Embodiment 1

[0020] Take chicle leaves (Alstonia scholaris) as a raw material, extract 1 kg of crushed chicle leaves with 1:3 times V / V industrial ethanol for 3 times, heat and reflux for 2 hours each time, combine the extracts, and recover the solvent to obtain chicle leaves Extract 230g. Add 0.2% hydrochloric acid aqueous solution to dissolve in extractum, fully stir, separate acid aqueous solution and precipitation, share 0.2% hydrochloric acid aqueous solution soak 4 times, merge acid aqueous layer, precipitation is ursolic acid crude product 96g. Add 2L of ethanol to the obtained precipitate to dissolve, and the solution is placed in a low temperature of 0°C for precipitation and crystallization. Once crystallized, 81g of ursolic acid can be obtained, and after multiple recrystallizations, ursolic acid with a purity of 98% can be obtained.

[0021] The obtained ursolic acid finished product is tested instrument, condition and result:

Embodiment 2

[0026] Take sugar gum leaves (Alstonia scholaris) as raw material, extract 1 kg of crushed sugar gum leaves with 1:4 times (V / V) industrial ethanol reflux for 4 times, heat and reflux for 1.5 hours each time, combine the extracts, recover the solvent to obtain sugar Gum leaf extract 228g. Add 2L of 2% sulfuric acid aqueous solution to the extract to dissolve, fully stir, soak the extract for 4 times in 2% sulfuric acid aqueous solution, and separate the acid aqueous solution and the precipitate. The precipitate was 90 g of crude ursolic acid. Add 2L of ethanol in the precipitation to dissolve, and the solution is placed at 5°C for precipitation and crystallization. Through HPLC content detection, 78g of 41% ursolic acid can be obtained in one crystallization, and 98% ursolic acid with a purity of 98% can be obtained after multiple recrystallizations.

Embodiment 3

[0028] Take sugar gum leaves (Alstonia scholaris) as a raw material, boil 1 kg of crushed sugar gum leaves in water for 3 times, each time for 1 hour, remove water-soluble impurities, and use 1:10 times (V / V) industrial The ethanol was refluxed for 3 times, heated and refluxed for 1 hour each time, the extracts were combined, and the solvent was recovered to obtain 220 g of sugar gum leaf extract. Add 2L of 2% hydrochloric acid aqueous solution to the extract for dissolving, fully stir, soak the extract for 4 times in 2% hydrochloric acid aqueous solution, and separate the acid aqueous solution and the precipitate. The precipitate was 88g of crude ursolic acid. Add 2L of ethanol to the precipitate to dissolve, and place the solution at 5°C for precipitation and crystallization. After content detection by HPLC, 52g of crude ursolic acid can be obtained in one crystallization, and ursolic acid with a purity of >98% can be obtained through multiple recrystallizations.

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparing method of ursolic acid, which comprises the following steps: extracting; separating; purifying; selecting carbohydrate gum leaf as raw material; boiling to remove soluble impurity; adding alcohol; extracting through heat for 2-4 times; combining the extract; recycling solvent to obtain concrete; adding acid water to dissolve; stirring completely; separating acid water and sediment; adding alcohol in the sediment to dissolve; crystallizing at low temperature; recrystallizing for many times to obtain different purity products.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing ursolic acid, in particular to a method for separating and preparing ursolic acid from sugar gum leaves (Alstonia scholaris). Background technique: [0002] Ursolic acid, also known as ursolic acid, is a pentacyclic triterpenoid compound with a molecular formula of C30H48O3 and a molecular weight of 456. It is a kind of triterpenoid compound existing in natural plants, which has various biological effects such as anti-hepatitis, anti-tumor, anti-HIV, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory, sedative, anti-diabetic, anti-ulcer, etc. In recent years, it has been found that ursolic acid has anti-carcinogenic, anti-cancer, induction of F9 teratoma cell differentiation and anti-angiogenesis effects, and it is very likely to become a new anti-cancer and anti-hepatitis drug with low toxicity and high efficiency. It has important uses in medicine and health care, daily chemical industry, functional food, etc., and...
