One of the problems of modern electrical engineering is to ensure the reliability of the operation of capacitors with electric field strengths exceeding 150-200MB.

In severe pulse regimes, castor oil (CO) is used as liquid impregnation. However, the CO does not allow providing a resource of 104 charge-discharge pulses and reliability at the level of 0.950.99, because the current state standards do not regulate the dielectric parameters. Development of a substitute for natural castor oil, which is a universal impregnating liquid in capacitors, is an urgent problem of the electrical engineering industry. Castor oil-ricinoleic acid triglyceride, despite the difficulty of purification and achieving the necessary thermal stability, is used in low voltage AC film capacitors in the USA, Japan, Italy and other countries [1-3]. By chemical composition, CM is a high molecular organic substance, obtained from castor seeds, cultivated in the southern parts of Asia, America and Europe. The main way to extract oil from seeds is hot and cold pressing, as well as extraction. The composition of the oil includes is following: ricinoleic acid glycerides — 8095%, oleic 3-9%, linoleic 2-3%, and other unsaturated acids — 3-8%. The main share of glycerides of ricinoleic acid is its mono-, di-, and triglycerides, the quantitative content of which depends on the degree of maturation of the seeds [4]. Comparison of Russian and foreign CMs shows the advantage of imported CM as dielectric liquids. Taking into consideration CO is of vegetable origin, it becomes necessary to replace it with synthetic liquid. CO is used in power capacitors used in electric power industry, industrial electrical engineering and power electronics. In Table 1 the physical and electro-physical properties of the most promising esters used as dielectrics, in particular as impregnants for small capacitors [1-2].

Synthesis of esters of organic acids large of increased molecules mass, as a rule is carried out on the basis of esterification reaction, which refers to classical. At the same time, the deficit of higher alcohols and their high cost, the reversibility of the esterification reaction and the arising difficulty the target product, separation present difficulties for its practical spread. In this connection, the reaction of esters synthesis based on much more accessible halogen derivatives may be of practical interest [5]. Such method synthesis of esters may also be preferable because the carboxylic acid salt is cheaper and more accessible than the acid itself. The advantages of the method include the irreversibility, simplicity and ease the target product, separation the possibility of working on "anhydrous technology", which becomes particularly important of separation taking into consideration the high sensitivity of esters to water and the effect of hydrolysis on deterioration of the properties of electrical insulating materials.

In connection with this, a three-stage synthesis of acetoxymethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene, which is of interest as a potential substitute for castor oil, was carried out. We made an attempt to synthesize the compounds with a shielded ester function based on o-xylene according to the scheme:

Acetoxymethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene was synthesized on the basis of successive reactions of alkylation, chloromethylation of alkyl-substituted aromatic hydrocarbons of increased molecular weight, synthesis of esters by reaction of benzyl chlorides with sodium carboxylates. Is necessary to note some results related to the production of alkylbenzenes by alkylation with C5 — and higher olefins. An analysis of the above list of published sources allows us to conclude that the regularities of alkylation reaction of aromatic hydrocarbons with higher olefins in a homogeneous catalyst system are weakly illuminated.

It can be noted that in our specific case, we are talking about the synthesis of a dielectric liquid, which places high demands on the purity of the target product, since small impurities in it immediately reduce its practical value. It should be noted that in the publications reviewed, as a rule, processes for preparation of alkylaromatic hydrocarbons mixtures are described, and the problem of products synthesis for electrical purposes has not been solved. One can observe the general regularities of the chloro-methylation reaction of monoalkyl derivatives of lower

homologues of benzene with an increased molecular weight [6]. It was found that the high selectivity of ZnCl2 achieved in acetic acid solution is explained by the intermediate formation of the compound H2 (ZnCl2 (OCOCH3)2, which is the true catalyst of the reaction).

The chloroalkylation products yield decreases with increasing side chain length of alkylaromatic hydrocarbons, thus requiring an increased catalyst consumption.

