Four new abscisic acid related compounds (1-4), together with (+)-abscisic acid (5), (+)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl abscisate (6), (6S,9R)-roseoside (7), and two lignan glucosides ((+)-pinoresinol mono-beta-D-glucopyranoside (8) and 3-(beta-D-glucopyranosyloxymethyl)-2- (4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-5-(3-hydroxypropyl)-7-methoxy-(2R,3S)-dihydrobenzofuran (9)) were isolated from the antioxidative ethanol extract of prunes (Prunus domestica L.). The structures of 1-4 were elucidated on the basis of NMR and MS spectrometric data to be rel-5-(3S,8S-dihydroxy-1R,5S-dimethyl-7-oxa-6-oxobicyclo[3,2,1]oct-8-yl)-3-methyl-2Z,4E-pentadienoic acid (1), rel-5-(3S,8S-dihydroxy-1R,5S-dimethyl-7-oxa-6-oxobicyclo[3,2,1]oct-8-yl)-3-methyl-2Z,4E-pentadienoic acid 3'-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside (2), rel-5-(1R,5S-dimethyl-3R,4R,8S-trihydroxy-7-oxa-6-oxobicyclo[3,2,1]oct-8-yl)-3-methyl-2Z,4E-pentadienoic acid (3), and rel-5-(1R,5S-dimethyl-3R,4R,8S-trihydroxy-7-oxabicyclo[3,2,1]- oct-8-yl)-3-methyl-2Z,4E-pentadienoic acid (4). The antioxidant activities of these isolated compounds were evaluated on the basis of oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC). The ORAC values of abscisic acid related compounds (1-7) were very low. Two lignans (8 and 9) were more effective antioxidants whose ORAC values were 1.09 and 2.33 micromol of Trolox equiv/micromol, respectively. 相似文献

The major in vivo metabolites of (S)-(-)-pulegone in humans using a metabolism of ingestion-correlated amounts (MICA) experiment were newly identified as 2-(2-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-5-methylcyclohexanone (8-hydroxymenthone, M1), 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)cyclohexanone (1-hydroxymenthone, M2), 3-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)cyclohexanol (menthol), and E-2-(2-hydroxy-1-methylethylidene)-5-methylcyclohexanone (10-hydroxypulegone, M4) on the basis of mass spectrometric analysis in combination with syntheses and NMR experiments. Minor metabolites were be identified as 3-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)-2-cyclohexenone (piperitone, M5) and alpha,alpha,4-trimethyl-1-cyclohexene-1-methanol (3-p-menthen-8-ol, M6). Menthofuran was not a major metabolite of pulegone and is most probably an artifact formed during workup from known (M4) and/or unknown precursors. The differences in toxicity between (S)-(-)- and (R)-(+)-pulegone can be explained by the strongly diminished ability for enzymatic reduction of the double bond in (R)-(+)-pulegone. This might lead to further oxidative metabolism of 10-hydroxypulegone (M4) and the formation of further currently undetected metabolites that might account for the observed hepatotoxic and pneumotoxic activity in humans. 相似文献

Lytic activity of l-menthol (1) derivatives [(-)-(1S,3R,4S,6S)-6-hydroxymenthol (2), (-)-(1S,3R,4S)-1-hydroxymenthol (3), and (+)-(1S,3R,4R,6S)-6,8-dihydroxymenthol (4)] against the snow blight disease fungus, Micronectriella nivalis was investigated. Compounds 2, 3, and 4 had 85.0, 63.9, and 81.9% lytic activity, respectively, at a concentration of 0.2 mg/mL. The activity of each of the three compounds increased in a dose-response manner. To study the structure-activity relationship, acetyl esters of 1-4 [(-)-menthyl acetate (1Ac), (-)-6-hydroxymenthyl diacetate (2Ac), (-)-1-hydroxymenthyl 3-monoacetate (3Ac), and (-)-6,8-dihydroxymenthyl 3,6-diacetate (4Ac)] were synthesized with yields of 80.2-99.8% and were also assayed. The acetyl esters of 1Ac, 2Ac, 3Ac, and 4Ac had 51.2, 91.5, 66.0, and 95.2% lytic activity, respectively, at a concentration of 0.2 mg/mL, and these compounds showed further high lytic activity compared with the alcohols of 1-4. These acetyl esters also showed higher lytic activity as their concentration was increased. Of particular interest is the fact that 2Ac and 4Ac both had higher lytic activity at 0.05-0.2 mg/mL compared with copper 8-hydroxyquinolate, a standard chemical widely used to control snow blight. This is the first report on lytic activity of l-menthol derivatives. 相似文献

