Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of catalytic hydrogenation, and particularly relates to a catalyst for preparing 1-phenylethanol by liquid-phase hydrogenation of acetophenone as well as a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] 1-phenylethanol is an important chemical product and is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry and the perfume manufacturing industry. Among various routes for synthesizing 1-phenylethanol, the preparation of 1-phenylethanol by catalytic hydrogenation of acetophenone is widely concerned because it is most consistent with atomic economy.

[0003] The reaction of preparing 1-phenylethanol by hydrogenation of acetophenone has multiple side reactions, and the development of a high-activity and high-selectivity catalyst for hydrogenation of acetophenone is a research focus. The catalysts used for hydrogenation of acetophenone mainly include noble metal catalysts such as Pt, Pd and Rh, and non-noble metal catalysts such as Ni-based and Cu-based catalysts. Among them, the noble metal catalysts are high in price, and the 1-phenylethanol selectivity of the Ni-based catalyst is low. Compared with the above catalysts, the Cu-based catalyst has the advantages of high activity, high selectivity and low price in the reaction of hydrogenation of acetophenone.

[0004] The Cu-based catalyst for hydrogenation of acetophenone has been reported in the literature and patents, and researchers have done a lot of work to optimize the catalyst performance. Lv et al. prepared a SiO2-supported nano-Cu catalyst by optimizing the preparation method and using a urea homogeneous precipitation method, so that the acetophenone conversion rate and reaction stability were improved (Applied Organometallic Chemistry. 2019, 33(8), e5000; Catalysis Letters. 2020, 150(1), 56-64).

[0005] Patent CN 112221508A discloses a heterogeneous shaped SiO2-supported CuZn@C catalyst, which reduces the use amount of Cu and the use of a promoter.

[0006] Patents CN 115445629 A, CN 111346638 A and CN 108043414 A respectively disclose Cu-based catalysts for hydrogenation of acetophenone with different combinations and structures, which improve the catalyst performance by adding additives, adjusting the catalyst structure and the like.

[0007] The hydrogenolysis / dehydration side reaction of 1-phenylethanol is prone to occur in the process of hydrogenation of acetophenone, and ethylbenzene / phenylethylene is generated. In order to obtain a high-efficiency catalyst for hydrogenation of acetophenone, it is necessary to not only promote the acetophenone conversion rate by using a Cu active component with high dispersity, but also to promote the selectivity of by-products by using a catalyst with few strong acid sites, and to promote the stability of the catalyst by using a Cu active component with strong anti-sintering ability.

[0008] Therefore, in view of the problems of the Cu-based catalyst for preparing 1-phenylethanol by hydrogenation of acetophenone, such as low dispersion of active component Cu, strong acidity of the catalyst, and weak interaction between the carrier and the active component, how to improve the dispersion and stability of the active component Cu and control the acidity of the catalyst by using a simple preparation method and by regulating the additives and the carrier is of great significance for preparing a high-performance catalyst for hydrogenation of acetophenone.
