Properties and stability

1. Chemical properties: Lively, the carbonyl group in the molecule is easy to undergo addition, cyclization and polymerization reactions. Easily oxidized to acetic acid. Hydrates can be formed in water. It is easy to burn and explode when exposed to open flames or high heat.

2. Acetaldehyde is a flammable and toxic liquid. Irritating to eyes, skin and respiratory organs. Mild poisoning can cause symptoms such as asthma, coughing and headache, while severe poisoning can cause pneumonia and meningitis. Long-term exposure can cause a decrease in red blood cells and an increase in blood pressure. LD50 after oral administration to mice: 1232mg/kg. The maximum allowable concentration in the air at the operating site is 200*10-6. Operators must wear labor protection equipment.

Storage method

Storage Precautions[30] Stored in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature should not exceed 29°C. The packaging must be sealed and must not come into contact with air. They should be stored separately from oxidants, reducing agents, acids, etc. and avoid mixed storage. It should not be stored in large quantities or for long periods of time. Use explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities. It is prohibited to use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to sparks. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.

Synthesis method

There are many production methods for acetaldehyde:

1. Ethylene direct oxidation method Ethylene and oxygen are directly oxidized to synthesize crude acetaldehyde in one step through a catalyst containing palladium chloride, copper chloride, hydrochloric acid and water. , and then distilled to obtain the finished product.

2. Ethanol oxidation method ethanol vapor Acetaldehyde is produced by oxidative dehydrogenation of air using meshes or particles of silver, copper or silver-copper alloy as catalysts at 300-480°C.

3. Acetylene direct hydration method Acetylene and water are directly hydrated under the action of mercury catalyst or non-mercury catalyst to obtain acetaldehyde. Due to the problem of mercury harm , has been gradually replaced by other methods

4. Ethanol dehydrogenation method: Under the action of copper catalyst adding cobalt, chromium, zinc or other compounds, ethanol is dehydrogenated to produce acetaldehyde.

5. Saturated hydrocarbon oxidation method.

Raw material consumption quota: acetylene hydration law Each ton of product consumes 610kg of 99% acetylene; the ethanol oxidation method consumes 1200kg of 95% ethanol; the ethylene oxidation method (one-step method) consumes 710kg of 99% ethylene and 300 cubic meters of oxygen (99%). Commercially available industrial products acetaldehyde, ethylene method acetaldehyde. The purity of aldehyde is 99.7%, and the purity of ethanol method is 98%.

6. Preparation method:

In the reaction bottle equipped with a fractionation device (the receiving bottle is cooled with an ice bath to reduce the volatilization loss of acetaldehyde), add paraacetaldehyde ( 2) 50g, 0.5 mol of concentrated sulfuric acid, a few grains of zeolite. Heat slowly, being careful not to make the temperature at the top of the fractionation column too high. The reaction should proceed slowly, because acetaldehyde and paraacetaldehyde can form an azeotrope, bp42. ℃ (molar ratio is acetaldehyde: paraacetaldehyde = 53.4:46.6). Most of the acetaldehyde (1) is evaporated at 21 ~ 25 ℃. Stop distillation when there is approximately 10 mL left in the reaction bottle (if it is distilled to dryness) Risk of explosion). The acetaldehyde prepared in this way can meet most uses. If higher purity acetaldehyde is required, fractionation can be carried out again and the 21°C fraction can be collected.

7. Preparation method:

In a reaction bottle equipped with a ventilation tube, a dropping funnel, and a distillation device (the receiving bottle can be filled with two gas washing bottles connected in sequence, filled with ether, and cooled with an ice-salt bath), add 135 mL (about 2 mol) of ethanol (2) ), add 1/3 volume of dilute sulfuric acid composed of 150mL concentrated sulfuric acid and 250mL water. Pour in carbon dioxide gas and heat to boiling. After diluting another 2/3 volume of sulfuric acid with 100 mL of water, add 200 g of sodium dichromate, stir to dissolve, and drop this solution into the reactant. The reaction is exothermic. The generated acetaldehyde is continuously taken out by the carbon dioxide gas flow, and the acetaldehyde is dissolved in ether. Complete the dripping in about 30 minutes, and then continue to pass carbon dioxide for 10 minutes. A solution of acetaldehyde in diethyl ether was obtained. Acetaldehyde cannot be distilled from its ether solution. To obtain pure acetaldehyde, proceed as follows: cool the acetaldehyde ether solution in an ice-water bath, slowly pass in dry nitrogen, and shake continuously. During this period, acetaldehyde amine crystals precipitate until the precipitation is complete . Filter with suction, wash with anhydrous ether, and dry to obtain 55g of acetaldehydeamine (3). In a reaction bottle equipped with a ventilation tube, a dropping funnel, and a distillation device (the receiving bottle is cooled with an ice-salt bath), add compound (3), dissolve it in 50 mL of water, add carbon dioxide gas, heat it in the water bath, and dropwise add 60 mL of concentrated solution. The acetaldehyde produced by dilute sulfuric acid mixed with sulfuric acid and 80 mL of water is continuously evaporated, and the dripping is completed in about 30 minutes. The boiling point of acetaldehyde is 21°C. Note: ① Take a small amount of transparent liquid and add nitrogen until it is saturated. If no precipitation precipitates, it means the reaction is over.
