The invention relates to the technical field of
polysaccharide modification, in particular to
dehydroabietic acid locust bean gum ester and a preparation method and application thereof.Purified
locust bean gum and
dehydroabietic acid acyl chloride serve as raw materials,
pyridine serves as a catalyst, an acid-binding agent and a
solvent at the same time, heating reaction is conducted under the protective
atmosphere, ester is generated, and the
dehydroabietic acid locust bean gum ester is obtained. After the reaction is finished, carrying out first
centrifugation, and collecting the precipitate for the first time to obtain a first product; performing Soxhlet extraction on the first product, and
drying to obtain dehydroabietic acid
locust bean gum ester insoluble in
pyridine; adding the centrifugate after the first
centrifugation into a
mixed solution containing
methanol and water, precipitating, carrying out second
centrifugation, and then collecting the precipitate for the second time to obtain a second product; and carrying out Soxhlet extraction on the second product, and
drying to obtain the dehydroabietic acid
locust bean gum ester dissolved in
pyridine. The esterification product obtained by the invention has amphipathy, and the raw materials
locust bean gum and dehydroabietic acid are natural sources, so that the esterification product has good
biocompatibility and safety.
