Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electrolysis technology, and particularly to an electrolytic fluorination device for trifluoromethanesulfonamide. Background Art

[0002] Trifluoromethanesulfonamide is an organic compound. It is a strongly acidic sulfonamide. Due to the strong electron-withdrawing effect of its trifluoromethyl group, the electron density on the nitrogen atom of the sulfonamide is significantly reduced, thereby enhancing its acidity. Trifluoromethanesulfonamide is commonly used as a strong acid catalyst in organic synthesis or as an intermediate for other chemical reactions, especially playing an important role in the reaction of forming carbon-nitrogen bonds. In addition, due to its high stability and relatively low toxicity, it also has certain applications in the fields of medicine and materials science. In order to enhance the biological activity of trifluoromethylsulfonamide fluoride, improve pharmacokinetic properties (such as enhancing metabolic stability and biofilm permeability), increase chemical stability, and regulate intermolecular interactions, thereby optimizing molecular properties and making it more suitable for drug development or as a key intermediate for synthesizing complex molecules, electrolytic fluorination of trifluoromethylsulfonamide fluoride is required. And the process of electrolytic fluorination is usually carried out in an electrolytic cell. For example, a new electrolytic cell for hydrogen fluoride electrolysis disclosed in the application number CN202110221655.1 is used for electrolytic treatment in an electrolytic cell.

[0003] When treating trifluoromethanesulfonamide in an electrolytic cell, usually the same voltage and current intensity are applied to two electrodes (anode and cathode). (The applied voltage and current intensity are the same, and there is always the same voltage difference between the two electrodes in actual operation). This unified electrolytic condition can ensure the stability and consistency of the electrolytic process, but this also means that in some cases, the potential difference between the electrodes cannot be flexibly adjusted, thus affecting the electrolytic efficiency or selectivity. Therefore, during the electrolysis process, as the electrolysis of trifluoromethanesulfonamide proceeds, the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide will gradually decrease. Therefore, when treating trifluoromethanesulfonamide with the same voltage and current intensity, due to the consumption of trifluoromethanesulfonamide and the voltage and current still continuing the electrolysis at the original intensity, the electrolytic reaction will be too intense, causing unnecessary side reactions, reducing the selectivity of the target product, and possibly increasing the by-products, affecting the purity of the final product. Therefore, the existing electrolytic cell cannot automatically adjust the voltage intensity and current magnitude according to the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Aiming at the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, the present invention provides an electrolytic fluorination device for trifluoromethanesulfonamide, which can effectively solve the problem that the existing electrolytic cell cannot automatically adjust the voltage intensity and current magnitude according to the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide.

[0017] The technical solution provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the known prior art:

[0018] 1. The temperature on the surface of the electrode is monitored in real time by an infrared thermometer, and then the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide is fed back. According to the temperature change, the electrolysis conditions are automatically adjusted to prevent the electrolysis reaction from being too violent and reduce the occurrence of side reactions. The infrared thermometer transmits the monitored temperature data to the PLC controller. The PLC controller automatically adjusts the second electric telescopic rod according to the temperature feedback, so that the second telescopic rod pushes the conductive sheet to slide on the resistance plate, thereby changing the current and voltage between the electrodes. Then, the first motor is controlled, and then the bidirectional screw rod is driven to rotate in cooperation with the limiting rod to dynamically adjust the distance between the anode and the cathode to maintain an appropriate electric field strength, so as to achieve real-time adjustment of the voltage and current intensity of the electrode according to the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide, thereby optimizing the electrolysis conditions and improving the reaction efficiency and product selectivity.

[0019] 2. According to the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide fed back by the temperature monitored in real time, the PLC controller automatically adjusts the power of the exhaust pump to dynamically control the amount of fluorine gas injected into the electrolytic cell. The reason for this dynamic adjustment is that the concentration of fluorine gas and other reactants needs to be kept balanced during the electrolysis process. As the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide decreases, the electrolysis reaction rate may decrease. Therefore, by slowly reducing the injection rate of fluorine gas, the chemical balance can be maintained, ensuring that the electrolysis reaction proceeds under the best conditions, thereby improving the reaction efficiency.

A support frame 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the preparation tank 1.

[0042] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:

[0043] First, the raw materials for preparing trifluoromethanesulfonamide, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and ammonia, are put into the preparator 5 through the feeding port 6. The trifluoromethanesulfonamide is prepared by the preparator 5 and turned into a liquid. The liquid trifluoromethanesulfonamide in the preparator 5 is pumped out by the first feeding pump 7, and the liquid trifluoromethanesulfonamide is discharged into the electrolytic cell 2 through the discharging pipe 9. The electrolyte is discharged into the electrolytic cell 2 through the cleaning port 10, and then the second sealing plug is reinserted into the cleaning port 10.

