The invention relates to a method for producing sec-
butyl acetate by synthesizing
acetic acid and mixed C4, which belongs to the chemical field. The invention aims to provide the method for producing the sec-
butyl acetate by synthesizing the
acetic acid and the mixed C4, which is used for fully and reasonably utilizing byproduct mixed C4 resources of
petrochemical enterprises, broadening the way to comprehensively utilize C4
hydrocarbon, and producing
fine chemical products with high added value. According to the invention, a kettle type
batch reactor is adopted, strong-acid cation exchange resin is adopted as
solid catalyst, the
acetic acid and the mixed C4 are used as the raw materials to synthesize the sec-
butyl acetate, the reaction pressure is 2.0-6.0MPa, the
reaction temperature is 80-160 DEG C, the reaction time is 5-15h, the
molar ratio of olefine acid is 0.2-1.5, and the catalyst amount is 4-12 percent of the acetic acid. According to the synthetic process of the sec-butyl acetate, the acetic acid and
butane (
refinery byproduct mixed C4 contains 1-
butane and 2-
butane) are adopted as the raw materials to be directly synthesized through
addition reaction under the action of acid catalysts, an olefin resource is directly utilized, and
ethanol is unnecessary to be an intermediate, so that the production cost of the sec-butyl acetate is reduced, the obvious
economic advantage is achieved, the
refinery mixed C4 resource is effectively utilized, and the method is an effective way to improve chemical utilization of C4
hydrocarbon.
