Description

本発明は、親水性溶媒に透明に溶解する柑橘精油精製物の製造方法、該製造方法によって製造された柑橘精油精製物、および該柑橘精油精製物を含有する香料組成物に関する。   The present invention relates to a method for producing a purified citrus essential oil that is transparently dissolved in a hydrophilic solvent, a purified citrus oil produced by the production method, and a fragrance composition containing the purified citrus essential oil.

柑橘は、フレッシュでフルーティーな香気を有し、多くの人から好まれるため、幅広く飲食品に使用されている。特に、柑橘果皮に重要な香気成分が存在することが知られており、この果皮から柑橘の香気を連想させる果皮油などの柑橘精油を採取することができる。   Citrus has a fresh and fruity aroma and is popular with many people, so it is widely used in food and drink. In particular, it is known that an important fragrance component exists in citrus peel, and citrus essential oil such as peel oil reminiscent of citrus fragrance can be collected from the peel.

柑橘精油は飲食品に柑橘様の香味付けや風味付けを行うために重要な素材であり、香味付けや風味付けに使用する際には、使用する飲食品に溶解しやすい溶媒で希釈し、使用されている。水分含有量の高い飲食品に対して使用する場合には、親水性溶媒、具体的には含水アルコール、プロピレングリコール、グリセリンなどが挙げられるが、これらの溶媒で希釈して使用されるのが一般的である。しかし、柑橘精油はこれらの親水性溶媒には溶解しにくい成分を多く含有し、透明に溶解しにくいことが知られている。そこで、溶解性を改善するために、親水性溶媒に溶解しにくい成分を除去するための柑橘精油の加工が広く行われている。親水性溶媒に溶解しにくい成分の多くはテルペン炭化水素であることから、これらの操作は一般的にテルペンレス化と称される。   Citrus essential oil is an important material for citrus-like flavoring and flavoring of foods and drinks. When used for flavoring and flavoring, it is diluted with a solvent that is easily dissolved in the foods and drinks used. Has been. When used for foods and drinks with a high water content, hydrophilic solvents, specifically hydrous alcohol, propylene glycol, glycerin, etc., can be mentioned, but it is generally diluted with these solvents and used. Is. However, it is known that citrus essential oil contains many components that are difficult to dissolve in these hydrophilic solvents and is difficult to dissolve transparently. Thus, in order to improve solubility, citrus essential oil is widely processed to remove components that are difficult to dissolve in hydrophilic solvents. Since many of the components that are difficult to dissolve in the hydrophilic solvent are terpene hydrocarbons, these operations are generally referred to as terpeneless.

テルペンレス化の方法として工業的に広く行われているのは、ウォッシングと呼ばれる、柑橘精油を含水アルコールで抽出する工程と、フォールディングと呼ばれる、減圧蒸留でモノテルペン炭化水素を除去する工程である。しかし、ウォッシングは溶媒が含水アルコールに限定されること、香気成分の多くは含水アルコール層よりもテルペン炭化水素層に分配されるため、抽出効率が悪く香気強度が限定されるという欠点がある。また、フォールディングは、テルペン炭化水素の除去率を高くしようとすると、加熱温度が高くなり、熱ダメージによる香気の劣化を引き起こす。そのため、テルペン炭化水素含有量を10%まで低下させるのが限界とされており(非特許文献1)、このような方法で調製したテルペンレスオイルは親水性溶媒には懸濁液となって透明に溶解しない。そのため、他のテルペンレス化の手法と組み合わせなければならない。   Widely used industrially as a terpene-less method is a step called washing, which extracts a citrus essential oil with hydrous alcohol, and a step called folding, which removes monoterpene hydrocarbons by vacuum distillation. However, washing has the disadvantage that the solvent is limited to hydrous alcohol, and most of the fragrance component is distributed to the terpene hydrocarbon layer rather than the hydrous alcohol layer, so that extraction efficiency is poor and the fragrance intensity is limited. Further, in the folding, when the removal rate of the terpene hydrocarbon is increased, the heating temperature is increased, and the fragrance is deteriorated due to thermal damage. Therefore, the limit is to reduce the terpene hydrocarbon content to 10% (Non-Patent Document 1), and the terpeneless oil prepared by such a method is a transparent suspension in a hydrophilic solvent. Does not dissolve. Therefore, it must be combined with other terpene-less methods.

