Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing 2-keto-L-gulonic acid-C4-C10 alkyl ester by esterifying 2-keto-L-gulonic acid (KGS) with an unsaturated, branched or unbranched C4-C10 alcohol. The inventive method is characterized by the fact that an aqueous KGS solution is reacted with a C4-C10 alcohol up to an esterification degree of 20 to 70 percent in a pre-esterification process carried out under acidic catalysis conditions; and the obtained product is dehydrogenated with an unsaturated, branched or unbranched C4-C10 alcohol in a continuous rectification device, whereby the esterification reaction continues, n-butanol preferably being used as the alkyl alcohol. In a preferred embodiment, the aqueous KGS solution is concentrated up to or beyond the limit of solubility prior to the esterification process, preferably by catalyzing a homogeneous or heterogeneous catalyst, especially sulfonic acid, at temperatures of 50 to 120 °C. In another embodiment, the produced KGS ester is reacted in one or several additional steps so as to obtain L-ascorbic acid.
