tert-Butylbenzene - Preparation Method

Open Data Verified Data

The tert-butyl alcohol method is derived from the catalytic alkylation of tert-butyl alcohol with benzene. The benzene was cooled to 5-6 °c, aluminum trichloride was added, and a benzene solution of tert-butyl alcohol was added under stirring, and the temperature was maintained at 8-11 °c. After completion of the addition, stirring was continued for 4H. After completion of the reaction, the benzene solution was sucked out, and after the aluminum trichloride was destroyed with water, it was extracted with benzene. The benzene liquid was poured into ice water, washed with water until neutral, distilled off benzene and low boiling point matter, and 161.5~174 ℃ fraction was collected.
The isobutylene process is derived from the passing of isobutylene with benzene in the presence of aluminum trichloride.

production method 1. The tert-butanol method is derived from the alkylation of tert-butanol with benzene in the presence of aluminum trichloride. First, the mixture of benzene and aluminum trichloride was stirred and cooled to 5-6 ° C., the benzene solution of tert-butanol was slowly added, the temperature was maintained at 8-11 ° C., and the stirring was continued for 4 hours. After completion of the reaction, aluminum trichloride was destroyed with water and extracted with benzene. The benzene extract was poured into ice water, washed with water until neutral, distilled out benzene and low boiling matter, and then distilled to collect 165-174 ℃ fraction, I .e., tert-butyl benzene. The yield was more than 60%. The reaction of benzene with tert-butyl chloride in the presence of aluminum trichloride at 0-5 ° C. For 1H also yielded tert-butyl benzene in a similar yield. The isobutylene process is derived by the alkylation of isobutylene with benzene in the presence of aluminum trichloride.
The preparation method is to first cool benzene to 6 ℃, add anhydrous aluminum trichloride, and then slowly add the benzene solution of tert-butyl alcohol under stirring, and maintain the temperature at 8~11 ℃, after completion of the addition, stirring was continued for 4H. After completion of the reaction, the benzene solution was aspirated and the aluminum trichloride was destroyed with ice water. Extract with benzene, pour the benzene solution into ice water, combine the benzene solution, wash with water until neutral, distill off benzene and low boiling substance by distillation, and then continue to distill, the 165-170 °c fractions were collected to obtain the finished product. It is also possible to react isobutylene with benzene to form tert-butylbenzene. The benzene was placed in the reactor, the catalyst aluminum trichloride was added, and then the metered amount of isobutylene was introduced from the bottom of the reactor within 1~1.5h, The reaction was exothermic and cooled externally with cooling water. After completion of the reaction, add water decomposition catalyst, transfer the liquid to the container to let stand and separate layers, release the water layer, wash the organic layer with water, 5% sodium carbonate aqueous solution and water to neutral, and let stand and separate the water layer, the benzene layer is driven into the distillation kettle for distillation, the benzene/water mixture is below 80 ℃, the benzene is at 80~160 ℃, and is recycled and applied, and the tert-butylbenzene fraction is at 160~180 ℃, the residue of the bottom of the pot was polyalkylbenzene. When the feed amount is 56 parts (mass), 19 parts of the product are obtained, the recovery amount is 37 parts, and the yield is 59%.
