Method for storing acetoin
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for storing acetoin, in particular to a storage method capable of effectively reducing acetoin decomposition.
Background
Acetoin, also known as 3-hydroxybutanone, naturally exists in a plurality of foods such as corn, grapes, apples and meat, is an edible spice with wide application, has pleasant cream fragrance, is a common spice variety internationally, and is mainly used for producing spices such as cream, dairy products, yoghourt and strawberry types. The national standard GB2760-86 stipulates that the food spice is a food spice which is allowed to be used. Acetoin is also a key intermediate for synthesizing 4-chloro-4, 5-dimethyl-1, 3-dioxolane-2-one (CDMDO), can be used for modifying a plurality of medicines, greatly improves the medicine effect, and reduces the side effect of the medicines, such as the intermediate for synthesizing cardiovascular medicines, olmesartan, penicillin medicines, ampicillin and fluoroquinolone antibacterial medicines, prulifloxacin and the like.
Acetoin can be prepared by biotransformation (Jun, modern chemical industry, 2008, 28 (4): 18-22), condensation of acetoin (CN 1562934), partial hydrogenation of 2, 3-butanedione (Zhang Xiaozhou, jiangsu chemical industry, 2001,29 (2): 29-31), and halogenated hydrolysis of methyl ethyl ketone (CN 101357882).
According to the current QB/T4234-2011 < 3-hydroxy-2-butanone (acetoin) > standard in China, indexes such as purity, density, refractive index, aroma and the like of the acetoin are limited, and the acetoin purity is required to be not lower than 96%. The acetoin belongs to alpha-hydroxy ketone compounds and contains two active functional groups of a hydroxyl group and a carbonyl group. No matter which method is adopted for preparation, acetoin molecules are active in chemical property and are easy to decompose (reverse reaction of acetoin condensation) at normal temperature to generate acetaldehyde and further generate acetic acid, and when the acetic acid exceeds a certain concentration, rapid decomposition of acetoin monomers is accelerated, so that the acetoin purity is rapidly reduced. In addition, after the acid value reaches a certain value, the acetoin monomer is easy to generate oxidation reaction to generate 2, 3-butanedione, so that the quality guarantee period of the acetoin monomer is short.

The content of Na ions and Ca ions of the acetoin monomer Z is lower than 0.1 mu g/g by adopting an ICP method.
In the following examples, the molecular sieve for calcium ion exchange is a Ca/FER molecular sieve, and the specific preparation method is as follows: 200 g of SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 NaK-FER molecular sieve with a molar ratio of 17.1, 214 g of NH 4 Mixing Cl and 4000 g of deionized water, pulping, stirring at 75 ℃ for 5 hours, filtering, repeating the exchange process at 75 ℃ for 5 times, and performing exchangeFiltering, washing the obtained filter cake with deionized water, drying at 110 deg.C and calcining at 550 deg.C to obtain hydrogen-type FER molecular sieve (HFER), wherein Na is 2 O and K 2 The total content of O is less than 0.001 percent. A sample of HFER was taken at 100 g,222 g CaCl 2 Mixing with 2000 g of deionized water, pulping, stirring for 5 hours at 75 ℃, filtering, repeating the exchange process for 5 times at 75 ℃, filtering after exchange, drying for 12 hours at 110 ℃, roasting for 8 hours at 550 ℃, and marking the obtained sample as Ca/FER.

The exchange degree of Ca/FER molecular sieves used in the following examples was determined to be more than 95% by the ICP-AES method
Comparative example 1
A commercially available analytically pure acetoin monomer (C-0-1) was used as a sample, and Na was added in an amount of 184.4. Mu.g/g to the C-0-1 sample by ICP measurement + As a stabilizer.
The change of each index with the standing time was observed, and the results are shown in Table 1. The purity initial measurement value of a commercially available acetoin monomer sample is 99.7%, and the standard requirement of QB/T4234-2011 is met. When a commercial acetoin monomer sample is unsealed, although the sample is still stored under sealed and backlight conditions after sampling analysis, when the sample is unsealed again for analysis and detection, the acid value is obviously increased gradually, and the acetoin purity is gradually reduced. Particularly, when the acid value exceeds a certain value (4 mgKOH/g), the purity reduction rate of acetoin is obviously accelerated. After 60 days after the opening of the additive sample, the acetoin purity index of the additive sample is reduced to 95.8 percent and is lower than the minimum requirement (96 percent) of QB/T4234-2011 standard.