この他に、炭化水素系溶媒とアルコール系溶媒を用いた液/液向流多段抽出による方法が知られている。この方法はテルペン炭化水素の含有量をほぼゼロにすることが可能であるが、引火性の高い溶媒を大量に使用するため、安全性の問題により工業的規模での実施には困難を伴う。また、吸着剤を用いたクロマトグラフィーによる方法が知られているが、吸着剤や溶媒を大量に使用するため、工業的規模での実施はコストの問題がある。   In addition, a method by liquid / liquid countercurrent multistage extraction using a hydrocarbon solvent and an alcohol solvent is known. Although this method can reduce the content of terpene hydrocarbons to almost zero, since a large amount of highly flammable solvent is used, it is difficult to implement on an industrial scale due to safety issues. Further, a method by chromatography using an adsorbent is known, but since an adsorbent and a solvent are used in large quantities, implementation on an industrial scale has a problem of cost.

また、柑橘精油のテルペンレス化の他の方法としては、テルペン系炭化水素含有天然精油(特に柑橘精油)を含水アルコールで処理し、含水アルコール層を該含水アルコール層と難混和性乃至非混和性の低沸点炭化水素溶媒でさらに抽出処理をして該低沸点炭化水素溶媒層を採取し、得られた該溶媒層から溶媒を除去することにより脱テルペン化精油を得る方法、(特許文献1)天然精油のサイクロデキストリン包接化合物を溶媒抽出することによりテルペンレス精油を得る方法、(特許文献2)シトラスオイルをプロピレングリコールと炭化水素数1〜4のアルカノールとの混合物で処理する方法(特許文献3)などが挙げられる。しかしながらこれらの方法は工業的に煩雑であるなどの欠点があった。   Further, as another method for making citrus essential oil terpeneless, terpene hydrocarbon-containing natural essential oil (especially citrus essential oil) is treated with hydrous alcohol, and the hydrous alcohol layer is hardly miscible or immiscible with the hydrous alcohol layer. A method for obtaining a deterpened essential oil by further extracting with a low-boiling point hydrocarbon solvent, collecting the low-boiling point hydrocarbon solvent layer, and removing the solvent from the obtained solvent layer (Patent Document 1) Method of obtaining terpeneless essential oil by solvent extraction of cyclodextrin inclusion compound of natural essential oil, (Patent Document 2) Method of treating citrus oil with a mixture of propylene glycol and alkanol having 1 to 4 hydrocarbons (Patent Document) 3). However, these methods have drawbacks such as industrial complexity.

また、レモン果皮油から蒸留により低沸点香気成分の一部を除去した後の蒸留残渣を薄膜蒸留する方法が開示されている(特許文献4)。しかしながら、この方法では沸点の低い含酸素揮発性成分が除去されているために、レモンのフレッシュな香気を損なわれるという欠点がある。   Moreover, the method of carrying out thin film distillation of the distillation residue after removing a part of low boiling point aromatic component from lemon peel oil by distillation is disclosed (patent document 4). However, this method has the disadvantage that the fresh aroma of lemon is impaired because the oxygen-containing volatile components having a low boiling point are removed.

さらに、柑橘精油に薄膜蒸留もしくはこれに類似する技術である短工程蒸留や分子蒸留を適用する製造方法については、農薬等の汚染物質を除去する方法として開示されている(特許文献5)。しかし、このような蒸留方法を精密蒸留と組み合わせることにより、柑橘精油の親水性溶媒への溶解性を向上させる手段となることについてはこれまで知られていなかった。   Furthermore, a manufacturing method in which thin film distillation or molecular distillation, which is a technique similar to this, is applied to citrus essential oil is disclosed as a method for removing contaminants such as agricultural chemicals (Patent Document 5). However, it has not been known so far that combining such a distillation method with precision distillation provides a means for improving the solubility of citrus essential oil in a hydrophilic solvent.

