Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemical reaction progress monitoring, and particularly relates to an online detection method and system for the acetylation conversion rate of aromatic hydroxy formic acid compounds. Background Art

[0002] The raw materials for the acetylation reaction of hydroxy formic acid compounds include hydroxy formic acid compound monomers and acylating agents. The acetylation conversion rate of hydroxy formic acid compounds is defined as the percentage of the molar amount of hydroxyl groups consumed by the acetylation reaction at a certain moment to the initial feeding of hydroxyl groups, which reflects the change in the content of hydroxyl groups in the system and also characterizes the acetylation degree of hydroxy formic acid compounds. Developing an online detection method for the acetylation conversion rate of hydroxyl group acetylation reaction with high speed, non-destructiveness and high confidence is of great significance for optimizing the acylation process and improving the quality of acylated products.

[0003] The purpose of the acetylation of hydroxy formic acid compounds is to convert the hydroxyl groups in the monomers into acetoxy groups, which can increase the reaction activity of the monomers on the one hand and protect the hydroxyl groups from oxidation on the other hand. After acetylation, the stability of the formic acid groups in the monomers is improved and it is not easy to be removed at high temperatures. Therefore, the molar amount of hydroxyl groups plays an important role in the acetylation of hydroxy formic acid compounds.

[0004] Patent CN102276454A discloses a preparation method of p-acetoxybenzoic acid, which includes: using HBA as the raw material, carrying out an acetylation reaction under the condition that acetic anhydride is 1.2 - 1.5 times in excess, and analyzing the purity of the final acetylation product by liquid chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum at the same time. The conversion rate of p-acetoxybenzoic acid prepared by this method is greater than 96%, and the content of by-products is low, greatly reducing the difficulty of further refining and purifying the product. This method controls the dropping rate of the catalyst by monitoring the temperature change of the system to achieve the regulation of the acetylation reaction process, which has high requirements for experimental operations and cannot accurately detect the true state in the reaction system.

[0005] Most of the existing detection methods for the acetylation conversion rate of hydroxy formic acid compounds are off-line sampling analysis. For example, in "Kinetics of 4-acetoxybenzoic acid synthesis" in Designed monomers and polymers (2003), under the conditions of 71.1 °C - 93.3 °C, using Therminol-66 as the solvent and acetic anhydride as the acylating agent, the change of the acetylation conversion rate of HBA with time was studied by nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum and gravimetric analysis; for example, patent CN102276454A analyzes the acetylation conversion rate of the final acetylation product by liquid chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum.

[0006] All of the above three methods require manual sampling of the process, followed by weighing, dissolving, and sample preparation of the samples, and then analysis using nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy and liquid chromatography, or weight analysis through recrystallization, filtration, and washing. The acetylation reaction is a rapid reaction, and the overall reaction process takes within 30 minutes, usually 5 - 20 minutes. However, the off-line detection method takes at least 10 minutes from sampling to the start of the final analysis. There is a significant lag between the acetylation analysis results and the actual situation, and the off-line collected analysis results cannot be used to guide the automated process production, which is not conducive to controlling the quality of acetylated products.

[0007] There is an urgent need for an on-line, rapid, and non-destructive detection method for the conversion rate of the acetylation reaction of hydroxycarboxylic acid compounds to perform real-time detection of the acetylation process and optimize the acetylation conditions based on real-time feedback information. Summary of the Invention

[0008] In view of the lack of an on-line detection method for the conversion rate of the acetylation reaction of hydroxycarboxylic acid compounds in the prior art, the present invention proposes a method for on-line detection of the conversion rate of the acetylation reaction by detecting the hydroxyl group using Raman spectral signals, which has the advantages of non-destructiveness, rapid detection, high result confidence, wide adaptability, one-time calibration of the model, and low equipment technical transformation cost.

[0009] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0010] An on-line detection method for the conversion rate of the acetylation reaction of an aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid compound, comprising the steps of: on-line detecting the change in the characteristic peak signal of the aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid monomer at 1540 - 1665 cm -1 during the reaction process by Raman spectroscopy to achieve on-line detection of the conversion rate of the acetylation reaction of the aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid compound;

[0011] The aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid monomer includes one or more of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, salicylic acid, m-hydroxybenzoic acid, p-hydroxynaphthoic acid, 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, m-hydroxynaphthoic acid, 9-hydroxyanthracene-2-carboxylic acid, 2-hydroxypyridine-3-carboxylic acid, and 4-hydroxytriphenyl-2-carboxylic acid.

[0012] In the present invention, for the acetylation reaction of aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid compounds, the aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid monomer undergoes an acetylation reaction with the lower acylating agent, and the hydroxyl group in the monomer is converted into an acetoxy group. The reaction equation is as follows.

