The invention provides a preparation method of high-content alpha-
ethyl linolenate, which comprises the following steps: (1)
ethyl ester preparation: weighing
raw material oil and
ethanol according to a certain proportion, preheating the
raw material oil and
ethanol in a water bath kettle, adding a catalyst, carrying out heat preservation and stirring reaction in an
oil bath kettle, standing for layering, and filtering to obtain
ethyl ester; discharging lower-layer
glycerol to obtain upper-layer
ethyl ester; (2)
urea inclusion; (3)
column chromatography: taking a
chromatographic column, filling the
chromatographic column with a filler, preparing ethyl ester with a certain concentration, filling the
chromatographic column with the prepared ethyl ester, injecting a sample according to a fixed flow rate during filling, and injecting an eluent into the chromatographic column for
elution to obtain further purified alpha-
ethyl linolenate; and (4) molecular
distillation.
Urea inclusion is carried out in a proper proportion, conditions are mild, and extreme environmental conditions such as high temperature and
high pressure are not needed. The price is relatively low, and reutilization can be realized. The used
reagent has little
pollution to the environment, and meanwhile,
urea is a biodegradable substance and does not cause long-term influence on the environment.
