Abstract

In order to optimize the preparation process of icariin, the method of hydrolyzing icariin was used to prepare icariin. The effects of acid type, solvent concentration, reaction temperature and reaction time on the yield were investigated. The optimum preparation conditions were obtained, under the action of concentrated sulfuric acid, 90% ethanol was used as solvent, and the reaction temperature was 80℃ for 3 hours.

Keywords