[0044] The fluorine gas in the gas storage tank 44 is pumped out by the exhaust pump 41, and the fluorine gas is discharged into the exhaust hood 48 through the connecting pipe 47. The fluorine gas is discharged into the electrolyte and liquid trifluoromethylsulfonamide in the electrolytic cell 2 through the inlet pipe 43. And the second motor 45 is started to drive the second rotating plate 46 to rotate. The exhaust pump 41 is driven to rotate synchronously by the second rotating plate 46, and then the exhaust hood 48 is driven to rotate synchronously. Finally, the first rotating plate 42 is driven to rotate, so that the fluorine gas is discharged into the electrolytic cell 2 in all directions. The electrolyte and trifluoromethylsulfonamide are mixed by the slow rotation of the first rotating plate 42, and the fluorination is made more uniform during the subsequent electrofluorination process. At the same time, the semiconductor refrigeration plate 495 needs to be started to cool the chilled water in the preparation tank 1. Then the water pump 493 is started, and the chilled water is discharged into the refrigeration pipe 492 through the water pump 493, so that the refrigeration pipe 492 cools the electrolyte, and the electrolyte is at about -10°C. This temperature can ensure that the fluorination reaction proceeds under efficient and controllable conditions, and at the same time reduce the occurrence of side reactions;

[0045] By energizing the sliding rheostat, the anode 31 and the cathode 32 are energized, and trifluoromethylsulfonamide is electrofluorinated. At the same time, the concentration of trifluoromethylsulfonamide will gradually decrease due to the electrofluorination of trifluoromethylsulfonamide. Therefore, the supply of reactants is insufficient. Coupled with the relatively high voltage and current intensity, the electrolysis conditions may be too intense, promoting unnecessary side reactions. The increase in side reactions will lead to a decrease in the selectivity of the target product and an increase in by-products, affecting the purity of the final product. Therefore, the electrolysis of trifluoromethylsulfonamide requires real-time regulation of voltage and current intensity. As the electrolysis concentration of trifluoromethylsulfonamide decreases and electrolysis is carried out at high voltage and current intensity, excessive energy input will occur. Especially when the concentration of trifluoromethylsulfonamide is low, the electrolysis reaction rate decreases, and the effect of energy conversion into reactants decreases. The excess energy will cause the temperature of the electrolyte to rise, which is most obvious on the surface of the electrode. The reason is that the electrofluorination reaction is most intense near the electrode;

[0046] Therefore, by starting the first electric telescopic rod 310, the first electric telescopic rod 310 pushes the second permanent magnet block 311 to slide downward slowly, and then drives the second permanent magnet block 311 and the connecting telescopic rod 38 to move synchronously, and then drives the protective shell 33 and the connecting shell 34 to move synchronously. The surface of the electrode can be cleaned by the movement of the protective shell 33. The reason is that impurities or other reaction intermediates in the electrolyte may be adsorbed on the surface of the electrode, hindering the progress of the electrochemical reaction. Therefore, the electrode needs to be cleaned, and the temperature of the electrode surface is monitored in real time by the infrared thermometer 35 during the cleaning process. When the monitored temperature rises, it means that the concentration of trifluoromethylsulfonamide has decreased. Therefore, the voltage and current need to be adjusted;

[0047] The measured temperature data is transmitted to the PLC controller through the infrared thermometer 35, and then the PLC controller controls the start of the second electric telescopic rod 315. The second electric telescopic rod 315 pushes the conductive sheet 313 forward (the moving distance of the conductive sheet 313 is proportional to the temperature measured by the infrared ray). The conductive sheet 313 moves on the resistance plate 314, thereby changing the current passing through the electrode, and further changing the current intensity and voltage intensity, so as to adjust the current and voltage passing through the electrode in real time according to the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide, so as to ensure that the electrofluorination reaction is carried out under optimal conditions, thereby improving the reaction efficiency, reducing unnecessary side reactions, and improving the selectivity and yield of the target product. And the PLC controller controls the power of the exhaust pump 41 to be gradually reduced to slowly reduce the fluorine gas injected into the electrolytic cell 2. The reason is that during the electrolysis process, the concentration of fluorine gas and other reactants needs to maintain a certain balance. The decrease in the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide may lead to a decrease in the electrolysis reaction rate. Therefore, it is necessary to slowly reduce the injection rate of fluorine gas to maintain the chemical balance.

[0048] As the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide decreases, the ion concentration in the electrolyte will also decrease, which will lead to an increase in resistance (the reason is that the decrease in the ion concentration and mobility in the electrolyte leads to a decrease in conductivity, thereby causing an increase in resistance). In order to maintain an appropriate electric field strength, it is necessary to adjust the electrode distance to ensure that the reaction continues to proceed efficiently. Therefore, the PLC controller adjusts the distance between the two electrodes in real time according to the feedback temperature. As the concentration of trifluoromethanesulfonamide gradually decreases, the distance between the two electrodes is gradually reduced. The reason is that approaching the electrodes can increase the electric field strength, thereby maintaining an appropriate current density and ensuring that the reaction continues to proceed efficiently. Therefore, the PLC controller controls the start of the first motor 361, the first motor 361 drives the bidirectional screw 362 to rotate, and then through the limit of the two threaded blocks 364 by the limit rod 363, the two threaded blocks 364 drive the two electrodes to slowly approach, move to a suitable position (adjusted according to the feedback temperature), and then stop the second motor 45.

[0049] During the electrolysis process, the generated gas is collected through the gas collector 11. When the electrolysis is completed (according to past electrolysis experience), the electrolyte in the electrolytic cell 2 is pumped out through the second pumping pump 14 and discharged into the collection box 13 for subsequent treatment.
