Problems solved by technology

This also makes it difficult to completely distinguish THC from cannabidiol using conventional methods, and it is difficult to completely remove THC from cannabidiol products
Therefore, in order to obtain high-purity cannabidiol, the commonly used extraction methods include carbon dioxide supercritical extraction, nitrogen supercritical extraction, and organic solvent extraction, and combined with heating or ultrasonic operations for mixed extraction, but such commonly used extraction methods Method Due to the complex composition of cannabinoids and many components with similar polarities, the purity of cannabidiol in the final product is not high. Therefore, in order to improve the extraction purity of cannabidiol, relevant research has been further deepened
[0006] The invention patent "A method of extracting cannabidiol from industrial hemp flowers and leaves" (patent application number: 201610674119.6) discloses the process of preparing cannabidiol from industrial hemp as raw material. Although this method can reduce the waste of raw material hemp, Simplify the process flow, but there are still three problems as follows: incomplete decarboxylation of raw materials leads to impure products, large equipment volume, large investment, large floor area, low efficiency, and high cost; the extraction method is a static gap method, which is low in efficiency and difficult Realize large-scale production; THC is completely separated from cannabidiol, and it is difficult to completely remove THC from cannabidiol products

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting and purifying cannabidiol in cannabis sativa, belonging to the field of chemical extraction and purification. The method comprises the following steps:harvesting, drying and crushing cannabis sativa leaves to obtain a clean material for later use; carrying out continuous countercurrent extraction on the clean material by adopting an ethanol solutionto obtain a crude extract; concentrating the crude extract, and conducting winterizing to remove impurities so as to obtain a winterized mixed solution; filtering the winterized mixed solution, heating the solution to 130-150 DEG C, and decarboxylating the solution for 1-2 hours to obtain a decarboxylated solution; carrying out column chromatography on the decarboxylation solution by using an ethanol solution to realize impurity removal, and conducting eluting by using the ethanol solution to obtain an eluent; concentrating the eluent to obtain an extract; supersaturating and dissolving the extract with a solvent, and then carrying out cooling to -30 DEG C to -10 DEG C to obtain a crystal substance; and washing the crystal substance with solvent, draining the crystal substance and then carrying out drying to obtain cannabidiol. According to the method, a decarboxylation degree is complete, the purity of cannabidiol is high, and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is almost not contained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical extraction and purification, in particular to a method for extracting and purifying cannabidiol from cannabis. Background technique [0002] Cannabis scientific name Cannabis, Cannabis genus, also known as hemp, hemp, hemp, mountain silk seedling, jute, has important agricultural and medicinal value. Marijuana contains a toxic component, tetrahydrocannabinol, which can make people hallucinogenic and addictive, and can be used as a drug. It was banned for a long time. [0003] Due to the high economic and medicinal value of cannabis, the raw material cannabis for industrial use is referred to as "industrial hemp". The value of hydrocannabinol may be taken directly as a drug, and it can be legally carried out in large-scale cultivation and industrial development and utilization. [0004] Cannabidiol contained in cannabis is a phenolic compound that has not been isolated from other animals and plants. Canna...
