Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a green preparation method of 1,4-cyclohexanedimethyl diisocyanate. BACKGROUND

[0002] 1,4-cyclohexanedimethyl diisocyanate (H6XDI) is a high-performance alicyclic diisocyanate, and the polyurethane material prepared therefrom has the characteristics of yellowing resistance and high mechanical strength, and is widely used in high-end coatings, elastomers and other fields. At present, the industrial preparation method of alicyclic diisocyanate is mainly a toxic phosgene method, but in this process type, toxic phosgene is used, which has great danger in use, transportation and storage, and needs to adopt various strict safety measures. The requirements for equipment in the production process are particularly high, the service life of the equipment is short, and there are various defects or hidden dangers. For example, CN106674056B discloses that 1,3-cyclohexanedimethylamine is salted with hydrogen chloride in a two-phase reaction solvent, and then the amine salt is reacted with phosgene in an inert solvent to prepare H6XDI. Although the target product is successfully obtained, the reaction of 1,3-cyclohexanedimethylamine with hydrogen chloride is rapid, and the amine salt is wrapped and caked, which leads to uneven stirring and incomplete salting, and urea is easily generated when reacting with phosgene, and the color of the solution becomes dark. In addition, the process needs to prepare 1,3-cyclohexanedimethylamine hydrochloride first, which increases the energy consumption, and has many operation steps, and has the defects of large solvent consumption and complex operation.

[0003] The reaction of the non-phosgene process has high energy consumption and many by-products. CN111108094A, US20060025626A1 and JPH07165696A introduce a multi-stage process for continuously preparing alicyclic diisocyanate, in which alicyclic diamine is reacted with carbonic acid derivatives (urea and dimethyl carbonate, respectively) and alcohol to obtain alicyclic diaminoformic acid ester, and then the alicyclic diaminoformic acid ester is thermally cracked to obtain alicyclic diisocyanate. The method needs to be carried out at high temperature, and high-boiling-point impurities are easily generated, which adversely affects the overall yield.

[0004] JP2011111424 discloses that 1,3-cyclohexanedimethylamine is reacted with solid phosgene under low temperature conditions to prepare 1,3-dimethyl isocyanate cyclohexane. However, this method has the defects of many reaction by-products, long reaction time and low yield, and is not suitable for industrial production.

[0005] Therefore, it is of great significance to continue to research and develop a new method which can solve the defects of the prior art.

[0006] In view of this, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY

[0007] The present application aims to solve the problems of poor safety, multiple side reactions and low yield in the existing preparation method of 1,4-cyclohexane dimethyl diisocyanate, and provides an efficient preparation method by replacing phosgene with solid light, and through the synergistic effect of staged supplementing process and gradient temperature control.

[0008] The basic concept of the technical solution adopted by the present application is as follows:

[0009] A green preparation method of 1,4-cyclohexane dimethyl diisocyanate, comprising: preparing a solid light solution and a 1,4-cyclohexanedimethylamine solution with a non-polar solvent respectively; dropping the 1,4-cyclohexanedimethylamine solution into the solid light solution at 0-50℃ to carry out a cold light reaction, then warming up to 30-100℃ to carry out a warm light reaction; further adding the solid light solution, and warming up to 120-180℃ to carry out a hot light reaction; wherein the total molar ratio of bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate to 1,4-cyclohexanedimethylamine is 0.5-2:1.

[0010] As one way, the solid light solution is dynamically added in the hot light reaction stage, and the addition time of the solid light solution is 1-6h. The time of the cold light reaction is 0.5-3h; the time of the warm light reaction is 0.5-8h; and the time of the hot light reaction is 1-6h.

[0011] As one way, the content of bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate in the added solid light solution accounts for 40%-70% of the total amount of bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate.

[0012] As one way, the hot light reaction is carried out in two stages, first at 120℃ for 0.5-4h, and then at 160℃ for 0.5-2h.

[0013] As one way, stirring is carried out in the cold light reaction stage, the warm light reaction stage and the hot light reaction stage, and the stirring rate is controlled to be 200-500rpm.

[0014] As one way, in the cold light reaction stage, the initial molar feeding ratio of bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate in the solid light solution to 1,4-cyclohexanedimethylamine is 0.3-1.2:1.

[0015] As one way, after the hot light reaction, the reaction liquid is filtered, desolventized, and purified by reduced pressure distillation, and the fraction at 120-160℃ / 5mmHg is collected.

[0016] As one way, the prepared 1,4-cyclohexane dimethyl diisocyanate has a purity of ≥99.8% and a hydrolysis chlorine content of ≤0.1% detected by GC-MS.

[0017] As one way, the gas generated in the cold light reaction stage, the warm light reaction stage and the hot light reaction stage is collected and introduced into lye, and then dehydrated, boiled with salt and recovered.

[0018] As a way, the non-polar solvent obtained after the reaction solution is desolventized is recovered and reused; the non-polar solvent is 1,2-dichlorobenzene, xylene, n-hexane or cyclohexane.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0020] 1. The method of the present application uses 1,4-cyclohexanedimethylamine and bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate (also known as solid light or triphosgene) as reaction raw materials, uses a non-polar solvent (such as 1,2-dichlorobenzene, xylene, n-hexane or cyclohexane) as a solvent, and obtains a 1,4-cyclohexane diisocyanate reaction solution by mixing, cold light, warm light and hot light (additional solid light stabilizes the solid light concentration, so that the reaction proceeds in the forward direction).

[0021] By dynamically adding solid light in the hot light stage, the problem of side reactions caused by concentration fluctuations is solved, and in combination with three-stage gradient temperature control (matching reaction / by-product decomposition kinetics), the yield is increased from the traditional 40%~70% to more than 90% based on the replacement of phosgene with solid light.

[0022] 2. The method of the present application is simple, avoids the use of highly toxic phosgene, avoids the problems of phosgene production, transportation and storage, has high safety, long service life of equipment, and is easy to scale up production.

[0023] 3. The method of the present application reduces the amount of solid light added in the cold light stage, continuously and slowly adds solid light during the reaction, stabilizes the solid light content in the reaction solution, and makes the reaction proceed in the forward direction.

[0127] Test Example 1

[0128] In this test, the content of solid light at different reaction stages was detected by using aniline derivation method, taking Example 1 and Example 4 as examples.

[0129] 1 mL of reaction solution was taken into a 50 mL volumetric flask, 10 mL of acetonitrile solvent and 10 drops of aniline were added, and ultrasonic was performed for 30 min to generate bisphenyl urea, and then acetonitrile was added to the scale, and then it was shaken uniformly. The bisphenyl urea was quantitatively determined by liquid phase method.

[0130] Liquid phase conditions:

[0131] Chromatographic column: InertSustain C18 (250mm*4.6mm, 5mm)

[0132] Mobile phase: 70% methanol aqueous solution

[0133] Column temperature: 35°C

[0134] Wavelength: 254 nm

[0135] Flow rate: 1 mL / min

[0136] Injection volume: 3 uL

[0137] Analysis time: 30 min.

[0138] The results of the test are shown in Table 1. The % in Table 1 is mass fraction.

[0140]

[0141] By comparing example 1 and example 4, it is found that there is a big difference in reaction effect between adding all solid light at one time before thermal photo reaction and dynamic supplementing under the condition of same solid light.

[0142] The reason is that: in the thermal photo reaction stage, the solid light is rapidly decomposed, which affects the forward progress of the reaction. Combined with the determination of the reaction end point, when the mass fraction of solid light is less than 0.2%, the reaction cannot continue to proceed in the direction of product.
