Description

Preparation method of high-purity caffeine
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of tea extracts, in particular to a preparation method of high-purity caffeine.
Background
Chromatography is widely used in the fields of pharmacy, chemical industry and the like in modern society as a separation means. By utilizing the principle differences of adsorption force, partition coefficient, solubility and the like, the target compound can be continuously distributed on the chromatographic column to form a separable 'color band' (the colorless substance can show different absorption peaks under a specific detector). The application fields of the chromatographic technique are wide, and the requirements on the chromatographic technique under different requirements are greatly different. The chromatographic methods with different separation mechanisms are combined and combined, so that different types of impurities around the target compound can be removed, and the purification effect is more efficient than that of a single chromatographic method.
Caffeine, a xanthine alkaloid compound, is a central nervous stimulant that temporarily drives drowsiness and restores energy. In nature, tea is one of the main sources of caffeine. However, the extracts of tea leaves are often very complex, and the traditional sublimation method for extracting caffeine has the disadvantage of high energy consumption; the traditional chromatographic separation method has limited separation capacity, and the traditional chromatographic method CN 202110628342.8 has low energy consumption, but the purity of the caffeine extracted from coffee by only a single chromatographic method is only 81.32% -87.38%, and the caffeine standard product can not be developed. There are also studies (patent application No. 201811069217.2) to prepare caffeine from camellia pollen by combining high-speed counter-current chromatography and semi-preparative chromatography; however, since no reasonable combination separation scheme is constructed, when the sample loading of the semi-preparative chromatography is only 1mg, the separation of caffeine is overloaded, and the separation effect is affected. In addition, the purity of the caffeine prepared by the method is only 94.05%, and the caffeine cannot reach the standard development grade.

mixing formic acid water solution with concentration of 0.05-0.2wt% and acetonitrile with concentration of 12-16wt% by using a solvent pump of a high performance liquid chromatograph to obtain a second mobile phase, balancing the reversed phase chromatographic column, completely injecting the second injection solution into the balanced reversed phase chromatographic column for separation, collecting components containing caffeine, concentrating and freeze-drying to obtain the high-purity caffeine.

In the present invention, impurities around caffeine, which are difficult to remove by the first reverse phase chromatography, can be completely removed by the second reverse phase chromatography by utilizing the difference in the degree of separation and the order between the impurities and caffeine in the two reverse phase chromatographs. Compared with a single reversed-phase chromatography, the two reversed-phase chromatography methods have complementary functions on the impurity removal capacity, so that the sample loading capacity of the tea extract on an analytical C18 chromatographic column (the specification is 250 mm long, the diameter is 4.6 mm, and the filler particle size is 10 microns) is up to 60 mg/time in the chromatographic preparation process, the preparation efficiency is greatly improved, and the recovery rate can also be up to 82.33%.

Mixing 0.1wt% formic acid aqueous solution and 16wt% acetonitrile via solvent pump of high performance liquid chromatograph as mobile phase, and balancing chromatographic column for 15min. And c, injecting the second sample injection liquid in the step b into a well-balanced chromatographic column for separation, collecting components containing caffeine, concentrating, and freeze-drying to obtain 11.0mg of caffeine in white solid state.
The purity of the caffeine is identified by high performance liquid chromatography, and the purity is as high as 98.8%. The overall caffeine recovery was calculated to be 76.0%.
As can be seen from the above examples, the recovery of caffeine is related to the amount of the tea extract loaded in step a, the methanol content in the mobile phase in step b and the acetonitrile content in the mobile phase in step c. The higher the content of methanol in the mobile phase in step b and acetonitrile in the mobile phase in step c, the higher the elution strength of the mobile phase and the lower the caffeine recovery rate.
It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the foregoing is only illustrative of several embodiments of the invention, and is not an exhaustive list. It should be noted that many variations and modifications are possible to those skilled in the art, and all variations and modifications that do not depart from the gist of the invention are intended to be within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