Euryale ferox seed is consumed medicinally or for food in China. The present study revealed it to contain significant antioxidant activity, which may be associated with its medical applications as a proteinuria inhibitor of diabetic nephropathy. This study resulted in the identification of 3 new sesquineolignans, named euryalins A-C (1-3), and 16 known compounds, which were all first isolated from this plant apart from 5,7,4-trihydroxy-flavanone. The antioxidant potential of the partial isolates was evaluated using the DPPH radical scavenging assay and mesangial cellular assay. Compounds 2, rel-(2α,3β)-7-O-methylcedrusin (4), syringylglycerol-8-O-4-(sinapyl alcohol) ether (5), and (+)-syringaresinol (7) were found to be most active on DPPH assay, whereas compounds 2, 4, 7, (1R,2R,5R,6S)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-6-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3,7-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octane, and buddlenol E could significantly inhibit high glucose-stimulated reactive oxygen species production in mesangial cells. The results suggested that E. ferox seed could be considered as an excellent source of natural antioxidants and is useful in the prevention of diabetic nephropathy. 相似文献

(S)-(+)-O-methylmandelate esters of trans- and cis-1,3, 3-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-5- and 6-ols (2- and 3-hydroxy-1,8-cineoles) were prepared, and eight diastereomers were separated. The absolute configuration of the asymmetric carbons of the cineole moiety of each diastereomer was determined by (1)H NMR data according to the Mosher theory. Each mandelate was reduced with LiAlH(4) to obtain optically pure hydroxy-1,8-cineoles, this being followed by acetylation to afford optically pure acetoxy-1, 8-cineoles. These acetates were subjected to chiral GC, using a cyclodextrin column, and the enantiomeric purity of trans- and cis-1, 3,3-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-5- and 6-yl acetates in the aroma concentrate from the rhizomes of Alpinia galanga was determined as 93.9 (5S), 19.4 (5R), 63.5 (6R), and 100 (6R) % ee, respectively. The aroma character of each enantiomer was also evaluated by GC-sniffing. 相似文献

Transformation of a monoterpene ketone, (R)-(+)-pulegone, a potent hepatotoxin, in Mucor piriformis.
Biotransformation of a monoterpene ketone, (R)-(+)-pulegone (I), a potent hepatotoxin, was studied using a fungal strain, Mucor piriformis. Eight metabolites, namely, 5-hydroxypulegone (II), piperitenone (III), 6-hydroxypulegone (IV), 3-hydroxypulegone (V), 5-methyl-2-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-2-cyclohexene-1-one (VI), 3-hydroxyisopulegone (VII), 7-hydroxypiperitenone (VIII), and 7-hydroxypulegone (IX), have been isolated from the fermentation medium and identified. GC analysis of the metabolites indicated that II was the major metabolite formed. The organism initiates transformation either by hydroxylation at the C-5 position or by hydroxylation of the ring methylenes, the former being the major activity. On the basis of the identification of the metabolites, pathways for the biotransformation of (R)-(+)-pulegone have been proposed. The mode of transformation of (S)-(-)-pulegone by this organism was shown to be similar to that of its (R)-(+)-enantiomer. When isopulegone (X) was used as the substrate, the organism isomerized it to pulegone (I), which was then transformed to metabolites II-IX. 相似文献

