production method | 1. tetrahydrofurfural is used as raw material and obtained by catalytic hydrogenation. The hydrogenation operation is carried out under high temperature and high pressure. The reaction temperature is 300-310 ℃, and the pressure is 22-42MPa. Due to certain difficulties in industrialization, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol can be first made into dihydropyran, and then dihydropyran is hydrated to produce 5-hydroxypentanaldehyde, and then 1, 5-pentanediol is obtained by catalytic hydrogenation. Add dihydropyran, water and a small amount of hydrochloric acid into the hydration kettle, react at 50 ℃ for 30-40min, neutralize the reaction solution with sodium hydroxide solution, then perform distillation, first remove water, and then collect the 60-64 ℃(0.4kPa) fraction to obtain 5-hydroxyvaleraldehyde, add it to the autoclave, and hydrogenate at 120-150 ℃ and about 6 MPa under the action of nickel catalyst. After the reaction is over, distillation under reduced pressure, collect the 119-120°C (0.4kPa) fraction, which is the finished product. 2. Epoxypentenal is obtained by photooxidation of cyclopentadiene, and then by catalytic hydrogenation at 70-100 ℃ and about 7MPa pressure. |
