Measurement and Correlation of Liquid−Liquid Equilibria for the Ternary Systems of Water + D‑Fructose + 1‑Butanol, Water + D‑Glucose + 1‑Butanol, and Water + D‑Galactose + 1‑Butanol at (288.2, 303.2 and 318.2) K Tiantian Ye, Haibin Qu, and Xingchu Gong* Pharmaceutical Informatics Institute, College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310058, P. R. China ABSTRACT: The liquid−liquid equilibrium (LLE) data of ternary systems of water + D-fructose + 1-butanol, water + D-glucose + 1-butanol, and water + D-galactose + 1-butanol were determined at three temperatures (288.2, 303.2, and 318.2 K) and atmospheric condition. The distribution coefficients of the monosaccharides were lower than 0.05. For all the three saccharides, their content in the organic-rich phase increased as their content in the aqueous phase increased. The experimental tie-line data were fitted using the Othmer−Tobias equation. The saccharide universal quasichemical functional-group activity coefficient (S-UNIFAC) model was used to predict the LLE data with all the average absolute deviations (AAD) values higher than 0.013. The modified universal quasichemical model was then used to correlate the LLE data. The correlation results agreed better with experimental data than the prediction results obtained with S-UNIFAC. In the production of traditional Chinese medicines, 1-butanol is a promising extractant used to separate active compounds and saccharides in aqueous herbal extracts.

1. INTRODUCTION Traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) are attracting more and more attention in the treatment of complex diseases. On most occasions, multiple active compounds in a TCM preparation can act on multiple targets. At present many TCMs are made from medicinal herbs by extraction, concentration, and drying, but without any purification process. Accordingly, these TCM preparations usually contain low contents of active compounds. The patients have to take large amounts of these TCM preparations, which results in poor patient compliance. Therefore, the separation and the purification of active compounds in TCM extracts are required. 1-Butanol is one of the extractants widely used in the pharmaceutical industry.1,2 Many botanical active compounds have large distribution coefficients when 1-butanol is used as the extractant. For example, distribution coefficients of salvianolic acid B, lithospermic acid, rosmarinic acid, and salvianolic acid A can be higher than 100.3 Distribution coefficients of baicalin,4 didymin,5 and clinopodiside A5 can be higher than 5. In a previous work, 1-butanol was found to separate active compounds and saccharides in Salvia miltiorrhiza extracts efficiently.6 When Salvia miltiorrhiza extracts were extracted with 1-butanol, total phenolic compound purity increased from 17.6% to at least 48.3%.6 However, when ethanol precipitation was used to treat Salvia miltiorrhiza extracts, total phenolic compound purity increased from 17.6% to at most 29.8%.6 The water extracts of medicinal herbs usually contain large amounts of saccharides,7 such as D-fructose, D-glucose, and sucrose. These saccharides are not considered as active compounds of TCM preparations. © 2017 American Chemical Society

The separation of active compounds and saccharides can dramatically improve active compound purity in dry matter. However, the equilibrium data of systems containing water, saccharides, and 1-butanol are scarce. In this work, the LLE results of the ternary systems of water + D-fructose + 1-butanol, water + D-glucose + 1-butanol, and water + D-galactose + 1-butanol were measured at T = (288.2, 303.2 and 318.2) K under atmospheric pressure. The obtained tie-line data were fitted using the Othmer−Tobias equation.8−10 The experimental data were predicted using the saccharide universal quasichemical functional-group activity coefficient (S-UNIFAC) model11−13 and correlated using the modified universal quasichemical (UNIQUAC) model.14

