2-Methyl-2-propyl-1,3-propanediol Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

This product is obtained by catalytic hydrogenation of 2-methyl-2-pentenal to obtain 2-methylpentanal, and then undergoing methylolation and reduction with formaldehyde. The 2-methyl-2-pentenal hydrogenation reaction is conducted at 100°C and 1.3-1.5 MPa with a yield of 80%. After 2-methylvaleraldehyde was obtained, it was added to 36% formaldehyde, and sodium hydroxide solution was added dropwise at room temperature. The reaction was exothermic, and the temperature was naturally raised to 70°C, then heated to 90°C, added for 1 hour, cooled to 60°C and allowed to stand for separation. The upper layer liquid was washed with water, the washing liquid was combined with the lower layer liquid, and extracted with benzene. The extract and the upper layer liquid were combined, and after the benzene was recovered by distillation, vacuum distillation was conducted to collect 160°C (14.7kPa) fraction, which was 2-methyl-2-propyl-1, 3-propanediol, with a yield of 93%.
