Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、β−フェニルエチルアルコールの精製方法に関するものである。更に詳しくは、本発明は、複雑な装置や操作を要することなく、単純な操作のみで、かつ効率的に、粗製β−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルから異臭成分を選択的に分離除去し、香料用の優れた香気を有する高純度β−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルを得ることができ、かつ工程中で使用した溶媒を経済的に使用できるという特徴を有するβ−フェニルエチルアルコールの精製方法に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
β−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルはバラ系香料として、洗浄剤、化粧品等に広く使用されている価値ある物質であり、その使用に際しては高純度でかつ香気のすぐれた製品が要求される。一般に、香料成分は本来の香気に影響を及ぼす不純物が微量でも存在すると製品価値が著しく減少するので、その精製法には特に注意が払われている。これまでに報告されているβ−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルの精製法としては、β−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルをホウ酸又は有機酸エステルに誘導して精製する方法、不純物をシリカゲルに吸着させて精製する方法、高段数の精留塔を用いて精製する方法などがある。しかしながら、これらの方法にはそれぞれ欠点があり、工業的手法としては問題点を有している。すなわちエステル化法ではβ−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルのエステル化工程及びエステルからβ−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルを遊離させる加水分解工程が必要であり、更に酸を循環使用しなければならないなど、経済的に不利である。不純物を吸着させる方法では精製効果が小さく、更にシリカゲルを再生して使用する点には問題がある。蒸留法では高段数の精留塔を用いても、沸点を近似する成分や共沸成分が存在すると満足できる品質のβ−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルを得ることは困難である。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
かかる現状において、本発明が解決しようとする課題は、複雑な装置や操作を要することなく、単純な操作のみで、かつ効率的に、粗製β−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルから異臭成分を選択的に分離除去し、香料用の優れた香気を有する高純度β−フェニルエチルアルコ−ルを得ることができ、かつ工程中で使用した高価な抽出溶媒(A)をリサイクルすることで経済的に使用できるという特徴を有するβ−フェニルエチルアルコールの精製方法を提供する点に存するものである。

抽出工程:抽出蒸留工程で使用した後の抽出溶媒(A)を、別の抽出溶媒(B)を用いて抽出することにより精製する工程であって、別の抽出溶媒(B)がベンゼン、トルエン及び/又はキシレンを含む芳香族油である工程
【0005】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明における原料である粗製β−フェニルエチルアルコールとしては、たとえば酸化スチレンの水素還元による方法、ベンゼンと酸化エチレンとの反応による方法、フェニル酢酸の水素還元による方法及び芳香族炭化水素化合物の酸化反応による方法などから得られるものを用いることができる。
【0006】
本発明の抽出蒸留工程は、粗製β−フェニルエチルアルコールを、抽出溶媒(A)を用いて抽出蒸留する工程であって、抽出溶媒は水と1,2−プロパンジオールとの混合比が1:9〜7:3である混合液であり、減圧下、温度50〜200℃、還流比0.1〜50の条件で抽出蒸留を行い、塔頂より揮発性の高い抽出蒸留溶媒(A)と異臭を有する不純物が留出し、塔底より精製されたβ−フェニルエチルアルコールを取り出す工程である。
