Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine, and in particular to a method and system for preparing dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine. Background Art

[0002] Bis(hydroxypropyl)hydroxylamine is an important fine chemical product with two main uses. First, it has a very good inhibitory effect on olefin polymerization and is often used in styrene production equipment. It can be used alone or in combination with other inhibitors. On the other hand, bis(hydroxypropyl)hydroxylamine is an organic reducing agent. It can be used to produce antioxidants or as a boiler descaling agent.

[0003] At present, there are few reports on the synthesis method of dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine. CN106957240A discloses a synthesis method of hydroxypropylhydroxylamine, which is prepared by a two-step method: the first step is to dissolve the substituted hydroxylamine in a solvent and then add alkali solution to fully mix and prepare a free base, the second step is to add propylene oxide to the solvent to obtain a mixed product, and finally, after extraction and rotary evaporation, hydroxypropylhydroxylamine can be obtained. The intermediate product free base of this method is a highly reactive substance, which has great safety hazards, and the method does not finally give the yield and purity of the product, and the economic benefit cannot be evaluated. US6028225A discloses a method for generating dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine by reacting 50% hydroxylamine free base and propylene oxide. The raw materials of this method are difficult to obtain, and the data such as product yield and purity are also not given, and the economic benefit cannot be evaluated. CN112159333A discloses a method for preparing dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine by reacting propylene oxide, hydroxylamine salt and inorganic alkali solution. Since the method uses inorganic alkali solution, the reaction will generate inorganic salts soluble in water, and the subsequent purification steps are relatively complicated. In addition, the inorganic salts in the aqueous solution are difficult to separate, which affects the purity and yield of the product. CN115724763A discloses a method for preparing diisopropylhydroxylamine. Diisopropylhydroxylamine is prepared by using hydroxylamine salt, organic solvent, propylene oxide and organic base, which can improve the purity of the product. However, since the organic base is easily decomposed, the required reaction conditions are relatively harsh and the raw material cost is high.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method for synthesizing dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine with a simple preparation method, a safe and reliable preparation process, high product purity and no inorganic salt impurities in the product. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems of high inorganic salt impurity content, insufficient purity and low yield in the prior art of dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine, and to provide a method and system for preparing dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine, which can take into account both high dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine purity and yield, and low inorganic salt impurity content in the product.

[0014] Preferably, in step (2), the reaction conditions include: the reaction temperature is 40-70°C, preferably 55-65°C, and the reaction time is 1-8h, preferably 3-6h.

[0015] Another aspect of the present invention provides a reaction system for preparing dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine, comprising: a reactor 11, a primary vacuum distillation device 12, a solid-liquid separator 13 and a secondary vacuum distillation device 14 connected in sequence;

[0016] The reactor 11 is provided with a first raw material inlet and a second raw material inlet, propylene oxide, hydroxylamine salt and water are fed into the reactor 11 through the first raw material inlet, and the inorganic base is fed into the reactor 11 through the second raw material inlet;

[0017] The primary vacuum distillation device 12 is provided with a mixed product inlet and an organic solvent inlet, and is used to perform a first vacuum distillation to remove water from the mixed product containing dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine from the reactor 11, and then mix it with the organic solvent fed into the primary vacuum distillation device 12 through the organic solvent inlet;

[0018] The solid-liquid separator 13 is used to separate the solid and liquid of the product from the primary vacuum distillation device 12, and the obtained liquid phase is sent to the secondary vacuum distillation device 14 for a second vacuum distillation to remove the organic solvent.

[0019] The method provided by the present invention obtains dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine in one step by reacting hydroxylamine salt, propylene oxide and inorganic base. The inorganic salt impurities can be removed more efficiently by a simple method of once vacuum distillation-filtration-second vacuum distillation, the separation process is simple, and the purity and yield of the obtained product are high. Furthermore, the inventors of the present invention have found in their research that by controlling the reaction temperature and the amount of water, the water removal effect of the subsequent vacuum distillation is beneficial, and the purity of the product is further improved.

[0028] One aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine, the method comprising:

[0029] (1) mixing propylene oxide, hydroxylamine salt and water;

[0030] (2) mixing the mixture obtained in step (1) with an inorganic base to react to obtain a mixed product containing dihydroxypropylhydroxylamine;

[0035] When bishydroxypropylhydroxylamine is prepared by reacting hydroxylamine salt with inorganic alkali solution in a water system, the reaction will generate water-soluble inorganic salts due to the use of inorganic alkali solution. The presence of inorganic salts will affect the purity of the product. Usually, extraction and distillation are required to separate the inorganic salts. However, it is difficult to remove the inorganic salts in one step by traditional extraction methods. Usually, more than two extraction treatments are required.
