied by a molecule of formic acid, and it is difficult to effectively separate the levulinic acid and formic acid contained in the biomass conversion liquid

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for separating formic acid and levulinic acid from hydrate molten salt. The method comprises the following steps: reacting under the coexistence of levulinic acid, formic acid and alcohol in hydrate molten salt, respectively reacting formic acid and levulinic acid with alcohol to generate formate and levulinic acid ester, and carrying out ester exchange on formate and levulinic acid to generate levulinic acid ester and formic acid, after the reaction is finished, the reaction liquid contains levulinic acid ester, formate, levulinic acid, formic acid and alcohol, separating the reaction liquid to obtain an organic phase, distilling the organic phase to respectively obtain levulinic acid ester and formate, and hydrolyzing to respectively obtain levulinic acid and formic acid. The method is simple in technological process, low in energy consumption and easy to separate, and the product can be spontaneously separated from the hydrate molten salt, so that the subsequent purification cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, in particular to a method for separating formic acid and levulinic acid in hydrate molten salts. Background technique [0002] Biomass conversion to produce chemicals is the most promising high-value utilization method of biomass, which can partially replace fossil resources. Among the chemicals produced from biomass conversion, levulinic acid is considered as a high value-added chemical. Levulinic acid can be used to synthesize 1,4-pentanediol, 2-butanone, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, 3-hydroxypropionic acid, 5-nonanone, angelica lactone, bisphenolic acid, glycerol ketal ester oligomerization substances, levulinate, succinic acid, valeric acid and valeric acid salts, gamma-valerolactone and delta-aminolevulinic acid, etc. Due to its high performance, high flash point and good fluidity, it can be used as gasoline and diesel additives and has attracted much attention.
