Description

Preparation method of cannabidiol crystal
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of industrial preparation of cannabinoids crystals, in particular to a preparation method of high-purity cannabidiol crystals.
Background
Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) is an annual herb plant of significant economic and medicinal value, also known as hemp, sisal, jute, and industrial hemp. The main active substance in cannabis is cannabinoids, which mainly include Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabinol (CBN) and its carboxyl compounds.
Among cannabinoids, CBD is a non-addictive component of cannabis, can inhibit the adverse effects of certain polyphenols on human nervous system, and has a series of physiological activities such as blocking breast cancer metastasis, treating epilepsy, and resisting rheumatoid arthritis. In recent years, cannabidiol has attracted much attention in the fields of medicine, food, health products, cosmetics, etc.
At present, the following methods are generally used in industry for producing cannabidiol crystals: column chromatography, supercritical fluid or subcritical fluid extraction technology, (enzyme-assisted) solvent extraction, biosynthesis, chemical synthesis and the like.
However, the traditional column chromatography process is extremely complex, high in production cost, low in extraction rate, easy to cause resource waste, and large in environmental pollution, and the adopted macroporous adsorption resin and polyamide chromatographic column have short service life. More importantly, the effect of column chromatography depends heavily on the conditions of each operation and the proficiency of operators, so that the quality (purity, impurity types and content, color, crystal morphology and the like) of the obtained product has large fluctuation and cannot meet the requirements of industrial production.
The supercritical fluid or subcritical fluid extraction technology has the problems of high equipment requirement, high production cost, complex operation and the like, and the cannabidiol obtained by the supercritical fluid or subcritical fluid extraction technology has low purity and is not suitable for the field of medicine. The existing solvent extraction usually needs enzymolysis pretreatment on raw materials, so that the solvent consumption is huge, the extraction rate is very low, and the subsequent separation process is complicated and tedious.
The production efficiency of biosynthesis and chemical synthesis is low at present. Moreover, because CBD has a plurality of chiral centers and cis-trans isomeric double bonds, the separation and purification steps are complex and the cost is high. Therefore, biosynthesis and chemical synthesis are only suitable for synthesizing a small amount of sample and are not suitable for industrial large-scale application at present.
In addition, the existing methods are difficult to effectively and stably control the content of the hallucinogenic addiction THC to be less than 0.3 percent, difficult to meet the requirements of safety supervision departments, and are not beneficial to the transportation, storage and use of cannabidiol products.
Thus, there is a need for a high purity, high yield process for preparing cannabidiol crystals.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a preparation method of cannabidiol crystals, which not only can greatly improve the extraction rate and the extraction purity of cannabidiol in industrial cannabis sativa, but also can effectively reduce the THC content in products so as to meet the safety requirement.
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for preparing cannabidiol crystals, comprising the steps of:
(1) decarboxylating and extracting the flower and leaf powder of industrial hemp to obtain a decarboxylated extract;
(2) mixing the decarboxylated extract with a first solvent, standing at low temperature for precipitation, separating to remove the precipitate, and concentrating the solvent containing cannabidiol to obtain a concentrated extract;
(3) mixing the concentrated extract with a second solvent, filtering, subjecting the filtrate to high pressure preparative liquid chromatography, collecting a fraction containing cannabidiol, and removing the solvent from the fraction to obtain a cannabidiol crude product;
(4) and mixing the cannabidiol crude product with a crystallization solvent, and crystallizing at low temperature to obtain cannabidiol crystals.
The inventors have found that by skillfully combining the decarboxylation, extraction, precipitation, high-pressure liquid phase preparation and crystallization steps in a specific manner, cannabidiol crystals of high purity can be obtained at a high extraction rate. In particular, the extraction yield and product purity can be further improved by employing specific extraction solvents, precipitation solvents, high pressure preparation of the liquid phase and/or specific process parameters. By adopting the method of the invention, the total extraction rate of more than 80 percent and even more than 92 percent can be obtained, and the purity of more than 99 percent and even more than 99.8 percent can be simultaneously obtained.
The crystals obtained by the process of the invention are almost free of THC, e.g. comprise less than 0.3%, preferably less than 0.1%, more preferably less than 0.05% THC, most preferably less than 0.01% THC.
