Equipped with the appropriate variety and quantity of fire equipment. The storage area should be equipped with emergency spill treatment equipment and suitable containment materials.

2. It can be stored and transported in ordinary steel containers. It cannot be stored and transported in rubber, phenolic resin, epoxy resin, concrete and sharp equipment. The color will turn slightly yellow after long-term storage in steel containers. During storage and transportation, keep away from fire and heat sources, prevent direct sunlight, and keep containers sealed. Store in a dry, cool, ventilated space and separate from oxidants, acids and alkalis.

Synthesis method

1. Maleic anhydride hydrogenation method This method is an advanced process developed in the 1970s. It uses a one-stage hydrogenation reaction to produce tetrahydrofuran and γ-butyrolactone in any ratio. The usual ratio is tetrachlorofuran: γ-butyrolactone. Lactone=3-4:1. There are many manufacturing enterprises, but the scale is small, with an average capacity of 300t/a. The production capacity of this method accounts for 30% of the total domestic production capacity.

2, 1,4-D The glycol dehydrogenation method uses a tubular reactor filled with a flake copper catalyst (with zinc oxide as a carrier). The reaction temperature is controlled at 230-240°C. The crude γ-butyrolactone, the reaction product, is distilled under reduced pressure to obtain the finished product, with a yield of more than 77%.

3. So 1, 4 -Butanediol is used as raw material, preheated first, reacted with hydrogen in the presence of copper catalyst, and the temperature is controlled at 230-240°C to obtain crude γ-butyrolactone, which is obtained by distillation under reduced pressure.
4. At present, succinic anhydride has been obtained by hydrogenation using the maleic anhydride method, and then further hydrogenated and dehydrated to obtain the product.

5. Allyl alcohol method: Use aromatic hydrocarbons as solvents and rhodium complexes as catalysts to hydroformylate allyl alcohol and raw gas (H2+CO), and use skeleton nickel to catalyze hydrogenation to obtain 1,4-butanediene. alcohol, and then produce γ-butyrolactone, and co-produce tetrahydrofuran.

6. Furfural method: DuPont decarbonylates furfural in water vapor to obtain furan, which is further oxidized to generate γ-butyrolactone.

7. Ethylene acetic acid method B.and acetic acid at 120°C, catalyzed by MPa and manganese acetate or manganese dioxide, to produce finished products.

8. β-Formylpropionate method β-Formylpropionate is obtained by hydrogenation reduction, hydrolysis, dehydration and cyclization.

10. Preparation method:

In a reaction flask equipped with a stirrer, reflux condenser (connected to a gas pipe to the hydrogen chloride absorption device), thermometer, and dropping funnel, add chloroform 250mL, 250g (1.88mol) anhydrous aluminum trichloride, stir to form a suspension. Slowly add a mixture of 42.5g (0.528mol) chloroethanol and 80g (0,5mol) diethyl malonate (2) dropwise, and complete the addition in about 2 hours. Hydrogen chloride gas is continuously produced during the reaction. Leave overnight. Under cooling in an ice-water bath, slowly add 250 mL of 2 mol/L hydrochloric acid dropwise to decompose the reaction solution, and generate hydrogen chloride gas at the same time. After the addition is completed, the temperature is slowly raised and the reaction is refluxed for 40 hours. Separate the brown-red chloroform liquid (retain the aqueous layer), and dissolve the solid in 150 mL of water. The aqueous layers were combined and extracted three times with chloroform. Combine the chloroform layers, wash with water until neutral, and dry over anhydrous calcium chloride. Chloroform was evaporated, and then distilled under reduced pressure. The fractions at 85-100°C/1.05kPa were collected to obtain 36g of γ-butyrolactone (1), with a yield of 82%. ^[1]
