Abstract

The invention discloses a purification method of a crude pyridine. The crude pyridine is mixed with air according to the molar ratio that is 1:50 to 150 after evaporization, and passes through oxidation catalyst for reaction in the gas-phase space velocity of 300 to 1000h<-1> under the temperature that is 250 to 400 DEG C, the rectification is performed after the reaction, the distillation cut of 115.5 DEG C is collected under the normal atmosphere, and then pure pyridine is obtained. The purification method has simple operation, can obtain high-purity pyridine with the content of 99.9 percent, and can be used in continuous large-scale production.