本発明の目的は、工業的規模で実施容易な方法により、柑橘精油を親水性溶媒に透明に溶解するための精製方法を提供することにある。   An object of the present invention is to provide a purification method for transparently dissolving citrus essential oil in a hydrophilic solvent by a method that can be easily carried out on an industrial scale.

本発明者らは、上記の課題を解決するために鋭意研究を行ってきた結果、柑橘精油中の親水性溶媒に溶解しにくい不揮発性成分を、一定の圧力で薄膜蒸留することにより香気成分の損失を最小限にして不揮発性成分を除去できること、また、薄膜蒸留により得られた留出物を精密蒸留によりテルペンレス化すると、驚くべきことに、従来の知見とは異なり、蒸留の際の加熱温度が低くても、モノテルペン炭化水素含有量が5質量%以下である柑橘精油精製物を得ることが可能であることを見出した。   As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventors have conducted a thin film distillation of a non-volatile component that is difficult to dissolve in a hydrophilic solvent in citrus essential oil at a constant pressure, thereby reducing the aroma component. Surprisingly, if the distillate obtained by thin-film distillation is made terpene-less by precision distillation, the loss during heating can be surprisingly different from conventional knowledge. It has been found that even if the temperature is low, it is possible to obtain a purified product of citrus essential oil having a monoterpene hydrocarbon content of 5% by mass or less.

さらに、本発明の製造方法により得られた柑橘精油精製物は、親水性溶媒、具体的にはエタノール水溶液、イソプロパノール水溶液、プロピレングリコールに対して良好な溶解性を示すことを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。   Furthermore, the citrus essential oil refined product obtained by the production method of the present invention has been found to exhibit good solubility in hydrophilic solvents, specifically ethanol aqueous solution, isopropanol aqueous solution, propylene glycol, and completed the present invention. It came to do.

以下、本発明について更に詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.

本発明で使用される柑橘精油は、柑橘果皮から圧搾法と呼ばれるローラーや遠心法などで低温のまま果皮を圧搾し、精油を採取する方法が主に用いられている。圧搾法により採取された精油はコールドプレスオイルとも呼ばれている。本発明で使用される柑橘精油の種類は、柑橘であれば特に限定されないが、例えばレモン精油、ライム精油、マンダリン精油、グレープフルーツ精油、オレンジ精油などを挙げることができる。さらに、柑橘精油は市販されているものを用いてもよい。   The citrus essential oil used in the present invention mainly uses a method of extracting essential oil from a citrus peel by pressing the peel with a roller called a pressing method or a centrifugal method at a low temperature. The essential oil collected by the pressing method is also called cold press oil. Although the kind of citrus essential oil used by this invention will not be specifically limited if it is citrus, For example, lemon essential oil, lime essential oil, mandarin essential oil, grapefruit essential oil, orange essential oil etc. can be mentioned. Further, commercially available citrus essential oils may be used.

本発明で使用される柑橘精油はあらかじめテルペンレス化したものを用いてもよい。テルペンレス化の方法は、前記のウォッシングやフォールディングといった方法やこれらの組み合わせによる方法などが挙げられる。   The citrus essential oil used in the present invention may be terpeneless. Examples of the terpeneless method include the above-described methods such as washing and folding, and methods using a combination thereof.