In the electrophilic substitution reaction, to which the chloromethylation reaction relates, the solvent plays an important role. It is established that the reaction rate increases in the series: C2H5COOH <CH3COOH <CH3COSH<HCOOH, which agrees with the fact that the acidity of the carbonium ion in the given acid sequence is increased. In the interphase processes of solid-liquid systems, tertiary amines, quaternary ammonium salts (HOA), crown ethers, crypts, linear polyesters, diamines; polyamines are used as catalysts [7]. A number of studies are devoted only to the reaction between benzyl chloride and potassium benzoate (or acetate).

Experimental part

During the synthesis of acetoxymethyl-volt-hexide-o-xylene, the reactive o-xylene and hexene-1 grades "chemically pure", para-forms, acetic acid of the "chemically pure for analysis" brand was used. Sodium acetate was pre-dried at 100 °C. Hydrogen chloride was received from hydrochloric acid, followed by drying over H2SO4. As the catalyst for the alkylation reaction, the first stage of the synthesis of the desired product, both anhydrous aluminum chloride, its dry hydrogen chloride promoted samples and solutions in nitromethane were tested: the catalyst solvent was pre-dried over calcined K2CO3 and distilled 92% sulfuric acid was also used. Zinc chloride, used as a catalyst for the chloromethylation reaction (second synthesis step), was pre-dried to a melted form and stored in a desiccator over sulfuric acid; before use, the catalyst pieces were quickly ground and loaded into a reactor. Reagents and solvents necessary for qualitative and quantitative determination of intermediate and final products of acetoxymethyl-hexyl-o-xylene-reactive synthesis have been used without additional treatment. Activated y-Al2O3 was used to dry the dielectric liquid from current-carrying impurities. The process for the preparation of acetoxymethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene as shown above consists of three stages: alkylation, chloromethylation and acetylation. Reactions were carried out on laboratory units with agitating devices. Alkylation of o-xylene with hexene-1 was carried out as follows. The calculated amount of o-xylene was loaded into the reaction flask and warmed to the desired temperature. The calculated amount of the catalyst under study was loaded. In the case of using the AlCl3 • CH3NO2 catalyst, the latter was prepared separately by dissolving small portions of AlCl3 in nitromethane at room temperature. When the reaction was carried out in the presence of an AlCl3 HC1 catalyst, the contents of the flask were saturated throughout the experiment with dry hydrogen chloride. Then, the required amount of hexene-1 was fed through the dropping funnel, with constant stirring, for the selected time. After completion of the hexene-1 feed, the reaction mass was further subjected to stirring for 30 minutes. At the end of the experiment, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, followed by the separation of the catalyst.

In the case of using aluminum chloride catalysts, the reaction mixture was washed with water to decompose it, and then neutralized with a 20% solution of Na2CO3, washed with distilled water. The separated catalyst was dried over freshly calcined calcium chloride and accelerated in distilled under vacuum. In the vacuum distillation process, fractions of unreacted reagents were selected, as well as the target of hexyl-o-xylene. The fractions were analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography.

Chloromethylation of sec.hexyl-o-xylene was carried out according to the procedure consisting in the following. A predetermined amount of hexyl-o-xylene, freshly prepared anhydrous zinc chloride, perform and glacial acetic acid was charged into the reaction flask. After

the necessary temperature was established with intensive stirring, the calculated amount of hydrogen chloride dried over H2SO4 was started to flow for a predetermined time. To isolate the reaction mass from moist air, the side waste of the flask was connected to the sulfuric acid gate.

The reaction was stopped by pouring the reaction mixture into cold water. The organic layer was extracted with benzene. The benzene extract was washed with water, a weak soda solution; after drying over K2CO3, benzene was distilled off, the catalyst was distilled and subjected to analysis.

Acetoxylation of chloromethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene was carried out as follows. A predetermined amount of sodium acetate and acetic acid was charged into the reaction flask. The necessary temperature was set and, after dissolving CH3COONa, chloromethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene, dropwise taken in some deficiency with respect to CH3COONa, was started, with vigorous stirring. After feeding the entire amount of chloromethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene, stirring was continued for one hour. The reaction mass was then cooled, decomposed with water; after neutralization with a 20% solution of soda, the acetoxylation product over K2CO3 was dried, distilled under vacuum and analyzed.

