TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fuel additives, in particular to a hydrated amine carbon dioxide carbonylation anti-knock agent, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous improvement of global environmental protection requirements and the continuous increase of carbon emission reduction pressure, the traditional anti-knock agent technology is facing unprecedented challenges. Although metal anti-knock agents such as MMT (methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl) have significant effects on improving octane value (0.20-0.25 ON / ppm), they are strictly limited due to the problems of engine deposits and environmental pollution caused by metal residues. The traditional oxygen-containing anti-knock agent MTBE has been banned in many countries due to groundwater pollution.
[0003] Although the existing non-metal anti-knock agents are environmentally friendly, their octane value contribution efficiency is generally low, such as the ONCE value of MTBE is only 0.03-0.04 ON / ppm, which cannot achieve ideal anti-knock effect while considering environmental protection. More importantly, the existing technical path has not effectively solved the problem of CO2 resource utilization and anti-knock agent preparation.
[0004] Traditional CO2 conversion technology often requires harsh reaction conditions (high temperature 120-180℃, high pressure 8-15MPa) or expensive noble metal catalysts (such as rhodium, palladium, etc.), which seriously restricts its industrial application prospects. In particular, in the electrochemical reduction of CO2, the conventional method has problems such as catalyst poisoning, difficulty in controlling selectivity, high energy consumption, etc., making it difficult to achieve efficient conversion of CO2 to high-value-added chemicals.
[0005] Hydrated electron-based liquid as a new strong reducing carrier has super strong electron-donating ability (oxidation-reduction potential up to-800mV) and excellent stability in strong alkaline environment, but its application in the preparation of anti-knock agents by CO2 carbonylation has not been reported. The existing technology lacks an effective technical path to combine CO2 resource utilization with green anti-knock agent preparation. SUMMARY
[0006] The purpose of the present application is to provide a hydrated amine carbon dioxide carbonylation anti-knock agent, a preparation method and application thereof, which solves the environmental pollution problem of traditional anti-knock agents and the technical problem of CO2 resource utilization, and realizes the coordinated development of greenhouse gas emission reduction and efficient anti-knock agent preparation.

The four amines are mixed in a specific ratio for the preparation of the CO2 carbonylation anti-knock agent, which has the following technical advantages: 1. complementary molecular structure, adjustment of polarity and solubility: n-decylamine and tetradecylamine are long-chain aliphatic amines, and the N-formylate generated in the reaction has a relatively long alkyl chain, which is beneficial to dispersion and dissolution in hydrophobic gasoline phase; and the medium and short-chain 4-isopropyl aniline and tri(2-ethylhexyl)amine are used to adjust the overall polarity and viscosity of the mixture. 2. balance of reaction activity and conversion rate: the nucleophilicity and basicity of different amines are different, the reaction rate of n-decylamine with CO2 is moderate, and a higher yield of N-formylate can be obtained; the more active tri(2-ethylhexyl)amine can quickly form carbamic acid salt, which is then efficiently converted into formamide by hydrogenation. 3. optimization of physical properties: tetradecylamine has the largest molecular weight, so that the viscosity of the mixture is moderate at room temperature and is not easy to volatilize; the N-formylate generated by n-decylamine and tri(2-ethylhexyl)amine forms a more uniform free radical capture layer in the engine combustion chamber.
