Production method and production system of beta-isophorone
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of fine chemical engineering, in particular to a production method and a production system of beta-isophorone.
Background
Beta-isophorone is an important chemical intermediate and is widely used for preparing carotenoid, vitamin E and perfume. The prior art beta-isophorone is prepared from alpha-isophorone by a thermal isomerization reaction. Since α -isophorone has conjugated carbon-carbon double bonds and carbon-oxygen double bonds, thermodynamic equilibrium tends to be more toward α -isophorone. To prepare the beta-isophorone, only a small amount of beta-isophorone in a thermal isomerism balance system can be separated through high-efficiency rectification, so that balance is promoted to move towards the direction of forming the beta-isophorone, and the beta-isophorone meeting the quality requirement is finally obtained while the beta-isophorone is separated during thermal isomerism. This has the problems of high temperature, low yield, long time and high energy consumption for preparing the beta-isophorone.
Chinese patent CN1259299C discloses a synthesis method of beta-isophorone, which takes alpha-isophorone as a raw material, and under the condition that a catalyst and a separating agent for reaction are acid ceramic materials, isomerization reaction is carried out in a multi-stage reactor, and reaction rectification technology is adopted for reaction, so that beta-isophorone is obtained. In the method, the separation section is also made of an acidic ceramic material, so that the beta-isophorone is promoted to be formed into alpha-isophorone, the production efficiency is low, and meanwhile, the acidic ceramic material is filled in the reactor and is easy to flow out to enter the tower kettle of the rectifying tower to cause side reaction.
Chinese patent CN104649878B discloses a process for continuously synthesizing β -isophorone, which uses α -isophorone as a starting material, uses molecular sieve as a catalyst, adopts a reactive distillation technique to perform isomerization reaction in a reactor at a tower bottom, and collects β -isophorone at the top of the reactor at the tower bottom. The method has low yield, and the catalyst is in long-term contact with the reaction liquid, so that side reactions are easy to cause.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, the invention provides a production method of beta-isophorone with few byproducts and high yield.
The second object of the present invention is to provide a production system of beta-isophorone with few byproducts and high yield.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
The production method of the beta-isophorone comprises the steps of taking alpha-isophorone as a starting material, carrying out isomerization reaction in a production system under the action of a catalyst to generate the beta-isophorone, wherein the production system comprises a heater, a gas-liquid separator, a packed column and a rectifying tower which are sequentially arranged and used for heating and vaporizing the alpha-isophorone;
The catalyst is filled in the packed column;
the production method comprises the steps of heating and vaporizing alpha-isophorone through the heater, then enabling the alpha-isophorone to enter the gas-liquid separator for gas-liquid separation to obtain a gas material, enabling the gas material to enter the packed column, catalyzing the gas material through the catalyst, and then enabling the gas material to enter the rectifying tower for separation to obtain beta-isophorone.
The catalyst is filled in the filling column, the filling column and the rectifying tower are arranged independently, the reaction starting material is heated and gasified to obtain a gas material, and the gas material is catalyzed and then enters the rectifying tower to be separated to obtain the beta-isophorone. According to the method, in the first aspect, the liquid-solid phase reaction for thermally isomerizing the alpha-isophorone to the beta-isophorone is converted into the gas-solid phase catalytic reaction, so that the scouring of liquid to the catalyst is avoided, the loss of the catalyst is reduced, the accumulation of the catalyst in the liquid phase is avoided, and the side reaction is avoided, in the second aspect, heavy components in the reaction liquid can directly flow into the tower kettle of the rectifying tower from the liquid phase outlet of the gas-liquid separator, the content of the heavy components in the gas material obtained by separation of the gas-liquid separator is extremely low, the heavy components cannot be adsorbed on a carrier of the catalyst and cover the surface of the active components to cause deactivation, the service life of the catalyst can be prolonged, and in the third aspect, the byproducts possibly formed by promoting the self polymerization of the alpha-isophorone or the beta-isophorone due to the loss of the catalyst entering the reaction liquid are reduced. The catalyst can only accelerate the thermal isomerization of alpha-isophorone to beta-isophorone and reach the speed of equilibrium composition, but does not influence the equilibrium composition. If the catalyst is lost to the rectifying tower or is further carried into the beta-isophorone product, the catalyst can catalyze the conversion of beta-isophorone to alpha-isophorone after the temperature is reduced, and the quality of the final product is affected. The gas-solid phase reaction mode can well solve the problem and improve the stability of the final product.
