Hexacyanocobalt

反応条件: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

実験手順: Potassium hexacyanocobaltate (4.0 g) is dissolved in deionized water (150 mL) in a beaker. Zinc chloride (10 g) is dissolved in deionized water (15 mL) in a second beaker. The aqueous solutions are quickly combined and magnetically stirred for 10 min. The precipitated solids are isolated by centrifugation. The solids are reslurried in deionized water (100 mL) for 10 min. with stirring, and are again recovered by centrifugation. The catalyst is dried in a vacuum oven at 50° C. and 30 in. (Hg) to constant weight. This catalyst is identified as Catalyst A. The precipitated solids are isolated by centrifugation with stirring are again recovered by centrifugation The catalyst is dried in a vacuum oven at 50° C.

実験手順: A one-liter round-bottom flask equipped with mechanical stirrer, addition funnel, and thermometer is charged with distilled water (604 g), potassium hexacyanocobaltate (14.8 g), and tert-butyl alcohol (78 g). The mixture is stirred until all of the cobalt salt dissolves. The resulting solution is heated to 30° C. A solution of zinc chloride in water (50 wt. % zinc chloride, 304 g of solution) is added over 50 min. with stirring. Stirring continues for another 30 min. at 30° C. The resulting white suspension is centrifuged. A wet cake of solids is isolated, and is resuspended with vigorous stirring in a solution of tert-butyl alcohol (204 g) and water (112 g). After all of the solids are completely suspended in the wash solution, the mixture is stirred for 30 min. The suspension is again centrifuged, and the wet solids are isolated. The solids are resuspended in 99.5% tert-butyl alcohol (288 g), centrifuged, and isolated as described above. The resulting paste contains about 24 wt. % zinc hexacyanocobaltate complex, the remainder being tert-butyl alcohol (about 64 wt. %), and water (about 12 wt. %). A sample of this paste catalyst is used "as is" as a catalyst for polyol synthesis. See Tables 1-5.

実験手順: A solution of zinc chloride (26.65 g; 0.1956 mole) in water (26.65 g) was added rapidly to an agitated solution of potassium hexacyanocobaltate (13.00 g, 0.0391 mole) in water (263.35 g). The potassium hexacyanocobaltate solution was maintained at 40° C. during addition of the zinc chloride solution. A colorless precipate of zinc hexacyanocobaltate particles formed immediately upon addition. After stirring for 15 minutes at 40° C., dimethoxyethane (84.00 g; 0.9321 mole) was added to the aqueous catalyst slurry. The resulting mixture was stirred for an additional 30 minutes and the zinc hexacyanocobaltate zinc chloride dimethoxyethane water complex catalyst recovered by filtration using a horizontal basket centrifugal filter and a light weight nylon fabric filter medium. After washing with 300 mL dimethoxyethane and drying in air at ambient temperature and pressure, the filter cake obtained was quite soft and could be easily crushed to a fine powder.

実験手順: This example demonstrates the preparation of a double metal cyanide complex catalyst using the process of this invention. A solution of zinc chloride (26.65 g; 0.1956 mole) in water (26.65 g) was added rapidly to a well-agitated solution of potassium hexacyanocobaltate (13.00 g, 0.0391 mole) in water (263.35 g). The potassium hexacyanocobaltate solution was maintained at 40° C. during addition of the zinc chloride solution.

The resulting mixture was stirred for an additional 30 minutes and the zinc hexacyanocobaltate zinc chloride.dimethoxyethane.water complex catalyst recovered by filtration using a horizontal basket centrifugal filter and a light weight nylon fabric filter medium. The filtration rate was relatively fast with minimal clogging of the pores of the filter medium.
