Synthesis method

Some foreign companies use butyraldehyde as raw material and obtain 2-ethylhexenal through condensation and dehydration.

1.-Ethylhexanol oxidation method: It is prepared by oxidizing 2-ethylhexanol in an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution with potassium permanganate to form sodium isooctanoate, and then neutralizing it with sulfuric acid. Raw material consumption quota: 2-ethylhexanol 1204kg/t, potassium permanganate 3611kg/t, liquid caustic soda approximately 1500kg/t, sulfuric acid approximately 960kg/t.

2.-Ethylhexene The aldehyde oxidation method uses 2-ethylhexenal, an intermediate product of propylene carbonylation to produce 2-ethylhexanol, as raw material, 2-ethylhexenal is produced through selective hydrogenation, and then 2-ethylhexenal is produced through liquid phase oxidation. Hexanol. 3. Catalytic dehydrogenation esterification method of 2-ethylhexanol. Under alkaline conditions, using cadmium oxide, zinc oxide, and manganese dioxide as catalysts, 2-ethylhexanol is dehydrogenated to 2-ethylhexanol at 180-210°C. Acid ester (isooctanoate), isooctanoate is saponified to generate the corresponding salt and alcohol. After the salt is acidified with sulfuric acid, it is then distilled to obtain the finished product of isooctanoic acid.

3. Tobacco: OR, 18 ; BU, 26; FC, 40.

4. Preparation method:

Add 100mL of water and 2.0kg of sodium hydroxide into the reaction kettle, stir and dissolve. Add 5.0kg (38.5mol) of isooctyl alcohol (2) under constant stirring. Control the reaction temperature to 20°C and add 16.0kg (95mol) of potassium permanganate in batches. Raise the temperature to 40-50°C and stir for 4 hours until the purple-red color of potassium permanganate disappears. Filter and wash the filter cake with hot water. Concentrate under reduced pressure to 1/2 of the original volume. The filtrate was adjusted to pH 1-2 with dilute sulfuric acid. Separate the oil layer, distill under reduced pressure, and collect the 110~130℃/2.66kPa fraction. Obtain isooctanoic acid (1) 4.4kg, with a yield of 79%. Note: ① It can also be prepared by nitric acid oxidation of isooctyl alcohol, with a yield of 35%. [1]

Purpose

Most of 2-ethylhexanoic acid is converted into salts of metal zirconium, cobalt, molybdenum, zinc, etc., which are used as paint driers and heat stabilizers for polyvinyl chloride plastics; tin salts are used as additives for plastic pipes; barium Salt and cadmium salt are used in plastic calendered products and stabilizers. 2-ethylhexanoic acid and its esters are also used in medicine, fungicides, metal lubricants, cosmetics, etc. Its glyceride is an excellent plasticizer. 2-Ethylhexanoic acid is the raw material of the pharmaceutical carbenicillin. It is also used in the synthesis of many dyes and spices.