[0009] Preferably, the amine mixture contains, by mass percentage, n-decylamine: 30-40%, tetradecylamine: 45-55%, 4-isopropyl aniline: 5-15% and tri(2-ethylhexyl)amine: 3-8%. The four amines are mixed in a specific ratio for the preparation of the CO2 carbonylation anti-knock agent, which has the following technical advantages: 1. complementary molecular structure, adjustment of polarity and solubility: n-decylamine and tetradecylamine are long-chain aliphatic amines, and the N-formylate generated in the reaction has a relatively long alkyl chain, which is beneficial to dispersion and dissolution in hydrophobic gasoline phase; and the medium and short-chain 4-isopropyl aniline and tri(2-ethylhexyl)amine are used to adjust the overall polarity and viscosity of the mixture. 2. balance of reaction activity and conversion rate: the nucleophilicity and basicity of different amines are different, the reaction rate of n-decylamine with CO2 is moderate, and a higher yield of N-formylate can be obtained; the more active tri(2-ethylhexyl)amine can quickly form carbamic acid salt, which is then efficiently converted into formamide by hydrogenation. 3. optimization of physical properties: tetradecylamine has the largest molecular weight, so that the viscosity of the mixture is moderate at room temperature and is not easy to volatilize; the N-formylate generated by n-decylamine and tri(2-ethylhexyl)amine forms a more uniform free radical capture layer in the engine combustion chamber.
[0010] The application discloses a preparation method of a hydrated amine carbon dioxide carbonylation anti-knock agent, and comprises the following steps: step one, preparing a hydrated electron base solution with a pH value of 14.0 and an oxidation-reduction potential of -350 mV to -1.8 V under the protection of inert gas; step two, performing oxygen removal treatment on a reaction kettle so that the oxygen content in the reaction kettle is less than 5 ppm; step three, adding an amine mixture and the hydrated electron base solution into the reaction kettle at a time under the protection of inert gas, sealing the reaction kettle, and then adding CO2; the mass ratio of the amine mixture, the hydrated electron base solution and CO2 ranges from 6.0 to 9.0:0.8 to 1.2:7.0 to 11.0; step four, stirring the mixture, wherein the stirring speed is 400 rpm to 500 rpm, the stirring temperature is 34.8 DEG C to 50 DEG C, the stirring pressure is 35 kg to 45 kg, and the stirring time is 4 hours to 6 hours; and step five, keeping the stirring pressure and the stirring temperature unchanged, and standing for 10 hours to 13 hours to obtain a liquid.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0017] Figure 1 This is the basic flow chart of the present invention. Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the molecular configuration and electron cloud distribution of the anti-explosion agent of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] In order to better understand the technical content of the present invention, the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0019] Example 1: Carbonylation of n-decylamine Raw material feeding: 60g of n-decylamine, 8g of hydrated electronic base liquid (pH≈16, ORP≈-500mV), 70g of CO2; a total of 138g The hydrated electronic base liquid is prepared by using the method patented in US11691906B1.
[0020] A 1 L steel autoclave was selected, the autoclave was deoxygenated to make the oxygen content <5 ppm, under nitrogen protection, n-decylamine and hydrated electron base liquid were added into the autoclave, after sealing, CO2 was slowly introduced, and the pressure was increased to about 38-40 kg; the reaction temperature was controlled at 48-50°C, the stirring speed was 400-500 rpm, the reaction was carried out for 4-6 h, then the pressure was kept for 10-12 h, the yield of the liquid was 60 g+8 g+21 g=89 g, and the liquid mainly contained N-formyl n-decylamine and n-decylamine carbamate.
[0021] After standing for 10 hours, the degree of formylation in the liquid was about 40%; After standing for 11 hours, the degree of formylation in the liquid was about 46%; After standing for 12 hours, the degree of formylation in the liquid was about 50%; In this embodiment, the chemical utilization rate of CO2 was about 30%.
[0022] Example 2: Carbonylation of 4-isopropylaniline Raw material feeding: 4-isopropylaniline 60 g, hydrated electron base liquid 8 g (pH≈16, ORP≈-800 mV), CO2 70 g.
[0023] Reaction conditions: The same equipment as in Example 1 was used.
[0024] Due to the slightly lower activity of aromatic amines, the stirring stage can be appropriately extended to 6 h, the temperature is kept at 50°C, the pressure is about 40 kg, and the other parameters are the same as in Example 1. Finally, the yield of the liquid is 60 g+8 g+17.5 g=85.5 g.
[0025] The obtained mixture contains N-formyl 4-isopropylaniline and its carbonate salt.
