Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for synthesizing malononitrile. Background Art
[0002] Malononitrile, with the chemical formula NCCH2CN, is a colorless crystalline powder, soluble in water, ethanol, benzene, and slightly soluble in chloroform and acetic acid. Malononitrile is the raw material for preparing 2-amino-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidine and 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidine. It can be used in pesticides to produce herbicides such as benzylsulfuron-methyl, pyrazosulfuron-methyl, nicosulfuron-methyl and bispyribac-butyl, etc. It is used in medicine to synthesize a series of important drugs such as vitamin B1, aminopterin, and triamterene, and can also be used as a gold extractant.
[0003] According to literature reports, the synthesis process of malononitrile can be roughly divided into two categories, namely, dehydration method and synthesis method.
[0004] CN107827777A provides a method of mixing cyanoacetamide, phosphorus oxychloride and solid phosgene to obtain a suspension, heating it to 50-90°C, performing a heat preservation reaction, and then performing a distillation treatment to obtain malononitrile. This method has high production cost, low yield, many wastes, difficult treatment, and expensive and difficult to obtain raw materials.
[0005] The malononitrile production technology of Mitsubishi Gas Corporation of Japan and the malononitrile production technology of Roessler AG of Germany provide a process using acetonitrile and cyanogen chloride as raw materials, with a reaction temperature of 700-1000°C. The reaction temperature is high, the equipment investment is large, the process control requirements are strict, and it is not easy to industrialize production. Summary of the invention
[0006] The present invention mainly aims to avoid the above disadvantages and provide a method for synthesizing malononitrile which has the advantages of simple process, convenient operation, low cost, less three wastes and easy industrial production.
[0007]
[0008] The steps of the present invention include the following:
[0009] The raw materials acetonitrile and cyanogen chloride are heated and gasified, and then introduced into a fixed bed reactor filled with a solid base catalyst. The temperature of the reactor is controlled at 200-500°C, and the reaction pressure is controlled at 1-15Mpa.
[0010] The molar ratio of the raw materials acetonitrile and cyanogen chloride is 1-15:1.
[0011] The solid base catalyst is selected from Cd(OAc)2 / Al2O3, Cd(OAc)2 / NaY, Ca(OAc)2 / Al2O3, Ca(OAc)2 / NaY, CaO / NaY, Li2CO3 / NaY, Li2CO3 / Al2O3, Li2CO3 / NaY, Pb(OAc)2 / Al2O3, Pb(OAc)2 / NaY, Mg(OAc)2 / Al2O3, MgO / Al2O3, Mg(O Ac)2 / NaY, LiOH / NaY, NaOH / artificial zeolite, NaOH / Al2O3, KNO3 / TiO2, KF / TiO2, K2CO3 / TiO2, K2CO3 / Al2O3, KF / Al2O3, KF / ZnO, Mn(NO3)2 / artificial zeolite, Mn(OAc)2 / Al2O3, Mn(OAc)2 / NaY, Zn(OAc)2 / Al2O3, Zn(OAc)2 / NaY.
[0012] The catalyst is preferably Cd(OAc)2 / Al2O3, Ca(OAc)2 / Al2O3, Li2CO3 / Al2O3, Mg(OAc)2 / Al2O3, NaOH / Al2O3, Mn(OAc)2 / NaY, Cd(OAc)2 / NaY, K2CO3 / Al2O3, KF / Al2O3.
[0013] The reaction temperature is 200-500°C, preferably 280-400°C.
[0014] The reaction pressure is 1-15 MPa, preferably 5-10 MPa.
[0015] In the prior art, the conventional reaction temperature of this route is basically 700-1000°C, which is relatively high. However, after the present invention adopts the above catalyst and fixed bed reactor, the reaction temperature is greatly reduced and the reaction efficiency is improved.