More importantly, the process of the invention is particularly suitable for industrial mass production. The process of the invention is able to maintain a high degree of purity even in large scale production. Moreover, the method provided by the invention has the advantages of relatively simple operation, low cost, short production period, low energy consumption, low organic solvent consumption, energy conservation, environmental friendliness and the like.

Detailed Description
Definition of
Cannabidiol (CBD) is present in the plant cannabis in the form of (-) -CBD. Unless otherwise indicated, CBD in the present invention refers to (-) -CBD.
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the major addictive component of cannabis, can cause hallucinations and addiction, is a substance which is currently known to determine the properties of cannabis narcotics, and is classified as "narcotics" or "narcotics" by the united nations convention and laws in many countries. Internationally, a hemp variety with a THC content of less than 0.3% is defined as "industrial hemp" which does not have a drug utilization value, and a hemp variety with a THC content of more than 0.3% is defined as "drug hemp". The cannabis which is allowed to be planted in China at present basically belongs to industrial cannabis.
It is particularly noted that, in cannabinoids, THC and CBD are present in relatively high amounts, both being isomers of each other. This also makes it difficult to completely distinguish THC from CBD using conventional methods and to completely remove THC from CBD products.
Herein, "industrial large scale", "large scale" or "industrial application" means that the amount of pollen raw material is above 1 ton, more preferably at least 1.5 ton in a single treatment process or preparation process. In contrast, small-scale production generally uses a charge of 500kg or less or 50kg or more, and laboratories use a charge of 10kg or less.
The terms "preferred" and "preferably" refer to embodiments of the invention that may provide certain benefits under certain circumstances. However, other embodiments may be preferred, under the same or other circumstances. In addition, recitation of one or more preferred embodiments does not imply that other embodiments are not useful, and is not intended to exclude other embodiments from the scope of the invention.
Hereinafter, the technical solution of the present invention will be specifically described by some embodiments, but these embodiments are merely illustrative and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
Specifically, the invention provides a preparation method of cannabidiol crystals, which is characterized by comprising the following steps:
(1) decarboxylating and extracting the flower and leaf powder of industrial hemp to obtain a decarboxylated extract;
(2) mixing the decarboxylated extract with a first solvent, standing at a temperature below 20 deg.C for precipitation, separating to remove the precipitate, and concentrating the solvent containing cannabidiol to obtain a concentrated extract;
(3) mixing the concentrated extract with a second solvent, filtering, subjecting the filtrate to high pressure preparative liquid chromatography, collecting a fraction containing cannabidiol, and removing the solvent from the fraction to obtain a cannabidiol crude product;
(4) mixing the crude cannabidiol product with a crystallization solvent, and crystallizing at a temperature lower than room temperature to obtain cannabidiol crystals.
In the method of the present invention, a powder of leaves of industrial hemp is used as a raw material. The material is either commercially available as such or obtained from industrial cannabis plants by drying, grinding, sieving and the like. In some embodiments, the average particle size of the industrial cannabis sativa leaf powder is 50-100 mesh. Preferably, the particle size of the industrial hemp flower leaf powder is 60-80 mesh. The oversized powder particles require a longer time to process; and the undersized powder particles are easy to absorb moisture and bond, float to the environment, have too high surface energy and have higher safety risk.
In step (1), the decarboxylation step may convert most of the acidic species in the pollen to neutral species. The time and temperature of decarboxylation need to be selected to obtain a material suitable for subsequent processing. Excessive temperatures can cause some active substances to decompose, evaporate, and even carbonize; however, too low a temperature makes it difficult to decarboxylate the acidic substance, or decarboxylation is incomplete, and the time taken for decarboxylation is prolonged. Preferably, the decarboxylation step is performed to convert at least 97% of the acidic cannabinoids to their neutral form whilst ensuring that less than 5% of the active is decomposed or evaporated. In some embodiments, the decarboxylation step may be performed at a temperature of 80 to 130 ℃. Preferably, the decarboxylation step is carried out at a temperature of 90 to 120 ℃. In some embodiments, the decarboxylation step is carried out for 1.5 to 4h, preferably for 2 to 3 h.
