Properties and stability

1. Avoid contact with air. Avoid contact with acid chloride, oxygen, and acids. 2. Colorless and easy-flowing liquid, it will turn brown or dark red when exposed to sunlight or air. Has a bitter taste. Miscible with water, but unstable in water, easily soluble in ethanol, ether, benzene and chloroform, but insoluble in petroleum hydrocarbons. Insoluble in alkanes. It easily polymerizes and explodes violently when exposed to acid. It is flammable. Steam and air can form an explosive mixture, with an explosion limit of 1.8%-16.3% (volume fraction). It is stable to alkali. When adding alkaline substances such as tripropylamine, it can prevent the tendency of auto-oxidation. Moderately toxic. Furfuryl alcohol undergoes auto-oxidation under the action of oxygen in the air and turns brown, and the moisture content and acidity also increase. Adding alkaline substances such as tripropylamine can prevent the auto-oxidation of furfuryl alcohol. Furfuryl alcohol reacts with strong inorganic acids or strong organic acids to cause explosion. Avoid being close to strong acids during storage. The flammability of furfuryl alcohol is similar to that of kerosene. It should be kept away from water sources. In case of fire, use carbon dioxide or powder fire extinguishing agent to extinguish the fire.

3. Chemical properties: Furfuryl alcohol can reduce the ammonia solution of silver nitrate when heated. It is stable to alkali, but prone to resinization under the action of acid or oxygen in the air. It is particularly sensitive to strong acids and often catches fire when reacting violently. Blue color appears when heated with a mixture of diphenylamine, acetic acid, and concentrated sulfuric acid (diphenylamine reaction).

4. Exist in flue-cured tobacco leaves, burley tobacco leaves, oriental tobacco leaves and smoke.

Storage method

It should be sealed away from light and stored in a cool place. Avoid close contact with strong acids during storage. It should be kept away from water sources and can be stored in iron, mild steel or aluminum containers.

Synthesis method

1. Refining method: dry with anhydrous sodium sulfate or anhydrous potassium carbonate and then fractionate. Fractionation is best carried out under a stream of nitrogen. You can also perform vacuum distillation first to remove tar-like substances, then shake it with sodium bisulfite aqueous solution, dry it with anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then fractionate it under reduced pressure in the presence of sodium carbonate.

2. The industrial production method of furfuryl alcohol is produced by hydrogenation of furfural:

Hydrogenate into liquid There are two types of phase hydrogenation and gas phase hydrogenation. Liquid phase hydrogenation method: Furfural and hydrogen exist in a Cu-Cr-Ca catalyst in a ratio of 1:42 (molar ratio)The reaction is carried out at 190~210℃, 5-8MPa (or above 10MPa, 170℃, using Cu-Cr catalyst). After the reaction is completed, settle and remove the solid catalyst. The resulting liquid is crude furfuryl alcohol. Gas-phase hydrogenation method: In a tubular reactor, furfural and hydrogen are reacted at 1:42 (molar ratio) in the presence of a Ni-Cu or Cr-Cu catalyst at 80 to 170°C and 0.1 to 0.39MPa. have to. The obtained crude furfuryl alcohol is rectified under reduced pressure at 80-87kPa to remove tar-like substances, then washed with sodium bisulfite, dried and dehydrated, and then sodium carbonate is added to reduce the pressure. Distill to obtain pure furanmethanol.

3.The disproportionation method uses furfural as raw material to cause a disproportionation reaction of furfural in the presence of caustic soda. The advantage is that the equipment is simple and no reducing agent is required. The disadvantage is that the utilization rate of raw materials is low.

Purpose

1. In addition to being used as a raw material for furan resin, furfuryl alcohol can also be used as a dye, solvent, dispersant, and wetting agent for varnish, phenolic resin, and furan resin. The plasticizer made from it has better cold resistance than the esters of butanol and octanol. 2.Used for synthetic resin. Used as solvent and preservative for dyes and resins. 3.is an important chemical and light industrial raw material, used to synthesize furfural resins with various properties, adhesives in the machine-made casting industry, furan resins or Adhesives, urea-formaldehyde resin, phenolic resin, furfuryl alcohol-urea-formaldehyde resin, synthetic rubber, pesticides, cold-resistant plasticizers, etc. It is also used as a solvent, diluent, modifier, dispersant or wetting agent for coatings, dyes, furan resins, furfural resins, etc. It is also used as a rocket fuel additive and paint stripper. 3. Used in organic synthesis, synthetic fibers, rubber, pesticides, etc.
