Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of group IV B metal organic compounds, and particularly relates to a method for preparing tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium. Background Art

[0002] Tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium (TDMAHf), a high-purity hafnium-based precursor, has important applications in semiconductor manufacturing processes, particularly atomic layer deposition (ALD). Cyclopentadienyltris(dimethylamino)hafnium (CpHf) is often synthesized industrially through a ligand exchange reaction between TDMAHf and cyclopentadiene monomer or metal compounds containing cyclopentadienyl groups.

[0003] During the synthesis of CpHf, some TDMAHf fails to coordinate with the cyclopentadiene monomer, resulting in unreacted TDMAHf in the reaction wastewater after the reaction. Industrially, crude TDMAHf is typically separated and recovered from the reaction wastewater using vacuum distillation. However, due to trace metal impurities (such as Fe and Ti) inherent in the raw materials, and the potential introduction of additional impurities due to equipment corrosion during the high-temperature reaction and distillation processes, the resulting crude TDMAHf product can contain significantly excessive levels of Fe and Ti impurities, making it difficult to meet the stringent purity requirements for semiconductor-grade precursors. This presents significant obstacles to the recovery and reuse of the precursor from the wastewater.

[0004] Existing purification technologies (such as conventional distillation and molecular sieve adsorption) have limited effectiveness in removing metal impurities, mainly because the boiling points of Fe and Ti impurities are close to those of TDMAHf, making conventional distillation difficult to achieve effective separation. In addition, metal impurities may exist in the form of complexes or colloidal particles, and traditional adsorption methods have poor selectivity and insufficient capacity.

[0005] Therefore, developing a refining method that can efficiently and deeply remove impurity elements, especially Fe and Ti impurities, from crude TDMAHf is of great significance for achieving high-value recovery of TDMAHf, improving raw material utilization, and ensuring the security of the semiconductor precursor supply chain. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to provide a method for preparing tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium to address the problem of high impurity content and difficulty in removing tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium recovered from CpHf synthesis wastewater. By sequentially subjecting the tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium separated from the wastewater to distillation, recrystallization, and fractionation treatments, and further optimizing process parameters and other process conditions, the recovered tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium can achieve a purity of 6N or higher.

[0032] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] Unless otherwise specified, in the following examples and comparative examples, the crude tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium product is derived from the fore-distillate wastewater of the CpHf production process, wherein the Fe content is 2.825 ppm and the Ti content is 0.217 ppm. The collection rate unit d / min means drops per minute, and the weight of every 20 drops is approximately 1 g.

[0034] Example 1

[0036] S1. Set up the distillation apparatus and check for leaks. Pump 2.353 kg of tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium crude product into the distillation kettle under negative pressure. Evacuate the kettle to 0.8 mbar. Open -10°C condensate and heat the kettle until the kettle temperature is about 90°C and the tower top temperature rises to about 40°C. Collect the front fraction at a rate of 30 d / min, and the collected amount is 10% of the crude product quality. After the end, transfer the main fraction once. Under nitrogen protection, control the main fraction collection rate at 45 d / min, and the collected amount is 80% of the crude product quality (about 1.882 kg). Stop the distillation and turn off the heating when there is basically no reflux in the kettle. Change the product receiving bottle under nitrogen protection. After the temperature in the kettle basically drops to room temperature, the back fraction can be obtained.

[0037] S2. Use n-hexane to completely dissolve the primary main fraction. The amount of n-hexane used is twice the total mass of the primary main fraction. Store the mixture in a sealed container at 2°C for 48 hours for recrystallization. Then, remove the crystals and rinse the crystal surface with n-hexane to rinse away the remaining mother liquor. After rinsing, vacuum remove the n-hexane on the crystal surface to obtain tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium crystals (about 1.712 kg).

[0038] S3. Set up the distillation device and check for leaks. After the crystals obtained in S2 are completely melted, they are pumped into the distillation kettle with negative pressure. The kettle is evacuated to 0.8 mbar. -10℃ condensate is turned on and the kettle is heated until the temperature in the distillation kettle is about 95℃ and the temperature at the top of the tower is raised to about 40℃. The secondary front distillate is collected at a rate of 30 d / min, and the collection amount is 10% of the feed mass. After the end, the main distillate is transferred. Under nitrogen protection, the collection speed of the secondary main distillate is controlled at 40 d / min, and the collection amount is 85% of the feed mass (about 1.456 kg). When there is basically no reflux in the kettle, the distillation is stopped and the heating is turned off. The product receiving bottle is replaced under nitrogen protection. The temperature in the kettle is basically reduced to room temperature.

Stop the distillation and turn off the heating when there is basically no reflux in the kettle. Change the product receiving bottle under nitrogen protection. After the temperature in the kettle basically drops to room temperature, the back fraction can be obtained.

[0045] S2. Use n-hexane to completely dissolve the primary main fraction. The amount of n-hexane used is 1.5 times the mass of the primary main fraction. Store it in a sealed container at 5°C for 24 hours for recrystallization. Then take out the crystals and rinse the crystal surface with n-hexane to rinse away the remaining mother liquor. After rinsing, use vacuum to remove the n-hexane on the crystal surface to obtain tetrakis(dimethylamino)hafnium crystals (1.588 kg).
