Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of perfume synthesis, and in particular relates to a preparation method of ambrox.
Background
Natural ambergris is a high-grade spice, which is derived from offwhite soft stones in the intestines and stomach of sperm whale, and the amount of the ambergris is very small. Ambrox is an artificially synthesized perfume with ambergris flavor, and is used as a substitute for natural ambergris. The ambrox 'ambergris effect' can greatly improve the diffusion effect of the essence, is used in the essence of high-grade perfume and cosmetics, has no stimulation to human body, and is suitable for the perfuming of skin, hair and fabrics, such as the perfuming and the fragrance fixing of soap, talcum powder, cream, shampoo and the like. The ambergris raw material can also be applied to cigarettes, is a key aroma component of the cigarettes, and the ambergris ether is a spice with a particularly prominent effect and has important contribution to the smoke of mixed cigarettes.
In the prior art, fen Mei Yi company uses ether as a solvent and lithium aluminum tetrahydride to reduce sclareolide into ambroxol; then the ambroxol is dehydrated to generate the ambrox under the conditions of vacuum, 135 ℃ and the existence of beta-naphthalenesulfonic acid. The disadvantages of this technique are: the lithium aluminum tetrahydride used in the first step is dangerous because it is a flammable explosive substance; the vacuum and 135 ℃ conditions required in the second step have high energy consumption and cost. It has also been reported in the literature that sclareolide can be reduced by adding 1.75 equivalents of potassium borohydride to 1.75 equivalents of lithium chloride, which can enhance the reduction of potassium borohydride, but the price of lithium chloride is still relatively expensive.
The information disclosed in this background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and should not be taken as an acknowledgement or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

dissolving r-sulfonic acid in a first organic solvent outside a reaction system, and slowly dripping into the reaction system within 0.1-8 hours after stirring and refluxing are started;
and (4) continuously stirring and refluxing for 0.1-8 hours until the reaction in the step (1) is finished.
Preferably, in the step 2, after the first organic solvent is vacuumized, the second organic solvent is added, and the reflux is continued in the same container for 0.1 to 10 hours until the reaction is completed.
