Abstract

The invention relates to a process for preparing gamma-valerolactone by utilizing an iridium-pincer ligand complex catalyst, particularly to the process for preparing the gamma-valerolactone by catalyzing levulinic acid for hydrogenation reduction and and lactonization. The process for preparing the gamma-valerolactone by utilizing the iridium-pincer ligand complex catalyst is characterized in that 1-5 MPa hydrogen is used as a reducing agent at a temperature between 50 DEG C and 100 DEG C, the gamma-valerolactone is prepared by catalyzing the levulinic acid for hydrogenation reduction and lactonization under the action of iridium catalyst which accounts for 0.01 to 0.1 mol% of quantity of levulinic acid. The process for preparing the gamma-valerolactone by utilizing the iridium-pincer ligand complex catalyst eliminates the disadvantage that a high temperature and high pressure reaction condition is required for gamma-valerolactone production so that economy and security of the production system are improved. Dosage of the catalyst is small, productivity is high and selectivity is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing gamma-valerolactone with an iridium-pincer ligand complex catalyst, specifically using an iridium-pincer ligand complex catalyst to catalyze the hydrogenation reduction reaction of levulinic acid and lactone A method for preparing gamma-valerolactone by chemical reaction. Background technique [0002] At present, the energy and chemicals needed for the survival and development of human society mainly come from traditional fossil raw materials, such as coal, oil, and natural gas. Coal can still be exploited for 100 years, oil for 30-40 years, and natural gas for 50-60 years With the gradual consumption of these fossil raw materials, people began to look for new alternative resources. Among many renewable resources such as wind energy, solar energy, and tides, biomass can be used not only as an energy source, but also as a source of organic carbon to produce chemicals and materials, so it is considered to ...
