Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、β−ピコリンの製造方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
トリアリルアミンからβ−ピコリンを製造する方法としては、例えばHelvetica Chimica Acta, Vol.57, 17-23(1974) に記載されている方法が知られている。この方法は、トリアリルアミンをトリメチルベンゼン、シクロヘキサン等の希釈剤と混合し、気相中で熱分解する方法である。
【0003】
しかしながら、この方法では、目的とするβ−ピコリンの収率が3〜55%程度と低い。また、この方法では、希釈剤として使用されるトリメチルベンゼン、シクロヘキサン等の有機溶剤を、熱分解終了後にβ−ピコリンと分離する必要がある。そのため、上記方法は、β−ピコリンの工業的製造法として不適当である。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、目的とするβ−ピコリンを高収率で製造し得る方法を提供することを課題とする。
【0005】
本発明は、トリメチルベンゼン、シクロヘキサン等の有機溶剤を希釈剤として使用する必要がなく、そのため反応終了後に希釈剤とβ−ピコリンとを分離する工程を必要としないβ−ピコリンの製造方法を提供することを課題とする。
【0006】
本発明は、β−ピコリンの工業的に有利な製造法を提供することを課題とする。

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method for producing β-picoline.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As a method for producing β-picoline from triallylamine, for example, a method described in Helvetica Chimica Acta, Vol. 57, 17-23 (1974) is known. In this method, triallylamine is mixed with a diluent such as trimethylbenzene or cyclohexane and thermally decomposed in a gas phase.
[0003]
However, in this method, the yield of target β-picoline is as low as about 3 to 55%. Further, in this method, it is necessary to separate an organic solvent such as trimethylbenzene or cyclohexane used as a diluent from β-picoline after completion of thermal decomposition. Therefore, the above method is unsuitable as an industrial production method of β-picoline.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to provide a method capable of producing a target β-picoline in a high yield.
[0005]
The present invention provides a method for producing β-picoline that does not require the use of an organic solvent such as trimethylbenzene or cyclohexane as a diluent, and therefore does not require a step of separating the diluent and β-picoline after the reaction is completed. This is the issue.
[0006]
An object of the present invention is to provide an industrially advantageous process for producing β-picoline.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The inventor has conducted various studies in order to solve the above problems. As a result, it has been found that the above-mentioned problems can be solved by bringing gaseous triallylamine into contact with a solid catalyst having dehydrogenation ability. The present invention has been completed based on such findings.
[0008]
That is, the present invention relates to a method for producing β-picoline, characterized in that β-picoline is obtained by contacting gaseous triallylamine with a solid catalyst having a dehydrogenating ability.
[0009]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In the present invention, gaseous triallylamine is brought into contact with a solid catalyst having dehydrogenation ability.
[0010]
The catalyst used in the present invention is a solid catalyst having a dehydrogenating ability, and contains at least one of a metal, a metal compound and a metal ion as an active component.
[0011]
As the solid catalyst having dehydrogenating ability, known ones can be widely used, for example, single metal oxides, composite metal oxides and layered compounds, and those containing the metal and / or metal ions constituting the above compounds, etc. Can be mentioned.
[0012]
The solid catalyst having dehydrogenation ability is a catalyst containing at least one selected from the group consisting of metals, metal compounds, and metal ions, and the metal belongs to Group 4 of the periodic table. A catalyst that is at least one metal selected from the group consisting of metals belonging to Group 11 and metals belonging to Group 12 is preferred.
[0013]
Examples of the metal belonging to Group 4 of the periodic table include titanium and zirconium. Examples of metals belonging to Group 11 of the periodic table include copper and silver. Examples of metals belonging to Group 12 of the periodic table include zinc and cadmium. Among these, zirconium, copper, and zinc are particularly preferable.
[0014]
Specific examples of the solid catalyst having such dehydrogenating ability include single-component metal oxides such as zinc oxide, zirconium oxide, copper oxide, silver oxide, zinc oxide, and cadmium oxide, titanium oxide / zirconium oxide, and copper oxide. Examples include layered compounds such as composite metal oxides such as / zinc oxide and zinc oxide / zirconium oxide, and zinc salts of aluminum silicate, which may be supported on a carrier such as silica and alumina.
[0015]
In the present invention, triallylamine and the solid catalyst are preferably contacted in an inert gas atmosphere.
[0016]
As the inert gas, known ones can be widely used, and examples thereof include nitrogen gas, helium gas, neon gas, argon gas, and water vapor. Among these, nitrogen gas is preferable.
[0017]
The reaction for obtaining β-picoline by contacting triallylamine with a solid catalyst having dehydrogenating ability is carried out using a fixed bed reactor or a fluidized bed reactor.
[0018]
When using a fixed bed reactor, for example, the solid catalyst is filled in the reaction tube, and the temperature of the catalyst filling portion of the reaction tube is usually raised to 250 to 550 ° C, preferably 300 to 500 ° C. Next, triallylamine is supplied to the catalyst filling portion of the reaction tube to perform a gas phase catalytic reaction. The liquid space velocity of triallylamine (hereinafter referred to as “LHSV”) is usually about 0.001 to 5 g / (ml catalyst · hr), preferably about 0.01 to 2 g / (ml catalyst · hr). In the case of using an inert gas, the space velocity of the mixed gas consisting of triallylamine and inert gas (hereinafter, referred to as "SV") is usually 30~10000Hr -1, preferably 100~3000Hr -1 is there. The mixing ratio of triallylamine and inert gas is usually about 0.1 to 20 mol, preferably about 0.5 to 5 mol, with respect to 1 mol of the former.
[0019]
The reaction of the present invention can be carried out under normal pressure, reduced pressure or increased pressure.
[0020]
【Effect of the invention】
According to the present invention, the target β-picoline can be produced in a high yield.
[0021]
According to the present invention, it is not necessary to use an organic solvent such as trimethylbenzene or cyclohexane as a diluent, and therefore a step of separating the diluent and β-picoline after the reaction is not required.
[0022]
Therefore, the method of the present invention is extremely advantageous as an industrial production method of β-picoline.
[0023]
【Example】
The present invention will be further clarified by the following examples and comparative examples.

Triallylamine was supplied at 0.5 g / LHSV / (ml catalyst · hr) and nitrogen was supplied at 11 ml / min (1 mol per 1 mol of triethylamine) to the catalyst packed portion. The SV of the mixed gas at this time was 170 hr −1 . The reaction product gas flowing out of the reaction tube was passed into 70 ml of methanol for 15 minutes, and the soluble components in the reaction product gas were dissolved in methanol. The resulting solution was analyzed by gas chromatography. As a result, the conversion of triallylamine was 100%, the yield of β-picoline was 74%, and the selectivity was 74%.

The same procedure as in Example 1 was performed except that copper oxide / zinc oxide / alumina (weight ratio 30/60/10) was used instead of zinc oxide in Example 1. As a result, the conversion of triallylamine was 100%, the yield of β-picoline was 76%, and the selectivity was 76%.
[0027]
Example 4
Example 1 was carried out in the same manner as in Example 1 except that Mizkanite (trade name, manufactured by Mizusawa Chemical Co., Ltd., natural zinc silicate: layered compound having a two-layer structure) was used instead of zinc oxide. . As a result, the conversion rate of triallylamine was 100%, the yield of β-picoline was 75%, and the selectivity was 75%.
[0028]
