OIL MEDIUM USED IN SYNTHESIS REACTION IN REACTOR, METHOD OF PRODUCING DIMETHYL ETHER, METHOD OF PRODUCING MIXTURE OF DIMETHYL ETHER AND METHANOL Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC C07C9/22 C07C31/04 C07C43/04 C07C27/08 C07C41/01 C07C29/151 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to an oil medium which is suitable for producing dimethyl ether and/or methanol which is used in a synthesis reaction with a suspended layer as a medium which contains a basic component in form of a branched saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon containing 16-50 carbon atoms, 1-7 tertiary carbon atoms, 0 quaternary carbon atoms and 1-16 carbon atoms in branched chains bonded with tertiary carbon atoms; wherein at least one tertiary carbon atom is bonded with hydrocarbon chains with length of 4 or more carbon atoms, lying in three directions. The invention also relates to a method of producing dimethyl ether and a mixture of dimethyl ether and methanol using said oil medium.

EFFECT: use of the present oil medium ensures high efficiency of synthesis.