The L-cysteine derivatives (R)-2-amino-3-(methyldisulfanyl)propanoic acid (S-methylthio-L-cysteine), (R)-2-amino-3-(propyldisulfanyl)propanoic acid (S-propylthio-L-cysteine), (R)-2-amino-3-(1-propenyldisulfanyl)propanoic acid (S-(1-propenylthio)-L-cysteine), and (R)-2-amino-3-(2-propenyldisulfanyl)propanoic acid (S-allylthio-L-cysteine) were prepared from 3-[(methoxycarbonyl)dithio]-L-alanine, obtained from the reaction of L-cysteine with methoxycarbonylsulfenyl chloride. The occurrence of these S-(+)-alk(en)ylthio-L-cysteine derivatives in onion (Allium cepa L.) was proven by using UPLC-MS-ESI(+) in SRM mode. Their concentrations in fresh onion were estimated to be 0.19 mg/kg S-methylthio-L-cysteine, 0.01 mg/kg S-propylthio-L-cysteine, and 0.56 mg/kg (S-(1-propenyllthio)-L-cysteine, concentrations that are about 3000 times lower than that of isoalliin (S-(1-propenyl-S-oxo-L-cysteine). These compounds were treated with Fusobacterium nucleatum, a microorganism responsible for the formation of mouth malodor. These L-cysteine disulfides were demonstrated to predominantly produce tri- and tetrasulfides. Isoalliin is almost entirely consumed by the plant enzyme alliin lyase (EC 4.4.1.4 S-alk(en)yl-S-oxo-L-cysteine lyase) in a few seconds, but it is not transformed by F. nucleatum. This example of flavor modulation shows that the plant produces different precursors, leading to the formation of the same types of volatile sulfur compounds. Whereas the plant enzyme efficiently transforms S-alk(en)yl-S-oxo-L-cysteine, mouth bacteria are responsible for the transformation of S-alk(en)ylthio-L-cysteine. 相似文献

A semisynthetic approach for the strategic formation of various procyanidins has been developed. Procyanidin-rich grape seed extracts were reacted with flavan-3-ols under acid catalysis. The reaction enables the formation of dimeric procyanidins and the elimination of higher oligomeric and polymeric procyanidins through degradation. An easy and fast method for the isolation of large amounts of procyanidins after semisynthetic formation by high-speed countercurrent chromatography is presented. Dimeric procyanidins (B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, and B7) were obtained and isolated. Furthermore, galloylated dimeric procyanidins [(-)-epicatechin-3- O-gallate-4beta-->8-(+)-catechin, (-)-epicatechin-3- O-gallate-4beta-->8-(-)-epicatechin, (-)-epicatechin-3- O-gallate-4beta-->6-(-)-epicatechin, and (-)-epicatechin-4beta-->8-(-)-epicatechin-3- O-gallate], as well as trimeric procyanidins [C1, (-)-epicatechin-4beta-->6-(-)-epicatechin-4beta-->8-(-)-epicatechin, and (-)-epicatechin-4beta-->6-(-)-epicatechin-4beta-->6-(+)-catechin] were obtained and isolated as side products. This approach also afforded gambiriins A1 and A2, which were all isolated and unambiguously identified, and the novel 3-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)-1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-propan-2-ol-1beta-->8-(-)-epicatechin (gambiriin A4). 相似文献

Striga gesnerioides is a root parasitic weed of economic significance to cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) crops in Western Africa. Seeds of the parasite germinate in response to cowpea root exudates. Germination stimulants for the seeds were isolated from the hydroponic culture filtrate of cowpea, and their structures were unambiguously determined as (-)-(3aR,4R,8bR,2'R)-ent-2'-epi-orobanchol and (+)-(3aR,4R,8bR,2'R)-ent-2'-epi-orobanchyl acetate, on the basis of mass, CD, and (1)H NMR spectra; optical rotatory power; and chromatographic behavior on HPLC. The alcohol was first isolated and identified from the cowpea root exudates, and the acetate may be the same compound that had been previously isolated from the exudates and designated as alectrol. Identity of the stimulants produced by cowpea to those produced by red clover (Trifolium pratense) was confirmed. 相似文献

