Problems solved by technology

[0008] Catalytic hydrogenation of furfural combined with alcoholysis: There are few studies on the direct preparation of methyl levulinate from furfural, only HuX et al. (Hu X, Song Y, Wu L. One-pot synthesis of levulinic acid / ester from C5carbohydrates in a methanol medium .ACS Sustainable Chemistry&Engineering.2013,1(12):1593-1599.) Starting from furfural, in Pt / Al 2 o 3 and Amberlyst-70 catalyzed, H 2 Under the conditions, the yield of methyl levulinate prepared by one-pot method is up to 23%. The reaction has the problems of consuming high-energy-density clean hydrogen and low yield of methyl levulinate, which is difficult to industrialize

Abstract

The invention discloses a one-pot method for preparing methyl levulinate by catalyzing furfural through a Zr-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve in a near-critical methanol medium. The method comprises the following steps: (1) adding furfural and methanol into a high-temperature and high-pressure reaction kettle with a stirring function, and adding the Zr-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve, wherein the Si / Zr molar ratio of the Zr-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve is 5-100; (2) stirring, heating to 200-280 DEG C, and carrying out one-pot method reaction for 1-16 hours; and (3) after the reaction, cooling to the room temperature, filtering, distilling filtrate to obtain a methyl levulinate product, recycling methanol for later use, collecting filter residues, namely the Zr-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve, washing with methanol, and drying and roasting for later use. The one-pot method has the beneficial effects that the process is simple, the process is environmentally friendly, and the cost is low and further has a good industrial production prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing methyl levulinate from furfural, in particular to a method for preparing methyl levulinate in a near-critical methanol medium by Zr-SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieves catalyzing furfural in one pot. Background technique [0002] Biomass is an important class of renewable resources. The preparation of chemicals or fuels from biomass resources has become an important way for countries to solve the energy crisis. Among them, lignocellulose-based biomass is widely used due to its large output and wide distribution. focus on. [0003] Methyl levulinate (molecular formula: C 6 h 10 o 3 , CAS No.: 624-45-3,) is a class of short-chain fatty acid esters, an important class of organic chemicals, can be directly used as spices, food additives, gasoline additives and biological liquid fuels, etc., its structural formula is as follows As shown in the figure. [0004] [0005] There are three main ways to prepa...
