Paragraph 0063-0064, (2021/09/01)
The invention provides a preparation method of β - carotene with a high total trans content. Starting from the vitamin A derivative, C20 phosphine salt is obtained through reaction with triphenylphosphine, and the C20 phosphine salt is subjected to condensation reaction under the action IBX high iodine compound and base to obtain β - carotene containing cis-trans, and then the β - carotene with high trans content is obtained under the action of a transition metal loading catalyst. The method avoids the use of a strong oxidizing agent in the traditional process, is environmentally friendly and can reduce the peroxidation of β - carotene, so that the reaction yield is increased, and the transition metal catalyst enables the obtained β - carotene content to be full. Trans increase.
