The invention discloses a method for producing high-purity 1-aminoanthraquinone through
catalytic hydrogenation. The method has the advantages of simple equipment,
safe operation, low production cost and no
pollution. The method comprises the following steps of: preforming hydrogenation on 1-nitroanthraquinone and a
solvent in the presence of a catalyst in a reactor, filtering off the catalyst, stirring or standing a reducing solution in an oxidant, and obtaining 1-aminoanthraquinone through oxidation of a small amount of perhydrogenation product in the reducing solution to promote solution oversaturation to realize homogeneous
crystallization, so that the high-purity 1-aminoanthraquinone is obtained; and continuously applying a motor solution of which crystals are filtered off, and the catalyst mechanically, and after multiple mechanical application, adding a
diluent into the reducing solution to obtain 1-aminoanthraquinone crystals, wherein in the
catalytic hydrogenation reaction, a weight ratio of the
solvent to the 1-nitroanthraquinone is (1.0-10.0):1, and the
reaction temperature ranges from normal temperature to 120DEG C. The purity of the obtained 1-aminoanthraquinone is over 99 percent, the total yield in the process is over 98 percent, and in the production process, the consumption of the
solvent is low, three-waste emission is avoided, and the production process is clean.
