Method for synthesizing valeraldehyde through butene hydroformylation

The invention relates to a method for synthesizing valeraldehyde through butene hydroformylation, and particularly provides a phosphorus-containing organic polymer supported heterogeneous catalysis method for synthesizing valeraldehyde through butene hydroformylation. The method is characterized by comprising steps as follows: liquid butene is metered by an electronic metering balance and continuously enters a reactor with synthesis gas, a hydroformylation reaction is performed under the action of a phosphorus-containing organic polymer supported heterogeneous catalyst, and a valeraldehyde product continuously flows out of the reactor and then is separated from the catalyst and produced continuously. The method has the characteristics of high catalytic activity and good product selectivity, almost no butane is contained in the product, and a molar ratio of n-valeraldehyde to isovaleraldehyde can reach 2-65; besides, the catalyst is good in stability, the product and the catalyst can achieve the excellent-performance characteristics of being simple to separate and the like, then industrial low-cost production of a butene hydroformylation product is realized, and new idea and technical guidance are provided for industrialization of the butene hydroformylation.

Method for synthesizing pregabalin with isobutyl butanedinitrile as intermediate

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing pregabalin with isobutyl butanedinitrile as the intermediate. The method includes the steps of conducting the Knoevenagel condensation reaction on isovaleraldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate in cyclohexane solvent with piperazine as the catalyst, conducting Michael addition on the product obtained in the first step and cyanic acid in alkaline alcohol solvent, conducting the decarboxylic reaction on the product obtained in the second step in isopropanol solvent under the heating condition to obtain the isobutyl butanedinitrile solvent, conducting hydrolysis on the intermediate under catalysis of cyanide hydratase AtNiTl, and conducting catalytic hydrogenation with raney nickel as the catalyst. According to the method, isoamyl aldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate which are low in price and easy to obtain are used as raw materials, and the isobutyl butanedinitrile intermediate is obtained through the Knoevenagel condensation reaction, Michael addition and the decarboxylic reaction. The intermediate is then catalyzed, hydrolyzed and reduced through cyanide hydratase AtNiTl, and pregabalin is obtained. The reaction route is simple, the yield of each step of reaction is high, and therefore the final total recovery and purity of pregabalin are ensured.
