Description

A kind of preparation method of l-menthol
Technical field
The present invention relates to perfume synthesis technical fields, and in particular to a kind of preparation method of l-menthol.
Background technique
Menthol, scientific name are 5- methyl -2- isopropyl-cyclohexanol, and nickname menthol is colorless and transparent acicular crystal;L- Menthol, also known as levorotatory menthol, fusing point: 44 DEG C, boiling point: 216.4 DEG C, specific rotatory power [α] d:=-48o;Index of refraction: 1.458;It is slightly soluble in water, is dissolved in the conventional organic solvents such as hexamethylene, ethyl alcohol and benzene.Penetrating odor with brisk sweet tea, has very Strong refrigerant effect;And dextrorotation menthol has pungent penetrating odor, almost without refrigerant effect.Therefore have and answer extensively Substantially levorotatory menthol, medical and health, food industry and it is daily in terms of can be used as local fiber crops Liquor-saturated dose, cosmetics, fungicide, cigarette flavoring, refrigerant drink and food etc..
Since synthesis l-menthol has very high stability and higher economic interests, synthesis l-menthol takes in recent years Biggish breakthrough was obtained, the document and report about synthesis l-menthol are very more.
At present by report and industrialized process route have it is following several:
(1) Patent No. CN101932543A and US9988331B2 kind are reported, BASF Aktiengesellschaft is using citral as original Material, by the citronellal with chirality that catalyzes and synthesizes of expensive noble metal chiral catalyst, citronellal obtains hand by cyclisation The isopulegol of property, the method that menthol is synthesized by crystallization and purification isopulegol and catalytic hydrogenation isopulegol.
(2) Japanese takasago company develops one using laurene as raw material, reacts to obtain N, N- diethyl with diethylamide lithium Base geranyl amine, then by obtaining citronellal enamine under the catalyst of chiral catalyst (S)-BINAP-Rh, in acid condition Lower acquisition dextrorotation citronellal, cyclisation obtains isopulegol under the catalysis of zinc bromide, and last catalytic hydrogenation obtains l-menthol.
BASF and takasago are expensive using catalyst when chiral catalyst progress asymmetric hydrogenation, and industrialization technology is difficult Degree is big, and industrialization is easy inactivation with rear catalyst and is difficult to recycle, higher so as to cause production cost.
(3) l-menthol of the fragrant exploitation of German moral, the synthesis technology obtain hundred using metacresol as raw material, by alkylation In fragrant phenol, obtain the DL menthol for being mixed with isomers after catalytic hydrogenation, DL menthol separated by rectifying, is then passed through Transesterification synthesizes DL- Menthyl, and single D L Menthyl crystal seed is added, passes through repeated multiple times selection Property crystallization prepare L- Menthyl, then hydrolysis obtains pure l-menthol.
Solution crystallization processes fractionation effect using the technique of Menthyl is not relatively high, and single splits efficiency not Height needs repeated multiple times fractionation to crystallize, and causes fractionation crystallization process cumbersome, leads to production efficiency decline and the production cost increases.
Also there are much being described as follows for l-menthol preparation in other patents:
One kind is described in CN103468779A using Thymol as raw material, and hydrogen is added by the compound noble metal catalyst of palladium type Reaction obtains peppermint alcohol mixture, and the DL- menthol after rectifying, which passes through, obtains DL- menthyl ester with the esterification of acylating reagent, Menthyl ester is hydrolyzed to obtain l-menthol under the action of hydrolase is complete cellularised onion Bu Keshi bacterium.Use biological enzyme When as catalyst being split or carried out the approach preparation l-menthol of asymmetric esterification and asymmetric hydrolysis with microorganism, Biological enzyme preparation and discovery are difficult, are easy inactivation, and cost is higher.
The patent of Patent No. CN105461516A describes one kind directly using Thymol as raw material, by adding hydrogen, ester Exchange obtains benzoic acid DL- menthyl ester, is split by preferential crystallization method para Toluic Acid's DL- menthyl ester, obtains benzoic acid L- Menthyl ester and benzoic acid D- menthyl ester, D and L- menthyl ester obtain product l-menthol and D- menthol, D- after hydrolysis respectively Menthol and DL- menthol fraction and DL- menthol isomer mixture are by repeating benefit after Raney's nickel isomerization after rectifying Technique.It is the equal of the improvement technique to the fragrant technique of moral.The above method is the optimization to the fragrant technique of moral, entire excellent There is still a need for a large amount of solvent during first crystallisation, solvent recovery can also consume a large amount of energy consumption, and solvent in crystallization process In can remain a large amount of solute, although can recycle influences industrialized yield;This method is needed by splitting work simultaneously The ee value of sequence, recrystallizing technology, freezing and crystallizing process, the benzoic acid l- menthyl ester after splitting process is only 80%.
In conclusion there are following for the split process of benzoic acid D, L- menthyl ester at present in the preparation method of l-menthol Problem: solvent usage is big, and recycling energy consumption is high, and can remain a large amount of solute in crystallization process in solvent, although can recycle But influence industrialized yield;The ee value for individually splitting the benzoic acid L- menthyl ester that process obtains is lower, needs to combine and tie again Brilliant process could improve the ee value of benzoic acid L- menthyl ester.
Summary of the invention
In view of the above shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a kind of preparation method of l-menthol, realizes following invention Purpose:
(1) crystallization is split with the progress of fused junction crystallization, is participated in without solvent, more high-efficiency environment friendly, energy consumption are lower;
