TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of boron amine complex, in particular, it relates to a high-purity boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex is an important organic compound, when the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex is prepared, a commonly used method is to pass boron trifluoride gas into an organic solvent solution of ethylamine, for example, boron trifluoride gas is passed into an ethyl ether solution of ethylamine, and the boron trifluoride and ethylamine occur complexation reaction to generate the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex. However, the prepared boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex always has the problem of insufficient purity, this is because impurities in raw materials may participate in the reaction to generate heterocomplexes, which are mixed into the target product, so as to complicate the reaction system and reduce the product purity, meanwhile, the residual unreacted raw materials also affect the purity of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex, therefore, how to obtain a high-purity boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex is a technical problem to be solved at present. SUMMARY
[0003] The present application provides a high-purity boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex and a preparation method and application thereof, and solves the problem of low purity of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex in the related art.
[0004] The technical scheme of the present application is as follows:
[0005] The present application provides a preparation method of a high-purity boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex, comprising the following steps:
[0006] Passing boron trifluoride into an ethylamine solution to perform complexation reaction, filtering and taking filter residue to perform washing, drying, and obtaining the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex;
[0007] The washing agent during the washing comprises a non-ether alkane solvent and isopropyl ether.
[0008] As a further technical scheme, the number of carbon atoms of the non-ether alkane solvent is greater than or equal to 5.
[0009] In the present application, the non-ether alkane solvent refers to an alkane solvent without an ether bond.
[0010] In the present application, when washing the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex, the washing agent uses a non-ether alkane solvent and isopropyl ether, wherein the non-ether alkane solvent has a carbon atom number of 5 or more, a relatively large molecular structure, and can interact with some organic impurities through van der Waals force and the like, selectively remove impurities without chemical reaction with the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex, greatly reduce the loss of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex product, and improve the yield of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex when washing with isopropyl ether.
[0011] As a further technical solution, the non-ether alkane solvent includes one or both of cyclopentane and isooctane.
[0012] In the present application, the non-ether alkane solvent is preferably one or both of cyclopentane and isooctane, which improves the yield of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex.
[0013] As a further technical solution, the volume ratio of the non-ether alkane solvent to isopropyl ether is 1:9 to 9:1.
[0014] As a further technical solution, in the ethylamine solution, the mass-volume ratio of ethylamine to solvent is 1g:8 to 12mL.
[0015] In the present application, in the ethylamine solution, the mass-volume ratio of ethylamine to solvent is 1g:8 to 12mL, under this dosage relationship, the ethylamine molecules can collide with the introduced boron trifluoride molecules and undergo complexation reaction more fully, effectively reducing the situation of excessive local reaction or insufficient reaction.
[0016] As a further technical solution, the molar ratio of the boron trifluoride to the ethylamine is 1:0.9 to 1.15.
[0017] As a further technical solution, the solvent includes a halogenated alkane solvent with a carbon atom number of 2 to 4.
[0018] In the present application, the solvent in the ethylamine solution uses a halogenated alkane solvent with a carbon atom number of 2 to 4, which improves the yield of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex; the halogenated alkane solvent with a carbon atom number of 2 to 4 can be dichloroethane, bromoethane, 1-chlorobutane, 1-bromopropane, 2-bromopropane, etc., and is preferably bromoethane and 1-chlorobutane.
[0019] As a further technical solution, the introduction rate is 8 to 16 kg / h; the complexation reaction temperature is 1 to 5℃, and the time is 2.5 to 3.5h.
[0020] In the present application, the boron trifluoride is introduced at a rate of 8-16 kg / h, thereby avoiding uneven distribution of reactant concentration in the reaction system caused by too fast or too slow introduction rate, and enabling the boron trifluoride and ethylamine to be sufficiently and uniformly contacted for reaction, thereby improving the structural stability of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex.
[0021] The present application also provides a high-purity boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex prepared by the preparation method.
[0022] The present application also provides the use of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex prepared by the preparation method or the high-purity boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex in organic synthesis or resin curing agent.
[0023] In the present application, the high-purity boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex can be used as an efficient catalyst, for example, in the reaction of aromatic hydrocarbons with halogenated hydrocarbons or acyl halides, the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex can promote the formation of carbon-carbon bonds; in some esterification reactions, the reaction rate and yield can be improved. Compared with other catalysts, the high-purity boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex has the advantages of high catalytic activity and good selectivity, and can catalyze the synthesis of organic compounds; the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex can also be used as a curing agent for epoxy resin. When mixed with epoxy resin, the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex initiates intermolecular crosslinking of the epoxy resin, so that the epoxy resin becomes a cured product with good mechanical properties and chemical stability, and is further applied in the fields of electronic packaging, coatings, etc.
[0024] The working principle and beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:
[0025] In the present application, the boron trifluoride is introduced into the ethylamine solution for complexation reaction. After the completion of the complexation reaction, some unreacted substances and impurities are present in the system. The reaction product can be preliminarily separated by filtration to obtain filter residue containing the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex. Washing is a key link for improving the purity of the product. In the present application, the non-ether alkane solvent and isopropyl ether are used as the washing agent during washing, which can effectively and selectively remove the impurities in the filter residue, thereby improving the purity of the boron trifluoride monoethylamine complex.
