Properties and stability
Caffeine can be generated after methylation at position 1, which has weak stimulation of the central nervous system, cardiotonic and diuretic effects.
Storage method
Sealed packaging in non-toxic plastic bags or glass bottles. Store in a cool and dry place.
Synthesis method
1. Stir and heat formamide to 170°C, add 4-amino-5-carboxamidoureazine, raise the temperature to 180-185°C, react for half an hour and then cool to 60°C, centrifuge and spin dry, add water to wash, Get xanthine. Dissolve it in sodium hydroxide solution, raise the temperature to 95°C, add activated carbon, stir for half an hour, let it stand for half an hour, and filter. Add the filtrate dropwise to dimethyl sulfate, control the pH to 8.2-8.5, react at 35-38°C, complete the addition, stir for 15 minutes, cool to 28°C, adjust the pH to 9, let stand for 4 hours, spin dry, and wash with water to obtain Theobromine.
2.Extracted from camellia leaves or stems, cocoa fruits or husks, and cola seeds with water or ethanolIsolated and refined.
Purpose
1. Can be used as a bittering agent, used in beverages or as a food additive.
