The present invention is a method for producing fatty acid aromatic esters, such as benzyl acetate, by liquid-phase oxidation of benzene derivatives, such as toluene, xylenes, ethylbenzene, etc., in fatty acids with molecular oxygen in the coexistence of cobalt salts, copper salts, and bromine compounds. Regarding. Fatty acid aromatic esters, such as benzyl acetate, are useful in their own right as flavoring agents and as solvents for shellac, alkyd resins, and cellulosic resins. In addition, benzyl acetate is easily hydrolyzed with alkali or acid to obtain benzyl alcohol, which can also be
It is widely used as a raw material for the synthesis of various chemical products, in addition to volatilization retention agents for fragrances, color development aids for photographs, and gloss-imparting agents for resin paints. Although there is a method for producing fatty acid aromatic esters such as benzyl acetate using benzyl chloride as a production raw material, the method using toluene has advantages such as being inexpensive. For this reason, various methods for producing fatty acid benzyl ester or benzyl alcohol by oxidizing toluene have been proposed. For example, (1) a method of oxidizing toluene with chromic acid or an oxidizing agent such as sulfuric acid or perchloric acid as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 52-3372; (2) a method of oxidizing toluene with molecular oxygen ( (3) A method in which acetic acid, acetic anhydride, etc. are added to the reaction according to method (2) above. At this time, no catalyst was used (special public
-21455) or using metal oxidation catalysts such as Co and Pd (Japanese Patent Publications No. 42-13081, No. 51-45572),
Other methods have been proposed. However, method (1) has the disadvantage of using a relatively expensive oxidizing agent. Furthermore, the yield of benzyl alcohol or its ester is not satisfactory even with methods (2) and (3) in which oxidation is performed using inexpensive molecular oxygen. The present inventors investigated various reactions in which benzene derivatives having an alkyl substituent having a hydrogen atom at the α-position relative to the benzene nucleus are oxidized in the liquid phase in fatty acids using molecular oxygen. The inventors have completed the present invention by discovering that fatty acid aromatic esters can be obtained in excellent yields if the reaction is carried out in the coexistence of these compounds. That is, the present invention provides a method for producing benzyl acetate or α-phenylethyl acetate, which is characterized by carrying out liquid phase oxidation of toluene or ethylbenzene with molecular oxygen in acetic acid in the coexistence of cobalt acetate, copper acetate and sodium bromide. Regarding. The ratio of cobalt salts, copper salts, and bromine compounds that should coexist is the atomic ratio of cobalt, copper, and bromine: Co:
Cu:Br=1:0.1-10:0.5-100, preferably cobalt and copper are about equal amounts, and bromine is 0.5-10 relative to cobalt. Further, in order to sufficiently increase the oxidation rate of these compounds to coexist, it is desirable that the concentration of each of these compounds be 0.002 mol/or more. The present invention involves liquid phase oxidation in acetic acid. Furthermore, the reaction may take various forms such as a batch type and a continuous type. The reaction temperature is 80℃~200℃, preferably 90℃~180℃
It is ℃. Generally, at low temperatures, as described below, some amount of bromide intermediates such as benzyl bromide are produced, but the ultimate yield of esters is high, reaching 90%. Molecular oxygen may be mixed with another inert gas, such as nitrogen, or may be introduced into the reaction system in the form of air. However, depending on the stirring conditions in the reaction system, if too much molecular oxygen is introduced into the reaction system, oxidation may progress further and may not stop at the ester and alcohol stage, resulting in the amount of carboxylic acid produced. tends to increase. Note that when toluene and ethylbenzene are oxidized as benzene derivatives in the liquid phase oxidation in acetic acid in the reaction of the present invention, benzyl acetate and α-phenylethyl acetate are obtained, respectively. In addition to esters, small amounts of aldehydes or ketones, alcohols and carboxylic acids are usually obtained as oxidation products. In addition, relatively low-temperature oxidation reactions may produce small amounts of bromides such as benzyl bromide, but these organic bromides react with acids and easily produce the desired ester,
For example, benzyl bromide produces benzyl acetate, so it can be considered a reaction intermediate. Next, the present invention will be specifically explained using examples. The reaction conditions and the like are summarized in Table 1, and the reaction products are summarized in Table 2. Examples (Experiment Numbers 1 to 4) In Experiment Numbers 2 and 4, the substrates shown in Table 1 were placed in a 200 ml three-necked flask, and in Experiment Numbers 1 and 3, they were placed in a stainless steel autoclave with an internal volume of 200 ml.
1.4 mo/containing 70 ml of acetic acid solution, also shown in Table 1.
Cobalt acetate, copper acetate, and sodium bromide were added at the concentrations indicated in . Next, the reaction was started by heating and stirring while flowing air at 30 ml/min. After the reaction was completed, the reaction mixture was extracted with ether using a conventional method, and the reaction product was analyzed by gas chromatography. Comparative Example (Experiment No. 5) In liquid phase oxidation of toluene with acetic acid, only cobalt acetate and sodium bromide were allowed to coexist, and the reaction was carried out in a stainless steel autoclave. The reaction product was primarily benzoic acid.
