Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalysis technology, and relates to a catalyst for the direct ammonolysis and nitrification of dicarboxylic acid esters to prepare dialiphatic nitrile, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Nitriles are important raw materials and synthetic intermediates in fine chemicals, especially dialiphatic nitrs such as adiponitrile, glutaronitrile, succinic anhydride, azelaic anhydride, and sebacic anhydride. The dialiphatic amines obtained by hydrogenation of these compounds are key monomer raw materials for the synthesis of nylon and other polyurethane materials. Specifically, hexamethylenediamine can be used in the synthesis of nylon 6 and nylon 66, pentanediamine in the synthesis of nylon 54 and nylon 56, butylenediamine in the synthesis of nylon 46, azelaic anhydride in the synthesis of nylon 9T, and sebacic anhydride in the synthesis of nylon 1010.
[0003] The reported synthetic methods for the nitrification of diacids mainly involve the amination reaction of dicarboxylic acids. In addition, there are three mainstream synthetic methods for adiponitrile: adipic acid amination dehydration method, acrylonitrile electrolytic dimerization method, and butadiene hydrocyanation method. These methods have limitations in application and promotion due to the use of corrosive or highly toxic raw materials and high energy consumption. Therefore, a route based on the direct ammonolysis and nitrification of dimethyl adipate has recently been developed, which is green, safe, and has the potential for large-scale production.
[0004] Currently, various catalysts have been developed for the direct ammonolysis nitrification of dicarboxylic acid esters. CN114160120A discloses a solid acid catalyst with a polyionic liquid-supported heteropolyacid, which provides Lewis acid sites through the heteropolyacid anion and can be used for the ammonolysis nitrification of dimethyl glutarate / dimethyl adipate with ammonia in a batch reaction. For the continuous ammonolysis nitrification of dicarboxylic acid esters in fixed-bed / fluidized-bed reactors, there are few related literature and patent reports. Metal oxide solid acids (CN109912452A), metal-doped / acidified metal oxides (CN110511162A), and pyridine-based ionic liquid-functionalized silicon / aluminum oxide catalysts (CN114160120) are the three types of catalysts reported in the patents. All three catalysts can achieve high dinitrile selectivity (80-90%). However, due to the different particle sizes and densities of the different catalysts, it is difficult to evaluate the catalyst production capacity solely based on space velocity and dinitrile selectivity. The space-time yield (STY) of dionitrile is the dionitrile yield per unit mass / volume of catalyst per unit time. It can be used to compare different catalysts at the capacity level. However, the relevant data is not explicitly disclosed in the aforementioned patent.
[0005] Based on the literature published in the same period on the direct ammonolysis and nitrification of dimethyl adipate to prepare adiponitrile, the optimal production capacity and corresponding operating conditions of different catalysts can be summarized as shown in Table 1 below (Ding, GR, Wang, YF, Duan, GY, et al.

[0008]
[0009] The increased space-time yield of binary aliphatic nitriles is of great significance for their industrial production. How to improve the utilization rate of catalyst active sites, maintain a large space-time yield, and reduce the theoretical design size of the reactor; at the same time, reduce the reaction temperature, reduce energy consumption, and reduce production costs are two urgent problems that need to be solved to determine whether the above methods can be industrialized. Summary of the Invention
[0010] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a catalyst and its preparation method for the direct ammonolysis and nitrification of dicarboxylic acid esters to prepare dialiphatic nitriles. The present invention provides a molecular sieve-supported metal oxide solid acid catalyst with dispersed active sites, considerable space-time yield of dialiphatic nitriles, and mild reaction conditions. This catalyst has a weakly acidic surface on its all-silica support, which is unfavorable for carboxylic acid ester conversion and results in fewer side reactions generated by the support. Furthermore, it exhibits good hydrothermal stability, and its hydrophobic surface is beneficial for the dehydration reaction process. The pore structure of the molecular sieve support is tunable; by introducing metal oxides to adjust the location of active sites and their internal / external surfaces, the mass transfer efficiency of reactants at active sites can be enhanced, thereby increasing the reaction activity. By adjusting the interaction between the all-silica support with different surface acidities and the active sites, a supported, highly dispersed metal oxide catalyst with rich interfacial structures is obtained, thereby adjusting the type and amount of surface acid and reducing the activation energy of the reaction.
