的な精製方法として問題があつた。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for regenerating silica gel, and more particularly to a method for regenerating silica gel used for purification of coenzyme Q. Coenzyme Q is involved in the electron transport system in vivo, and is used as a therapeutic agent for diseases such as heart failure. This coenzyme Q is produced by methods such as synthesis, fermentation, and extraction from natural products, but as it is a pharmaceutical, it is required to be highly pure. Column chromatography using silica gel as an adsorbent is used as a purification method for this purpose, but due to the separation of coenzyme Q and impurities in column chromatography, the regeneration of silica gel is insufficient. Therefore, it was difficult to reuse it. For these reasons, column chromatography using silica gel has been problematic as an industrial purification method in terms of workability and the amount of silica gel used.

た。 The present inventors investigated various methods for regenerating silica gel in silica gel column chromatography, and found that by contacting silica gel after adsorption, elution, and washing with a nonpolar solvent at a temperature of 40°C to below the boiling point. It is possible to remove water adsorbed by silica gel and the solvent used for washing, and column chromatography using regenerated silica gel obtained by this method can effectively separate coenzyme Q from impurities. Silica gel can be used repeatedly, and the amount of silica gel used can be reduced. Furthermore, it has been found that this regeneration method is applied to the silica gel that is still filled in the column container, so that operations such as filling and taking out the silica gel can be omitted, and the present invention has been completed.

In a method for regenerating silica gel in a column in which the silica gel is washed with a cleaning organic solvent and then brought into contact with a nonpolar solvent, the silica gel is heated at 40°C.
This is a method for regenerating silica gel characterized by using a nonpolar solvent at a temperature between or below the boiling point.

If this temperature is higher than the boiling point of the solvent used, at normal pressure some of the solvent will gasify and therefore the flow of the solvent in the column will not be smooth and the regeneration of the silica gel will not take place or will be insufficient. Become. Furthermore, if this temperature is lower than 40°C, the regeneration of the silica gel will be insufficient or impossible. As a heating method, a heated solvent may be injected into the column, or the entire column may be heated, but the latter is preferred in practice.

的に大きな意義がある。 In this way, through the regeneration in the present invention, at least the water adsorbed on the silica gel, as well as the cleaning solvent used in the cleaning, are removed by being discharged from the column together with the regeneration solvent used in the regeneration. The silica gel is recycled. The silica gel used to purify coenzyme Q was previously thought to be unable to be reused due to insufficient regeneration, but the present invention restores the adsorption separation ability of silica gel and makes it possible to reuse it. Eliminates the need for replacement,
Furthermore, the amount of silica gel used can be reduced, resulting in improvements in terms of cost and operation, and the present invention has great industrial significance.
