Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a chemical synthesis method, in particular to a synthesis method of high-purity polysorbate-80 (I). Background technique
[0002] Polysorbate-80 (I), also known as polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monooleate, it is a kind of hydrophilic nonionic surfactant, because it has better solubilizing effect, in When preparing injections of poorly soluble drugs, it is often used as a cosolvent, emulsifier and stabilizer.
[0003] The synthetic method of (I) reported in the literature usually has the following two kinds:
[0004] Method 1: Sorbitol and oleic acid undergo simultaneous dehydration and esterification reactions under the action of a basic catalyst to obtain sorbitan monooleate, which is then condensed with 20 mole fractions of ethylene oxide to obtain polysorbate- 80(I).
[0005] Method 2: Sorbitol is first dehydrated under the action of an acidic or alkaline catalyst to obtain sorbitan, then esterified with oleic acid to obt...
