Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of application of biomass chemicals, in particular to an application of biodiesel as a reaction solvent, in particular to an innovative application in the process of producing 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid imide by high-temperature cyclization of 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid amide. Background Art
[0002] Biodiesel is a renewable, low-carbon and environmentally friendly energy source, which is mainly produced by esterification or transesterification of vegetable oil, animal oil, waste oil or microbial oil. Traditionally, biodiesel is mainly used as transportation fuel and power sources such as industrial boilers and kilns, and is used in the chemical industry as a green chemical. However, there is a lack of green reaction solvents with low toxicity and low cost in the field of organic synthesis. Currently, organic reactions mostly use organic solvents such as benzene and alcohols as reaction media to transfer heat and disperse. These organic solvents mainly come from mineral oils and have the disadvantages of being volatile, highly toxic, high cost and non-renewable. In particular, for high-temperature organic reactions, there are fewer types of suitable reaction solvents, mainly silicone oils.
[0003] At present, there is no report on the use of biodiesel as a solvent for high-temperature organic reactions, especially in the process of high-temperature cyclization to produce 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboximide. Therefore, exploring the application of biodiesel in such reactions can not only enrich the utilization of biodiesel, but also provide a more environmentally friendly and economical solvent option for organic synthesis. Summary of the invention
[0004] The core of the new use of biodiesel involved in the present invention is to use biodiesel as a reaction solvent for high-temperature cyclization reaction of 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboxamide to play the role of substrate dispersion and heat transfer.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0006] 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboxamide is added to biodiesel, nitrogen is passed through to fully replace the air in the reaction system, and the reaction system is stirred and heated. 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboxamide is cyclized at high temperature to generate 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboximide. After the reaction is completed, the temperature of the reaction system is lowered to room temperature, and then deionized water is added thereto to extract the product from the biodiesel. After stratification and liquid separation, the extract (aqueous phase) is concentrated to about 1 / 5-1 / 4 of the original volume, cooled to 2-5°C for crystallization, filtered, and the solid is dried to obtain the 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboximide product; the raffinate (biodiesel phase) is dehydrated and recycled as a reaction solvent for the next reaction.
[0007] Further, the high temperature cyclization reaction equation is as follows:
[0008]
[0009] Furthermore, the biodiesel is a long-chain fatty acid methyl ester, and its molecular structure is: RCOOCH3, wherein R is an alkyl group with 16-20 carbon atoms and 0-3 double bonds, preferably 0-1 double bonds. The biodiesel is a fatty acid methyl ester compound or a mixture of several fatty acid methyl esters.
[0010] Furthermore, the biodiesel is methyl stearate.
[0011] Furthermore, the cyclization reaction temperature is 200-300°C, preferably 240-270°C; the cyclization reaction time is 0.5-5h, preferably 1.5-3h; the mass ratio of 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboxamide to biodiesel is 1 / 60-1 / 5, preferably 1 / 60-1 / 7.5.
[0012] The main innovations and beneficial effects are:
[0013] 1. The present invention introduces biodiesel, an energy substance, into the field of organic synthesis for the first time and uses it as a reaction solvent. This innovation not only expands the application scope of biodiesel and provides a new idea for its sustainable development in the chemical industry, but also provides new possibilities for the selection of organic synthesis reaction solvents.
[0014] 2. Using biodiesel as the reaction solvent has the following advantages:
[0015] 1) Biodiesel has a high boiling point (close to 350°C) and can maintain good chemical stability at high temperatures. It is not easy to decompose or produce harmful by-products. Therefore, biodiesel can be used in high-temperature organic reactions.
[0016] 2) Compared with conventional organic solvents, such as benzene, alcohols, chloroform, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, etc., biodiesel is less toxic and less expensive.
[0017] 3) Compared with silicone oil high temperature solvents, biodiesel has a lower viscosity, which is more conducive to the dispersion of reactants and heat transfer during the reaction process, thus achieving better reaction effects. In the synthesis of 1,2-cyclopentanedicarboximide, biodiesel as a solvent can significantly improve reaction efficiency and shorten reaction time. In addition, the price of biodiesel is half of that of silicone oil solvents, and the production cost is low.
[0018] 4) As a renewable resource, biodiesel reduces dependence on fossil fuels. Compared with other solvents, biodiesel is greener and more sustainable. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
