Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of fine chemical engineering, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a palladium catalyst supported on nitrogen-doped carbon, and an application of the catalyst in the synthesis of lactone compounds. Background Art
[0002] β-Propiolactone compounds have a four-membered ring structure with relatively large ring strain, and their chemical properties are active and very prone to ring-opening reactions with nucleophiles. Therefore, they are very important synthetic intermediates and fine chemical products. For example, the simplest member of this type of compound, β-propiolactone, also known as 2-oxetanone, is a colorless viscous liquid at room temperature and can directly act on the DNA or RNA of viruses, changing their nucleic acid structure, so it has a strong virus inactivation effect. At present, β-propiolactone has been widely used in the inactivation of various vaccines abroad. Not only is the inactivation time short, which can shorten the vaccine production cycle, but β-propiolactone is also extremely easy to hydrolyze, and its hydrolysis product is 3-hydroxypropionic acid, which can be quickly metabolized and absorbed by the human body without toxic side effects. In addition to β-propiolactone, some other 4-membered lactone compounds such as β-butyrolactone and β-valerolactone can be used to synthesize liquid crystals, biodegradable plastics, spices and other products, and have a wide range of uses in production and life.
[0003] At present, the main synthesis methods of β-propiolactone are the ring-closing method of β-haloacid and the [2+2] addition method of ketene. The ring-closing method of β-haloacid (Equation 1) uses β-haloacid as the raw material, and under the action of alkalis such as sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and potassium carbonate, β-propiolactone is obtained by removing hydrogen halide while closing the ring. The amount of alkali used in this method is generally 1 equivalent and should not be excessive; the temperature should not be too high, generally not exceeding 50°C; since the product β-propiolactone is prone to hydrolysis into β-hydroxy acid by-products under alkaline and high-temperature conditions, the yield of the product β-propiolactone will be reduced. Due to the relatively high synthesis cost of β-haloacid, at present, the preparation of β-propiolactone by this method is mostly used in laboratories, and there are almost no reports on its large-scale production application.
[0004]
[0005] Another commonly used process for preparing β-propiolactone is the [2+2] cycloaddition process of ketene and carbonyl compounds (Formula 2). This method utilizes the highly reactive chemical activity of ketene and can easily undergo a [2+2] cycloaddition reaction with carbonyl compounds under the action of a catalyst to obtain a series of β-propiolactone derivatives in one step. Lewis acids or Lewis bases can generally be used to catalyze this reaction. It should be noted that due to the four-membered ring structure of the product β-propiolactone with a large ring strain, its chemical properties are also very active. Under the catalysis of Lewis acids or Lewis bases, side reactions such as ring-opening polymerization, elimination, and dehydration are likely to occur. Therefore, the above [2+2] cycloaddition reaction generally needs to be carried out at a very low concentration, and a large amount of solvent is required to dilute the reaction substrates, resulting in relatively high production costs.
[0006]
[0007] In summary, the current synthesis methods of β-propiolactone mainly include the ring-closure method of β-haloacid and the [2+2] addition method of ketene. Among them, the [2+2] addition method of ketene has relatively low-cost raw materials and can obtain β-propiolactone in one step with almost no by-products, which is a relatively promising synthesis route for β-propiolactone. However, since the current [2+2] cycloaddition of ketene and carbonyl generally occurs in solution, a large amount of solvent is required to dilute the two raw materials, resulting in high costs, a large reactor, and low production efficiency. In view of the importance of β-propiolactone compounds, in order to prepare this type of intermediate more economically and efficiently, it is urgent to develop new catalysts and reaction systems to overcome the disadvantages of the current liquid-phase [2+2] cycloaddition process of ketene and carbonyl compounds. Summary of the Invention

The catalyst of this method has a novel structure, mild preparation conditions, and simple operation. The catalyst can efficiently catalyze the gas-phase [2+2] reaction of ketene compounds and carbonyl compounds to simply and efficiently prepare a series of β-propiolactone derivatives.
[0009] To achieve the above purpose and technical effects, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

After cooling to room temperature, a palladium catalyst supported on nitrogen-doped carbon is obtained.
[0020] Second, the palladium catalyst supported on nitrogen-doped carbon prepared by the impregnation method of the present invention is used in the [2 + 2] gas-phase cycloaddition reaction of ketene compounds and carbonyl compounds to prepare a series of β-propiolactone derivatives in high yield.

[0051] Example 5
[0052] The nitrogen-doped carbon-supported palladium catalyst is used to catalyze the [2 + 2] cycloaddition of ketene and formaldehyde to prepare propiolactone.
[0053] The experiment was carried out using a double-tube fixed bed. Reaction tube 1 was used to prepare the ketene raw material, and reaction tube 2 was used for the gas-phase [2+2] cycloaddition reaction of ketene and formaldehyde. At room temperature, diketene was added to feed tank 1, and paraformaldehyde powder was added to feed tank 2. Feed tank 1 and feed tank 2 were connected to reaction tube 1 and tube 2 respectively. The lengths of both reaction tubes 1 and 2 were 30 cm, and the inner diameter was 2 cm. Reaction tube 1 was filled with glass spring packing (φ4 mm, length 10 mm), and the middle part of reaction tube 2 was filled with palladium catalyst supported on nitrogen-doped carbon (5 cm, volume 15.7 mL). Both the upper and lower parts of the catalyst layer were filled with quartz sand to fix the catalyst. When performing the [2+2] cycloaddition experiment, first turn on the power of the device, start the preheater and the reaction tube heater, and start the nitrogen carrier gas (40 mL / min). When the temperature of reaction tube 1 stabilizes at 550 °C, start the diketene feeding (0.42 g / min). After the diketene is vaporized by the preheater, it enters reaction tube 1 under the drive of the nitrogen carrier gas and undergoes a cracking reaction to generate ketene (yield 54%, 0.23 g / min). The high-temperature reaction gas coming out of reaction tube 1 is cooled to 20 °C, and after gas-liquid separation, it enters reaction tube 2 (20 °C).
