Embodiment 1

[0017] According to the molar ratio of triethylamine to formaldehyde of 0.020, add 37wt% formaldehyde aqueous solution and triethylamine into the three-necked flask successively, stir and mix evenly, heat the water bath to 30°C, and then mix to the above-mentioned Add n-butyraldehyde (the molar ratio of formaldehyde to n-butyraldehyde is 2.2) dropwise into the solution, and the dropwise addition is completed within 1 hour. After the dropwise addition, continue to react at 30° C. for 2 hours, and stand to separate layers. The lower water phase is DMB, and the upper oil phase is mainly EA and butyraldehyde.

[0018] Subsequently, the upper oil phase was separated, and it was measured that the content of EA in the upper oil phase was 70%, and the content of butyraldehyde was 25%. After adding formaldehyde with 2 times the molar amount of EA therein, the pH value was adjusted to 10.0 with triethylamine, and the temperature was raised to 50° C. to continue the reaction for 5 hours....

Embodiment 2

[0020] According to the molar ratio of triethylamine to formaldehyde of 0.020, add 37wt% formaldehyde aqueous solution and triethylamine into the three-necked flask successively, stir and mix evenly, heat the water bath to 40°C, and then mix to the above-mentioned Add n-butyraldehyde (the molar ratio of formaldehyde to n-butyraldehyde is 2.2) dropwise into the solution, and the dropwise addition is completed within 1 hour. After the dropwise addition, continue to react at 30° C. for 2 hours, and stand to separate layers.

[0021] Subsequently, the upper oil phase was separated, and the content of EA and butyraldehyde was measured to be 82% and 11% respectively. After adding formaldehyde with 3 times the molar amount of EA therein, the pH value was adjusted to 10.5 with triethylamine, and the temperature was raised to 50° C. to continue the reaction for 5 hours. The selectivity is 90%.

Embodiment 3

[0023] According to the molar ratio of triethylamine to formaldehyde of 0.020, add 37wt% formaldehyde aqueous solution and triethylamine into the three-necked flask successively, stir and mix evenly, heat the water bath to 50°C, and then, under the condition of stirring, mix to the above-mentioned Add n-butyraldehyde (the molar ratio of formaldehyde to n-butyraldehyde is 3.0) dropwise to the solution, and the dropwise addition is completed within 1 hour. After the dropwise addition, continue to react at 50° C. for 2 hours, and stand to separate layers.

[0024] Subsequently, the upper oil phase was separated, and the content of EA and butyraldehyde was determined to be 90% and 6%, respectively. After adding formaldehyde with 4 times the molar amount of EA therein, adjust the pH value to 11 with triethylamine, and react at 50° C. for 5 h at the same time. After the reaction, the conversion rate of EA is measured to be 95%, and the selectivity of TMP generated is 93%.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recycling a by-product 2-ethylacraldehyde from a reaction process of preparing trimethylolpropane by a condensing and hydrogenating method. The method comprises the following steps of: taking the main by-product 2-ethylacraldehyde (EA) generated at a condensation stage of aldol in trimethylolpropane prepared by condensing and hydrogenating method as the raw material; separating and reacting the raw material with formaldehyde under the alkaline condition; and finally, obtaining trimethylolpropane (TMP). According to the invention, more than 90% of the EA can be basically transformed and the selectivity of the generated TMP is more than 90%; the method improves the economic utilization of the raw material and the reaction cost is reduced as well. The method provided by the invention also can directly utilize the commercial grade EA and formaldehyde to react under the alkaline condition so that the EA can be transformed into TMP.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a recovery and utilization method of by-product 2-ethylacrolein in the reaction process of preparing trimethylolpropane by condensation hydrogenation method, in particular to a method for the recovery and utilization of by-product 2-ethylacrolein in the reaction process of preparation of trimethylolpropane by condensation hydrogenation method The by-product 2-ethylacrolein is recovered for use in the process for the preparation of trimethylolpropane. Background technique [0002] Trimethylolpropane (TMP) is an important fine chemical product with a low melting point (58.8°C) and three methylol groups in its molecular structure, which can react with organic acids to form monoesters or polyesters , react with aldehydes and ketones to form acetals and ketals, and react with diisocyanates to form carbamates, etc. It is widely used in the production of aviation lubricants, plasticizers, surfactants, alkyd resins, polyuretha...
