Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing alpha-angelica lactone by levulinate. The method comprises the following steps: an inorganic liquid acid or a solid acid catalyst which is 1 to 10 weight percent of the levulinate is added into the levulinate; the levulinate and the alpha-angelica lactone in a gaseous phase of a reaction system are separated by rectifying at a temperature of between 100 and 150 DEG C with vacuum degree of between 20 and 150mmHg; the levulinate returns to the reaction system; the alpha-angelica lactone is condensed at a temperature of between 60 and 90 DEG C; and the product is obtained through separating and rectifying. The method has the advantages of high selectivity, high purity, and applicability of serialized industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a method for preparing α-angelica lactone, in particular to a method for preparing α-angelica lactone from levulinic acid. Background technique [0002] α-Angelica lactone (C 5 h 6 o 2 , Mw=98.10), the chemical name is 4-hydroxyl-3-pentenolide or 5-methyl-2(3H)-furanone, which has a pleasant sweet smell and grassy fragrance similar to tobacco aroma, and is Colorless or light yellow oily liquid, when the temperature is lower than 18℃, it becomes needle crystal. It can emit a harmonious aroma with cigarette incense, caramel aroma, chocolate aroma, etc. It is an important food flavor, and it is also one of the main aroma components in tobacco. It has been widely used in the food and tobacco industries. But at present in our country, this product mainly relies on imports, which has seriously affected the popularization and utilization of this product in the food and cigarette industries. [0003] There are mainly two methods f...
