Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of natural product separation, and particularly relates to a method for molecularly imprinting resin capable of programmably separating structurally similar compounds. Background Art

[0002] The composition of natural products is very complex. Each natural product often contains a huge number of active compounds with complex structures, including a certain number of monomeric compounds with similar structures. Research shows that monomeric compounds with different structures have different physiological effects and often different activities, and the effects of some drugs are even opposite. Therefore, it is very necessary to separate the active compounds with similar structures in natural products.

[0003] However, due to the similar chemical structures and physical and chemical properties of structurally similar compounds, their separation is difficult. At the same time, many of the active monomeric compounds in natural products are still heat-sensitive or have large molecular sizes, further increasing the separation difficulty. At present, industrial separation of structurally similar components mainly uses technologies such as rectification, extraction, membrane separation, and adsorption separation. Among them, adsorption separation technology can be carried out under conditions close to normal temperature and pressure, and has the advantages of low energy consumption, no phase change involved, simple process, large processing capacity, and easy operation, and is an ideal separation method. However, traditional adsorption separation generally has problems such as weak molecular recognition ability of adsorbents, low density of functional groups, small adsorption capacity, and slow diffusion in pores, resulting in low separation efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an efficient and environmentally friendly adsorption separation technology to achieve the separation of structurally similar active monomeric compounds in natural products, which is of great significance for enhancing drug efficacy, reducing adverse reactions, and increasing the safety and effectiveness of drug use.

[0039] Test Example 1

[0040] Use the molecularly imprinted resin capable of programmably separating structurally similar compounds prepared in Example 2 to analyze the composition of its functional groups by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and analyze the characteristic peaks of the sample in the range of 4000 - 400 cm -1 -1, and the results are as shown in the appendix Figure 1 shown. At the same time, use field emission scanning electron microscopy to characterize its microscopic morphology, and the results are as shown in the appendix Figure 2 shown. AppendixFigure 1 The infrared spectrum of -1 shows that there are absorption peaks at 3150 - 3500 cm -1 , 2972 cm -1 , 1460 cm -1 , 1385 cm -1 and 1170 cm -1 . The absorption peak at 3150 - 3500 cm -1 is the stretching vibration peak of N - H. The peak at 2972 cm -1 is the stretching vibration peak of - CH3 and - CH2 -. The peak at 1460 cm -1 is the asymmetric bending vibration peak of - CH3. The peak at 1385 cm -1 is the peak formed by the symmetric deformation vibration of the dimethyl group on the isopropyl group. The peak at 1170 cm Figure 2 corresponds to the skeletal vibration peak of the isopropyl group. From the microscopic morphology characterization of Figure 1 and Figure 2 , it can be seen that there are pore structures inside the material, and obvious grafting layers can be observed. From

[0041] In addition, the effects of different dosages of thermosensitive monomers on the volume phase transition temperature (VPTT value) of the programmable separation molecularly imprinted resin were investigated. It was found that when the dosage of the thermosensitive monomer changed, the VPTT value of the molecularly imprinted resin changed significantly. See Figure 3 . At the same time, in order to further study the adsorption behavior of structurally similar compounds on the prepared programmable separation molecularly imprinted resin for structurally similar compounds, the changes in the adsorption amounts of the representative structurally similar compounds quercetin and quercitrin with time during the adsorption process, and the release rates of the representative structurally similar compounds quercetin and quercitrin with temperature change were investigated respectively, so as to reveal the dynamic interaction between the adsorbate and the adsorbent and the programmable release effect. The results are shown in Figure 4 , Figure 5 . From Figure 4 , it can be seen that within the first 90 min, the adsorption amounts of the molecularly imprinted resin for the representative structurally similar compounds quercetin and quercitrin both increased rapidly. At this time, the adsorption capacities of quercetin and quercitrin reached 85% and 87% of the equilibrium value respectively. After 90 min, the growth of the adsorption amounts of the molecularly imprinted resin for quercetin and quercitrin began to slow down. When the time reached 180 min, the adsorption capacity tended to be stable and basically reached the adsorption equilibrium. From Figure 5It can be seen that when the external temperature is higher than the VPTT value of the molecularly imprinted resin, the molecularly imprinted resin mainly releases quercitrin, while when the external temperature becomes lower than the VPTT value of the molecularly imprinted resin, the molecularly imprinted resin mainly releases quercetin. The above results indicate that the prepared molecularly imprinted resin has good adsorption and controlled release properties, and can achieve temperature-controlled programmed separation of representative structurally similar compounds.
