Synthesis method

Most of them use plants (such as spinach, etc.) or dried silkworm sand as raw materials to extract chlorophyll. For example, the following method can be used to extract chlorophyll from silkworm sand. Organic solvent extraction: Take clean silkworm sand, mix it into a slurry with more than 70% industrial ethanol, filter out the dark green solution, and then dry it. Another operation is to mix 45 parts of petroleum ether, 15 parts of methanol, and 4 parts of benzene, mix with clean silkworm sand to make a slurry, filter, and wash the filtrate 4 times with water. Add a small amount of sodium sulfate to the organic extract to remove residual moisture, filter, and recover the solvent from the filtrate to obtain chlorophyll. Physical separation: Mix 0.4mol/L dilute sucrose solution and 0.06mol/L potassium phosphate dilute solution (pH 6-7) at a ratio of 1:1 to form a buffer medium. Add about 1L of buffer medium for every 2kg of silkworm sand, mix evenly, filter out the green suspension with multi-layer emery cloth, put it into a low-temperature centrifuge and centrifuge for 5-10 minutes, wash the precipitate with water, and centrifuge again to get the chlorophyll precipitate. Chlorophyll is treated with oxalic acid to obtain magnesium-free pheophytin, and then magnesium is introduced and converted back into chlorophyll. Removal of phytol and magnesium with strong acid results in pheophorbide, and phytol can also be reintroduced. Hydrolysis removes phytol and methanol to obtain chlorophyllin.

Add a small amount of sodium sulfate to the organic extract to remove residual moisture, filter, and recover the solvent from the filtrate to obtain chlorophyll. Physical separation: Mix 0.4mol/L dilute sucrose solution and 0.06mol/L potassium phosphate dilute solution (pH 6-7) at a ratio of 1:1 to form a buffer medium. Add about 1L of buffer medium for every 2kg of silkworm sand, mix evenly, filter out the green suspension with multi-layer emery cloth, put it into a low-temperature centrifuge and centrifuge for 5-10 minutes, wash the precipitate with water, and centrifuge again to get the chlorophyll precipitate.

Purpose

Edible green coloring. Used in pastries, beverages, liqueurs, etc. In fact, the leaves or dried powder of the plant are often used directly. For example, tea powder, mugwort, spinach, chlorella, etc. Added to gum to eliminate bad breath. Chlorophyll is used to color soaps, mineral oils, waxes and essential oils. Derivatives of chlorophyll or chlorophyllin, such as copper chlorophyll [11006-34-1], sodium iron chlorophyllate, sodium copper chlorophyllin, are used as colorants and deodorants in food, candy, beverages, toothpaste, etc. Chlorophyllin derivatives can be used together with the fungicides benzalkonium chloride, halocarban, etc. to formulate smelly cosmetics.
