Abstract

The present invention disclosed a method for preparing a thickener for tight oil and gas reservoir, which relieves damages. The technical solution includes the following steps: putting a three-flask in ice; adding perfluoroalkyl alcohol, P-toluenesulfonyl chloride and pyridine; reacting for 3 h at 0-20° C.; adding filter paper; ultrasonic dispersing for 1 h; removing the filter paper; washing the solution for 3-5 times by adding dilute hydrochloric acid to collect the intermediate product (I); adding 1,3-dihydroxy-propane-2-tert-butyl carbamate and the intermediate product (I) in another three-flask; adding potassium carbonate and N,N-dimethylformamide; reacting for 4 h at 40° C. to collect the intermediate product (II); adding trifluoroacetic acid and methylene chloride into the intermediate product (II); reacting at 45° C. for 2 h; extracting and vacuum drying; and adding 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate; reacting for 2 h to collect the final product (III).

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for preparing a supercritical carbon dioxide thickener for a tight oil and gas reservoir, comprising following steps:
(1) preparing P-toluene perfluoroalkyl ethylenesulfonates (TFES), which further comprises following sub-steps: after adding a perfluoroalkyl alcohol and a P-toluenesulfonyl chloride in a three-neck flask, wherein a molar ratio of the perfluoroalkyl alcohol and the P-toluenesulfonyl chloride is 1:1.1-1.2, and adding a pyridine; forming a system; wherein the system has reacted for 3 h under stirring thoroughly; maintaining a temperature at 0-20° C.; adding filter paper and carrying out ultrasonic dispersion for 1 h after a reaction is over; after removing unreacted residue P-toluenesulfonyl chloride and the filter paper; forming a system; washing the system with 15% dilute hydrochloric acid many times to remove the pyridine and collect a white solid; washing the white solid with distilled water for multiple times, drying the white solid by a vacuum drying oven at 40° C. for 3 h to prepare an intermediate product (I) TFES;
(2) preparing intermediate product (II) (1,3-bis(perfluoroalkyl ethoxy) isopropyl-2-tertbutyl carbamate) (PFEIT), which further comprises the following sub-steps: adding a 1,3-dihydroxy-propane-2-tert-butyl carbamate and the intermediate product (I) TFES in a three-neck flask, wherein a molar ratio of the 1,3-dihydroxy-propane-2-tert-butyl carbamate and the TFES is 2.1-2.2:1; then adding potassium carbonate and N,N-dimethylformamide; forming a system; wherein the system has been reacted for 4 h under stirring thoroughly at 40° C.; washing a reaction liquid with distilled water repeatedly after a reaction process is over; then carrying out vacuum drying to collect an intermediate product (II) PFEIT; and
(3) preparing a final product (III) 1,6-bis[1,3-bis(perfluoroalkyl ethoxy) isopropyl-2-urea] hexane (PFEIUH), which further comprises the following sub-steps: adding a mixture of methylene chloride and trifluoroacetic acid in a three-neck flask; wherein a volume ratio of the methylene chloride and the three trifluoroacetic acid is 2:1; adding the intermediate product (III) PFEIT to the mixture; maintaining a temperature at 45° C.; reacting for 2 h; adding the methylene chloride for extracting for 3 times to form an organic layer; drying the organic layer with a Na 2 SO 4 ; adding 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HMDI), wherein a molar ratio of the HMDI and the PFEIT is 1:2.05-2.10, reacting under a temperature of 50° C. for 2 h, washing a crude product with a mixture of ethyl acetate and benzene for multiple times; filtering and carrying out vacuum drying to collect a final product (III) PFEIUH, wherein a perfluoro alkyl is one from these groups C 5 F 11 , C 6 F 13 , C 7 F 15 , C 8 F 17 , C 9 F 19 , C 10 F 21 .