本発明では、まず前記柑橘精油を用いて薄膜蒸留を行い、不揮発性成分を取り除き、留出物を得る。薄膜蒸留の条件は、蒸留装置の圧力を100〜1000Pa、好ましくは200〜900Paに設定し、蒸留装置の温度は、10〜100℃、好ましくは蒸留装置の圧力における、モノテルペン炭化水素化合物であるリモネンの沸点〜90℃に設定することが望ましい。なお、100Paにおけるリモネンの沸点は11℃、1000Paにおいては47℃である。   In the present invention, first, thin film distillation is performed using the citrus essential oil to remove non-volatile components, and a distillate is obtained. The conditions for the thin film distillation are monoterpene hydrocarbon compounds in which the pressure of the distillation apparatus is set to 100 to 1000 Pa, preferably 200 to 900 Pa, and the temperature of the distillation apparatus is 10 to 100 ° C., preferably at the pressure of the distillation apparatus. It is desirable to set the boiling point of limonene to 90 ° C. In addition, the boiling point of limonene at 100 Pa is 11 ° C., and it is 47 ° C. at 1000 Pa.

本発明において薄膜蒸留とは、ある一定の温度に加熱された面上に被蒸留物を連続的に供給して均一な薄膜を形成させ、該被蒸留物をその面上にある間だけ加熱し、揮発性成分を蒸発させることにより揮発性成分と不揮発性成分を分離する蒸留方法である。本発明で使用される薄膜蒸留装置は、前記の均一な薄膜が形成されるのであれば、特に限定されないが、回転薄膜蒸留装置、流下式薄膜蒸留装置、遠心式薄膜蒸留装置、分子蒸留装置などを挙げることができる。   In the present invention, thin film distillation refers to continuously supplying a product to be distilled on a surface heated to a certain temperature to form a uniform thin film, and heating the product to be distilled only on the surface. The distillation method separates a volatile component and a non-volatile component by evaporating the volatile component. The thin film distillation apparatus used in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as the uniform thin film is formed, but a rotating thin film distillation apparatus, a falling film distillation apparatus, a centrifugal thin film distillation apparatus, a molecular distillation apparatus, etc. Can be mentioned.

薄膜蒸留は1回の操作で不揮発性成分を取り除くことができるが、蒸留残渣について繰り返し薄膜蒸留を実施することにより、揮発性成分の回収率を上げることができる。   Thin film distillation can remove non-volatile components by a single operation, but by repeatedly performing thin film distillation on the distillation residue, the recovery rate of volatile components can be increased.

本発明では、次に薄膜蒸留により得られた留出物について精密蒸留を行い、柑橘精油に含有するテルペン炭化水素を留去し、テルペンレス化を行う。精密蒸留の条件は、蒸留装置の圧力を200〜2000Pa、好ましくは400〜1800Paに設定し、蒸留装置の加熱温度を20〜125℃、好ましくは蒸留装置の圧力におけるリモネンの沸点〜110℃に設定する。留出温度は20〜90℃、好ましくは20〜蒸留装置の圧力におけるリモネンの沸点+20℃の画分を留去することにより、効率よくテルペン炭化水素を、特にモノテルペン炭化水素を留去することができる。なお、200Paにおけるリモネンの沸点は20℃、2000Paにおいては62℃である。   In the present invention, the distillate obtained by thin film distillation is then subjected to precision distillation to distill off the terpene hydrocarbons contained in the citrus essential oil, thereby performing terpeneless. The conditions for precision distillation are that the pressure of the distillation apparatus is set to 200 to 2000 Pa, preferably 400 to 1800 Pa, and the heating temperature of the distillation apparatus is set to 20 to 125 ° C., preferably the boiling point of limonene at the pressure of the distillation apparatus to 110 ° C. To do. The distillation temperature is 20 to 90 ° C., preferably 20 to 20% by distilling off the fraction of the boiling point of limonene at the pressure of the distillation apparatus + 20 ° C. to efficiently distill off terpene hydrocarbons, particularly monoterpene hydrocarbons. Can do. The boiling point of limonene at 200 Pa is 20 ° C., and at 2000 Pa, it is 62 ° C.