Analysis of the initial raw material and reaction products was carried out by gas-liquid column chromatography. Chromatographic analysis of alkylation products was carried out on a Chrom-5 apparatus with a thermal conductivity detector with a sensitivity threshold of at least 3.10 — 3% (volume). The length of the column is 2 m, the inner diameter is 3-4 mm. The stationary phase Apiezon-L applied on phytochrome (fraction 0.3-0.5 mm). Carrier gas is helium, internal standard-n-dodecane. The temperature of the column is 180 °C, the evaporator is 300 °C, the current is 100 mA, the hydrogen carrier gas consumption is 30 ml/min. Chromatographic analysis of the products of chloromethylation of secondary hexyl-o-xylene was carried out on a chromatograph LXM-8MD with temperature programming, a column 4 mm in diameter filled with a stationary phase of chromotone (0.1-0.125 mm fraction) with an Apisezon-L 15% liquid phase applied and a silicone elastomer E-301 (1%); carrier gas-hydrogen, hydrogen feed rate of 30 ml/min. The temperature in the column is 160 °C, the evaporator is 300 °C, the detector current is 100 mA; n-dodecane was used as an internal standard. Chromatographic analysis of the acetoxylmethylation products was carried out on a Chromium-5 chromatograph with a flame ionization detector, a column length of 2 m, and an immobile Apeizon-L phase on an N-AW chromatograph. Carrier gas is hydrogen, hydrogen supply rate is 24 ml/min, air is 500 ml/min, nitrogen is 32 ml per minute; the column temperature is 200 °C.

For carrying out multiserial analyzes of chloromethyl derivatives, they were converted into ethoxymethyl-substituted boiling samples of the sample with KOH solution in ethanol. The value of the relative retention coefficient was determined by the formula:

The electrophysical and physicochemical properties of synthesized acetoxymethyl-t-hexyl-o-xylene were determined by standard techniques after vacuum distillation and fine purification from current-conducting impurities by the adsorption method on aluminum oxide. The dielectric dehydration plant was a one-liter flask with a tap for sampling and a glass stopper connected to a three-way valve. A liquid was placed in the flask and a pre-prepared alumina was added to it in

an amount of 10% of the weight of the liquid to be purified. To avoid undesirable contacts of the dielectric with air oxygen, the flask was filled with nitrogen, evacuated, then nitrogen was again fed through a three-way valve. The liquid was mixed with alumina evenly. The closed flask was then disconnected from the vacuum pump and held for several hours at 90 °C.

Results and discussion

Table 2 presents the material balances of the processes of alkylation of o-xylene with hexene-1 in the presence of various catalysts. The highest selectivity for the target product (secondary hexyl-o-xylene) is observed when the catalysts AlCl3CH3NO2 are used, the conversion of the olefin is 100%.

The synthesized sec.hexyl-o-xylene had the following physicochemical parameters: Tboy.point 104-106°C/4 mm mercury column; Elemental composition C — 88.21%, H — 11.32%. (calculated elemental composition C — 88.43%, H — 11.58%). Found: Microscopy — 188; MRfound — 61.9; MR calcul. — 61.8.

Of various modifications of the chloromethylation reaction, we have settled on the procedure for it carrying out in a solution of acetic acid in the presence catalyst of zinc chloride as a highly effective and selective system, applied to alkylaromatic substrates of increased molecular weight. With the help of highly reactive monochloromethyl-alkyl-o-xylenes, highly branched radicals can

be introduced into other compounds, shielding adjacent functional groups, which can reduce the sensitivity of shielded functions to undesirable effects of reagents or the acidic and basic media. In this connection, the process of monochloromethylation of alkyl-o-xylene with increased molecular weight was studied. For the start of the process, the moment of introduction into the reactor at the reaction temperature of the whole portion of the paraform was taken. Chromomethylate samples taken at regular intervals were analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography. In order to obtain acetoxymethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene, two modifications of the acetoxylation reaction were investigated (Table 3).

The non-catalytic reaction of the reaction of chloromethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene with sodium acetate was carried out in a solution of acetic acid. Catalytic acetoxylation was carried out in o-xylene in the presence of trimethylbenzylammonium chloride — the Makoshi-TEBH catalyst.