In some embodiments, the production method further comprises feeding the liquid material separated by the gas-liquid separator into a bottom of the rectifying tower.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the production method further comprises feeding the starting raw material into a tower kettle of the rectifying tower for heating, and then conveying materials in the tower kettle of the rectifying tower to the heater for heating and gasifying;
or/and, the production method further comprises the step of directly conveying the starting raw materials to the heater for heating and gasifying.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the catalyst is a supported p-toluenesulfonate catalyst.
The supported p-toluenesulfonate catalyst is used as a catalyst for preparing beta-isophorone through thermal isomerization reaction. The p-toluenesulfonate anions have strong nucleophilicity, and can rapidly attack 1 # carbonium positive ions of alpha-isophorone to promote electron rearrangement. P-toluenesulfonate is also a strong leaving group, readily leaving from 1 # carbonium ion to form β -isophorone. So that the p-toluenesulfonate is used as a catalyst for thermally isomerizing alpha-isophorone to beta-isophorone, and the thermal isomerization reaction can be quickly promoted to reach equilibrium. The ratio of alpha-isophorone and beta-isophorone in the equilibrium state is directly related to the temperature of the thermal isomerization reaction, and the higher the temperature of the thermal isomerization reaction is, the larger the ratio of beta-isophorone is, and the lower the temperature of the thermal isomerization reaction is, the smaller the ratio of beta-isophorone is. Compared with the prior art, the application adopts the supported p-toluenesulfonate catalyst to accelerate the speed of thermal isomerization reaction, so that the alpha-isophorone and beta-isophorone can reach balance rapidly.
When the technical scheme of the application is implemented, the aim of improving the conversion efficiency can also be achieved by directly mixing the p-toluenesulfonate with the raw material alpha-isophorone. The application adopts the supported p-toluenesulfonate as the catalyst, and can conveniently separate the p-toluenesulfonate from the final reaction liquid. On the one hand, the catalyst can be recycled, the cost and the solid waste amount of the catalyst prepared repeatedly are reduced, and on the other hand, the adverse effect on the stability of beta-isophorone or alpha-isophorone under the high temperature of strong acid and strong alkali salt is reduced. Preferably, the carrier of the supported p-toluenesulfonate catalyst is one or a combination of a plurality of zeolite and molecular sieve. The zeolite or molecular sieve is used as carrier and has the advantages of large particle size, strong adsorption capacity and convenient separation. The prior art also reports that solid acid can be used as a catalyst for isomerization reaction, but has the problems of more byproduct generation and serious corrosion. The zeolite and the molecular sieve have weak acidity and can catalyze the isomerization reaction of the application, but have the problems of weak catalysis effect and low production efficiency. According to the application, the p-toluenesulfonate is loaded on the molecular sieve or zeolite, and the p-toluenesulfonate microcrystals are uniformly dispersed on the surface of the molecular sieve or zeolite and in the micro-channels, so that the contact point of the p-toluenesulfonate and the alpha-isophorone is improved. The molecular sieve or zeolite provides an acidic activation center, and the p-toluenesulfonate provides a nucleophilic group, so that the aim of synergistic catalytic isomerization reaction is fulfilled.
The p-toluenesulfonate is an alkali metal salt or alkaline earth metal salt of p-toluenesulfonate, preferably, the p-toluenesulfonate is one or a combination of more of sodium p-toluenesulfonate and potassium p-toluenesulfonate. Sodium p-toluenesulfonate and potassium p-toluenesulfonate belong to strong alkali strong acid salts, and aqueous solutions at room temperature are neutral. As a catalyst for thermal isomerization reaction, the adverse effects of strong acidity and strong alkalinity on the stability of alpha-isophorone or beta-isophorone can be reduced to the maximum extent.