[0026] After standing for 10 hours, the degree of formylation in the liquid was about 35%; After standing for 11 hours, the degree of formylation in the liquid was about 37%; After standing for 12 hours, the degree of formylation in the liquid was about 40%; In this embodiment, the chemical utilization rate of CO2 was about 25%.
[0027] Example 3: Co-carbonylation of tri(2-ethylhexyl)amine and tetradecylamine Raw material feeding: Amine mixture 110 g+hydrated electron base liquid 15 g+CO2 120 g=245 g Reaction conditions: The same operation in the oxygen removal autoclave. After the amine was added once, CO2 was introduced to increase the pressure to about 40 kg, the reaction was carried out for 5 h, and was left for 11 h, and finally the yield of the feed liquid was 110 g+15 g+54 g=179 g.
[0028] The chemical utilization rate of CO2 was about 45%.
[0029] The feed liquid obtained in this example contains N-formyl tri(2-ethylhexyl) amine, N-formyl tetradecylamine and corresponding carbamate compounds, and the degree of carbonylation can reach 45%. The solubility of the carbonylation products of the two amines in gasoline is complementary, so it can be seen that the performance of the antiknock agent can be optimized by adjusting the ratio of different amines.
[0030] The above three examples show that different amines can generate corresponding N-formyl amides and carbamate compounds under the conditions of hydrated electrons and CO2.
[0031] Example 4: Preparation of antiknock agent by carbonylation of mixed amine with n-decylamine as the main component, Raw material preparation: Ammonia mixture 300 g (n-decylamine 106 g, tetradecylamine 149 g, 4-isopropyl aniline 30 g, tri(2-ethylhexyl) amine 15 g) Hydrated electron base liquid 40 g (pH=16.0, ORP -500 mV, density 1.20 g / mL), CO2 (industrial grade, ≥99.9%) 350 g; Reaction equipment: 1000 ml steel autoclave; As Figure 1 shown, the preparation method of the application is as follows: Step 1: Reactor pretreatment The 1000 ml steel autoclave was subjected to systematic oxygen removal treatment. First, vacuum to 0.1 kPa, then fill high-purity nitrogen (99.999%) to normal pressure, repeat this process 3 times, ensure that the oxygen content in the reactor is <5 ppm. The reactor is equipped with a precision temperature control system (±1℃), a pressure monitoring system and a high-efficiency mechanical stirrer; Step 2: Establishing the reaction system Under the protection of nitrogen, 300 g of amine mixture and 40 g of hydrated electron base liquid were added into the reactor at one time. After sealing the reactor, 350 g of CO2 was accurately introduced by mass flow controller to establish the initial pressure. At this time, the reaction system showed a characteristic deep blue color, indicating that the hydrated electron base liquid was in an active state; Step 3: Intensive stirring reaction phase Start mechanical stirrer, set speed at 400 rpm. Control reaction temperature to gradually increase from initial 34.8 °C to 50 °C, pressure stabilizes at 38 kg. Intensive stirring for 6 h under this condition. During the reaction, the color of the system gradually changes from dark blue to red, and finally presents orange-brown, which intuitively reflects the degree of chemical reaction; Step 4: Equilibrium reaction phase Stop mechanical stirring, stand for 13 h at 38 kg constant pressure and 50 °C temperature; Step 5: Product collection and preliminary analysis After the reaction is completed, slowly release the pressure and collect the reaction product. 335 g of orange-brown uniform product is obtained, no stratification phenomenon, no odor volatilization. Through material balance calculation, it is determined that: CO2 consumption is 224 g (64% utilization rate), of which 56 g (16%) is consumed in carbonylation reaction, and 155 g of formamide compound mixture is formed.
