Application | 3-methyl-2-butenal, or isopentenal, is a colorless liquid. 3-methyl-2-butenal can be used as a raw material of perfume, and isopentenal can also be used for the production of citral, isoplant alcohols (VE main intermediate), and the synthesis of vitamin A, carotenoid intermediates, rubber monomer, etc. |
preparation | 0.1g silver acetate and 100g DT020 resin are mixed into the first-stage reactor, 100g of DT020 resin was then mixed into the second reactor. 100g of methyl butynol was mixed with 2000g of ethylene glycol and fed into the packed column of the first-stage reactor at a rate of 70g/min (total residence time in the two-stage reactor was 30min), from the bottom, 0.3mpag of carbon dioxide was introduced, and the temperature of the first reactor was 30 ° C. To synthesize isopentenal and further obtain an acetal intermediate. The reaction solution came out from the bottom of the first stage reactor and then entered the packing column of the second stage reactor. The temperature of the second stage reactor was 140 ° C., and the deprotection reaction took place to obtain isopentenal. At the top of the second column, 100.3g of 3-methyl-2-butenal was recovered, and the purity was 98.7% by gas chromatography. At the bottom of the column, ethylene glycol was recovered, and the reaction yield was 98.99%. |
