Embodiment 1

[0013] Example 1, under nitrogen protection, menthol (156g, 1mol, 1eq) was added to a three-necked reaction flask filled with 300ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, and when the internal temperature was lowered to 0-10°C, 60% NaH (48g, 1.2mol, 1.2eq), after the addition is complete, slowly raise the temperature to room temperature, stir at room temperature for 30-50min and then lower the temperature to 0-10°C, add 1,3-dichloroglycerol acetate dropwise (162.45g, 0.95mol, 0.95eq) tetrahydrofuran solution, dropwise completed, the temperature rose to 60 o C. Stir for 1-2 hours, drop to 0-15°C, add a certain amount of water dropwise, and add a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium iodide (3.2g), and raise the temperature to 60-70°C and stir for 3h. After the reaction is completed , extracted three times with n-hexane, 500ml each time, combined the three extracted organic layers, washed each 100ml with water and brine, washed the organic layer once, separated, dried, and distilled n-h...

Embodiment 2

[0014] Example 2, under nitrogen protection, menthol (300g, 1.92mol, 1eq) was added to a three-necked reaction flask containing 500ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, and when the internal temperature was lowered to 0-10°C, 60% NaH (153.8 g, 3.84mol, 2eq), after the addition is complete, slowly raise the temperature to room temperature, stir at room temperature for 30-50min and then lower the temperature to 0-10°C, drop in 1,3-dichloroglycerolacetic acid Ester (328g, 1.92mol, eq) tetrahydrofuran solution, after dropping, raise the temperature to 60°C, stir for 1-2 hours, then drop to 0-15°C, drop a certain amount of water, and add a catalytic amount of tetrabutyl Ammonium iodide (6g, 2%), raise the temperature to 60-70°C and stir for 3h. After the reaction is completed, extract three times with n-hexane, 500ml each time, combine the three extracted organic layers, wash once with 200ml each of water and brine The organic layer was separated and dried, and the n-hexane and tetrahyd...

Abstract

The invention relates to a synthesis method of 3-L-menthoxypropane-1,2-diol. The synthesis method comprises the steps of reacting menthol with 1,3-dihalo-glycerol acetate under a strong alkaline condition at a low temperature to generate 1-halo-2-acetoxy-3-L-menthoxypropane, dropwise adding a small amount of water, heating to hydrolyze acetyl, adding a phase transfer catalyst, carrying out cyclization to obtain 1,2-epoxy-ethyl-3-L-menthoxypropane, and hydrolyzing obtained 1,2-epoxy-ethyl-3-L-menthoxypropane under an acidic condition, so as to obtain 3-L-menthoxypropane-1,2-diol. The synthesis method has the beneficial effects that a synthesis process is easy, reaction conditions are mild, the operation is easy and convenient, the yield is high, and no side product is generated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of chemistry and chemical engineering, in particular to a method for synthesizing 3-L-menthoxypropane-1,2-diol. Background technique [0002] 3-L-menthoxypropane-1,2-diol is a new type of cooling agent, which has a refreshing cool taste and is widely used in medicine, daily chemicals, food and tobacco products. In the preparation of cooling agent 3-L-menthoxypropane-1,2-diol, two methods are mainly used, the first method is to react menthol with benzyl glycidyl ether to obtain intermediate 1-benzyloxy- 3-L-menthoxypropane-2-alcohol, then hydrogenolysis to obtain the product, this route has by-product 1-benzyl in the preparation of intermediate 1-benzyloxy-3-L-menthoxypropane-2-alcohol Oxygen-2-L-menthoxypropane-3-alcohol is not easy to purify. Method 2: Menthol and epichlorohydrin react under Lewis acid catalysis to obtain the intermediate menthoxychloropropanol, which is then cyclized and hydrolyzed to obtain the p...