to a thermostat water bath (THD-1008 W, Ningbo Tianheng Instrument Factory). The mixtures composed of water-monosaccharide (D-fructose, D-glucose, or D-galactose)−1-butanol were added into jacketed glass cells with known weights. After agitating for at least 8 h, the ternary mixtures were allowed to settle for at least 10 h at a controlled temperature of 288.2, 303.2, or 318.2 K. The uncertainty of equilibrium temperature was ±0.5 K. The organic phase and aqueous phase were separated with a separatory funnel. The weight contents of monosaccharides in upper phase and lower phase then were determined by gravimetric method using an electronic balance (AB204-N, Mettler Toledo). Most of the solvents in the samples were evaporated at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. An electric fan (ZJ01−192, Taizhou Jiaojiang Zhongjie Electric Factory) was used to make the evaporation faster. Then, the samples were diluted with water and placed in a vacuum oven (DZF-6050, Shanghai Jing Hong Laboratory Instrument Co., Ltd.) heating at 60 °C until constant mass was reached. Finally, the dried samples were weighed to obtain the monosaccharide weights. To accurately determine the weight contents of monosaccharides in the upper phase, the weights of upper phase samples were no less than 1.56 g. The water contents of the two phases were measured with the Karl Fischer titration method using a titrator (870 KF Titrino plus, Metrohm).15,16 All the experiments were repeated three times. Experimental data of water and monosaccharides were checked by mass balance with eq 1. DOMi % =

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1. Experimental LLE Data. The experimental LLE data of the ternary systems of water + monosaccharide (D-fructose, D-glucose, or D-galactose) + 1-butanol at 288.2, 303.2, and 318.2 K under atmospheric pressure were listed in Tables 2−4. Wowater and Wwwater are the water mass fractions in organic-rich and water-rich phases, respectively. Wosugar and Wwsugar are the monosaccharide mass fractions in organic-rich and water-rich phases, respectively. Wowater and Wwwater values of binary system water + 1-butanol were close to literature data.17−20 The mass fractions of monosaccharides in the water-rich phase were remarkably higher

than those in the organic-rich phase. Saccharide content in the organic-rich phase increased as its content in the water-rich phase increased. The saccharide content in the organic-rich phase was lower than 0.02 in all the experiments. Distribution coefficients for monosaccharides (D = Wosugar/Wwsugar) were calculated. The experimental distribution coefficients for each system were presented in Tables 2−4. In most cases, the distribution coefficients increased as equilibrium temperature increased. The distribution coefficients also increased when monosaccharide mass fraction in the equilibrium systems decreased at most occasions. Poor extraction ability of 1-butanol was observed 2393

where x is mole fraction; γ is the activity coefficient; subscript i refers to component i in ternary systems of water−monosaccharide−1-butanol; superscripts o and w stand for organicrich phase and water-rich phase, respectively. The activity coefficients of water, 1-butanol, D-fructose, D-glucose, and 11 D-galactose were calculated using the S-UNIFAC model. In S-UNIFAC model, the activity coefficient γ is composed of a combinatorial term γC and a residual term γR, as shown in eq 4.

4. CONCLUSIONS The experimental LLE data of ternary systems composed of water + monosaccharide (D-fructose, D-glucose, or D-galactose) + 1-butanol were measured at 288.2, 303.2, and 318.2 K under atmospheric pressure. The mass fractions of monosaccharides in the organic-rich phase were lower than those in the waterrich phase. Saccharide content in the organic-rich phase increased with the rise of its content in the water-rich phase. In all the experiments, saccharide content in the organicrich phase was less than 0.02. The distribution coefficients of monosaccharides were lower than 0.05. The Othmer− Tobias equation fitted well with experimental results. The S-UNIFAC method was used to predict the LLE values, but remarkable deviations between experimental results and

calculation results were observed. The modified UNIQUAC model was used to correlate the experiments results with some of the interaction parameters fitted in this work. The correlation results were slightly better than the prediction results. In summary, D-glucose, D-fructose, and D-galactose dissolved in aqueous solution can hardly be extracted using 1-butanol as the extractant. For the production of TCMs, 1-butanol can be a potential extractant to separate active compounds and saccharides in the aqueous extracts of medicinal
