Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of surfactant technology, specifically to a glucose-1-O-fatty acid ester, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] One of the processes in reconstituted tobacco production involves concentrating the separated tobacco extract and then recoating it onto the paper-made substrate. The concentrate's main component is sugars, with a concentration exceeding 40%. Its high viscosity makes it difficult for the extract to penetrate the substrate effectively during coating, affecting the coating rate and uniformity. Although commercially available penetrants can improve the penetrability of the coating solution, these are non-tobacco additives and do not comply with regulations. Sugar esters, on the other hand, are permitted additives in tobacco products and comply with regulations.

[0003] Glucose fatty acid esters are novel nonionic surfactants that are nontoxic, low-irritant, and easily degradable. Currently, the literature reports two main synthetic methods for glucose fatty acid esters. The first method involves the direct reaction of glucose with fatty acids or fatty acid methyl esters. This method utilizes bases or enzymes as catalysts, offering the advantage of fewer reaction steps. However, its limitations include low product yields or the presence of significant amounts of diesters or polyesters in the product, making separation difficult. The second method uses tetrabenzyl glucose as a raw material, synthesizing glucose fatty acid esters through esterification and debenzylation reactions. This method yields a single compound, but its limitations include the high cost of tetrabenzyl glucose and the expensive palladium-carbon catalyst, leading to high production costs. These limitations result in the difficulty of industrial-scale production of glucose fatty acid esters, despite their numerous advantages as nonionic surfactants, and the lack of commercially available reagents.

[0004] Therefore, current glucose fatty acid esters suffer from problems such as low product yield, the presence of impurities that are difficult to separate, or high production costs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Given the problem that current glucose fatty acid esters contain impurities that are difficult to separate, the present invention aims to provide a glucose-1-O-fatty acid ester, its preparation method, and its application. The glucose-1-O-fatty acid esters prepared by this method have a high yield and are all monoesters without polyester byproducts. Moreover, the raw materials are inexpensive, the reaction process is simple, and when applied to coating solutions, it improves the permeability of the coating solution in the substrate, thereby improving the coating rate and coating uniformity.

[0094] The structure of glucose-1-O-palmitate was identified using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and its spectral data are as follows: 1H NMR(600 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 5.95 (d, J = 3.6 Hz, 1H), 5.08 (d, J = 5.9 Hz, 1H), 5.03(d, J = 5.5 Hz, 1H), 4.95 (d, J = 4.5 Hz, 1H), 4.51 (t, J = 5.9 Hz, 1H),3.58-3.55 (m, 1H), 3.49-3.42 (m, 3H), 3.35-3.32 (m, 1H), 3.19-3.15 (m, 1H),2.35-2.32 (m, 2H), 1.55-1.52 (m, 2H), 1.28-1.24 (m, 24H), 0.86 (t, J = 6.9Hz, 3H). 13 C NMR (150 MHz, DMSO-d6) 172.46, 92.32, 75.61, 73.48, 71.00, 69.77,60.91, 34.20, 31.77, 29.54, 29.53, 29.49, 29.41, 29.21, 29.19, 28.86, 24.86,22.57, 14.43. The proton NMR spectrum shows that the seven hydrogens at δ 5.95 to 3.55 (including one hydrogen at δ 3.49-3.42) correspond to the hydrogen signals of the glucose unit, while the rest are the hydrogen signals of the palmityl group. The carbon NMR spectrum shows that δ 172.46 is the C=O carbon signal of the ester group, and the six carbons at δ 92.32 to 60.91 are the carbon signals of the glucose unit, while the rest are the carbon signals of the palmityl group.

[0095] Permeability test of glucopalmitate on reconstituted tobacco leaf substrate:

[0096] Dissolve glucose palmitate in the coating solution to prepare a 0.1% test solution. Apply 5 μL of the test solution to the substrate of the reconstituted tobacco leaf. Measure the diffusion diameter after 5 minutes. The results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the average diffusion diameter of the control coating solution was 3 mm, while the average diffusion diameter of the test solution was 4 mm. Furthermore, the penetration mark of the test solution on the back of the substrate was more obvious than that of the coating solution, indicating that the permeability of the coating solution was significantly improved after the addition of glucose palmitate.

[0108] Permeability test of glucostearate on reconstituted tobacco leaf substrate:

[0109] Dissolve glucose stearate in the coating solution to prepare a 0.1% test solution. Apply 5 μL of the test solution to the substrate of the reconstituted tobacco leaf. Measure the diffusion diameter after 5 minutes. The results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the average diffusion diameter of the control coating solution was 3 mm, while the average diffusion diameter of the test solution was 3.5 mm. Furthermore, the penetration mark of the test solution on the back of the substrate was more obvious than that of the coating solution, indicating that the permeability of the coating solution was significantly improved after the addition of glucose stearate.

[0110] The permeability of glucose decanoate, glucose laurate, glucose myristate, glucose palmitate, and glucose stearate prepared using the methods in Examples 1-5 was tested, with distilled water as a blank control. Wetting power of glucose fatty acid esters was determined to evaluate the permeability of the test compounds. The wetting power test was performed according to GB / T11983-2008 "Determination of Wetting Power - Immersion Method," using a fishhook instead of an immersion clamp: a 0.5 g / L solution of glucose fatty acid esters was prepared and maintained at (20±2) °C. A equilibrated standard cotton fabric piece was taken, and a #1 fishhook was hooked into the edge of the fabric piece. The other end of the fishhook was tied with a thread, which was connected to a wire frame. The wire frame immersed the fabric piece in the solution (1-2 cm below the solution surface). A stopwatch was started, and the time was stopped when the fabric piece began to settle. This was repeated 10 times, and the average value was recorded as the settling time. The test results are shown in Table 1 below.

[0111] Table 1

[0112]

[0113] The test data in Table 1 show that the sedimentation time was significantly shortened after the addition of glucose fatty acid ester, indicating that glucose fatty acid ester has wetting and penetrating effects.