前記の精密蒸留の圧力と温度の設定は、柑橘精油等を薄膜蒸留することにより得られた留出物から、モノテルペン炭化水素を留去でき、かつ、柑橘精油の重要香気成分となる含酸素化合物を残存させ、前記含酸素化合物を加熱より変化させない条件が好ましい。加熱温度を前記の温度以上に設定した場合は、含酸素化合物が変化してしまい、柑橘精油由来のフレッシュな香気が失われてしまう。   The precision distillation pressure and temperature are set so that monoterpene hydrocarbons can be distilled off from a distillate obtained by thin-film distillation of citrus essential oil, etc., and oxygen content that is an important aroma component of citrus essential oil The condition that the compound remains and the oxygen-containing compound is not changed by heating is preferable. When heating temperature is set more than the said temperature, an oxygen-containing compound will change and the fresh fragrance derived from citrus essential oil will be lost.

精密蒸留は1回の操作でテルペン炭化水素を留去することができるが、2回以上精密蒸留を実施することにより、確実にテルペン炭化水素を留去することができる。   In the precision distillation, the terpene hydrocarbon can be distilled off by one operation, but the terpene hydrocarbon can be surely distilled off by performing the precision distillation twice or more.

このようにして得られた本発明の柑橘精油精製物は、不揮発性成分を含有せず、かつモノテルペン炭化水素類が5%以下、好ましくは4%以下、より好ましくは3.5%以下であり、柑橘精油特有の成分である含酸素揮発性成分の損失が最小限に抑えられ、フレッシュな香気が保持されている。本発明の柑橘精油精製物が本発明の方法で得られたオレンジ精油精製物である場合、本発明の柑橘精油精製物における柑橘精油特有の成分である含酸素揮発性成分の割合が50%以上であることが好ましく、60%以上であることがより好ましく、70%以上であることが特に好ましく、80%以上であることがより特に好ましい。本発明の柑橘精油精製物が本発明の方法で得られたレモン精油精製物である場合、本発明の柑橘精油精製物における柑橘精油特有の成分である含酸素揮発性成分の割合が50%以上であることが好ましく、60%以上であることがより好ましく、65%以上であることが特に好ましい。   The purified citrus essential oil of the present invention thus obtained contains no non-volatile components, and monoterpene hydrocarbons are 5% or less, preferably 4% or less, more preferably 3.5% or less. In addition, the loss of oxygen-containing volatile components, which are characteristic components of citrus essential oil, is minimized, and a fresh aroma is maintained. When the citrus essential oil refined product of the present invention is an orange essential oil refined product obtained by the method of the present invention, the proportion of the oxygen-containing volatile component that is a component unique to the citrus essential oil in the purified citrus essential oil of the present invention is 50% or more. It is preferably 60% or more, more preferably 70% or more, and particularly preferably 80% or more.

Figure 0006371863
Figure 0006371863

表8の結果より、本発明品2はエタノール濃度70〜90質量%の水溶液には透明に溶解するが、エタノール濃度60質量%の水溶液では少し吸光度が高くなってしまった。一方、比較品5はエタノール濃度80〜90質量%の水溶液には透明に溶解するが、エタノール濃度70質量%以下の水溶液については透明に溶解せず、吸光度が高くなってしまうことが示された。また、比較品5については、プロピレングリコール溶液中においても吸光度が高くなってしまうことが示された。   From the results of Table 8, the product 2 of the present invention was transparently dissolved in an aqueous solution having an ethanol concentration of 70 to 90% by mass, but the absorbance was slightly increased in an aqueous solution having an ethanol concentration of 60% by mass. On the other hand, it was shown that the comparative product 5 is transparently dissolved in an aqueous solution having an ethanol concentration of 80 to 90% by mass, but the aqueous solution having an ethanol concentration of 70% by mass or less is not transparently dissolved and the absorbance increases. . Moreover, about the comparative product 5, it was shown that a light absorbency will also become high in a propylene glycol solution.