[0032] As Figure 2 shown, the reaction mechanism and chemical equation of the present application are as follows: The mechanism of the hydrated electron-based liquid promoting CO2 carbonylation reaction is as follows: CO2 molecules in the hydrated electron-based liquid first form CO2• - radical anions through electron transfer: CO2 + e - (aq) → CO2• - The CO2 activation mechanism may include: Direct electron transfer: CO2 + e - (aq) → CO2• - Base-catalyzed activation: CO2 + OH - → HCO3 - Synergistic mechanism: amine-CO2 - formation of hydrated electron ternary complex Activated CO2• - radical anions and amine molecules undergo carbonylation reaction: For aliphatic amines (taking n-decylamine as an example): C 10 H 21 NH2 + CO2• - → C 10 H 21 NH-COO - + H• C 10 H 21 NH-COO - + H• → C 10 H 21NH-CHO (N-formyl n-decylamine) For aromatic amines (e.g. 4-isopropylaniline): (CH3)2CH-C6H4-NH2 + CO2• - → (CH3)2CH-C6H4-NH-COO - + H• (CH3)2CH-C6H4-NH-COO - + H• → (CH3)2CH-C6H4-NH-CHO Some amines directly react with CO2 to form carbamates: 2RNH2 + CO2 → RNH3 + + RNHCOO - (carbamate) Catalytic hydrogenation of carbamates: RNHCOO - + H2 -> [Pd / C] -> RNH-CHO + H2O This reaction pathway produces carbonyl amine products with unique electronic structure and spatial configuration: 1. The high electron density of the formyl group makes it an excellent radical acceptor; 2. The lone pair of electrons on the N atom enhances the nucleophilicity of the molecule, helping to capture active radicals in combustion; 3. The long-chain alkyl group (n-decylamine, tetradecylamine, etc.) provides good oil solubility, ensuring uniform dispersion in gasoline; 4. The overall configuration of the molecule is conducive to the formation of a protective film in the combustion chamber, inhibiting the knock chain reaction.
[0033] Therefore, the unique molecular configuration and electron cloud distribution of the formamide anti-knock agent produced by the invention are the molecular basis for its excellent anti-knock performance. Compared with traditional synthesis methods, this pathway has higher selectivity (45.5%) and atomic economy.

[0043] 338 g of reaction product needs to be purified by a systematic extraction purification process to obtain an antiknock agent product that meets the application standard. Based on the chemical composition and physical properties of the product, a multi-stage extraction separation process was designed. First, ethyl acetate was used as an extractant to separate formamide compounds by selective dissolution, with an expected recovery rate of more than 90%. Second, n-butanol was used to extract carbamate, with a recovery rate of about 85%; The conversion of carbamates is a crucial step in improving the overall octane booster yield. Through a catalytic hydrogenation process (using a 5% Pd / C catalyst, at 80°C, 2.0 MPa H2, for 4 hours), carbamates can be efficiently converted into formamidines, with a conversion rate expected to exceed 75%. This conversion process not only increases the overall yield of octane boosters but also enables further CO2 fixation and utilization; Considering the extraction recovery rate and conversion efficiency, approximately 304g of high-purity formamidine octane boosters can be obtained from 338g of reaction products. This yield level is quite outstanding in the fine chemical industry, providing a solid foundation for the industrial application of the technology. The use of steel reactors also provides an important reference for the design of subsequent industrial equipment.
[0044] The 304g of formamidine octane boosters exhibit excellent performance potential in practical applications. According to the typical addition concentration of gasoline octane boosters, at a standard addition level of 500ppm, approximately 608L of gasoline can be treated; at a lower addition level of 300ppm, approximately 1013L of gasoline can be treated. This treatment capacity is already quite substantial for a single experimental output.
[0045] The working mechanism of formamidine octane boosters is mainly based on their free radical capture effect in the combustion process. In the combustion reaction of gasoline, formamidine compounds can effectively capture free radicals that cause detonation, thereby improving the anti-knock performance of gasoline. Compared with traditional oxygen-containing octane boosters, formamidine compounds do not cause groundwater pollution; compared with metal-containing octane boosters, their combustion products are cleaner and do not form harmful deposits in the engine.
