Description

Chromium compound and manufacturing method thereof

The present invention relates to a chromium compound and a method for preparing the same.

CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF) (THF is tetrahydrofuran) is a material frequently used as a starting material in the preparation of organometallic chromium compounds and chromium coordination compounds. In particular, CrCl ₃ .3 (THF) is a basic compound with high commercial utility, such as being used for catalytic reaction of ethylene oligomerization by reacting with a bisphosphine ligand.

CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF) can be prepared by Soxhlet extraction of anhydrous CrCl ₃ with a THF solvent in the presence of zinc metal powder (J. Org. Chem. 1958, 23, 1404; Inorganic Synthesis, 1966, 8, 150). However, it is known that anhydrous CrCl ₃ is not easily synthesized (Inorganic Synthesis 1946, 2, 193; Inorganic Synthesis, 1960, 6, 129). Therefore, anhydrous CrCl ₃ is being sold at a high price ($116/250-g Strem).

Anhydrous CrCl ₃ is obtained by reacting CrCl ₃ 6(H ₂ O) ($36/500-g), which has a relatively low unit price compared to anhydrous CrCl ₃ , with an excess of SOCl ₂ (thionyl chloride), followed by adding THF to CrCl ₃ ㆍA method for preparing 3 (THF) is known (Scheme 1 below; Inorganic Synthesis 1957, 5, 154; Inorganica Chimica Acta, 1989, 156,163). In addition, a method for preparing CrCl _{3 .3 (THF) by reacting CrCl 3 .} 6 (H ₂ O) with an excess of Me ₃ SiCl in a THF solvent is known (Scheme 2 below; Inorg. Chem. 1990, 29, 1592). ).

[Scheme 1]

[Scheme 2]

However, in reality, the toxic SOCl ₂ or Me ₃ SiCl must be used in excess of the equivalent required in the reaction scheme, so the production method is not easy, such as generating a lot of toxic HCl. Therefore, CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF) is sold at a high price only by some companies (276,000 won/10-g, Aldrich). In particular, in the case of preparing using Me ₃ SiCl, a desired form of CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF) is obtained only when a very excess (60 equivalents) of Me ₃ SiCl is used to react. Otherwise, for example, when 25 equivalents of Me ₃ SiCl are used, a compound in the form of CrCl ₃ ·(THF) ₂ (H ₂ O) in which one water molecule remains may be formed. CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF), which is often purchased commercially, is sometimes sold in a form in which H ₂ O is partially left (Inorganic Chemistry Communications 2014, 44, 148; US 2013/0150642 A1).

An octahedral structure in the form of mer -CrCl ₃ (THF) ₃ having a CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF) composition was announced through X-ray crystallography (Inorganic Chemistry Communications 2014, 44, 148). In this case, mer -CrCl ₃ (THF) ₃ The crystalline compound having a single structure is not obtained by the above preparation method, but is obtained by reacting Cr(CH ₂ SiMe ₃ ) ₄ with HCl. The CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF) compound prepared by the above method or purchased in the market has an irregular shape (J. Inorg. Nucl. Chem. 1962, 24, 1105) and is a crystalline form when recrystallization is attempted to ensure purity. The solid is not obtained and irregularly shaped particles are produced, so the molecular structure is unreliable.

Therefore, if the THF adduct of crystalline high purity CrCl ₃ having a single structure can be synthesized by an easy method, it can be usefully utilized for the synthesis of various types of organometallic and coordinated chromium compounds, including ethylene oligomerized chromium catalyst, and Various problems encountered when attempting synthesis using CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF) can be solved.

The present invention will be described in detail so that those skilled in the art can easily carry out the present invention with reference to the accompanying examples. The present invention may be embodied in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

The present invention provides a chromium compound that can be prepared with high purity by a simple manufacturing method, can prepare a catalyst precursor for ethylene oligomerization with high purity, and can increase the catalytic activity of ethylene oligomerization through this.

The chromium compound of an embodiment of the present invention is a chromium coordination compound having a chromium trivalent cation, and is represented by the following Chemical Formula 1:

[Formula 1]

(In Formula 1,

X ¹ , X ² , X ³ , X ⁴ , X ⁵ , X ⁶ are each independently halogen,

R ¹ , R ² , R ³ , and R ⁴ are each independently one or more oxygen-containing heteroalicyclic rings, wherein the oxygen is directly connected to chromium (Cr)).

