Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of chemistry and chemical engineering, and relates to a preparation method of isopulegol. The preparation method is characterized in that citronellal is used as raw materials; under the catalysis of anhydrous zinc bromide, a proper quantity of calixarene is added as a cocatalyst; cyclization reaction is performed to generate the isopulegol; zinc bromidecatalyst containing wastewater generated after the quenching reaction of 0.05mol / l of hydrobromic acid water solution is subjected to azeotropic dehydration to prepare anhydrous zinc bromide again tobe applied to cyclization reaction. The method has the advantages that the cyclization efficiency is greatly improved; meanwhile, wastewater and waste salt are greatly reduced; the green synthesis ofthe isopulegol is realized. The operation is simple and convenient; the process design is ingenious; the environment pollution is low; the preparation method is suitable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemistry and chemical engineering, in particular to a method for preparing isopulegol from citronellal. Background technique [0002] Isopulegol is also known as menthol, isopulegol, and its molecular formula is C 10 h 18 O, which exists in mint and orange, is an important intermediate for the synthesis of L-menthol, and is widely used in the preparation of food, soap and cosmetic flavors, and its market demand continues to increase. [0003] At present, the most valuable synthetic route of L-menthol is that R-citronellal is cyclized to obtain isopulegol, followed by hydrogenation to obtain L-menthol. Its chemical formula is as follows: [0004] [0005] The disclosed catalyst for preparing isopulegol from citronellal has Lewis acid such as zinc bromide, zinc chloride, zinc iodide etc.; and some heterogeneous catalysts such as SiO 2 、Al 2 o 3 / SiO 2 , SiO 2 / ZrO 2 , SiO 2 / TiO 2 , mordenite...
