Abstract:
Preparation of trimesic from mesitylene in liquid phase oxidation by air under normal pressure was studied.The effects of reaction conditions,such as reaction temperature,reaction time,catalyst,oxidation accelerator and solvent were investigated.The results showed that optimum conditions are:reaction temperature 95℃,reaction time 4h,mesitylene∶glacial acetic acid∶coablt acetate∶sodium bromide (mol)=1∶35∶02∶01.The recovery of trimesic can arrive to 51.63%.The acid value is 75489mg(KOH)/g and the purity is 85% after the analysis of liquid chromatography.