The 'halogen' may be fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), or iodine (I). Preferably, the halogen may be chlorine.

The 'at least one oxygen-containing heteroalicyclic ring' may be a functional group containing at least one oxygen among elements constituting the heteroalicyclic ring. For example, the at least one oxygen-containing heteroalicyclic ring is a heteroalicyclic ring having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, wherein carbon and oxygen are connected in the heteroalicyclic ring, and specifically, it may be tetrahydrofurfuryl.

The 'directly connected' means that no other element is bonded between oxygen and chromium.

The chromium compound of Formula 1 is a chromium trivalent compound CrX ₃ (X is halogen) and two units of a structure in which two oxygen-containing heteroalicyclic rings are coordinated to share a halogen X ³ , X ⁴ with each other to form a dinuclear (dinuclear) ) form of the compound. A chromium divalent compound, that is, a compound in which _two THF (tetrahydrofuran) molecules are coordinated to CrCl 2 (ie, CrCl ₂ (THF) ₂ ) is commonly used. However, it is extremely rare to use one in which two THF molecules are coordinated to the chromium trivalent compound CrCl ₃ (ie, CrCl ₃ (THF) ₂ ). The present invention provides a compound of Formula 1 in the form of a high-purity dinuclear that has a discrete structure and is purified through recrystallization having a single composition.

In addition, those containing three THF molecules in CrCl ₃ (ie, CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF)) are commonly used in the preparation of organometallic and coordinating chromium compounds. However, CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF) does not have an example in which high-purity purification through recrystallization is implemented, and its manufacturing method is also difficult.

The compound of Formula 1 can be prepared with high purity by the preparation method described in detail below, and thus has high processability and economical efficiency. In addition, the compound of Formula 1 can prepare a catalyst precursor for ethylene oligomerization described in detail below with high purity, thereby increasing ethylene oligomerization catalyst activity. In addition, the compound of Formula 1 can be used to prepare a catalyst precursor for oligomerization to provide a method for preparing ethylene oligomers having high catalytic activity for ethylene oligomerization.

In one embodiment, the compound of Formula 1 may be the compound of Formula 1-1 ([CrCl ₂ (THF) ₂ (μ ₂ -Cl)] ₂ ):

[Formula 1-1]

Hereinafter, a method for preparing the compound of Formula 1 in one embodiment of the present invention is provided:

The method for preparing the compound of Formula 1 is

CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6(H ₂ O) (wherein, X ¹ , X ² , X ³ are each independently halogen) under vacuum to obtain a first product (first step),

Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX (in this case, Y ¹ , Y ² , Y ³ is each independently monovalent to a filtrate obtained by adding a solvent having at least one oxygen-containing heteroalicyclic ring to the first product and filtering it) is an organic group, and X is a halogen) is added and reacted to obtain a second product (second step),

and recrystallizing the second product (third step).

[Step 1]

The first step is to obtain a first product by heat-treating CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) under vacuum under reduced pressure. The first step is to remove HX ¹ (or HX ² or HX ³ ) together with some H ₂ O contained in CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) through heat treatment under vacuum and reduced pressure.

It is commonly known to remove H ₂ O from CrX ¹ X ² X ³ .6 (H ₂ O) through heat treatment under vacuum reduced pressure. However, in the present invention, CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) from H ₂ O as well as HX ¹ (or HX ² or HX ³ ) was also removed. Through this, in the first step, it is possible to easily carry out the second step and the third step reaction to be carried out later, and it is possible to prepare the chromium compound of Formula 1 with high purity. The first step may make it possible to prepare the chromium compound of Formula 1 with high purity from crystalline CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O).

Specifically, the heat treatment under vacuum reduced pressure may be performed at a temperature containing CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) from 40°C to 100°C.

Preferably, the heat treatment under vacuum reduced pressure is a primary heat treatment performed at 40°C to 50°C; Secondary heat treatment raising the temperature from 40°C to 50°C to 100°C; And it may be carried out by step-by-step heat treatment including a tertiary heat treatment performed at 100 ℃. In the above temperature range, the desired effect of the first step of the present invention may be well performed.

The primary heat treatment may be performed for 1 hour to 2 hours. Secondary heat treatment may be performed for 30 minutes to 2 hours. The tertiary heat treatment may be performed for 3 to 5 hours. In the above time range, the desired effect of the first step of the present invention may be well performed.

