Problems solved by technology

The literature shows that complex catalysts such as ruthenium, nickel, cobalt, etc. are also active to CO / CH3OH / ethylene for carbonylation of methyl propionate [R.F.Heck, J.A.m. Chem. Soc.1963,85; W .Keim.J.Mol.Catal.,1989,54(1)], but these catalytic systems have the disadvantages of harsh reaction conditions, low conversion rate, poor selectivity, etc., basically no commercial application prospects

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing methyl propionate by ethylene. The methyl propionate is prepared from the materials: ethylene, methanol, carbon monoxide and water under existence of a catalyst in a carbonyl combination manner; and the adopted catalyst is a composite catalyst system taking palladium acetate as a main catalyst, and metal ions such as cobalt, nickel or ruthenium and the like as a promoter. The method disclosed by the invention has good catalytic activity and selectivity at a low temperature and low pressure; the composite catalyst system has the advantages of low consumption, good selectivity, long service life and the like; carbonyl synthesis of the methyl propionate from the ethylene can be efficiently catalyzed; the reaction result is based on the ethylene; the yield of the methyl propionate is greater than 95%; and the entire method has good commercial value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of ethylene oxo synthesis organic chemical products, in particular to a method for ethylene oxo synthesis of methyl propionate. Background technique [0002] Methyl propionate is a colorless and transparent organic liquid, which is widely used as a solvent for high-grade food and cosmetics, and can also be used as an excellent additive, preservative or fragrance in some foods and feeds. Methyl propionate can produce propionate, propionic acid, propionate (benzyl propionate, isopentyl propionate, etc.) and other products through saponification reaction, hydrolysis reaction and transesterification reaction, so methyl propionate The development of synthetic process is conducive to the progress and development of propionic acid, propionate, propionate and other process technologies. [0003] Oxo-synthesis of methyl propionate has long attracted the attention of academic circles. In the 1930s, Reppe in Germany proposed th...
