Are glycosides more soluble in dichloromethane than in water?
Anybody with glycoside isolation from bio-matrices would tell you that your plan is not going to work. Amygdalin is classified as a cyanogenic glycoside because it contains nitrile moiety. It is contained in the seeds of bitter almond, apricot, apple, black cherry, peach, plum, etc. Amygdalin was first isolated in 1830 from bitter almond seeds (Prunus dulcis) by French chemists, Pierre-Jean Robiquet and Antoine Boutron-Charlard. Traditionally, the extraction method of the chemical ingredients in the medicinal materials is decoction in boiling water, which was the method French chemists has used to isolate amygdalin. Presently, it has been isolated using several other methods and its structure has been characterized by several groups around the world. 

Amygdalin can be dissolved in water and ethanol easily. Solubility of amygdalin in water and ethanol is $\pu{83 g/L}$ and $\pu{1 g/L}$, respectively (Ref.1). Ref.1 described the isolation of amygdalin from plum seeds for the first time, has used ethanol to extract soluble compounds, and finally, used diethyl ether to isolate amygdalin from the complex ethanol extraction mixture. Before extract, the plant material was dried to the moisture content of 6% in a dark place and then ground in a blender to obtain a fine powder with average particle size of $\pu{0.3 mm}$. The ethanol extraction and diethyl ether isolation procedure used in Ref.1 have been described as follows:  


  The powdered solid plant material ($\pu{2.0 g}$) was transferred into the Plant material (2 g) was transferred into the $100$-$\pu{mL}$ round bottom flask and treated with exactly defined volume of ethanol. The extractions at higher temperatures were carried out under reflux, while the extractions at lower temperatures were carried out in closed vessels. The system temperature was maintained using a water bath. After extraction, the extract was separated from the solid plant material by filtering process. Plant extracts were evaporated in rotary evaporator under reduced pressure to remove the solvent, and then stored in desiccator until it reached the constant mass. After addition of diethyl ether ($\pu{10 mL}$) to the complex extraction mixture, amygdalin was precipitated, while fatty compounds were dissolved. The dissolved fatty compounds were removed by decanting process. The solid phase was dried at $\pu{30 °C}$ in order to remove the residual solvent. In this way, the sample was prepared for determination of its purity using HPLC analysis and structural characterization by FT-IR, UV, and MS methods.


The effect of extraction time ($\pu{10–120 min}$), ethanol concentration ($20–100\%,\: v/v$), solid-to-liquid ratio ($1: 5\: – 1: 25,\: m/v$) and extraction temperature ($\pu{22–78°C}$) on the content of amygdalin in the dried extract has been studied. As a result, the optimal conditions were achieved: The extraction time of $\pu{120 min}$; $100\% \:(v/v)$ ethanol; solid-to-liquid ratio of $1:25\: (m/v)$; and extraction temperature of $\pu{34.4°C}$. The optimal yield of $\pu{25.30 g}$ of amygdalin content in the extracts per $\pu{100 g}$ of dried extract was reported.
