Abstract

The invention relates to a method for synthesizing theanine, which comprises the following steps: aminating L-N-acyl glutamic acid-gamma-ester in 70-percent ethylamine aqueous solution to obtain L-N-acyltheanine; hydrolyzing the L-N-acyltheanine by adopting L-aminoacylase to remove the acyl group of the L-N-acyltheanine; and performing separation in ethanol aqueous solution to obtain high-quality L-theanine. The method combines the advantages of industrialized acyl hydrolyzation by the L-aminoacylase, uses cheap acyl group as a protective group, and uses the L-aminoacylase to hydrolyze the acyl group after reaction with the ethylamine aqueous solution to obtain the L-theanine. The method has the characteristics of low raw material price, low production cost, high selectivity, high reaction speed and high yield. The used raw materials and reagents are suitable for industrial production, the operation process is simple, and the product quality can be ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the synthetic method of theanine. Background technique [0002] Theanine (L-Theanine) is a unique amino acid in tea, accounting for 50% of amino acids, and its structural formula is: CH 3 CH 2 NHCOCH 2 CH 2 CH(NH 2 )COOH. It is the most important taste substance in tea. Theanine is a safe, non-toxic, natural food additive with multiple physiological functions. In foreign countries, it has been widely used in food such as beverages, baked snacks, frozen snacks, etc., but the application of theanine in the food field in China is still blank. Japan approved L-theanine as a food additive in 1964, and the U.S. FDA recognized L-theanine as a generally recognized safe substance in 1985. Recent animal and human experiments have shown (Ling Guanting, L-theanine and its physiological functions, food and oils. 2003.5, 46-49): L-theanine is a safe, effective, and no side effects of stimulation enhancer , is an excellent su...
