Abstract

The invention relates to a continuous reaction technological method for preparing epsilon-caprolactone, and microchannel reaction equipment, belonging to the technical field of organic synthesis. The method takes cyclohexanone as initial reaction raw material and peracetic acid generated in the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and acetic anhydride as an oxidizing agent, and the processes such as peroxy acid preparation, cyclohexanone oxidation and the like are continuously completed in a microchannel reactor system. The continuous reaction technological method effectively controls the temperature in the reaction process, is high in safety, does not need an additional solvent, catalyst and stabilizing agent, is beneficial to separation and purification of caprolactone, and enables the high-yield continuous production of the epsilon-caprolactone to be possible; the microchannel reaction equipment provided by the invention highly meets the requirements of the reaction technology. The conversion rate of the cyclohexanone reaches 50-95%, and the selectivity of the epsilon-caprolactone is 80-100%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis technology, and specifically relates to a continuous reaction process method for preparing ε-caprolactone by oxidation of cyclohexanone as a raw material, and its corresponding process equipment technology. More specifically, it is a continuous reaction process for preparing ε-caprolactone from hydrogen peroxide and acetic anhydride to synthesize peracetic acid in a microchannel reactor, and then oxidizing cyclohexanone with peracetic acid, and the corresponding equipment technology. [0002] technical background [0003] ε-caprolactone is an important organic synthesis intermediate, widely used as a synthetic monomer for new polyester materials to modify various resins to improve their gloss, transparency and anti-sticking properties. Polycaprolactone and its copolymer obtained by copolymerizing it as a monomer are a kind of fully biodegradable polymer materials with good biocompatib...