In the step (1), the active substances such as cannabidiol and the like in the pollen of the flower leaves are extracted into the organic solvent through the extraction step, and then the organic solvent containing cannabidiol is concentrated to obtain the extract (extractum). The organic solvent may be concentrated by a conventional method such as atmospheric evaporation, reduced pressure evaporation, rotary evaporation and the like. At least one extraction, preferably at least two extractions, may be performed. When multiple extractions are performed, the organic solvents containing cannabidiol obtained from each extraction are combined and concentrated. Generally, the extraction step is carried out under normal pressure for the sake of easy operation and improved safety.
The solvent used for extraction is an organic solvent which can dissolve cannabidiol well, and at the same time it can be easily concentrated by evaporation to obtain extract containing cannabidiol. In some preferred embodiments, the solvent used for extraction is n-hexane, petroleum ether, acetone, or any combination thereof. More preferably, n-hexane is employed as the solvent for extraction.
The amount of solvent used for extraction may be selected as appropriate depending on the amount of the raw material or the content of cannabidiol in the raw material. Preferably, the weight ratio of the weight of the floral leaf powder to the amount of solvent used for each extraction is in the range of 1:4 to 1: 10. More preferably, the weight ratio of the weight of the floral leaf powder to the amount of solvent used for each extraction is in the range of 1:5 to 1: 8.
The temperature and time of extraction may be suitably selected depending on, among other factors, the rate of dissolution and solubility in the solvent of cannabidiol and the solvent used for extraction. Furthermore, at the extraction temperature, the solvent and the active substance do not evaporate to a large extent. Preferably, the extraction step is carried out at a temperature above room temperature so that the cannabidiol exhibits a high dissolution rate and solubility in the solvent. In some embodiments, the extraction step is performed at a temperature of 40 to 65 ℃. Preferably, the extraction may be performed at 45 to 60 ℃. In some embodiments, each extraction is performed for 1 to 3 hours. Preferably, each extraction is carried out for 1.5 to 2.5 hours.
In step (1), an extraction step may be performed before or after the decarboxylation step.
In some embodiments, in step (1), the extraction is performed after decarboxylation. Decarboxylation is carried out on the flower and leaf powder of industrial hemp, and then the decarboxylated flower and leaf powder is extracted to obtain a decarboxylated extract.
In other embodiments, in step (1), the extraction is performed prior to decarboxylation. The method comprises the steps of extracting the flower and leaf powder of industrial cannabis sativa to obtain an extract containing cannabidiol, and decarboxylating the extract containing cannabidiol to obtain a decarboxylated extract.
The inventors have found that under the same conditions (including the same amount of extraction solvent), with different sequences of decarboxylation and extraction steps, substantially the same overall extraction yield is obtained; however, when the decarboxylation after extraction is employed, the raw material for the decarboxylation step is significantly less than when the decarboxylation after extraction is employed, which greatly reduces the energy consumption and processing time of the decarboxylation step. Thus, in some embodiments, a process of extraction followed by decarboxylation is highly advantageous, especially for industrial scale applications.
In the step (2), the decarboxylated extract is mixed with a first solvent, allowed to stand at a low temperature for precipitation, and separated to remove the precipitate. The cannabidiol-containing solvent is then concentrated to give a concentrated extract (also referred to as a "treated extract").
In the precipitation refining process, the first solvent (also referred to as "precipitation refining solvent") used may be absolute ethanol, acetone, dichloromethane, or any combination thereof. Preferably, absolute ethanol, acetone or any combination thereof is used as the first solvent. Most preferably, acetone is used as the first solvent.
The inventors found that by specifically using acetone as a precipitation refining solvent, a significantly better effect is obtained than with other organic solvents. For example, when acetone is used as the first solvent, the total extraction yield is greatly improved. In particular, in large-scale industrial applications, a high overall extraction yield can still be maintained, while the purity is not significantly reduced.
This is highly expected since the total extraction, purity, efficiency of production etc. is often impaired to a different extent, especially if the total extraction is significantly reduced, by a person skilled in the art when scaling up the production (e.g. by a factor of 100, 200 or 500). Moreover, the solvents known in the art are very diverse and have a large number of combinations of solvents.
During the standing precipitation, the amount of the first solvent is 5 to 15 times, preferably 8 to 12 times of the weight of the extract. More preferably, the amount of the first solvent is 10 times of the weight of the extract.
