Embodiment 1

[0022] Add 2.5g of Raney nickel catalyst (3.4mL bulk volume) in the fixed-bed reactor, the ratio of the amount of acetophenone, methanol, water substance is 1: 15: 20 mixed liquid with the liquid hourly space velocity being 0.706 hours -1Add it into the reactor, adjust the reaction temperature to 120°C, and the reaction pressure to 0.4MPa. The product at the outlet of the reactor is separated from the liquid product by a gas-liquid separator. The conversion rate of ethyl ketone is 36.59%, the selectivity of α-phenylethanol is 83.81%, and the selectivity of by-product ethylbenzene is 16.19%.

Embodiment 2

[0024] Add 2.5g of Raney nickel catalyst (3.4mL bulk volume) in the fixed-bed reactor, the ratio of the amount of acetophenone, methanol, water substance is 1: 15: 20 mixed liquid with the liquid hourly space velocity being 0.706 hours -1 Add it into the reactor, adjust the reaction temperature to 130°C, and the reaction pressure to 0.52MPa. The product at the outlet of the reactor is separated from the liquid product by a gas-liquid separator, and the liquid product is analyzed by Agilent-GC-MS. The conversion rate of ethyl ketone was 40.41%, the selectivity of α-phenylethanol was 90.35%, and the selectivity of by-product ethylbenzene and α-cyclohexyl alcohol were 9.09% and 0.56%, respectively.

Embodiment 3

[0026] Add 2.5g of Raney nickel catalyst (3.4mL bulk volume) in the fixed-bed reactor, the ratio of the amount of acetophenone, methanol, water substance is 1: 15: 20 mixed liquid with the liquid hourly space velocity being 0.706 hours -1 Add it into the reactor, adjust the reaction temperature to 140 ° C, and the reaction pressure to 0.7 MPa. The product at the outlet of the reactor is separated from the liquid product by a gas-liquid separator. The conversion rate of ethyl ketone is 47.59%, the selectivity of α-phenylethanol is 77.35%, and the selectivity of by-product ethylbenzene, α-cyclohexyl ethanol, cyclohexyl ethyl ketone and cyclohexyl ethane are 22.06%, 0.29% respectively , 0.20% and 0.11%.

Abstract

The present invention relates to alpha-phenyl ethyl alcohol synthesizing process, and is especially one in-situ acetophenone hydrogenating process of synthesizing alpha-phenyl ethyl alcohol. Inside the mixed solution of C1-C4 fatty alcohol and water and under the action of Raney nickel catalyst, acetophenone is one-step reacted at 50-300 deg.c and 0.1-10.0 MPa to obtain alpha-phenyl ethyl alcohol. The weight ratio of acetophenone, C1-C4 fatty alcohol and water is 1 to 2.5-60 to 10-160. The present invention has the beneficial effects of no need of outer hydrogen supply, simple technological process, low production cost, use of non-noble metal Raney nickel catalyst, high acetophenone converting rate, high alpha-phenyl ethyl alcohol selectivity up to 90 %, less side products and capacity of separating high purity alpha-phenyl ethyl alcohol.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for synthesizing alpha-phenylethanol, in particular to a method for synthesizing alpha-phenylethanol by in-situ hydrogenation of acetophenone. (2) Background technology [0002] α-Phenylethyl alcohol is an important chemical product, which is widely used in pharmaceutical industry and fragrance manufacturing industry. In the fragrance manufacturing industry, α-phenylethanol is widely used for aroma reconciliation, and as the main component of rose fragrance, it is used in the synthesis of various rose oils and essential oils. α-Phenethyl alcohol is an important drug intermediate in the synthesis of many drugs, such as ibuprofen, an important raw material for the synthesis of non-steroidal sedative drugs. The existing α-phenylethanol synthesis methods include: organic synthesis and microbial fermentation. [0003] The organic synthesis method uses acetophenone as the starting material to react to obtain α-phenylet...
