Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of heterogeneous catalysis and relates to a method for jointly producing 1,2-epoxyalkanes and 1,2-diols. Background Art

[0002] 1,2-Epoxyalkanes, especially long-chain epoxyalkanes, are important fine chemical products, mainly used for producing 1,2-diols. The latter can be used for producing fungicides and is also an important component of moisturizers and emollients in cosmetics, having excellent moisturizing and lubricating properties. It can also be used as a solvent in the pharmaceutical and chemical fields and as a food additive in the food field, with high economic value. Currently, there are large gaps in the global market for 1,2-pentanediol and 1,2-diols with longer chains, and China's consumption basically relies on imports.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN1552684A discloses a method for synthesizing 1,2-pentanediol from n-pentene, formic acid, and hydrogen peroxide through epoxidation reaction and hydrolysis reaction, and the epoxidation reaction temperature is 20 - 10°C. This patent uses low-temperature reaction and replaces peracetic acid with performic acid, improving the process safety. However, there are also problems such as excessive formic acid, easy formation of by-products during the reaction process, and separation and recovery of sodium formate. Patent DE3442937 reports that 1-pentene and peroxypropionic acid are continuously reacted in solvent benzene to obtain 1,2-epoxypentane. The recovery of by-product propionic acid in this process is difficult, and the solvent benzene is highly toxic. US Patents US4605795 and US4479021 respectively disclose processes for epoxidizing 1-pentene with peroxypropionic acid and peracetic acid to produce 1,2-epoxypentane and then generating 1,2-pentanediol through saponification reaction. These processes have problems such as difficult recovery of by-products and difficult control of the safety of peracetic acid. Patent WO2017157832A1 uses a TS-1 / Hβ molecular sieve mixed catalyst for a one-pot reaction, but there is a problem that the acidity of the Hβ molecular sieve is too strong, resulting in rapid and ineffective decomposition of hydrogen peroxide; moreover, it is difficult to separate and recover the two catalysts. Chinese Patent CN102010293A discloses a method for using a titanium silicalite molecular sieve to catalyze 1-pentene to form 1,2-epoxypentane and then hydrolyzing it to obtain 1,2-pentanediol. In this method, when generating 1,2-epoxypentane, in order to convert as much hydrogen peroxide as possible, a reaction time of 3 h is required, and its reaction time is relatively long, increasing the industrialization cost.

[0004] From the above solutions, most of the existing methods for producing 1,2-epoxyalkanes and 1,2-diols are obtained step by step, that is, first obtaining epoxyalkanes and then using the epoxyalkanes to obtain the target product diol. There is no method that can obtain the two target products simultaneously, and there are problems such as poor economy or environmental pollution. It is necessary to develop a green and environmentally friendly and highly economical method. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a catalytic method for epoxidation-hydration of α-olefin and hydrogen peroxide to produce 1,2-epoxyalkane and the corresponding hydrolysis product 1,2-diol. This method uses a molecular sieve catalyst containing oxidation sites and acid sites, and by regulating the relative contents of the two sites, the ratio of 1,2-epoxyalkane and 1,2-diol can be adjusted to meet the industry's demand for product output.

[0006] Specifically, a catalytic method for co-producing epoxyalkane and diol provided by the present invention includes the following steps: S1. Add an organic solvent, hydrogen peroxide, α-olefin, and a regulator into a batch reactor in sequence, and stir evenly; add the Ti-M-MFI catalyst into the reactor and seal the reactor. S2. Introduce N2 into the reactor to 0.1~1 MPa, stir and heat up to 40~60 °C, and react for 0.5~1 h. S3. Lower the reaction temperature below 20 °C, stop stirring, discharge N2, and reduce the pressure in the reactor to atmospheric pressure. S4. Heat up to 60~80 °C again, start stirring, and react for 0.5~1 h.

[0007] Furthermore, the Ti-M-MFI catalyst is an oxidation-acid bifunctional catalyst.

[0008] Preferably, the Ti-M-MFI catalyst is an oxidation-acid bifunctional catalyst prepared by a sequential introduction method, and its framework contains titanium and trivalent ion M 3+ , and the sequential introduction method is to first introduce titanium into the molecular sieve framework to form oxidation sites, and then introduce trivalent ion M 3+ , to form acid sites; preferably, the trivalent ion M 3+ is selected from at least one of 3+ B 3+ Al 3+ Ga.

[0009] Furthermore, in step S1, the organic solvent is one or a combination of acetonitrile and acetone; preferably, the organic solvent is a mixed solvent of acetonitrile and acetone, and the volume ratio of acetonitrile to acetone in the mixed solvent is 1 : (0.1~10).

[0010] Furthermore, in step S1, the mass ratio of the Ti-M-MFI catalyst to hydrogen peroxide is 1:(1~10); preferably, the mass ratio is 1:(2~5).

[0011] Further, in step S1, the α-olefin is an α-olefin with 5 or more carbon atoms; the molar ratio of hydrogen peroxide to α-olefin is 1:(0.8 - 10); preferably, the molar ratio is 1:(1 - 5).

[0012] Further, in step S1, the molar ratio of hydrogen peroxide to organic solvent is 1:(5 - 50); preferably, the molar ratio is 1:(20 - 30).

[0013] Further, in step S1, the regulator is ammonium acetate, and the molar ratio of ammonium acetate to hydrogen peroxide is 1:(100 - 2000); preferably, the molar ratio is 1:(500 - 1000).

[0014] Further, in step S1, the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide raw material is 30wt% - 70wt%; preferably, the concentration is 47.5wt% - 55wt%.

[0015] Further, in step S3, the reaction temperature is rapidly decreased to below 20°C within 10 s; in step S4, the reaction temperature is rapidly increased to 60 - 80°C again within 10 s. This is to reduce the ineffective decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) The combined production method of 1,2-epoxyalkane / 1,2-diol provided by the present invention innovatively uses an oxidation-acid bifunctional catalyst, especially an oxidation-acid bifunctional catalyst prepared by a sequential introduction method. The excellent catalytic oxidation and acid catalytic activities of this catalyst enable the epoxidation-hydration process to proceed efficiently. By regulating the relative contents of the two sites, the ratio of 1,2-epoxyalkane and 1,2-diol can be adjusted to meet the industry's demand for product output.

[0017] (2) During the reaction process, N2 is used to increase the system pressure, maintain the solubility of long-chain olefins in the reaction solution, and promote the efficient progress of the epoxidation step. Moreover, as an inert gas with a relatively high heat capacity, N2 can absorb and disperse the heat released by the reaction, preventing local overheating from causing an increase in side reactions and rapid deactivation of the catalyst.

[0018] (3) In the initial stage of the variable-temperature reaction process, the epoxidation step of α-olefin and hydrogen peroxide mainly occurs. A lower temperature is beneficial to the effective conversion of hydrogen peroxide. In the later stage, the hydration step of epoxyalkane mainly occurs. A higher temperature can promote the hydration step and the diffusion of diol products. And the α-olefin is mainly a long-chain olefin with 5 or more carbon atoms, achieving the one-step production of two target products, epoxyalkane and diol, from long-chain olefins.
