Synthesis method
1. Methylnaphthalene is obtained by oxidation of chromic anhydride. Dissolve 2-methylnaphthalene in glacial acetic acid, stir and cool to below 40°C, slowly add a mixture of chromic anhydride and an equal amount of water to maintain the temperature at 35-40°C. After the addition, keep the reaction mixture at 40°C for 0.5h, raise the temperature to 70°C and keep it for 45min, then raise the temperature to 85°C and keep it for 15min. Pour the reactant into a large amount of water, and precipitate 2-menaquinone under constant stirring. Filter, wash the filter cake with water repeatedly until the aqueous solution has no sour taste, and filter to dryness to obtain 2-menaquinone. The yield is 51%. Sodium dichromate can also be used for 2-methylnaphthalene; the oxidation yield of potassium dichromate is roughly the same.
2. 2-methylnaphthohydroquinone is obtained by cyclization of toluoquinone and butadiene, and then oxidized with chromic acid. Add toluoquinone to glacial acetic acid to dissolve, and pass in butadiene until the required amount is reached below 20°C. After being sealed and left to stand for 20 hours, heat to release the remaining butadiene, continue to heat to about 110°C and reflux for 3 hours, and then distill under reduced pressure to recover about 30% of glacial acetic acid. Then cool to below 40°C, slowly add a mixture of chromic acid and an equal amount of water to keep the temperature at 65-70°C, complete the addition, and keep it at 70-80°C for 1 hour to generate menadione.
Purpose
For biochemical research.
Vitamin K3 can be obtained by adding this product to sodium bisulfite.