[0013]

[0014] During the reaction process, the change in the molar amount of the aromatic ring connected to the hydroxyl group directly reflects the progress of the acetylation reaction. The inventors found that after the hydroxyl group of the aromatic ring is protected, the corresponding Raman spectrum shows a change at 1540 - 1665 cm -1The vibration peak changes significantly and can be used as a characteristic signal for the change in the molar amount of the monomer. There is an obvious dependence between the peak area of the characteristic peak and the molar amount of the monomer. Therefore, the conversion rate of the acetylation reaction of the hydroxy formic acid compound can be calculated by analyzing the Raman spectrum of the reactants in the reactor or process pipeline, thereby achieving the purpose of on-line detection. This method has a fast detection speed, is non-destructive to the reaction process, and has high result accuracy.

[0015] Compared with other spectral techniques such as infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy has unique advantages: its non-destructive detection can keep the sample intact and is easy to operate; the characteristic peaks have "fingerprint" properties, which are convenient for substance identification; the quantitative model has strong anti-interference ability and can achieve remote real-time detection. The present invention discovers that the benzene ring connected to the hydroxyl group presents specific characteristic peaks in the Raman spectrum, with clear and non-overlapping signals, which is an ideal detection index.

Denote the magnitude of the area value as A ( t ), and according to obtain the real-time molar flow rate n ( t ) of the aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid monomer during the reaction process;

This technology can directly detect the material system in the reactor or indirectly detect it through the process pipeline or by adding a bypass. Compared with traditional analysis methods, this technology exhibits excellent real-time response characteristics, measurement accuracy and wide adaptability, and has advantages such as only needing to be calibrated once for the on-line model and low equipment modification cost.

[0071] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art who make modifications or equivalent substitutions based on the understanding of the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention shall be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.

[0072] The raw materials used in the following specific implementation manners are all purchased from the market.

[0073] Example 1

[0074] In this example, p-hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA) is used as a monomer and undergoes an acetylation reaction with acetic anhydride. Based on the online detection system for the conversion rate of the HBA acetylation reaction, the Raman spectroscopy probe is arranged on the inner wall of a high-transmittance and low-hydroxyl quartz reactor, and the structural schematic diagram is as Figure 1 shown.

[0075] The online detection system includes a high-transmittance reaction kettle 5. The Raman spectroscopy probe 4 is connected to a Raman spectrometer 2 through a low-noise optical fiber 3, and the data of the Raman spectrometer 2 is transmitted to a computing device 1; a Raman spectroscopy probe 4 is arranged inside the reactor to collect the Raman spectral information of the reactants in real time. The signal obtained by the Raman spectroscopy probe 4 is detected by the Raman spectrometer 2 and then transmitted to the computing device 1.

[0076] The Raman spectrometer used in this example is from Hangzhou Paixi Optoelectronic Technology Co., Ltd., emits near-infrared laser with a wavelength of 785 nm, is equipped with a 100 μm quartz excitation optical fiber, and the maximum sampling time interval is 1 min.

[0077] The object of this example is an acetylation system of HBA and acetic anhydride with batch operation. The feeding ratio of HBA and acetic anhydride is 1:2. The monomer is vacuum-dried at 90 °C for 12 h to remove the moisture present in the raw materials. The monomer is preheated for 30 min and then added to the quartz reaction kettle. The nitrogen is replaced three times, and the reaction is carried out under the protection of a nitrogen atmosphere. Taking the moment of adding the acylating agent as the starting point of the reaction, liquid samples are taken out during the reaction, quenched rapidly with liquid nitrogen and then subjected to off-line analysis as a control. No monomer is added during the reaction.

[0078] An online detection method for the conversion rate of the acetylation reaction of a hydroxycarboxylic acid compound based on the analysis of the molar amount of hydroxyl groups, the specific process includes:

[0079] Step 1-1, prepare a series of concentrations of HBA monomer standards, conduct Raman spectroscopy tests, and obtain the Raman spectra of the standards;

[0080] Step 1-2: Preprocess the Raman spectrum of the standard sample in Step 1-1, including background subtraction, baseline correction, and spectrum normalization, to obtain the normalized Raman spectrum of the HBA standard sample;

[0081] To eliminate the influence of the spectrometer CCD pixel current noise, laser power fluctuation, and temperature, it is necessary to first subtract the background spectrum. To eliminate the influence of the fluorescence background in the spectral signal, baseline correction is required. The iterative polynomial fitting baseline correction method is adopted, and the baseline correction range is 400 - 1800 cm -1 , and the baseline algorithm references Wang, T., Dai, LK. Applied Spectroscopy, 2017, 71(6), 1169 - 1179. The spectrum normalization method is the spectral maximum normalization method, and the normalization method range is 400 - 1800 cm -1 .