The first product prepared through the first step may be reduced in weight by 30% to 40% by weight compared to CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O), which is the first reactant used in weight conversion. That is, not only H ₂ O removed through the first step, but also HX ¹ (or HX ² or HX ³ ) may be 30 wt% to 40 wt% of CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) . In the above range, the desired effect of the first step can be obtained, and economical efficiency and fairness can be improved because there is no additional heat treatment.

In one embodiment, CrX ¹ X ² X ³ •6 (H ₂ O) may be CrCl ₃ •6 (H ₂ O). If CrX ¹ X ² X ³ 6(H ₂ O) is CrCl ₃ 6(H ₂ O), the first product prepared from the first step would be inferred to be CrCl ₂ (OH)(H ₂ O) ₂ and the removed components may be H ₂ O and HCl.

On the other hand, in a method similar to the second step detailed below without going through the first step, a solvent containing one or more heteroalicyclic rings is added to CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) and Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX (In this case, Y ¹ , Y ² , Y ³ are each independently a monovalent organic group, and X is a halogen) is known. For example, when CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6(H ₂ O) is CrCl ₃ ㆍ6(H ₂ O) and Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX is Me ₃ Cl, it may be carried out in Scheme 2 below. .

[Scheme 2]

(Me in Scheme 2 is a methyl group)

However, in order to prepare CrCl ₃ ·3 (THF), 12 equivalents of Me ₃ SiCl compared to the chromium compound CrCl ₃ ·6 (H ₂ O) are required. In fact, 60 equivalents of Me ₃ SiCl are required to remove all water coordinated to chromium (Inorg. Chem. 1990, 29, 1592; Inorganic Chemistry Communications 2014, 44, 148).

In the present invention, since a significant amount of water and halogen hydrides are removed in the first step, about 5 equivalents of Me ₃ SiCl is required relative to chromium in the reaction scheme as in the second step below. In fact, it was possible to remove all water and convert the OH group to Cl by adding a little excess, that is, 6 equivalents of Me ₃ SiCl. In addition, there is an advantage in that the reaction can be performed using a small amount of THF solvent (36 mL of THF compared to 10 g of CrCl ₃ ·6 (H ₂ O)) for the reason of adding a small amount of Me ₃ SiCl. It is also an advantage that a small amount of HCl is generated.

[Step 2]

In the second step, Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX (in this case, Y ¹ , Y ² , Y ³ is each independently a monovalent organic group, X is a halogen) is added and reacted to obtain a second product. The monovalent organic group may be an alkyl group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms.

In the second step, after passing through the first step, H ₂ O remaining unremoved from CrX ¹ X ² X ³ 6(H ₂ O) is removed, and the OH ligand contained in the first product in the first step is converted to halogen. This is a step of reacting Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX to convert to a ligand.

H ₂ O remaining in the first product is removed by adding and reacting a solvent containing at least one heteroalicyclic ring to the first product of the first step. This reaction is an exothermic reaction, and it is preferable to add a heteroalicyclic ring-containing solvent at a low temperature, for example, -30°C to 0°C, followed by addition of Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX.

In one embodiment, the solvent containing one or more heteroalicyclic rings may be tetrahydrofuran.

Filtration is to remove a small amount of insoluble by-products and the like produced in the first step. Filtration may be performed by a conventional method.

In the second step, Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX is a molar ratio of CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) to (CrX ¹ X ² X ³ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) in the first step: Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX) in a molar ratio of 1:4 to 1:7, preferably 1:5 to 1:6. Within the above range, the compound of Formula 1 to be obtained by the present invention can be prepared with high purity. In addition, it is possible to add Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX in the above molar ratio by performing the first step as described above.

The reaction after adding Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX to the filtrate may be performed at room temperature, for example, 20° C. to 30° C.

In one embodiment, Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX may be (CH ₃ ) ₃ SiCl.

CrX ¹ X ² X ³ 6(H ₂ O) is CrCl ₃ 6(H ₂ O), the solvent having one or more oxygen-containing heteroalicyclic rings is tetrahydrofuran, Y ¹ Y ² Y ³ SiX When silver (CH ₃ ) ₃ SiCl, the second product may be a compound of Formula 1-1.

[Step 3]

The third step is a step of recrystallizing the reaction solution containing the second product prepared in the second step to obtain the compound of Formula 1 with high purity.

