[0041] As a preferred solution of this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the discharge port 20 of the reaction kettle 1 is connected to a product receiving tank 22 through a product material transfer pump 21.

[0042] The following takes the production of potassium tert-amylate as an example to illustrate the working process of the synthesis device for medium-carbon alcohol alkoxide:

[0043] The reaction kettle 1 is kept dry, nitrogen protection is turned on, and nitrogen is allowed to enter the reaction kettle 1 from the protective gas inlet 18. When feeding materials, the feeding valve 24 and the solvent material transfer pump 13 are opened, and 100 kg of cyclohexane in the solvent tank 14 is transported to the solvent feeding port 12 of the reaction kettle 1 for feeding; 20.7 kg of anhydrous potassium hydride in the solid raw material storage tank 8 is transported to the solid feeding port 6 of the reaction kettle 1 through a scraper-type solid conveyor 7 for feeding. The stirring motor 16 is turned on, and stirring is started using the stirring paddle 15, and the stirring speed is kept at 500 - 1000 rpm. The reaction kettle jacket coil 4 is heated, and the thermometer 17 is used for real-time detection until the reaction system reaches about 80 °C. 8.8 kg of tert-amyl alcohol in the liquid raw material dropping tank 11 is quantitatively and uniformly added dropwise to the liquid raw material feeding port 9 of the reaction kettle 1 using a peristaltic pump 10, and it is dropped in about 1 h. After the dropping is completed, the reaction continues until no more bubbles are generated, and then the reaction stops after 1 h; the reaction solution is distilled to obtain the target product potassium tert-amylate, and the distilled cyclohexane solvent enters the solvent receiving tank 3 after being condensed by the condenser 2 for recycling. After the reaction is completed, the nitrogen is discharged from the exhaust safety valve 19 behind the condenser 2. The discharge port 20 directly below the reaction kettle 1 is opened for discharging, and the discharged white potassium tert-amylate powder is transported to the product receiving tank 22 through the product material transfer pump 21 and the pipeline 23.

[0045] Elemental analysis: C, 47.55; H, 8.71; K, 30.99; O, 12.75

[0046] Product detection method:

[0047] (1) Determination of total alkali (content): Weigh about 0.5 g of the sample (accurate to 0.0002 g) and place it in a dry 100 mL iodine flask. Add about 20 mL of distilled water (boiled and cooled) to dissolve, shake well and let stand for 5 min. Add 3 drops of 1% phenolphthalein indicator, and titrate with 0.5 mol / L hydrochloric acid standard solution until it turns colorless as the end point. The total alkali content of potassium tert-butoxide is expressed as a mass fraction and calculated according to the following formula: X1 = C * V * 0.12624 / m * 100%, where: C represents the concentration of the hydrochloric acid standard solution (mol / L); V represents the volume of the hydrochloric acid standard solution consumed (mL); m represents the mass of the sample (g).

[0048] (2) Determination of free alkali:

[0049] Add 5 mL of benzoic acid - methanol solution and 15 - 20 mL of methanol as the mother liquor into the reaction flask, just covering the electrode. Titrate with Karl Fischer reagent until the pointer of the ammeter deflects greatly and remains unchanged for 30 s as the end point, without counting the consumption. Then weigh about 0.5 g of the sample (accurate to 0.0002 g), quickly add it into the reaction flask, and titrate with Karl Fischer reagent until the pointer of the ammeter deflects as much as in the blank experiment and remains unchanged for 30 s, which is the end point. Record the volume of Karl Fischer reagent consumed. The mass percentage of water is calculated according to the following formula: X2 = T * V / m * 100%. Where, T represents the titration degree of Karl Fischer reagent to water (g / mL); V represents the volume of Karl Fischer reagent consumed for titrating the sample (mL); m represents the mass of the sample (g). Take the arithmetic mean of the results of two parallel determinations as the determination result, and the difference between the results of two parallel determinations is not more than 0.1%. Then calculate the free alkali content according to the formula X3 = 3.111X2, where 3.111 is the conversion coefficient for converting water to potassium hydroxide.

[0050] Example 2:

[0051] This example gives a method for preparing a solution of potassium tert-hexoxide in heptane using the synthesis device of medium-carbon alcohol alkoxide given in Example 1.

[0052] The feeding method is the same as that in Example 1. The solvent is 120 kg of dry heptane, 19.5 kg of anhydrous potassium hydride. The heating jacket of the reaction kettle is turned on to heat up the reaction system to about 100 °C. 10.2 kg of tert-hexyl alcohol is added dropwise to the reaction solution, and it is added dropwise in about 1.5 h. After the addition is completed, the reaction continues for 5 h, and HPLC or GC is used for tracking detection. The detection method is to take a little reaction solution and dry it with a rotary evaporator. The reacted solution is detected to have no residual tert-hexyl alcohol, indicating that the reaction is completed. After the reaction is completed, the filtrate is prepared into a potassium tert-hexoxide heptane solution with a concentration of 9.71% for standby.
