Method and device for automatically washing purple urea acid
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of chemical pharmacy, and particularly relates to a method and a device for automatically washing purple urea acid.
Background
The caffeine synthesis process using cyanoacetic acid and dimethylurea as the starting materials has the advantages of simple process, high yield, good intermediate stability and the like, and becomes the main stream production process of caffeine series products. The purple urea acid is produced by ring closure and nitrosation of dimethylurea and cyanoacetic acid, is an important intermediate for producing caffeine series products, and the content and impurity level of the purple urea acid directly influence the subsequent hydrogenation reduction reaction, thereby influencing the yield and quality of the caffeine series products. How to reduce the impurity level in the reaction system before the hydrogenation reduction becomes a serious issue in improving the yield of the quality of the caffeine product.
At present, in order to reduce the influence of the purple urea acid on a nickel catalyst in a hydrogenation reduction system, water-soluble impurities in the purple urea acid are mainly washed by adopting a clear water washing mode, but organic impurities in the purple urea acid cannot be effectively removed, and researches prove that part of organic impurities in the purple urea acid can be hydrolyzed under alkaline conditions, hydrolysis products are condensed with a subsequent intermediate dimethyl-FAU to form a ring, and under the catalysis of residual nickel in the presence of light and oxygen, the hydrolysis is carried out to generate a carboxylic acid compound under the presence of subsequent alkali and acid, so that the quality of caffeine finished products is seriously influenced.
The patent (CN 101812024B) discloses a purification method of dimethylvioluric acid, specifically, alcohol, ether or ketone organic solvents are mixed with water and soluble zinc salts are added to realize the washing of the violuric acid, the content of the violuric acid can be increased to more than 90 percent from 60 percent, but the disclosed method stays in a laboratory research stage, and organic solvents such as methanol, tertiary butanol, acetone and the like used in the disclosed method can remain in caffeine, thereby causing the exceeding of organic impurities in caffeine finished products, and the introduction of halogen elements such as zinc chloride, zinc bromide and the like can also influence an impurity system, so that the method obviously has a large risk for caffeine with dual properties of medicines and foods. The washed purple urea acid still has 10 percent of impurities, and the residual impurities still affect the subsequent hydrogenation reduction reaction.
