Description

A method of oxidation beta carotene prepares canthaxanthin
Technical field
The invention belongs to chemosynthesis technical fields, are related to a kind of method that oxidation beta carotene prepares canthaxanthin.
Background technique
Canthaxanthin (or be canthaxanthin) is a Carotenoids, be present in certain mushrooms, shell-fish, fish, algae, In egg, blood and liver.FDA/WHO approval canthaxanthin is included in food additives and has worked out quality standard within 1984.Canthaxanthin Food additives be can be used as beverage, ice cream, waffle without auxiliary material biscuit, sauce, tomato processing product and meat packing Product etc..Canthaxanthin is added in the feeds of poultry such as chicken, duck, generates a kind of favorite crocus of consumer in yolk.
1980, Joachim Paust (US4212827) et al. reported the side that oxidation beta carotene prepares canthaxanthin Method.This method is to aoxidize beta carotene with chlorate or bromate in the presence of a catalyst, and this method is the disadvantage is that when reacting Between it is too long, cause it is more difficult, technique is unstable, uses more iodide.