[0082] After spectral preprocessing, the Raman spectrum of pure component HBA under a 785 nm wavelength laser can be obtained as Figure 2 . Among them, the characteristic peak of the benzene ring structure connected by the hydroxyl group is 1600 cm -1 , and in the acetylation process of this benzene ring structure, after the hydroxyl group is protected, the change of the characteristic peak of the benzene ring structure is the most obvious. Therefore, the range of 1540 - 1665 cm -1 in the Raman spectrum is selected as the characteristic area of the hydroxyl group, and the size of the area value is recorded as A .

[0083] Step 1-3: Utilize the colligative property between the Raman spectral characteristic signal and the concentration, select the characteristic signal of HBA in the range of 300 - 4000 cm -1 band, use the characteristic band of 1540 - 1665 cm -1 as the characteristic signal of HBA, obtain the standard curve of the molar amount of HBA and the characteristic peak area of the Raman spectrum at 1540 - 1665 cm Figure 3 , and calculate the correlation coefficient of the Raman spectrum according to the relationship formula (3) -1 to be 2.94: k For:

[0084] (3).

[0085] Step 2-1: Use the Raman spectroscopy probe to collect the Raman spectral signal of HBA in the acetylation reactor in real-time at t the moment;

[0086] Step 2-2: Preprocess the Raman spectral signals collected in Step 2-1, specifically including: background subtraction, baseline correction, and spectral normalization, to obtain the normalized on-line Raman spectrum in the reactor, and obtain the peak area of the characteristic signal of HBA in the range of 1540 - 1665 cm -1 The size of the area value is denoted as A ( t );

[0087] Step 3 specifically includes: According to t The peak area of the characteristic signal of the HBA Raman spectrum at the A ( t ) Calculate the conversion rate of the HBA acetylation reaction successively through the stoichiometric relationships of formulas (3) and (1) x ( t ) %.

[0088] (3)

[0089] (1)

[0090] Among them, n ( t ) is the molar flow rate of HBA in the reactor at time t, with the unit of mol, n (0) is the initial molar amount of HBA, with the unit of mol.

[0091] Using the above-mentioned on-line detection of the acetylation of HBA and acetic anhydride based on the reactor, Table 1 shows some on-line detection results, realizing the calculation of the conversion rate of the HBA acetylation reaction in the reactor in real time. This detection method is convenient, fast and non-destructive to the system.

[0092] Table 1 On-line detection results of the acetylation conversion rate of HBA in Example 1

[0094] In order to compare the accuracy of the monitoring method of the present invention with the detection methods of the prior art, the present invention also detects the molar flow rate of the hydroxyl group in the samples taken at different reaction times according to the nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum method (reference: Liang L H. Journal of North China Institute of Technology, 1997, (02): 49-52.), and calculates the acetylation reaction conversion rate according to formula (5), Figure 4 The result comparison between the present invention and the nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum during the reaction process is given.

[0097] Compared with the traditional nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy method, this method shows significant advantages. The nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy method not only has a complex operation process, takes a long time, and is destructive, but is also easily affected by human operation factors and sample preparation errors. As Figure 4 shown, the acetylation reaction conversion rate data obtained by the two methods have good consistency, but this method is more prominent in terms of test efficiency and accuracy. Thanks to its non-destructive detection characteristics and high degree of automation, this method effectively avoids human errors, while ensuring the measurement accuracy, significantly improving the practicability and reliability of the method.

[0100] In order to compare the accuracy of the monitoring method of the present invention with the detection methods of the prior art, the present invention also detects the molar flow rate of hydroxyl groups in the samples taken at different reaction times according to the nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy method (reference: Liang L H. Journal of North China Institute of Technology, 1997, (02): 49-52.), and calculates the acetylation reaction conversion rate according to formula (6), Figure 7 The results comparison between the present invention and nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy during the reaction process is given.

[0102] Wherein, The total peak areas of the characteristic peaks at chemical shifts of 8.64 ppm, 8.19 ppm, 8.17 ppm, 8.01 ppm, 7.77 ppm, 7.43 ppm, and 7.41 ppm represent the H atoms on the naphthalene ring to which the acetoxy group formed after hydroxyacetylation is attached; The total peak areas of the characteristic peaks at chemical shifts of 8.47 ppm, 7.96 ppm, 7.86 ppm, 7.76 ppm, 7.18 ppm, 7.17 ppm, and 7.15 ppm represent the H atoms on the naphthalene ring to which the hydroxy group was attached before acetylation.

[0103] Compared with the traditional nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy method, this method shows significant advantages. The nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy method not only has a complex operation process, takes a long time, and is destructive, but is also easily affected by human operation factors and sample preparation errors. As Figure 7 shown, the acetylation reaction conversion rate data obtained by the two methods are in good agreement, but this method is more prominent in terms of test efficiency and accuracy.