実施例10:レモン精油の***試験
本発明品2および比較品5〜8の熱***および光***試験を行った。まずは、本発明品2および比較品5〜8をエタノール70質量%の水溶液に溶解させた。エタノール水溶液に本発明品2は1質量%、比較品5は20質量%、比較品6は5質量%、比較品7は5質量%、比較品8は1質量%溶解させた。比較品5〜7については炭化水素の割合が高く炭化水素が溶解されないため、不溶部を除去してエタノール水溶液とした。このエタノール水溶液の溶解品を実施例5の表4に示す処方により飲料に賦香した。
Example 10: Lemon Essential Oil Abuse Test The inventive product 2 and comparative products 5-8 were subjected to thermal and light abuse tests. First, the product 2 of the present invention and the comparative products 5 to 8 were dissolved in an aqueous solution of 70% by mass of ethanol. 1% by mass of the product 2 of the present invention, 20% by mass of the comparative product 5, 5% by mass of the comparative product 6, 5% by mass of the comparative product 7 and 1% by mass of the comparative product 8 were dissolved in the ethanol aqueous solution. In Comparative products 5 to 7, the ratio of hydrocarbons was high and the hydrocarbons were not dissolved, so the insoluble part was removed to obtain an ethanol aqueous solution. The dissolved product of this ethanol aqueous solution was flavored to a beverage according to the formulation shown in Table 4 of Example 5.

この賦香した飲料について***試験を行った。熱***の条件は50℃に保たれた容器に10日間放置した。光***の条件は20,000ルクスの部屋に100時間放置した。これらの***品について、***前の飲料をコントロール品(コントロール品は冷暗所にて保管)として、よく訓練されたパネラー10名で香気評価を行った。香気評価は以下の基準により5段階で行った。5:コントロール品と差なし、4:少し劣化臭あり、3:レモン感は残るものの劣化臭あり、2:劣化臭あり、1:強い劣化臭あり。10名のパネラーの評価の平均を表9に示す。   An abuse test was conducted on the flavored beverage. The condition of heat abuse was left for 10 days in a container kept at 50 ° C. The condition of light abuse was left in a room of 20,000 lux for 100 hours. About these abused goods, the beverage before the abuse was used as a control product (the control product was stored in a cool and dark place), and fragrance evaluation was conducted by 10 well-trained panelists. The fragrance evaluation was performed in five stages according to the following criteria. 5: No difference from control product, 4: Slightly deteriorated odor, 3: Lemon feeling remains but deteriorated odor, 2: Deteriorated odor, 1: Strongly deteriorated odor. Table 9 shows the average evaluation of 10 panelists.

Figure 0006371863
Figure 0006371863

表9の結果より、本発明品2は比較品5〜8と比較して***したときの香気劣化が最も少ないことが分かった。比較品5はテルペンレス処理をしていないレモン精油であるが、エタノール水溶液にはテルペン炭化水素が溶解しており、また、不揮発性成分も存在するため、***した際にオフフレーバーが多く生成したものと考えられる。また、比較品8のテルペンフリー品は、油の劣化臭が生じている。   From the results in Table 9, it was found that the product 2 of the present invention had the least fragrance degradation when abused compared to the comparative products 5-8. Comparative product 5 is a lemon essential oil that has not been treated with terpene, but terpene hydrocarbons are dissolved in the aqueous ethanol solution, and there are also non-volatile components, so a lot of off-flavor was produced when abused. It is considered a thing. Moreover, the terpene free product of the comparative product 8 has a deteriorated odor of oil.

以上の結果より、不揮発性成分を含有せず、かつモノテルペン炭化水素が5%以下である本発明品1および2は、プロピレングリコールやエタノール水溶液に容易に溶解し、また、高温の条件や光照射の条件でも香気がほとんど損なわれないことが示された。   From the above results, the products 1 and 2 of the present invention which do not contain a non-volatile component and have a monoterpene hydrocarbon content of 5% or less can be easily dissolved in propylene glycol or an aqueous ethanol solution, It was shown that the aroma is hardly impaired even under irradiation conditions.
