Description

Preparation method of beta-carotene
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of compound preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of beta-carotene.
Background
The beta-carotene is a vitamin A source substance, can be used in the industries of medicines, foods, cosmetics, feed additives and dyes, and has good market application prospect. The currently disclosed preparation methods of beta-carotene are many, and the process for synthesizing the beta-carotene by taking the vitamin A and the derivatives thereof as starting raw materials mainly comprises Wittig condensation reaction and oxidative coupling.
The specific process of the Wittig condensation reaction is to react vitamin A alcohol or derivatives thereof with triarylphosphine to obtain organic phosphonium salt, and then the organic phosphonium salt is further condensed with vitamin A aldehyde through the Wittig reaction to obtain beta-carotene, wherein the specific reaction process is shown as a formula (1). The Wittig reaction requires no water and oxygen, the conditions are harsh, and the chemical property of the vitamin A aldehyde is unstable, so that the vitamin A aldehyde is not easy to industrially prepare.
(1)
The specific process of the oxidative coupling is to react vitamin A alcohol or derivatives thereof with triarylphosphine to obtain organic phosphonium salt, and then to perform oxidative coupling on two molecules of the organic phosphonium salt to obtain the beta-carotene, wherein the specific reaction process is shown as a formula (2). Because the structure of the beta-carotene is symmetrical, the process route for preparing the beta-carotene by carrying out the oxidative coupling reaction between two molecules of organic phosphonium salt is simpler.

Both CN101081829A and CN101041631A disclose that vitamin a alcohol or organic phosphonium salt of its derivatives undergo oxidative coupling reaction in the presence of an oxidant to obtain β -carotene, wherein the oxidant used is hypochlorite, chlorate, hydrogen peroxide, sodium percarbonate, oxygen or air. However, the reaction yields of β -carotene are low.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to overcome the defect of low reaction yield of beta-carotene obtained by the existing method, and provides a preparation method capable of improving the yield of beta-carotene.
Aiming at a reaction system for synthesizing beta-carotene by oxidizing coupling reaction of vitamin A organic phosphine salt, when hydrogen peroxide is used as an oxidant, the reasons for lower reaction yield are mainly attributed to the following two points: firstly, under the alkaline condition, particularly under the condition of high-valence metal ions, hydrogen peroxide can be subjected to uncontrollable decomposition, and one part of the added hydrogen peroxide is subjected to uncontrollable decomposition while the other part is subjected to uncontrollable decomposition, so that the reaction is uncontrollable; and secondly, the vitamin A organic phosphonium salt has more side reactions under the oxidation of hydrogen peroxide. The inventor of the invention finds that after extensive and intensive research, the nano silver colloid is added into a hydrogen peroxide oxidative coupling reaction system of the vitamin A organic phosphonium salt, and the nano silver colloid simultaneously plays the roles of a stabilizer and a catalyst, so that the stability of the hydrogen peroxide can be improved, the problem of uncontrollable decomposition of the hydrogen peroxide under an alkaline condition can be solved, the probability of side reaction can be reduced, and the selectivity of oxidizing the vitamin A organic phosphonium salt into beta-carotene can be improved. Based on this, the present invention has been completed.
Specifically, the invention provides a preparation method of beta-carotene, which comprises the following steps: carrying out oxidative coupling reaction on vitamin A organic phosphonium salt shown in formula (1) and hydrogen peroxide in an alkaline system containing nano silver colloid;

Further, the mode of the oxidative coupling reaction is as follows: dissolving vitamin A organic phosphonium salt and alkali in a solvent to form a mixed solution, then dripping the mixed solution of nano silver colloid and hydrogen peroxide into the mixed solution, and stirring until the oxidative coupling reaction is complete.
Further, the mass concentration of the nano silver colloid in the mixed liquid of the nano silver colloid and hydrogen peroxide is 0.01-0.1%.
Furthermore, the particle size of the nano silver colloid is 2-100 nm.

In the process of oxidizing vitamin A organic phosphonium salt by hydrogen peroxide to obtain the beta-carotene, the nano silver colloid is used as a stabilizer and a catalyst, so that the selectivity and the yield of the beta-carotene can be remarkably improved. The beta-carotene prepared by the method can be used in the fields of medicines, foods, cosmetics, feed additives, dyes and the like.
The inventor of the present invention has found, after extensive and intensive research, that when nano silver colloid is mixed with hydrogen peroxide and added, the hydrogen peroxide can be pre-stabilized before an oxidative coupling reaction system is added, and a large amount of nano silver colloid is closely distributed around the hydrogen peroxide in the adding process or the oxidative coupling reaction process, so that the nano silver colloid can be protected from decomposition, the whole oxidative coupling reaction process is ensured to be carried out controllably, and the selectivity and the yield of beta-carotene are improved.