The compound of Formula 1 may be recrystallized by methods commonly known to those skilled in the art. The recrystallization solvent is not particularly limited, but CH ₂ Cl ₂ may be used as a solvent for dissolving the compound of formula (1).

Hereinafter, the configuration and operation of the present invention will be described in more detail through preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, this is presented as a preferred example of the present invention and cannot be construed as limiting the present invention in any sense.

Example 1: Preparation of chromium compound

Step 1:

Crystalline CrCl ₃ 6(H ₂ O) (10.0 g, 37.5 mmol) was placed in a flask and stirred at 40° C. for 1 hour while using a vacuum pump of the shrink line to form crystalline CrCl ₃ 6 (H ₂ O) The volatile components in the inside were removed. The temperature in the flask was gradually increased to 100° C. over 1 hour, and the volatile components were removed through a vacuum line while maintaining 100° C. for 4 hours. As the volatile components were removed, the crystalline form of CrCl ₃ ·6 (H ₂ O) was transformed into a powder form. In addition, the color of the crystalline CrCl ₃ ㆍ6 (H ₂ O) changed from dark green to light green through light gray to light purple.

It was confirmed with litmus paper that the removed volatile components were acidic water containing water and HCl. In addition, the volatile component was confirmed by measuring the mass (6.39 g) of the remaining chromium compound that was removed to 36% by weight relative to the mass of CrCl ₃ ·6 (H ₂ O) put into the flask. It was confirmed that the maximum value of volatile components that can be removed through the insignificant mass change even after treatment at 100° C. for a longer period of time converges to the level of 36 wt%. Through this, it was deduced that the chromium compound remaining after removal of the volatile component is CrCl ₂ (OH)(H ₂ O) ₂ . That is, when CrCl ₃ .6(H ₂ O) is changed to CrCl ₂ (OH)(H ₂ O) ₂ , the mass loss is 34% by weight, which is consistent with 36% by weight observed in the experiment, and also with HCl detection. matched.

Step 2:

THF (36 mL) cooled at -30°C was added to the pale purple fine powder obtained in the first step. As heat was generated, the chromium compound was dissolved in THF to form a dark-purple solution. Some insoluble by-products were removed by filtration using Celite.

(CH ₃ ) ₃ SiCl (24.4 g, 225 mmol, 6 equivalents relative to Cr) was added dropwise to the obtained filtrate under a nitrogen atmosphere. When stirred at room temperature, a solid in the form of a pink-purple powder was produced. After allowing the HCl gas, a by-product generated in the reaction process, to escape through the shrink line, the reaction was carried out with sufficient stirring overnight.

The resulting solid powder was obtained by filtration, and the obtained solid powder was successively washed with THF (10 mL) and hexane (10 ml) to obtain a non-reactant (CH ₃ ) ₃ SiCl and a by-product (CH ₃ ) ₃ SiOSi(CH ₃ ) ₃ and HCl were completely washed away. Residual solvent was completely removed using vacuum tubing to give a light purple solid powder (6.60 g).

Step 3:

The powder obtained in the second step was recrystallized using CH ₂ Cl ₂ to obtain a chromium compound. Specifically, the powder (4.12 g) obtained in the second step was dissolved in CH ₂ Cl ₂ (15.5 mL), put in a vial, and put into a larger container containing methylcyclohexane. When the vial in which the chromium compound is dissolved is opened and the larger container containing methylcyclohexane is sealed and left to stand for 24 hours, CH ₂ Cl ₂ in the vial evaporates slowly and dissolves into the methylcyclohexane layer in the large container. As the chromium compound was removed, the chromium compound was precipitated as dark purple crystals, which were washed to obtain a chromium compound (2.28 g, yield: 55%).

A single crystal of the chromium compound was taken and the structure of the chromium compound was analyzed through an X-ray crystal analyzer. The results are shown in FIG. 1 . Referring to FIG. 1 , it can be confirmed that the compound of Formula 1-1 ([CrCl ₂ (THF) ₂ (μ ₂ -Cl)] ₂ ) was prepared.

The reaction was stirred overnight at 60° C. while blocking light by wrapping it in silver foil. It was confirmed that a pale yellow solid (AgCl) was precipitated in the olive color solution. AgCl, a by-product, was removed by filtration using Celite. After concentrating the solvent from the obtained filtrate through a vacuum pipe, it was stored in a freezer at -30°C and recrystallized to obtain an olive-colored solid (0.456 g. Yield: 70%).
