Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing L-theanine by a chemical method. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, reacting ethylamine with acryloyl chloride in the presence of an alkali to obtain N-ethylacrylamide; secondly, perform Michael addition reaction on chiral auxiliary BPB based glycine Schiff base Ni(II) coordination compound and the N-ethylacrylamide in the presence of the alkali to obtain theanine Schiff base Ni(II) coordination compound; and finally, performing acid hydrolysis on the theanine Schiff base Ni(II) coordination compound to prepare the L-theanine. The method adopts the chiral auxiliary chemical method to prepare the L-theanine, and constructs a complete theanine fragment through the Michael addition reaction so as to prepare the theanine Schiff base Ni(II) coordination compound, wherein the rigid space structure of the coordination compound can maintain the L-configuration of the theanine so as to ensure the optical purity of the L-theanine. The method can reclaim the chiral auxiliary in high yield, and can elute Ni(II) ions through ion exchange for recycling.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing L-theanine by chemical method. Background technique [0002] L-theanine, namely N-ethyl-γ-L-glutamine (theanine, N-ethyl-γ-L-glutamine), is a unique amino acid in tea and an effective taste substance in green tea. The content of L-theanine directly determines the quality of tea. No matter what grade of tea, L-theanine accounts for more than 50% of the free amino acids in tea, and the content in dry tea is about 1% to 2% (Liu Yuan, Wang Jian. The latest research progress of theanine. China Food and Nutrition, 2007, (10): 23~25.). As early as 1950, Japanese scholar Yajiro Sato extracted, refined and determined the chemical structure of L-theanine from tea for the first time. In the following 50 years, many scholars have conducted systematic research on L-theanine from the aspects of tea tree physiology, cultivation, breeding, biochemistry and quality chemistry. In the past 10 years, the focus of research...
