Acetic Anhydride is made by tree processes. In one, acetic acid (or acetone) is pyrolyzed to ketene. Acetaldehyde may be used as a solvent, the reaction is catalyzed by a mixture of cobalt and copper acetates. Methyl acetate may be carbonilated with a catalyst comprising rhodium chloride and chromium hexacarbonyl

Acetic anhydride is made by tree processes. In one, acetic acid (or acetone, but that is uneconomical) is pyrolyzed to ketene, which in turn reacts with acetic acid. The pyrolysis takes place at 700-800C in presence of triethyl phosphate at a very low residence time of 0.2 0.5 second. Molar yields are 85 - 89 %.
The second procedure involves the in situ production of peracetic acid form acetaldehyde, which in turn reacts with more acetaldehyde to yield the anhydride. This process is probably not in use. Ethyl acetate may be used as a solvent, the reaction is catalyzed by a mixture of cobalt and copper acetates. The molar yield anhydride is abut 75 %.
Eastman Chemical working with Halcon have development a novel process involving the carbonilation of methyl acetate with a catalyst comprising rhodium chloride and chromium hexacarbonyl, Cr(CO)6, in acetic acid solvent. In one reaction described in a patent, -picoline is a catalyst modifier and methyl iodine is a promoter. The hydrogen/carbon monoxide ratio is important, since increase in the hydrogen content provides a corresponding increase in the production of ethylidene diacetate. This compound is the basis for a proposed process for vinyl acetate but is undesirable if high selectivity to the anhydride is desired. Since this reaction is novel, the possible mechanism is of interest. Only the rhodium is show as the catalyst. In the first steps, acetyl iodide is formed. Reaction of this product with acetate ion yields acetic anhydride.
Acetic anhydrides main use is in the production of cellulose acetate. Other uses are small and include the formation of various esters such acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and acetylated amides of which N-acetyl-p-aminophenol (acetaminophen or paracetamol) is a prime example.
Ketene, the intermediate in one acetic anhydride process, is a powerfully lachrymatory gas with a choking smell. It is a invariably used in situ. Apart from its role in acetic anhydride production, it can be dimerized over trimethyl phosphate to diketene. Ammonia is added to inhibit the back reaction. Diketene reacts with methanol and ethanol to give methyl and ethyl acetoacetates.
