Introduction | tert-amyl alcohol system name 2-methyl-2-butanol, colorless transparent liquid, slightly soluble in water, with water can form an azeotropic mixture, the boiling point of 87.4 deg C, and ethanol, ether, benzene, chloroform, glycerol and other miscible. As a chemical raw material, tert-amyl alcohol is widely used in synthetic perfume, medicine and color film industries. In the mid-Seventy's, Japan's research on the synthesis of the intermediate of the tert-amyl alcohol as the raw material was successful, so that a number of high value-added extension products were available, and the deep processing of tert-amyl alcohol was pushed to a new height. |
Use | used as raw materials for the synthesis of spices and pesticides, and also an excellent solvent mainly used for the production of new pesticides, and can be used for the synthesis of indane Musk, as well as color couplers for color films. Production of tert-amyl alcohol intermediate methyl butynol is also useful pharmaceutical intermediates and terpene perfume intermediates, and used in the manufacture of acid etching inhibitor, viscosity stabilizer, viscosity reducer, and used in the manufacture of nickel plating, copper plating polishing agent, chlorinated hydrocarbon stabilizer, etc. |
production method | (1) acetone and acetylene are used as raw materials, which are obtained by alkynylation and hydrogenation. Acetylene is dissolved in liquid ammonia, mixed with acetone and catalyst, and then sent to the alkynylation reactor. The reaction solution is flash evaporated to separate unreacted acetylene and ammonia, and the unreacted acetone is distilled off, the obtained methyl butynol enters the hydrogenation reactor for reaction to generate tert-amyl alcohol, and the product is obtained by dehydration and purification. (2) it is formed by adding water to isopentene. (3) obtained by fractional distillation of a mixed alcohol formed by chlorination and hydrolysis of pentane. The raw material pentane was dehydrated with anhydrous hydrogen chloride, evaporated and mixed with chlorine gas into the reactor, and the reaction temperature was 250-300 °c. The reaction product was separated by four distillation columns to obtain chloropentane. In the hydrolyzer, sodium oleate is used as catalyst, and the chloropentane is hydrolyzed with sodium hydroxide aqueous solution. The pentanol containing 59% primary alcohol, 36% secondary alcohol and 5% tertiary alcohol can be obtained by separating and distilling crude pentanol from water. Using acetone and acetylene as raw materials, the purity of the product was 99%. Raw material consumption quota: acetone 1040kg/t, calcium carbide 1500kg/t, hydrogen (99.5%)650, liquid ammonia 135kg/t, potassium carbonate 340kg/t. |