The reaction carried out in the solution of o-xylene can be attributed to interfacial processes in the liquid-solid system, since in the temperature range studied 100-130 °C, sodium acetate is only partially soluble in o-xylene. I also wanted to mention a simple but effective method of acetoxylation, the essence of which is as follows. In the second stage, in addition to chloromethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene, byproducts are formed-diarylmethanes (RAr) 2CH2 and hydrogen chloride is released as a result of the chloromethyl derivatives having a mobile chlorine atom undergoing a partial conversion by reaction:

RArCH2Cl + RArH ^ (RAr) 2CH2 + HCl

Distillation is carried out to separate the chloromethylate from the diarylalkanes. At the same time, due to the influence of high temperatures, the rate of the side reaction increases, the amount of by-product increases and the amount of chloromethylate, the desired intermediate, decreases, which lead to decrease in the yield of dielectric liquid. As a result of the conducted studies, it was shown that the separation of diarylalkanes does not require the rectification after the chloromethylation stage. Diarylalkanes are involved together with the desired intermediate product into the third stage, without being converted and having no effect on the course of the acetoxylation reaction. After the third stage, the reaction mixture is distilled to separate the dielectric liquid from the diarylalkanes. Thus, the sequence of technological operations is changed, allowing to reduce the decomposition of the main intermediate product — chloromethylate and, thereby, to increase the yield of the target product (Table 4). The synthesis of the ester is carried out as follows: the first stage of alkylation of o-xylene with hexene-1 is carried out in the presence of a solution of aluminum chloride in nitromethane at 500 °C for two hours and a mole ratio of reactants: o-xylene: hexene-1: aluminum chloride: nitromethane = 5:1:0.15:0.45.

After washing and neutralizing with 20% sodium carbonate solution, the reaction mixture is distilled to separate the alkylate from unreacted o-xylene and the products of the polymerization of hexane-1. Alkylate boils out at 102-104 °C / 3 mm. In the second stage, a mixture of paraform and dry gaseous hydrogen chloride in the presence of zinc chloride in glacial acetic acid for 4 hours at 600 °C is used to prepare chloromethyl-hexyl-o-xylene on the obtained hex-o-xylene.

Molar Ratio of Reactants: alkylate: paraform: chloride zinc = 1:0.6:0.22. The hydrogen chloride feed rate is 100 ml/min. After separation of the organic layer, washing and neutralization with 20% sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and drying are followed.

The third stage of acetylation of chloromethyl-t-hexyl-o-xylene is carried out with acetic acid sodium in acetic acid for 5 hours at 120 °C. The reaction mixture was washed, neutralized with 20% sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, dried, distilled in vacuum to separate from unreacted alkylate and diarylalkanes. The fraction 160-165 °C/4 mm mercury Colum was taken.

As can be seen from Table 4, the distillation in the chloromethylation stugep leads to the formation of a significant amount of diarylalkanes and the yield of the dielectric liquid is 72.3%. When diarylalkanes are involved in the acetoxylation stuge, the decomposition of chloromethylate is prevented under the influence of high temperatures and the yield of the dielectric liquid is increased to 87.7%. In Table 5 for comparative evaluation, material balances and dielectric liquid outlets calculated to convert alkylate during distillation in the second and third stages, respectively, are presented. In Table 6 compares the electrophysical characteristics of castor oil and acetoxymethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene. The traditional solvent used in this process, acetic acid serves as a homogenizer of the system, which facilitates warming, speeds up the reaction.

Conclusions

Thus, it can be considered that the most expedient method for carrying out the third stage of receives the dielectric liquid of acetoxymethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene is acetylation in the presence of an interfacial catalyst, triethyl-benzyl ammonium chloride, a Makoshi catalyst in an o-xylene medium. Electrophysical indices of liquid acetoxymethyl-sec.hexyl-o-xylene, obtained by technology with distillation of the reaction mixture in the chloromethylation stage and by technology with distillation in the acetoxylation stage, do not change. By carrying out the reaction under the conditions of interphase catalysis, it is possible to increase the yield of the key product, eliminate acidic waste (recycle o-xylene recycles), abandon the use of sufficiently scarce acetic acid, and increase the specific productivity of the reactor. The received product obtained is not inferior to the electro physical characteristics of a standard dielectric liquid.
