Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of preparation technology of 3-borneolenyl-2-butanol, specifically to a method for preparing 3-borneolenyl-2-butanol by using 3-borneolenyl-2-butanone as a raw material and simultaneously reducing carbonyl and double bonds under the action of a heterogeneous gold catalyst. Background Technology
[0002] 3-Bornenyl-2-butanol, also known as sandalwood 210, has a strong woody aroma, similar to natural sandalwood, and is widely used in the fragrance formulations of soaps, shampoos, cosmetics, and other daily chemical products. Currently, industrially, 3-bornenyl-2-butanol is prepared by the catalytic hydrogenation of 3-bornenyl-2-butanone, typically using a Cu / Cr catalyst under hydrogen atmosphere. The reaction yields two main results: 1) incomplete reaction, resulting in the formation of products from the reduction of double bonds and carbonyl groups; 2) to increase the degree of reduction, a secondary reduction is performed after reduction with the Cu / Cr catalyst, using reducing agents such as lithium aluminum hydride, aluminum isopropoxide, or sodium borohydride. This complex post-processing and high cost limit its industrial production (CN101125798A). To overcome the shortcomings of the aforementioned technologies, patent CN111298797A invented a copper-aluminum based rare metal catalyst, wherein the rare metal is selected from one or more of manganese oxide, zirconium oxide, and cerium oxide. This catalyst, together with 3-borneolenyl-2-butanone and a solid base, can catalytically hydrogenate to 3-borneolenyl-2-butanol under hydrogen atmosphere, exhibiting high conversion and selectivity. However, this method also has some problems: the reaction process requires the addition of a base for neutralization or washing, increasing the difficulty of post-processing, which is not addressed in this paper; the cyclic stability of the catalyst is also unknown.
[0003] To address the aforementioned challenges, we have invented a novel method for preparing 3-borneolenyl-2-butanol. This method uses 3-borneolenyl-2-butanone as a raw material, reacting it under a heterogeneous gold catalyst and a hydrogen atmosphere at 60-150°C for 0.2-24 h, simultaneously reducing the carbonyl group and double bond to obtain 3-borneolenyl-2-butanol. The conversion rate of the raw material 3-borneolenyl-2-butanone is >95%, and the selectivity of 3-borneolenyl-2-butanol is >95%. This invention's system exhibits high catalyst activity, good stability, and good product selectivity; it is simple to operate, safe, environmentally friendly, and requires minimal post-processing, making it highly valuable for industrial applications. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address some prominent issues currently faced in the industrial preparation of 3-borneolenyl-2-butanol, we have invented a novel method for its preparation.
