Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing germacrone, which belongs to the field of the preparation of traditional Chinese medicines. According to the method, the germacrone is extracted and prepared from raw materials which are rich in the germacrone. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: after primarily processing the raw materials which are rich in the germacrone, performing ultrasonic extraction by using an organic solvent at the temperature of below 45 DEG C; performing rotary evaporation and concentration to obtain extract; performing chromatography by using a silica gel-alumina composite column; performing gradient elution on the mixed solvent; recycling the solvent; and re-crystallizing by using petroleum ether-acetone or cyclohexane-ethanol to obtain the germacrone. By the preparation method, the germacrone has high yield; a closed system is adopted during extraction; solvent consumption is low; meanwhile, production safety is improved.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy, and relates to a method for preparing gemaconone from raw materials rich in gemaconone. Background technique: [0002] Gemacone is a monocyclic sesquiterpene compound present in Geranium, Rhododendron and Zingiberaceae, used for asthma and cough relief. Gemacrone, the English name is Germacrone, molecular formula C 15 h 22 O, molecular weight 218.33, molecular structure formula is as follows: [0003] [0004] Xing'an Rhododendron, rightly called Manshanhong. Sexual taste is hard, warm. Return lung, spleen channel. It has the effect of relieving cough and eliminating phlegm, and is a commonly used medicine for treating acute and chronic bronchitis in Northeast China. The volatile oil contains a variety of sesquiterpenes, among which rhododendron is the main component with a large content. Its pharmacological and clinical studies have confirmed that rhododendron is t...
