Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fine chemical technology, and in particular to an apparatus and method for preparing methanesulfonyl fluoride. Background Technology

[0002] Methylsulfonyl fluoride is an important raw material for fine chemical synthesis. It is insoluble in water but soluble in hydrogen fluoride. It can be used to prepare trifluoromethylsulfonyl fluoride by electrochemical fluorination. At present, the main preparation method of methylsulfonyl fluoride is to fluorinate methylsulfonyl chloride in an aqueous solution of potassium fluoride. Potassium fluoride is used as a reactant, so that the chlorine in methylsulfonyl chloride is replaced by fluorine, thereby obtaining methylsulfonyl fluoride.

[0003] The disadvantages of this preparation process are as follows: 1. Since the fluorination process is carried out in an aqueous solution, some methanesulfonyl chloride will undergo hydrolysis, resulting in a relatively low yield; 2. Since the fluorination process is not a homogeneous reaction, it will separate into an aqueous phase and an organic phase, leading to incomplete reaction; 3. The methanesulfonyl fluoride obtained by this method has low purity, and the solution after the reaction contains aqueous solutions of potassium chloride and potassium fluoride, requiring further purification; 4. Due to the excess of potassium fluoride, the aqueous solution of potassium chloride after the reaction will contain a small amount of potassium fluoride, as well as impurities produced by the hydrolysis of methanesulfonyl chloride, which cannot be directly recycled, thus generating waste. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an apparatus and method for preparing methanesulfonyl fluoride to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the specific technical solution of the methanesulfonyl fluoride preparation apparatus and method of the present invention is as follows:

The methanesulfonyl chloride metering tank, the reaction filtration device, and the distillation and drying device are connected in sequence. The outlet of the distillation and drying device is connected to the methanesulfonyl fluoride condenser and the ethylene glycol condenser. The methanesulfonyl fluoride storage tank is connected below the methanesulfonyl fluoride condenser, and the ethylene glycol storage tank is connected below the ethylene glycol condenser. The reaction filtration device consists of a tank body and a cover. A stirring assembly is provided inside the reaction filtration device. A discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the tank body through a discharge port. A filter screen is provided inside the discharge pipe. A movable channel is provided on the discharge pipe. A sliding rod is fixed on the inner wall of the movable channel. A top plate connected to the filter screen is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the sliding rod through a reset mechanism. A rotating motor is fixed on the inner wall of the movable channel. The rotating motor cooperates with the top plate through a lifting mechanism.

[0007] Preferably, the reset mechanism includes a reset spring sleeved on the outside of the slide bar, with both ends of the reset spring elastically connected to the outer wall of the top plate and the inner wall of the movable channel, respectively.

[0008] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a cam connected to the output shaft of a rotating motor, and the bottom wall of the top plate is provided with a pressing groove corresponding to the cam.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting ring fixedly disposed on the outer wall of the mounting ring, and the inner wall of the jacket is provided with a limiting groove corresponding to the limiting ring.

[0011] Preferably, the support mechanism includes a support frame disposed inside the tank body, and the upper end face of the support frame is provided with a support groove that cooperates with the stirring shaft.

[0012] This invention also provides a method for preparing methanesulfonyl fluoride, comprising the following steps:

[0013] S1. Addition process: Add sodium fluoride and ethylene glycol to the reaction filter, and then add methanesulfonyl chloride dropwise to the reaction filter;

[0014] S2. Filtration: Filter the product after the reaction in step S1, and leave the excess sodium fluoride in the reaction filter for reuse next time.

[0015] S3. Distillation treatment: The filtrate is distilled and dried. During the distillation and drying process, the solid material obtained by evaporation includes sodium chloride, and the liquid material obtained by distillation and condensation includes methanesulfonyl fluoride and ethylene glycol. The ethylene glycol is recovered and recycled.

[0016] Preferably, the weight ratio of sodium fluoride to ethylene glycol is 1:(1.05-1.15), and the molar ratio of methanesulfonyl chloride to sodium fluoride is 1:(1.05-1.15).

[0022] 3. By setting up components such as cams and top plates, vibration can be generated by these components when the filter mesh is clogged, thereby shaking off the blockage and ensuring its filtration capacity.

[0023] 4. By using sodium fluoride, the solids are better dispersed in the later stage of distillation, thereby reducing the possibility of potassium chloride solids encapsulating the product in the later stage of distillation, thus improving the yield and reducing production costs.

[0024] 5. By setting a jacket and water pipes on the stirring assembly, and cooperating with the external heat exchange tubes of the reaction filtration device, a dual internal and external heat exchange and cooling treatment is achieved, ensuring the cooling effect and efficiency.

[0056] Comparative Example 1

[0057] A method for preparing methanesulfonyl fluoride uses a reactor without a filtration device as the reaction apparatus. The remaining apparatus is identical, including: a methanesulfonyl chloride metering tank 1, a reactor, a distillation and drying apparatus 3, a methanesulfonyl fluoride condenser 4, a methanesulfonyl fluoride storage tank 5, an ethylene glycol condenser 6, and an ethylene glycol storage tank 7. The specific preparation method includes the following steps:

[0058] Sodium fluoride and ethylene glycol were added to the reactor, and then methanesulfonyl chloride was added dropwise to the reactor. The weight ratio of sodium fluoride to ethylene glycol was 1:1.1, and the molar ratio of methanesulfonyl chloride to sodium fluoride was 1:1.1. The reaction temperature was maintained at 20°C, the reaction pressure was 0 MPa, and the reaction time was 5 h.

[0059] After the reaction is completed, the product is sent to the distillation and drying device 3 to distill methylsulfonyl fluoride as the product material. The distillation conditions are pressure -0.1MPa and the distillation temperature of the collected methylsulfonyl fluoride is 40℃. After passing through the methylsulfonyl fluoride condenser 4, the methylsulfonyl fluoride is stored in the methylsulfonyl fluoride storage tank 5. Then, the product is further distilled and condensed to recover ethylene glycol. The ethylene glycol is recovered and stored in the ethylene glycol storage tank 7. The recovered ethylene glycol can be recycled.

[0060] The material in the distillation and drying device 3 is evaporated to obtain solids, namely sodium chloride generated in the reaction and sodium fluoride that has not been completely reacted. Sodium chloride and sodium fluoride are not easy to separate and the separation cost is high. They can only be used as solid waste and cannot be collected as by-products. The weight percentage of the obtained methanesulfonyl fluoride is 99.3%, and the purity of methanesulfonyl fluoride is significantly reduced.

[0061] The comparative analysis shows that by setting up a filtration device, sodium chloride and sodium fluoride can be separated, thereby achieving the recovery of sodium fluoride. Sodium fluoride can be returned to the reaction filtration device for reuse, avoiding the problem of sodium fluoride being difficult to separate from sodium chloride. This improves the yield and purity of the product methanesulfonyl fluoride, demonstrating the specificity of the filtration device in the production process of this product. At the same time, it reduces the generation of waste and environmental pollution, lowers industrial production costs, and is conducive to large-scale industrial production.

Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention.