The standing precipitation process is preferably carried out at a temperature of less than 20 ℃, more preferably at a temperature of-20 ℃ to 15 ℃, even more preferably at a temperature of-10 ℃ to 10 ℃. Most preferably at 4 ℃. + -. 1 ℃.
The standing precipitation process is preferably carried out for 2 to 8 hours, more preferably 3-5 hours. In some preferred embodiments, the standing precipitation process is carried out for 4 hours.
The inventors have found that by performing the standing precipitation according to the above preferred embodiment, the other active substances are well precipitated in the first solvent while the majority of cannabidiol remains in the first solvent.
In step (2), the precipitate may be separated and removed in a manner well known in the art. For example, centrifugation, filtration, decantation, etc. are employed. In some embodiments, the precipitate is removed by centrifugation. The person skilled in the art is able to perform the centrifugation using known centrifuges, for example a model number LLW450 horizontal screw centrifuge from model DL-6000B low-freeze centrifuge manufactured by shanghai incessant instruments and devices limited and ultracentrifuge limited manufactured by zhanggang, inc.
In step (3), the concentrated extract is mixed with a second solvent. Preferably, the weight ratio of the concentrated extract to the second solvent is in the range of 1:2 to 1:6, more preferably in the range of 1:3 to 1: 5.
In some preferred embodiments, the second solvent is a mixed solution of petroleum ether and acetone. More preferably, the volume ratio of petroleum ether to acetone is in the range of 15:1 to 10: 1. In some embodiments, the volume ratio of petroleum ether to acetone is 12: 1.
After the concentrated extract is dissolved in the second solvent, it may be filtered. In some embodiments, filtration using a 0.45 micron nylon filter membrane removes solid insolubles.
In step (3), the filtrate is subjected to high pressure preparative liquid chromatography. Collecting the fraction containing cannabidiol, and removing the solvent in the fraction to obtain a cannabidiol crude product.
The high-pressure preparative liquid chromatography is adopted, so that the purification efficiency can be greatly improved, a stable purification effect is obtained, and the deviation caused by manual operation and the introduced extra impurities are obviously reduced. The obtained fraction containing cannabidiol and the subsequent crude cannabidiol have high repeatability, meet the requirements of a quality management system, and are particularly suitable for industrial production. And other chromatographic separation methods such as a conventional column chromatography process and the like cannot meet the requirements of large-scale application.
In high pressure preparative liquid chromatography, preparative columns having a diameter in the range of 200mm to 1500mm may be employed. For example, a preparation column may be employed which may have a diameter of 200mm, 300mm, 500mm, 1000mm, 1200mm or 1500 mm. Accordingly, the loading of the concentrated extract is in the range of 180g-220g, 200g-1200g, 1.0kg-3.0kg, 2.0kg-8.0kg, 6kg-20kg or 12kg-30kg, respectively. Preferably, the loading of the concentrated extract is in the range of 180g-220g, 300g-1000g, 1.2-2.5kg, 3.0-7.0kg, 9-16kg or 15kg-20kg, respectively.
Preferably, in industrial scale applications, preparative columns having a diameter of 1000mm to 1500mm are used.
In the high pressure preparative liquid chromatography, the length of the preparative column is not particularly limited. One skilled in the art can reasonably determine the appropriate preparative column length. For example, the length of the preparation column may be in the range of 20cm to 100 cm. In an exemplary embodiment, the preparation column is 50cm in length.