[0016] More preferably, the reaction of the present invention is carried out using a continuous production process system, and the continuous production process system is specifically as follows: the continuous production process device includes a first raw material feed pump and a second raw material feed pump connected in parallel to a mixer according to the direction of the reaction materials, the mixer is subsequently connected to a first heat exchanger, and then to a first heating furnace, and then to a first fixed bed reactor, the outlet of the first fixed bed reactor is connected to the first heat exchanger through a pipeline and then to a gas-liquid separator, the liquid phase outlet of the gas-liquid separator is connected to a distillation tower via a product output pump; the gas phase outlet of the gas-liquid separator is connected to a low-temperature gas-liquid separator via a condenser, the liquid phase outlet of the low-temperature gas-liquid separator is connected to a second heat exchanger via a two-stage feed pump, and then to a second fixed bed reactor via a second heating furnace, and the outlet of the second fixed bed reactor is connected to the outlet pipeline of the first fixed bed reactor.
[0017] The outlet of the first fixed bed reactor is connected to the gas-liquid separator by a pipeline, and a regulating valve is provided, through which the heat exchange efficiency or the post-reaction material processing efficiency can be controlled by adjusting whether (or how much) the post-reaction material passes through the heat exchanger.
[0018] The distillation tower is provided with a reflux tank.
[0019] The process steps of the above continuous production process system specifically include:
[0020] (1) The raw materials acetonitrile and cyanogen chloride are heated and gasified, and then introduced into a first fixed bed reactor filled with a solid base catalyst. The reactor temperature is controlled at 200-500° C., and the reaction pressure is controlled at 1-15 MPa.
[0021] (2) After passing through the first fixed bed reactor, the reaction mixture is passed through a heat exchanger to be cooled to 100-200°C, and then enters a gas-liquid separator to separate the liquid product malononitrile and send it to a distillation tower for refined product. The uncondensed gas phase is passed through a condenser to continue cooling to 0-10°C, and then enters a low-temperature gas-liquid separator to discharge the by-product hydrogen chloride gas. The liquid raw material is pumped into a heat exchanger and a heating furnace for gasification and then enters a second fixed bed reactor. The reaction mixture is mixed with the reaction material of the first fixed bed reactor for a cyclic reaction.
[0022] The reaction temperature of the first fixed bed reactor and the second fixed bed reactor is set to 200-500°C, preferably 280-400°C.
[0023] The reaction temperature of the first fixed bed reactor and the second fixed bed reactor are set to a reaction pressure of 1 to 15 MPa, preferably 5 to 10 MPa.
[0024] The fixed bed reactor continuously feeds and discharges materials, and the conversion rate is difficult to reach 100%. In order to improve the utilization rate of raw materials, the residual raw materials are separated and recycled into the second fixed bed reactor for reaction. If the raw materials enter the first fixed bed reactor, part of the raw materials have been reacted, and the raw material ratio cannot be controlled. A separate fixed bed reaction is used to react the residual raw materials.
[0025] This route uses a fixed bed catalyst to lower the reaction temperature and make the reaction milder. The device described in this article reuses the raw materials that have not reacted completely, improves the utilization rate of the product and reduces the cost. At the same time, the heat exchanger and other devices set therein make full use of the waste heat resources in the reaction process, provide part of the heat energy for the overall reaction cycle, and maximize the recycling of heat energy resources.
[0026] The acetonitrile and cyanogen chloride feeds are controlled at low temperature as liquid feeds, pumped into the mixer for mixing, and enter the first heating furnace after heat exchange in the first heat exchanger. They are heated to a specified temperature in the first heating furnace, enter the reactor from the top of the first reactor, leave the first reactor from the bottom after the reaction, and mix with the mixture output from the second reactor.
[0027] The output mixture cooled by the first heat exchanger enters the gas-liquid separator, and the product is output from the lower layer. It enters the distillation tower through the product pump for further separation and refinement. The gas phase passes through the condenser and enters the low-temperature gas-liquid separator.
[0028] After passing through the low-temperature gas-liquid separator, the by-product hydrogen chloride gas is released from the upper layer, and the incompletely reacted raw materials are separated from the lower layer. Under the action of the pump, it re-enters the second heat exchanger for heat exchange and then enters the second heating furnace. It is heated to the specified temperature in the second heating furnace and enters the reactor from the upper part of the second reactor. After the reaction, it leaves the second reactor from the bottom and mixes with the mixture produced by the first reactor. After separation in the distillation tower, the pure product of malononitrile is output from the upper layer. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
