Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chemical synthesis technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing an apoester intermediate. Background Technology

[0002] Apocarboxylate, also known as β-apo-8'-carotene ethyl ester, apocarotene ethyl ester, natural orange No. 7, etc., has the chemical formula C. 32 H 44 O2, molecular weight 460.70, CAS number 1109-11-1, melting point 134-136℃, density 1.0±0.1g / cm³ 3 It appears as a dark purple crystalline solid. The recommended storage temperature is -20℃. It is sensitive to light and air, and it is recommended to store it in an inert gas container. Apoester is a chemically synthesized carotenoid compound with oxygen-containing functional groups. It is one of the apocarotenoids, containing 30 unsaturated conjugated carbon chains, and is a fat-soluble yellow pigment.

[0003] There are three main routes for the synthesis of aporyl ester: 1) the C25+C2+C3 route; 2) the C10+C20 route; and 3) the C15+C10+C5 route. For route 1, vinyl ethyl ether is used as the raw material for the C2 synthesis. However, vinyl ethyl ether is difficult to store and poses a significant risk in large-scale production. For route 2, although the C20 phosphine salt can be isolated from the vitamin A synthesis system, the C10 synthesis process is lengthy, involves numerous raw materials and auxiliary materials, generates substantial waste, and is costly. Therefore, the C15+C10+C5 route is primarily used in industrial production. Among these, the C10 dialdehyde, as a key intermediate in the synthesis of aporyl ester, is crucial.

[0004] Deca-dialdehyde, chemically named 2,7-dimethyl-2,4,6-octtrien-1,8-dialdehyde, or C10 dialdehyde for short, is a crucial intermediate in the synthesis of carotenoids. Chinese patent CN1918099A uses an aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution in the elimination reaction for the synthesis of C10 dialdehyde, with the reaction temperature set at 70-90℃. As is well known, sodium bicarbonate decomposes easily upon heating, leading to a continuous decrease in the catalytic efficiency of the catalyst in the system. Furthermore, the organic phase requires additional water washing to remove water-soluble impurities, increasing wastewater generation and production costs. In the method for preparing C10 dialdehyde via enol ether condensation, the elimination reaction is a critical step. However, the use of strong bases in known routes places high demands on equipment and reduces the product quality of C10 dialdehyde, while the use of weak bases leads to increased waste. Therefore, developing a green, environmentally friendly, high-quality, and low-cost production process is essential for the synthesis of deca-C10 dialdehyde. Summary of the Invention
