Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of organic compound purification technology, and in particular to a trimethylsilyl azide distillation apparatus. Background Technology
[0002] Trimethylsilyl azide is a commonly used organosilicon compound, usually a colorless liquid, readily soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers. As an azide reagent, it is mainly used in organic synthesis and materials science, and is widely used in various chemical reactions, especially showing unique advantages in the preparation of nitrogen-containing compounds.
[0003] In actual use, the following shortcomings were found in this device:
[0004] Trimethylsilane azide is sensitive to heat, mechanical shock, and electrostatics. In the distillation and purification process of trimethylsilane azide (TMSN3), the condensation system is the core link to ensure safety and purification efficiency. Due to the high volatility, thermal instability, and potential explosion risk of TMSN3, uncondensed azide vapor may accumulate in the pipeline and decompose and explode when heated or rubbed (such as generating highly reactive HN3). In addition, TMSN3 has a low boiling point (95–98℃) and needs to be condensed quickly to avoid loss, especially under high vacuum conditions.
[0005] Therefore, this application provides a trimethylsilane azide distillation apparatus to meet the requirements. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned background technology by proposing a trimethylsilane azide distillation apparatus.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] A trimethylsilane azide distillation apparatus includes: a frame, a controller, a mounting rack, a magnetic stirring heating mantle, an electrically heated distillation column, a first support, a distillation head, a second support, a collection flask, a third support, a primary water-cooling pipe, a secondary water-cooling pipe, a gas inlet pipe, and a drain pipe. The controller is mounted on the upper left side of the frame, and the mounting rack is welded to the lower right side of the frame. The magnetic stirring heating mantle is mounted on the mounting rack, and the electrically heated distillation column is mounted on the upper inner part of the magnetic stirring heating mantle. The side of the electrically heated distillation column... A first support is installed at the outer end, a distillation head is installed at the top of the electrically heated distillation column, a second support is installed at the upper right end of the frame, a collection bottle is fixedly installed inside the tube sleeve of the second support, a third support is installed at the top right side of the frame, a primary water-cooling pipe is installed inside the tube sleeve of the third support, a secondary water-cooling pipe is installed inside the tube sleeve of the third support located on the side of the primary water-cooling pipe, a gas guide pipe is installed at the bottom of the primary water-cooling pipe, and a drain pipe is installed at the outlet of the upper end of the primary water-cooling pipe.
[0009] Preferably, the third support extends vertically upward to the upper end of the distillation head, and the primary water cooling pipe and the secondary water cooling pipe are located on the upper side of the distillation head through the third support.
[0010] Preferably, both the primary and secondary water-cooling pipes are inclined at 15°.
[0011] Preferably, the gas guide pipe at the bottom of the primary water-cooling pipe is connected to the top of the distillation head, and the gas guide pipe is made of PTFE material. The bottom of the distillation head is connected to the collection bottle through a PTFE connector.
[0012] Preferably, the other end of the drain pipe is connected downward to the water inlet at the lower end of the side of the secondary water-cooling pipe, and the water outlet at the upper end of the side of the secondary water-cooling pipe is connected to an external connecting pipe.
[0013] Preferably, the primary water-cooling tube is a serpentine condenser tube, and the inner core tube of the primary water-cooling tube is spiral.
[0014] Preferably, the secondary water-cooling tube is a spherical condenser tube, and the inner core tube of the secondary water-cooling tube has a spherical structure.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0016] In the above scheme, by setting up a dual condensation structure, the steam introduced from the distillation head flows through the inner tube of the first-stage water-cooled pipe and is condensed. The lower opening of the outer tube of the first-stage water-cooled pipe is connected to a water tap. The condensation of the steam occurs on the inner wall of the inner tube. The space enclosed by the inner and outer tubes provides the water flow zone with the ability to absorb the heat of the steam and remove the heat. The steam condensed in the first-stage water-cooled pipe is introduced into the second-stage water-cooled pipe for further condensation. The cooling water from the outer tube of the first-stage water-cooled pipe enters the second-stage water-cooled pipe through the drain pipe to further condense the steam entering the second-stage water-cooled pipe. This can improve the safety of trimethylsilane distillation.
[0017] In the above scheme, by setting the first-stage water-cooling tube as a serpentine condenser tube with a spiral inner core tube, the length of the glass tube and the cooling area are significantly increased, allowing for more sufficient contact between the steam and the cooling medium and achieving a higher heat exchange effect. The second-stage water-cooling tube is a spherical condenser tube, and the spherical inner core tube makes it easier for the condensate to collect, ensuring that low-boiling-point components are completely condensed during reflux and reducing exhaust emissions.

The controller 2 is mounted on the upper left side of the frame 1, and the mounting rack 3 is welded to the lower right side of the frame 1. The magnetic stirring heating mantle 4 is mounted on the mounting rack 3, and the electrically heated distillation column 5 is mounted on the upper inner part of the magnetic stirring heating mantle 4. A first support 6 is installed at the outer side of the electrically heated distillation column 5, a distillation head 7 is installed at the top of the electrically heated distillation column 5, a second support 8 is installed at the upper right side of the frame 1, a collection bottle 9 is fixedly installed inside the tube sleeve of the second support 8, a third support 10 is installed at the top right side of the frame 1, a primary water-cooling pipe 11 is installed inside the tube sleeve of the third support 10, a secondary water-cooling pipe 12 is installed inside the tube sleeve of the third support 10 located on the side of the primary water-cooling pipe 11, a gas guide pipe 13 is installed at the bottom of the primary water-cooling pipe 11, and a drain pipe 14 is installed at the outlet of the upper end of the primary water-cooling pipe 11.
[0029] In this embodiment, the third support 10 extends vertically upward to the upper end of the distillation head 7, and the primary water cooling pipe 11 and the secondary water cooling pipe 12 are located at the upper end of the side of the distillation head 7 through the third support 10. The primary water cooling pipe 11 and the secondary water cooling pipe 12 are used to condense vapor, ensuring that the vapor generated during distillation of the distillation head 7 can smoothly flow upward into the primary water cooling pipe 11.
[0030] In this embodiment, both the primary water-cooling pipe 11 and the secondary water-cooling pipe 12 are inclined at 15° to better collect condensate.

The space enclosed by the inner and outer tubes provides the water flow area with the ability to absorb the heat of the steam and remove the heat.

[0033] In this embodiment, the primary water-cooling tube 11 is a serpentine condenser tube, and the inner core tube of the primary water-cooling tube 11 is spiral, which significantly increases the length of the glass tube and the cooling area, making the contact between the steam and the cooling medium more sufficient and achieving a higher heat exchange effect.
[0034] In this embodiment, the secondary water-cooling tube 12 is a spherical condenser tube, and the inner core tube of the secondary water-cooling tube 12 has a spherical structure.
