The invention discloses a synthesis method of 1, 1, 3, 3-tetramethyl butyl peroxypivalate, which comprises the following steps: sequentially adding
soft water, isoparaffin and TOHP into a reaction kettle, cooling, dropwise adding inorganic base, keeping for 15 minutes, and cooling to 10 DEG C; after alkalization is finished,
pivaloyl chloride is dropwise added, the rotating speed is increased, the temperature is kept for 120 min, water is added after the temperature is kept for 15 min, stirring is stopped after the temperature is kept for 15 min, standing is conducted for 30 min, a separating funnel is used for
material separation, and a crude product is obtained; adding glacial
acetic acid into the crude product, then adding triisobutyl
lithium borohydride, separating by using a separating funnel, then adding a
sodium hydroxide solution and
soft water, and finally separating to obtain a fine sample; and
drying the high-quality sample to obtain the 1, 1, 3, 3-tetramethyl butyl peroxypivalate. The 1, 1, 3, 3-tetramethyl butyl peroxypivalate provided by the invention is simple, safe and environment-friendly to synthesize, and the produced refined product is high in purity and low in
water content.