In the high pressure preparative liquid chromatography, preferably, petroleum ether and acetone are used as mobile phases. In some preferred embodiments, gradient elution may be used to further effect separation of the substances. For example, in the initial elution stage, petroleum ether and acetone in a volume ratio of 12:1 are used as elution solvents; in the intermediate elution stage, petroleum ether and acetone in a volume ratio of 6:1 are used as elution solvents; in the final elution stage, petroleum ether and acetone in a volume ratio of 1:1 were used as the elution solvents. The elution is generally carried out for 5 to 10 hours, more preferably
The flow rate of the mobile phase is selected according to different preparation diameters. Preferably, when a preparation column with the diameter of 200mm is adopted, the flow rate is 200-; when a preparation column with the diameter of 500mm is adopted, the flow rate is 800-1000 ml/min; when a preparation column with the diameter of 1000mm is adopted, the flow rate is 15-20L/min; or, when a preparation column with the diameter of 1200mm is adopted, the flow rate is 16-25L/min. More preferably, when a preparation column with a diameter of 200mm is used, the flow rate is 250-300 ml/min; when a preparation column with the diameter of 500mm is adopted, the flow rate is 850-950 ml/min; when a preparation column with the diameter of 1000mm is adopted, the flow rate is 16-17L/min; or when a preparation column with the diameter of 1200mm is adopted, the flow rate is 18-22L/min. The inventors found that when the above specific flow rate and diameter parameters of the preparative column are used, not only the purification efficiency is improved as much as possible and the total extraction time is shortened significantly, but also a higher extraction rate is obtained and the final quality of the product is ensured.
In some embodiments, the chromatographic packing in the preparative column is Sephadex LH-20 hydroxypropyl glucose gel, average particle size 20 microns, pore size

In high pressure preparative liquid chromatography, a UV detector may be used to detect the fractions. In some preferred embodiments, a detection wavelength of 230nm is employed.
In the analytical detection section, high performance liquid chromatography can also be used to detect the fractions. In some preferred embodiments, a chromatographic column using octadecylsilane bonded silica as a packing material is used. The column length may be 25cm, the inner diameter 4.6mm, and the particle size 5.0. mu.m. In the chromatography used for detection, acetonitrile was used as mobile phase a, and phosphate buffer (pH 4) was used as mobile phase B. Preferably, elution can be performed at a volume ratio of a: B of 85: 15. In some preferred embodiments, the flow rate of the eluent may be 1 ml/min.
Unless otherwise stated, in the process of the invention, in high pressure preparative liquid chromatography, fractions which do not meet the purity requirements are combined to recover the sample and the solvent. Adding the recovered sample and solvent to the concentrated extract, mixing well, and then performing high pressure preparative liquid chromatography.
In step (4), the crude cannabidiol is dissolved in a crystallization solvent. And crystallizing the solution at low temperature to obtain cannabidiol crystals. In the crystallization in the step (4), the crystallization solvent is used for repeated rinsing after the crystallization is finished, and the cannabidiol crystal which is high in purity and does not contain hallucinogenic or addictive component THC is obtained.
Preferably, the crystallization is carried out at a temperature below 20 ℃, more preferably at a temperature of-20 ℃ to 15 ℃, even more preferably at a temperature of-10 ℃ to 10 ℃. Most preferably at 4 ℃. + -. 1 ℃.
The crystallization solvent can be one or more of petroleum ether, n-hexane and ethanol. The amount of crystallization solvent is 5 to 15 times, preferably 8 to 12 times the weight of the crude cannabidiol. More preferably, the amount of crystallization solvent is 10 times the weight of the crude cannabidiol.
The crystallization is preferably carried out for 8 to 24h, more preferably 10-20 h. In some preferred embodiments, the crystallization process is carried out for 12 to 15 hours.
The inventors have found that when the above preferred range is adopted, a significantly more excellent crystallization effect is obtained. The obtained cannabidiol crystal not only has relatively complete appearance, but also has relatively narrow crystal size distribution, higher density and good particle fluidity, and is beneficial to long-term storage and transportation.
In step (4), preferably, a decoloring agent is added for decoloring. Decolorizing and filtering, and crystallizing the filtrate. One or more of activated carbon, silica gel and alumina can be used as a decoloring agent. The amount of decolorizer is 5% -20%, preferably 10% -15% of the weight of crude cannabidiol. The decoloring time is not particularly limited. The skilled person can reasonably determine the time of decolorization according to the actual needs and the state of the sample. In some embodiments, the decolorizing is performed for 10-30 min. Preferably, the decolorization is carried out for 20 min.
The cannabidiol crystals obtained in step (4) comprise at least 99.3% cannabidiol. In a further preferred embodiment, the cannabidiol crystals obtained in step (4) comprise at least 99.5% and even up to 99.8% cannabidiol.