Convenient syntheses were developed to obtain on a multigram scale the novel taste enhancer N-(1-carboxyethyl)-6-(hydroxymethyl)pyridinium-3-ol 1, called alapyridaine, as a racemic mixture and as pure (+)-(S) and (-)-(R) enantiomers, respectively. 5-(Hydroxymethyl)-2-furaldehyde was used as key intermediate and was reacted with l-alanine under alkaline conditions to obtain racemic 1. Alternatively, reductive amination of 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furaldehyde with Raney-Ni/hydrogen and l- or d-alanine followed by mild oxidation led to (+)-(S)-1 and (-)-(R)-1, respectively. Racemization was promoted under alkaline and boiling conditions via a carbanion, the formation of which was facilitated by the electron-withdrawing effect of the iminium cation and the resonance-stabilizing capacity of the pyridinium moiety. Under these conditions, 1 was obtained in a 1:1 mixture of the phenol (1) and phenolate (1-H) forms as shown by X-ray diffraction. Racemic 1 formed monoclinic crystals of high molecular organization in which the phenol-type (RS)-1, the phenolate-type (RS)-1-H, sodium cations, and ethanol molecules are present. The crystal structure of [Na(1)(1-H).(C(2)H(6)O)] shows one-dimensional mu(2)-bridging-oxygen polymers stabilized by a three-dimensional network of ionic, hydrogen bond, and pi-stacking interactions with channels occupied by solvent molecules. 相似文献

Four new steroidal saponins from the seeds of Allium tuberosum 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Four new steroidal saponins, 26-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(25S,20R)-20-O-methyl-5alpha-furost-22(23)-en-2alpha,3beta,20,26-tetraol 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1); 26-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(25S,20R)-5alpha-furost-22(23)-en-2alpha,3beta,20,26-tetraol 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-[alpha-L- rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside (2); 26-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(25S,20S)-5alpha-furost-22(23)-en-2alpha,3beta,20,26-tetraol 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-[alpha-L- rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3); and 26-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(25S,20S)-5alpha-furost-22(23)-en-3beta,20,26-triol 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4), have been isolated from the seeds of Allium tuberosum. Their structures were established by spectroscopic studies such as MS, IR, NMR, and 2D-NMR and the results of acid hydrolysis and named tuberosides F, G, H, and I, respectively. 相似文献

The methanol extract of sesame (Sesamum indicum) seeds was fractionated and purified with the assistance of conventional column chromatography to afford 29 compounds including seven furofuran lignans. Among these isolates, (+)-samin (1) was obtained from the natural source for the first time. In addition, (-)-asarinin (30) and sesamol (31) were generated by oxidative derivation from (+)-sesamolin (2) and (+)-sesamin (3), two abundant lignans found in sesame seeds. To evaluate their in vitro antioxidant potential, the seven isolated lignans (1-7) and the two derivatives (30 and 31) were examined for the scavenging activities on DPPH free radicals and superoxide anions. Moreover, the capability of chelating ferrous ions and reducing power of these sesame lignans were also measured. The results suggest that, besides the well-known sesamolin and sesamin, the minor sesame lignans (+)-(7S,8'R,8R)-acuminatolide (5), (-)-piperitol (6), and (+)-pinoresinol (7) are also adequate active ingredients and may be potential sources for nutritional and pharmacological utilization. 相似文献

Although menthol is a common ingredient used in food products, other molecules also evoke coolness through stimulation of the somatosensory system. To discover new molecules having cooling properties, we virtually screened the chemical structures of terpenes and sesquiterpenes to find structures that are similar to (-)-menthol. We realized that dihydroumbellulols could be good candidates. Although their occurrence was reported in Hyptis pectinata Poit, we were unable to obtain these molecules from the plant or to prove their natural occurrence. Therefore, we extracted (-)-(R)-umbellulone from Umbellularia californica Nutt. The (-)-(R)-umbellulone was reduced to prepare (1R,2R/S)-1-isopropyl-4-methylbicyclo[3.1.0]hex-3-en-2-ol, (1R,4R/S)-1-isopropyl-4-methylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-one, and (1R,2RS,4RS)-1-isopropyl-4-methylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-ols, named dihydroumbellulols. Sensory analysis suggested that (1R,2R,4S)-dihydroumbellulol has a pleasant, trigeminal cooling effect, about 2-3 times less cooling than (-)-menthol, with a weak odor slightly reminiscent of eucalyptol. In addition, a previously unreported compound was discovered, (-)-(1R)-1-isopropyl-4-methylenebicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-one. 相似文献