Preferably, the loading of the p-toluenesulfonate in the supported p-toluenesulfonate catalyst is 0.1-1.0wt%. The more the p-toluenesulfonate is loaded, the more the p-toluenesulfonate adsorbed in the inner pore canal of the carrier is, the less the p-toluenesulfonate is easy to fall off, the longer the service life of the catalyst is, but the catalytic activity is reduced, on the contrary, the more the p-toluenesulfonate is loaded, the more the p-toluenesulfonate adsorbed on the surface of the carrier is easy to fall off, the shorter the service life of the catalyst is, but the catalytic activity of the initial catalyst is strong. In practical applications, it is necessary to avoid the loss of the p-toluenesulfonate adsorbed on the carrier to the reaction liquid as much as possible, otherwise the reaction liquid is in contact with the p-toluenesulfonate in a free state for a long time to easily form polymerization byproducts. The loading of the p-toluenesulfonate in the catalyst is controlled to be 0.1-1.0wt%, so that the loss of active ingredients can be reduced on the premise of keeping the catalyst to have optimal catalytic activity.
The preparation method of the catalyst has great influence on the catalytic activity of the catalyst, and the inventor determines the optimal preparation method of the catalyst through a large number of comparison experiments, and preferably, the supported p-toluenesulfonate catalyst is prepared by immersing a carrier in a p-toluenesulfonate aqueous solution, adsorbing and saturating, filtering and drying.
Further preferably, the drying is performed at 100-140 ℃. The preparation method of the catalyst is simple and convenient, raw materials are easy to obtain, but the catalyst has strong catalytic activity, and the catalyst can be replaced in time when the activity of the catalyst is insufficient.
In order to further improve the technical effect, preferably, the theoretical plate number of the rectifying tower is 30-60. The design of the rectifying tower is critical, and the chemical reaction and the rectifying separation are combined by reactive rectification. To design a production system with excellent performance, it is first necessary to determine whether the control process of the whole production system belongs to reaction control or rectification control. When the method belongs to the reaction control, the adjustment of the catalyst and the reaction parameters can rapidly influence the performance of the whole production system, and when the method belongs to the rectification control, the adjustment of the catalyst and the reaction parameters can not rapidly influence the performance of the whole production system. In view of the fact that the high-efficiency supported p-toluenesulfonate is used as a catalyst for thermal isomerization reaction, when the theoretical plate number of the rectifying tower is 30-60, a production system can be artificially designed into a reaction control state.
In some embodiments, the reflux ratio of the top of the rectifying tower is controlled to be 4-8:1.
Preferably, the temperature of the tower bottom of the rectifying tower is controlled to be 200-250 ℃, the pressure in the rectifying tower is controlled to be 0.05-0.15 MPaA (absolute pressure), and more preferably, the temperature of the tower bottom of the rectifying tower is controlled to be the reflux temperature of reaction materials, specifically 220-230 ℃, and the pressure in the rectifying tower is controlled to be normal pressure. And heating the reaction liquid in the tower kettle of the rectifying tower to a reflux temperature of about 220-230 ℃, wherein the equilibrium concentration of beta-isophorone in the reaction liquid is about 2.5-3.5wt%. The catalyst can accelerate the time for reaching the equilibrium state and reduce the formation of byproducts at high temperature. And separating the beta-isophorone from the reaction liquid by rapid rectification, and collecting to obtain the beta-isophorone, wherein the p-toluenesulfonate is loaded on a carrier and does not enter the tower bottom of the rectifying tower. The vaporization amount in the reactive rectifying tower is controlled, and the p-toluenesulfonate and other active substances are further ensured not to enter the beta-isophorone finished product, so that the beta-isophorone finished product with stable quality is prepared.

In order to make the whole production system operate more stably, the balance of flow and pressure is needed. Preferably, the second connecting pipe is provided with a second delivery pump and a regulating valve, and the regulating valve is positioned at the downstream of the second delivery pump. When the gas-liquid separator has enough height difference relative to the rectifying tower kettle, the second conveying pump is not required, and the liquid phase can automatically enter the rectifying tower kettle through the liquid level difference. However, the provision of the second transfer pump can improve the stability of the overall system. The liquid level signal of the gas-liquid separator is transmitted to an automatic control system to finally control the opening degree of a regulating valve to control the liquid level in the gas-liquid separator at a proper position, so that the quantity of liquid phases in the gas-liquid separator is reduced as much as possible under the premise of ensuring the stable liquid phase discharging.
