Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of covalent organic framework material preparation, natural product separation and purification, and adsorbent preparation, and particularly relates to a rod-like ionic COF, a preparation method thereof, and application of the rod-like ionic COF in separation and purification of active ingredients of Cistanche. BACKGROUND
[0002] Verbascoside (ACT) is a natural product mainly extracted from phenylethanoid glycosides in Cistanche. ACT has strong biological and pharmacological activities. Studies have shown that ACT has a neuroprotective effect and can effectively repair damaged neurons. In addition, ACT also has effects such as anti-atherosclerosis and inhibition of tumor cell growth, which has attracted great interest in the medical, food and health product fields. However, the content of ACT in Cistanche is very low, and obtaining high-purity ACT is a challenge, so it is very important to develop an effective ACT separation and purification method.
[0003] Most active ingredients of natural products are not resistant to high temperature, acid and alkali, which limits the separation method of the active ingredients. The selection of the ACT separation and purification process depends on many factors, including purity, recovery rate and selectivity. Among them, the adsorbent separation method is considered to be one of the most promising ACT separation and purification technologies due to its advantages of high efficiency, easy regeneration, low energy consumption and simple operation. Adsorbents usually work in two ways, physical adsorption and chemical adsorption. Physical adsorption involves intermolecular forces such as van der Waals forces and electrostatic forces, and is usually carried out at low temperature and high pressure; chemical adsorption involves the formation of chemical bonds between the adsorbed molecules and the adsorbent, which requires a certain activation energy, and the adsorption energy is high and the adsorption process is relatively permanent. Common adsorbents include activated carbon, molecular sieves, silica gel, activated alumina, etc., which have large specific surface area, suitable pore structure and surface structure. However, the specific surface area of the above-mentioned methods is relatively small, the pore size distribution and structure are relatively fixed, the adsorption selectivity is not very high, the adsorption limitation is strong, and the synthesis process is relatively complex.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop an adsorbent with larger specific surface area, adjustable pore distribution and structure, high adsorption selectivity, and simple synthesis process as an adsorption material for ACT. SUMMARY

During the preparation process of the rod-like ionic COF, the morphology and physical properties thereof are affected by ligands, different ligands form different morphological structures, thereby affecting the transmission path of ACT and the number of adsorption sites; only when 1,3,5-tris(4-formylphenyl) benzene and 1,3-diaminoguanidine hydrochloride react, the rod-like structure of the application can be formed; meanwhile, Cl⁻ in the ionic COF exchanges with the phenolic oxygen ion of ACT, directly occupies the position of Cl⁻, and forms a wide hydrogen bond network with the protonated guanidinium and imine bond.

In summary, the material has good application potential and industrialization prospect in the separation and purification of active ingredients of natural products, especially phenylethanoid glycosides from Cistanche.
