preparation | a continuous preparation method of N,N-dimethylaniline, using Solid acid SO42-/ZrO2 as Catalyst, the gas phase catalytic reaction of methanol and aniline was carried out in a tubular reactor, and the obtained reaction product was separated by distillation to obtain N,N-dimethylaniline. The specific steps of the method are as follows:(1) Adding solid acid SO42-/ZrO2 catalyst into the tubular reactor, heating and vaporizing the raw material aniline and methanol, and then continuously passing into the tubular reactor, the mixed gas generated by the gas phase catalytic reaction is condensed to obtain the crude product of N,N-dimethylaniline;(2) the N, the crude product of N-dimethylaniline is separated by vacuum distillation in a side-line rectification column. The side-line output of the side-line rectification column is N,N-dimethylaniline with content ≥ 99.1wt%, and methanol aqueous solution is obtained at the top of the side-line rectification column, the bottom discharge of the side-line distillation column is a mixed liquid containing N,N-dimethylaniline;(3) the methanol aqueous solution obtained at the top of the side-line distillation column is added to the distillation column and separated by distillation, methanol obtained at the top of the rectification column was recycled as a raw material. |