[0046] From an environmental perspective, the use of formamidine octane boosters will significantly improve the environmental impact of gasoline combustion. Their combustion products are mainly CO2, H2O, and N2, without heavy metals or toxic organic substances. This clean combustion characteristic meets the increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements and makes an important contribution to the development of green fuel technology.
[0047] The most important environmental significance of this technology is the efficient resource utilization of CO2. Each batch consumes 378 grams of CO2, equivalent to reducing 0.378 kg of greenhouse gas emissions. Although the emission reduction of a single batch is relatively limited, the scalable nature of the technology makes it have significant cumulative emission reduction potential. According to a scale of 1000 tons of octane boosters per year, approximately 1250 tons of CO2 can be consumed annually, with an emission reduction effect equivalent to planting about 60,000 mature trees.
[0048] More importantly, this emission reduction is achieved by converting CO2 into valuable chemicals, rather than simple sequestration or disposal. This resource utilization mode not only solves the problem of greenhouse gas emission reduction, but also creates actual economic value, embodying the benign combination of environmental protection and economic development. With the establishment and improvement of global carbon pricing mechanism, this double value will further highlight.
[0049] The life cycle environmental impact analysis of the technology shows that the environmental load is mainly concentrated in the production of amine raw materials in the whole process from raw material mining to product application. However, considering the recyclable characteristics of amine raw materials and the resource utilization benefits of CO2, the carbon footprint of the whole technology route is significantly lower than that of the traditional petroleum chemical route. Especially in the background of the increasing proportion of renewable energy power, the environmental friendliness of the technology will be further improved.
[0050] Advantages: Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following obvious advantages: 1. Technological innovation breakthrough: for the first time, the CO2 carbonylation reaction promoted by hydrated electron-based liquid is realized, which efficiently activates CO2 molecules under mild conditions (50℃, 40kg pressure) to form a CO2• - radical anion intermediate. This activation method is fundamentally different from traditional catalytic activation methods, which do not rely on noble metal catalysts and do not require high temperature and high pressure conditions (traditional methods require 120-180℃, 8-15MPa);
[0051] 2. Outstanding environmental benefits: each batch consumes 378g of CO2, and the annual production of 1000 tons of antiknock agent can consume about 1250 tons of CO2, which is equivalent to planting about 60,000 adult trees. The combustion products of the product are clean (mainly CO2, H2O, N2), do not contain heavy metals or toxic organic matter, and meet strict environmental protection requirements;
[0052] 3. Excellent antiknock performance: the prepared formamide antiknock agent shows excellent octane number improvement effect in the addition concentration range of 100-500ppm. For 92# gasoline, every 100ppm can improve 0.8-1.5 octane number; for 95# gasoline, every 100ppm can improve 0.8-1.3 octane number; for 98# gasoline, every 100ppm can improve 0.8-1.5 octane number. This linear relationship facilitates accurate adjustment of the addition amount according to the needs of different specifications of gasoline;
[0053] 4. Reasonable process economy: the reaction conditions are mild, the equipment requirements are relatively simple, and the steel reactor technology is mature and reliable. The raw material cost is reasonable, the product has high added value, and it has good economic feasibility. The process has strong scalability and is suitable for industrial production;
[0054] 5. Good product stability: excellent thermal stability (loss ≤8% at 150℃ / 24h), long storage stability (≥12 months), good compatibility with gasoline, no engine deposits or groundwater pollution;
[0055] 6. Resource utilization value: CO2 waste is converted into high-value anti-knock agent, embodying the concept of circular economy. CO2 utilization rate is 63.5%, of which 37% forms stable chemical bonds, providing a new way for CO2 resource utilization;
[0056] 7. Raw material ratio optimization: through scientific proportioning of four kinds of amines, perfect combination of molecular structure complementation, reaction activity balance and physical property optimization is realized, and the comprehensive performance of the product is maximized.
