Properties and stability
1. Found in burley tobacco leaves.
Storage method
This product should be kept sealed. Packed in 25kg cardboard drum; during transportation, it must be strictly protected from moisture, heat and sunlight; it should be stored in a cool, dry and ventilated place, away from fire and heat sources.
Synthesis method
1. Use acetophenone, a by-product of cumene production of phenol, as raw material, chlorine it to obtain dichloroacetophenone, then react with dilute alkali and hydrolyze to obtain mandelic acid. 2. Use benzaldehyde as raw material. Dissolve sodium cyanide in water, add benzaldehyde, and slowly add the saturated solution of sodium bisulfite while stirring. When the addition is half done, add crushed ice and separate the precipitated phenylhydroxyacetonitrile layer from the water layer. The water layer was extracted with benzene, and the benzene was evaporated. The residue was combined with the benzene hydroxyacetonitrile layer, hydrochloric acid was added, and hydrolysis was carried out under cooling for 12 hours. Then heat to remove excess water and hydrochloric acid, cool, and filter out the mixture of ammonium chloride and mandelic acid. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness, and the residue was combined with the above solid and washed with cold benzene. It is then extracted with hot benzene, and the extract is cooled, crystallized, filtered, and dried to obtain mandelic acid with a yield of 50-52%. 3. Benzene-glyoxylic acid method. 4. Acetophenone method: prepared by reacting with nitrobenzene under alkali catalysis.
2. Tobacco: BU, 26 .
3. Preparation method:
Mandelonitrile (3): In a reaction bottle equipped with a stirrer and thermometer, add 350mL of water and 100g of sodium cyanide (2.0mol). Stir to dissolve, add 212g (2.0mol) of newly distilled benzaldehyde (2), add about 300mL of saturated sodium bisulfite solution under vigorous stirring, control the reaction temperature at 30~35°C, and finish adding in 20 minutes (ice can be used water bath cooling). After the addition was completed, the reaction was stirred for 0.5 h. After standing, the upper orange-red oily substance was separated to obtain about 220g of crude mandelonitrile (3). Mandelic acid (1): equipped with a stirrer. In the reaction bottle of the thermometer, add 300 mL of concentrated acetic acid, heat to about 60°C, and add 220 g of the above mandelonitrile (3) in batches (note that the reaction should be carried out in a fume hood). After the reaction was stable, the reaction was heated in a boiling water bath for 2 hours. Cool and leave overnight. Suction filter the precipitated solid (containing ammonium chloride). Extract the solid material twice with diethyl ether ① (400mL×2), and concentrate the diethyl ether solution to about 1/3 volume. Cool and a solid precipitates. Filter and dry to obtain 135g of mandelic acid (1). The yield is 44%. Recrystallize with hot water, mp121~123℃. MP118℃ has also been reported. Note: ① It can also be extracted with hot benzene. [1]
Purpose
