Abstract 2, 6-Diisopropylnaphthalene (2, 6-DIPN), as the precursor of important monomer 2, 6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, was prepared by hydroisopropylation of refined naphthalene with propene over shape-selective catalyst.Naphthalene conversion of 92% and 2, 6-DIPN selectivity of 64% were obtained.Static melt crystallization was applied to separate and purify 2, 6-DIPN from its isomers, resulted in a product purity of ≥99%.The other isomers were converted into monoisopropylnaphthalene, which also reacted with propcne to form 2, 6-DIPN.A recycled process including hydroisopropylation, separation and transalkylation was established, the yield of 2, 6-DIPN based on naphthalene could be doubled by one cycle operation.