Three new furostanol saponins named capsicoside E (1), capsicoside F (2), and capsicoside G (5) were obtained from the seeds of Capsicum annuum L. var. acuminatum along with known oligoglycosides (3, 4, and 6-10). On the basis of chemical and spectroscopic analyses, the structures of these new furostanol oligoglycosides were elucidated as 26-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-22-O-methyl-5alpha-furost-25(27)-en-2alpha,3beta,22xi,26-tetraol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->3)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->3)]-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->4)-beta-D-galactopyranoside (1), 26-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(25R)-5alpha-furost-20(22)-en-2alpha,3beta,26-triol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl (1-->3)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->3)]-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->4)-beta-D-galactopyranoside (2), and 26-O-beta-D-gluco-pyranosyl-(25R)-5alpha-furosta-3beta,22xi,26-triol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->3)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->3)]-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->4)-beta-D-galactopyranoside (5). The isolated saponins showed higher antimicrobial activity against yeasts than against common fungi. Data indicated that the antiyeast activity was related to the combination of the oligosaccharide chain (S1, S2, or S3) with an O-methyl group at R(3) and the presence of a hydroxyl group at the C-2 position. 相似文献

Chocolate and other cocoa-containing products are a rich source of polyphenols. This paper describes an ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) method that can separate and quantify in 3 min six of the major chocolate polyphenols: catechin; epicatechin; B2 (epicatechin-4beta-8-epicatechin); B5 (epicatechin-4beta-6-epicatechin); C1 (epicatechin-4beta-8-epicatechin-4beta-8-epicatechin); and tetramer D (epicatechin-4beta-8-epicatechin-4beta-8-epicatechin-4beta-8-epicatechin). A survey of 68 chocolate samples indicated that there was a strongly predictive relationship between epicatechin and the other individual polyphenols, especially procyanidin B2 (R 2 = 0.989), even though the chocolates came from varied sources and manufacturers. The relationship was less strong with catechin, and so further work to explore the reasons for this difference was performed. Chiral analysis on a subset of 23 chocolates showed that (-)-epicatechin had a predictive relationship with (+)-catechin in line with the other polyphenols, but not with (-)-catechin (the predominant form). This indicates that (-)-catechin is the most affected by manufacturing conditions, possibly formed through epimerization from (-)-epicatechin during processing. The results show that epicatechin concentrations can be used to predict the content of other polyphenols, especially B2 and C1, and total polyphenols content. Finally, the (-)-catechin content is not predictable from the epicatechin content, and it is concluded that this is the main form of polyphenol that varies according to manufacturing conditions and cocoa origin. 相似文献

The major in vivo metabolites of S-(+)- and R-(-)-carvone in a metabolism of ingestion correlated amounts (MICA) experiment were newly identified as alpha,4-dimethyl-5-oxo-3-cyclohexene-1-acetic acid (dihydrocarvonic acid), alpha-methylene-4-methyl-5-oxo-3-cyclohexene-1-acetic acid (carvonic acid), and 5-(1,2-dihydroxy-1-methylethyl)-2-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one (uroterpenolone) on the basis of mass spectral analysis in combination with syntheses and NMR experiments. Minor metabolites were identified as reduction products of carvone, namely, the alcohols carveol and dihydrocarveol. The previously identified major in vivo metabolite in rabbits, 10-hydroxycarvone, could not be detected, indicating either concentration effects or interspecies differences. Metabolic pathways for carvone in humans including oxidation of the double bond in the side chain and, to a minor extent 1,2- and 1,4 + 1,2-reduction of carvone, are discussed. No differences in metabolism between S-(+)- and R-(-)-carvone were detected. 相似文献

