Production method | 1. Acetylene-acetone method Acetylene and acetone are condensed with potassium hydroxide in benzene solvent, then acidified with hydrochloric acid and hydrogenated. 2. Methylbutynyl alcohol-acetone condensation method. the industrial production of 2, 5-dimethyl-2, 5-hexanediol mostly uses acetylene and acetone as raw materials. in the past, the atmospheric alkynylation method was widely used. the process route was three steps of atmospheric alkynylation, hydrolysis and hydrogenation. Acetylene and acetone are acetylated with excess potassium hydroxide in a solvent under normal pressure to generate 2,5-dimethyl -3-hexyne -2,5-diol potassium, and then hydrolyzed under acidic conditions to generate 2,5-dimethyl -3-hexyne -2,5-diol, and finally using Raney nickel as a catalyst, catalytic hydrogenation under 2~2.5 MPa pressure to obtain the product. The normal pressure alkynylation technology is more mature, but for the gas-liquid phase alkynylation reaction, the production efficiency of the normal pressure operation is low from the kinetic point of view, and can only be carried out intermittently. In addition, the consumption of potassium hydroxide is large, and it is inconvenient to recycle, and the equipment is severely corroded, and the operation is troublesome. 2,5-dimethyl -2,5-hexanediol was prepared by the pressurized alkynylation method developed by Southwest Research Institute of Chemical Industry in China. The process is three steps of pressurized alkynylation, condensation and hydrogenation. Acetylene and acetone are reacted at a temperature of 35~40 ℃ under a pressure of 18~20 kgf/cm2(1kgf/cm2 = 98.0665kPa) in an autoclave to generate 2-methyl -3-butyyne -2-alcohol, then 2,5-dimethyl -3-hexyne -2,5-diol was synthesized by condensation with acetone at 30~50 ℃, and finally the product was obtained by catalytic hydrogenation at 30~80 ℃ with Lanini nickel as catalyst at 10kgf/cm2 pressure. Pressurized alkynylation method can be continuously produced with high production efficiency, while the consumption of potassium hydroxide is only 1/6~1/4 of that of atmospheric alkynylation method, and the alcohol hydrolyzed with alcohol is correspondingly reduced, and the corrosion of equipment is reduced. Yangzhou Chemical Plant adopts this method to produce. |
