2Preparation method: Isopropylacetone is produced by dehydration of diacetone alcohol. Due to its active chemical nature, it often contains impurities such as acidic substances and condensation polymers. The general refining method is drying with anhydrous sodium sulfate and then distilling.

Preparation method:

Diacetone alcohol (3): Add 660mL (9mol) of acetone (2) to the Soxhlet extractor, and wrap the hydrogen in the extraction tube of the Soxhlet extractor with filter paper Barium oxide, heated in a water bath and refluxed for 100 hours. Change to a distillation device, first steam out the acetone, then distill under reduced pressure, collect the fraction at 62~64°C/1.75kPa, and obtain 370~410g of diacetone alcohol (3), with a yield of 68%~74%. Mesopropylene oxide (1): In a round-bottomed flask equipped with a fractionation device, add 350g (6mol) of diacetone alcohol (3), 0.1g iodine, and a few grains of zeolite, and heat in an oil bath for distillation. Collect the following fractions: the fraction below 85°C (contains acetone and a small amount of mesityl oxide); the fraction between 85 and 126°C (contains water and mesityl oxide, which can be separated into layers after standing, and the lower layer is water); Fraction at 126~130℃ (mesopropylene oxide). The middle fraction is dehydrated and dried with anhydrous potassium carbonate. After being combined with the third fraction, it is re-distilled and the 127-129°C fraction is collected to obtain mesityl oxide. The first fraction is dried with anhydrous potassium carbonate and re-distilled to obtain a small amount of mesityl oxide. A total of 250 to 280 g of mesityl oxide (1) was obtained, with a yield of 85% to 95%. [1]

Purpose

It is a strong solvent with medium boiling point. The evaporation rate is between acetone and diacetone alcohol. Together with isophorone, it can be used as a low-viscosity diluent for nitro spray paint, a solvent or paint remover for vinyl resin, rubber and cellulose ester coatings, dyes and inks. Also used in the manufacture of insect repellents, mineral flotation agents, etc.
