Introduction | stigmasterol is a natural phytosterol. Natural Phytosterols are similar in structure to animal sterols such as cholesterol. They are an active ingredient in plants and exist in various vegetable oils. They are widely used in medicine, food, cosmetics and other industries. |
phytosterol | stigmasterol is a phytosterol, one of the major sterols in soybean oil. Stigmasterol is also found in Tetrandrine, cortex phellodendri, poisonous lentils and potatoes, as well as in marine phytoplankton, seawater and marine sediments. |
method for extracting stigmasterol from plants | at present, the methods for extracting stigmasterol from mixed phytosterols at home and abroad mainly include: solvent method and solvent crystallization method. The solubility difference of each component in the mixed phytosterol was directly used to select the appropriate organic solvent for multi-step extraction and recrystallization separation; the organic acid and the alcohol hydroxyl group contained in the mixed phytosterol are esterified to generate the corresponding phytosterol derivative, which increases the difference of physical properties, and then the separation is carried out by recrystallization and other methods; the halogen addition reaction takes place by using the double bond on the sterol ring and the branched chain, so that the difference of the physical parameters of the generated derivative becomes large, and then the appropriate organic solvent is selected for extraction and recrystallization separation. 1, solvent method, using soybean mixed plant Street alcohol as raw material, by adjusting the solid-liquid ratio and crystallization temperature, it is proved that after 2-3 step crystallization, A purity of> 60% betherol can be obtained. Through 5 A 4 grade crystallization, the purity can reach more than 85%. 2. Solvent crystallization The Process comparison of separating mixed phytosterols from solvent crystallization shows that the presence of a small amount of water can not only greatly improve the yield of sterols, stigmasterol selectivity can also be improved in certain ranges, which helps to obtain high purity stigmasterol and sitosterol products. 2.1 multistage fractional crystallization. The reaction steps of the method are as follows: in the first step, the solvent anhydrous ethanol, n-propanol or n-Butanol is added to the plant sterol, and the temperature is raised to dissolve, and then the temperature is slowly lowered to crystallize and filtered, the obtained crystalline matter is subjected to the above concentration step 0 to 1 times, followed by centrifugal separation and vacuum drying. In the second step, a separation solvent is added to the phytosterol concentrate obtained in the first step, and the mixture is dissolved by heating up, then, the crystals were slowly cooled and filtered, and the obtained crystals were subjected to the above separation step 2 to 3 times. The invention greatly improves the purity and yield of stigmasterol through two separate steps of concentration and separation and purification of raw materials, and has no pollution to the environment. 2.2 polar solvent crystallization method stigmasterol was first enriched to 90% with non-polar solvent, and then crystallized with polar solvent to obtain high purity stigmasterol. The process is to dissolve the raw material in toluene to prepare 25% solution, cooled to 25 ° C., constant temperature 1H, crystallization, repeated 6 times to obtain 92% purity stigmasterol. When the purity of stigmasterol is more than 90%, it can no longer be enriched by crystallization method. At this time, the obtained stigmasterol is dissolved in acetone under anhydrous condition, the ratio is 1: 20, and it is cooled slowly, crystallization, the purity can be increased to 98%. 2.3 organic solvent crystallization method with mixed phytosterols as raw materials, the separation and crystallization characteristics of stigmasterol in toluene, toluene methanol and toluene acetone were studied. The results showed that the content of stigmasterol was more than 70% and the total yield of stigmasterol was more than 50% with toluene (90%) and acetone (10%) as mixed solvent after 5 times of crystallization. Gao Yuying, et al, enriched stigmasterol from soybean mixed phytosterol with n-butanol as solvent, solid-liquid ratio 1:4, and placed in constant temperature water bath between 20 ℃ and 30 ℃, crystallization 1~2h after constant temperature filtration or centrifugation, 4~5 grade crystallization to obtain more than 85% of the content of stigmasterol. |
preparation method | mixed phytosterols is an important research topic in the large-scale production of single-component high-purity phytosterols, the separation and purification of mixed phytosterols can provide a relatively low cost for the production of steroidal drugs. Common extraction and separation methods are the following ways: 1 with ethyl acetate as extraction agent, soybean oil as raw material, using ultrasonic assisted extraction of soybean oil stigmasterol, on the basis of single factor experiment, the extraction process was optimized by orthogonal test L9(34). The results showed that the optimum extraction conditions of stigmasterol from soybean oil were as follows: Ultrasonic temperature 50 ℃, Ultrasonic, ultrasonic time 40min and liquid material ratio 19mL/g. Under the optimal conditions, the extraction rate of stigmasterol was the highest, reaching 34.15%. 2. Due to the extremely similar structure, it is a difficult and tedious task to separate and remove β-sitosterol, rapeseed sterol and campesterol from phytosterols to obtain high purity monosomal stigmasterol. In 1906, Windaus and Haith proposed the use of a chemical reaction of brominated acetates to achieve the enrichment of stigmasterol. Stigmasterol was refluxed in acetic anhydride to produce stigmasterol acetate. Then bromination with Excess bromine in dichloropropene to produce 5,6,22, 23-tetrabromostigmasterol acetate and 5, 6-dibromo β-sitosterol acetate, these two substances are slightly soluble or relatively soluble. Stigmasterol acetyl tetrabromide can be crystallized in ethanol, treated with zinc powder and then saponified, namely debromination and deacetylation treatment, so that stigmasterol regeneration. Finally, pure stigmasterol can be obtained by crystallization in acetone, so as to achieve the purpose of separation. references (1) solvent crystallization process comparison of stigmasterol separation and refining Guizhou chemical 2012.06(3)26-29 (2) research progress on extraction of stigmasterol from mixed phytosterols Yunnan chemical 2008.10(5)66-69 |
