The invention discloses a method for inhibiting a
deamination side reaction in a
hydrogenation process of 2, 4-
diaminotoluene, and relates to the technical field of
chemical production. The method comprises the following steps: adding a supported single-
metal ruthenium-based heterogeneous catalyst, 2, 4-
diaminotoluene, a
deamination inhibitor and a reaction
solvent into a reaction kettle, sealing the reaction kettle, replacing air in the kettle for three times with N2 at
room temperature, starting low-speed stirring at 10-100 rpm, simultaneously introducing H2 to replace the
atmosphere in the reaction kettle, dissolving a part of
hydrogen, finally introducing H2 to the pressure of 2-5 MPa, controlling the temperature to be 150-200 DEG C, and reacting for 1-2 hours to obtain the 2, 4-
diaminotoluene. And increasing the stirring speed to 700-1000rpm, and carrying out
hydrogenation reaction for 8-15h to obtain a corresponding product. According to the method, the
deamination inhibitor is adopted to inhibit the deamination
side reaction in the process of preparing the HTDA by catalyzing TDA hydrogenation through the loaded single-
metal ruthenium-based heterogeneous catalyst, efficient and green preparation of the target product HTDA is achieved, the selectivity of the HTDA is improved by 20%-30%, the deamination
side reaction is basically avoided, the atom
utilization rate of the reaction is improved, and the requirement for equipment is low.
