The invention discloses
vanillyl butyl ether and a synthesis method thereof, and relates to the technical field of synthesis of
vanillyl butyl ether.The synthesis method of
vanillyl butyl ether comprises the following steps that S1,
vanillyl alcohol is prepared; s2, adding
vanillyl alcohol prepared in the step S1, n-butyl
alcohol and a catalyst into a reaction kettle, and uniformly stirring to react, so as to obtain a
mixed solution after the reaction is completed; s3, filtering the
mixed solution prepared in S2, pretreating filtrate, and extracting an organic phase in the filtrate; s4, carrying out primary reduced pressure
distillation on the organic phase extracted in S3 to obtain a vanillyl butyl
ether crude product and n-butyl
alcohol, then recovering n-butyl
alcohol, and carrying out secondary reduced pressure
distillation on the vanillyl butyl
ether crude product to obtain vanillyl butyl
ether; the whole synthesis method is low in
raw material cost, mild in reaction condition, simple in process and small in
wastewater generation amount, recycling of the catalyst and the
solvent is achieved, the prepared vanillyl butyl ether is large in yield and high in purity, a brand new solution is provided for efficient and
green production of the vanillyl butyl ether, and industrial popularization is facilitated.
