Abstract

Hydrogenation of maleic anhydride using various homogeneous transition metal complex catalyst system has been investigated. It was observed that RhCl(PPh₃)₃ was the most active catalyst precursor for the hydrogenation of maleic anhydride to succinic arthydride. The optimum ligand and solvent were PPh₃ and ethylene glycol dimethylether, respectively. The effects of PPh₃:Rh mole ratio, temperature and pressure of H₂ have been studied. The typical experimental conditions are: temperature, 353-383 K; pressure of H2, 0.5-2.5 MPa; PPh₃:RhCl(PPh₃)₃, 0-16; RhCl(PPh₃)₃, 0.03 mmol; maleic anhydride, 20 mmol; volume of liquid, 8 ml; reaction time, 30-360 min. Under these experimental conditions, succinic anhydride was the only product, and the highest yield (99.0%) was obtained. A reasonable reaction mechanism is proposed.
