ConditionsYield
With dmap at 80℃; for 8h; Temperature; Reagent/catalyst;99.45%
Experimental Procedure
Put palmitic anhydride (50g, 0.101mol), vitamin C (17.61g, 0.100mol) and DMAP (0.05g) into a 250mL four-necked flask with reflux and heating device, slowly raise the temperature to 80°C, react for 8 hours, and sample HPLC test showed that vitamin C residue ≤0.5% is qualified, stop heating, add n-hexane (200g) dropwise, drip in 0.5 hours, cool to 5-10, stir for 1 hour, filter, cool at 0-5 The filter cake was washed with hexane 3 times and dried to obtain the product vitamin C palmitate (41.29 g, 0.0994 mol), which was white crystals in appearance, HPLC purity: 99.84%, and molar yield: 99.45%.
