Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing canthaxanthin through oxidation of beta-carotene. The method comprises the steps as follows: beta-carotene is dissolved in an organic solvent and oxidized to canthaxanthin with an oxidizing agent capable of producing oxygen atoms under the action of an allyl oxidation catalyst shown in a compound I and a cocatalyst capable of producing iodine anions.The method has the benefits as follows: halate waste difficult to treat is not produced and the method has the advantages of being green, environmentally friendly and high in yield.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of cantharidin, in particular to a method for preparing cantharidin by oxidation of β-carotene. Background technique [0002] Cantharidin is a kind of carotenoid, and natural cantharidin exists in crustaceans, fish, algae, eggs, blood, and liver. In 1950, Roche first synthesized cantharidin and added cantharidin to chicken feed, and found that the presence of cantharidin in egg yolks can make egg yolks produce an orange-red color that consumers like. In 1984, FDA and WHO approved cantharidin as a food additive and formulated quality standards. According to pharmacological studies in recent years, it has been found that cantharidin has pharmacological effects such as anti-oxidation and improving blood lipid changes. At present, there are three main methods for preparing canthaxanthin: total chemical synthesis, microbial culture and fermentation, and β-carotene oxidation. Among them, the β-carotene oxidati...