In the process of the present invention, the organic solvent used in steps (1) to (4) may be recovered and reused, unless otherwise specified. Therefore, the investment cost of materials is reduced, the emission of organic solvents is reduced, the energy is saved, the environment is protected, and the total extraction rate and the purity of the product can be improved.
The inventors have found that the process of the present invention enables high purity cannabidiol crystals to be obtained from the floral leaf powder with a total extraction rate of 80% or more. In some preferred embodiments, the total extraction rate can be up to 85% or more, and even up to 90% or more. This is extremely advantageous in industrial scale applications. The inventor researches and tries various prior art schemes, the total extraction rate is not satisfactory, is usually about 70 percent and lower than 80 percent, and cannot meet the requirement of large-scale industrial production.
Furthermore, by the process of the present invention, cannabidiol crystals can be prepared using commercial grade solvents without the need to use more pure solvents (e.g., chromatographically pure grades). This further reduces the cost of the process of the invention significantly, reduces the strict requirements on the operators and equipment, simplifies the operating procedures, and at the same time still allows obtaining a higher extraction yield and high purity cannabidiol crystals.

Example 9 extraction before decarboxylation
The extraction step and the high temperature decarboxylation step of example 3 were exchanged in order with unchanged process conditions and material usage. Namely, 10kg of industrial hemp flower leaf powder is mixed with n-hexane for extraction, and then the extract is decarboxylated at high temperature for 2 hours to obtain 680g of decarboxylated extract, wherein the content of CBD is 13.6%. See example 3 for subsequent steps and specific operating parameters.
As a result, it was found that the total extraction rate remained substantially unchanged. However, the energy consumption of example 9 is significantly lower than that of example 3 in terms of industrial cost and production efficiency. When the method of first extraction and then decarboxylation is adopted, the raw material of the high-temperature decarboxylation step is less than 1kg of extract, but when the method of first decarboxylation and then extraction is adopted, the raw material of the high-temperature decarboxylation step is 10kg of industrial hemp flower leaf powder. And moreover, high-temperature decarboxylation can be carried out in the same device during concentration of the extraction solvent, extract extractum does not need to be separated, and possible unnecessary loss caused by separation and transfer of extractum is avoided. Therefore, in the method of decarboxylation after extraction, the energy consumption of the decarboxylation step is remarkably reduced, the production efficiency is remarkably improved, and the method is particularly favorable for industrial scale application.
In the above examples, in the crystallization step, repeated rinsing was performed using a crystallization solvent after completion of crystallization. The parameters and conditions employed refer to those of example 1, unless otherwise specified. Thus, the above-described embodiments of the present invention can be compared in general to investigate the effect of different parameters on the production of cannabidiol crystals.
Comparing example 1 with example 2, it can be seen that when ethanol is used as the extraction solvent in the extraction step, an extract having a low CBD content and a large volume is produced, and thus the extraction efficiency is low. Comparing example 3 with example 5, it can be seen that, when a mixed solvent of petroleum ether and acetone is used as an elution solvent, it should not exceed 350 ml/min. In preparative flow chromatography systems, the flow rate of the eluting solvent has a significant effect on the final extraction yield.
As can be seen from the results of example 1, example 3 and example 6, using acetone as a precipitation solvent in the standing precipitation step, significantly higher extraction rates were obtained compared to other solvents (e.g., absolute ethanol and dichloromethane). From the results of examples 7 and 8 using the industrial scale, it can be seen that using acetone as the precipitation solvent in the standing precipitation step still maintained a significantly higher extraction yield compared to other solvents (e.g. absolute ethanol). Moreover, when absolute ethanol was used as the precipitation solvent, the total extraction rate decreased from 83.80% to 75.90%, i.e., 7.9%, from laboratory scale (example 1) to industrial scale (example 7); whereas, when acetone was used as the precipitation solvent, the total extraction rate decreased from 90.51% to 87.70%, i.e. only 2.81%, on scale from laboratory (example 3) to industrial (example 8). Therefore, the acetone is used as the precipitation solvent, and the method is particularly beneficial to industrial large-scale production.
Comparing figure 3 with figure 1, it can be seen that the cannabidiol crystals obtained by the process of the invention are of comparable or even higher purity than the currently marketed standard.
The above results show that cannabidiol crystals of high purity can be obtained with a high extraction rate using the method of the present invention.
