The invention discloses a peach
ketone synthesis method, which relates to the technical field of essence and perfume synthesis, and comprises the following steps: adding
cyclopentanone and glacial
acetic acid into a reaction container, starting stirring, adding
manganese acetate (II) and
cobalt acetate (II), and then adding
acetic anhydride; introducing dried air below the liquid level, heating to 80-100 DEG C, dropwise adding D-
limonene, and carrying out a heat preservation reaction after dropwise adding is finished; gC monitors the reaction endpoint, and the reaction is stopped when the product purity of the reaction liquid is not increased any more; after the reaction is finished, filtering, carrying out reduced pressure
distillation to recover
cyclopentanone, glacial
acetic acid and unreacted D-
limonene, after the
recovery is finished, adding
methanol and n-
heptane into kettle liquid, carrying out
water extraction, washing and liquid separation, washing an organic phase with a
sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution, carrying out reduced pressure
distillation on the organic phase to recover n-
heptane, and after the
recovery is finished, obtaining a peach
ketone crude product; and carrying out crude drawing and rectification on the peach
ketone crude product to obtain a peach ketone finished product. The method has the advantages of mild
reaction conditions, low
safety risk and few three wastes, and can obtain a high-purity peach ketone finished product.