Sequential application of solvent extraction, gel permeation chromatography, and RP-HPLC in combination with taste dilution analyses, followed by LC-MS and 1D/2D-NMR experiments and thiolytic degradation, revealed that, besides theobromine and caffeine, the flavan-3-ols epicatechin, catechin, procyanidin B-2, procyanidin B-5, procyanidin C-1, [epicatechin-(4beta-->8)](3)-epicatechin, and [epicatechin-(4beta-->8)](4)-epicatechin were among the key compounds contributing to the bitter taste as well as the astringent mouthfeel imparted upon consumption of roasted cocoa. In addition, a series of quercetin, naringenin, luteolin, and apigenin glycopyranosides as well as a family of not previously identified amino acid amides, namely, (+)-N-[4'-hydroxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-L-aspartic acid, (+)-N-[3',4'-dihydroxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-L-aspartic acid, (-)-N-[3',4'-dihydroxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-L-glutamic acid, (-)-N-[4'-hydroxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-L-glutamic acid, (-)-N-[4'-hydroxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-3-hydroxy-L-tyrosine, (+)-N-[4'-hydroxy-3'-methoxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-L-aspartic acid, and (+)-N-(E)-cinnamoyl-L-aspartic acid, have been identified as key astringent compounds of roasted cocoa. Furthermore, (-)-N-[3',4'-dihydroxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-3-hydroxy-l-tyrosine (clovamide), (-)-N-[4'-hydroxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-L-tyrosine (deoxyclovamide), and (-)-N-[3',4'-dihydroxy-(E)-cinnamoyl]-L-tyrosine, reported previously as antioxidants, have been found as contributors of cocoa's astringent taste. By means of the half-tongue test, the taste thresholds of flavan-3-ols and glycosides have been determined. 相似文献

Extracts obtained by XAD solid-phase extraction of apple juice and cider were separated by liquid chromatography on silica gel. Several new 1,3-dioxanes including the known 2-methyl-4-pentyl-1,3-dioxane and 2-methyl-4-[2'(Z)-pentenyl]-1,3-dioxane, were identified in the nonpolar fractions by GC/MS analysis and confirmed by chemical synthesis. The enantioselective synthesis of the stereoisomers of the 1,3-dioxanes was performed using (R)- and (R,S)-octane-1,3-diol and (R)- and (R,S)-5(Z)-octene-1,3-diol as starting material. Comparison with the isolated products indicated that the natural products consisted of a mixture of (2S,4R) and (2R,4R) stereoisomers in the ratio of approximately 10:1, except for 1,3-dioxanes generated from acetone and 2-butanone. It is assumed that the 1, 3-dioxanes are chemically formed in the apples and cider from the natural apple ingredients (R)-octane-1,3-diol, (R)-5(Z)-octene-1, 3-diol, (3R,7R)- and (3R,7S)-octane-1,3,7-triol, and the appropriate aldehydes and ketones, which are produced either by the apples or by yeast during fermentation of the apple juice. 相似文献

Three new spirostanol saponins have been isolated from the seeds of Allium tuberosum. On the basis of acid hydrolysis and comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, their structures were established as tuberoside J, (25R)-5alpha-spirostan-2alpha,3beta,27-triol 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranoside; tuberoside K, (25R)-5alpha-spirostan-2alpha,3beta,27-triol 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside; and tuberoside L, 27-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(25R)-5alpha-spirostan-2alpha,3beta,27-triol 3-O-alpha-D-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside. 相似文献

Cysteine conjugates, resulting from the addition of cysteine to alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, are important precursors of odorant sulfur compounds in food flavors. The aim of this work was to better understand this chemistry in the light of the unexpected double addition of cysteine to two unsaturated aldehydes. These reactions were studied as a function of pH. When (E)-2-methyl-2-butenal (tiglic aldehyde, 4) was treated with cysteine in water at pH 8, the major product formed was the new compound (4R)-2-(2-[[(2R)-2-amino-2-carboxyethyl]thio]methylpropyl)-1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (6). Under acidic conditions (pH 1), we also observed a double addition, but the second cysteine was linked by a vinylic sulfide bond to form the previously unreported major product, (2R,2'R,E)-S,S'-(2,3-dimethyl-1-propene-1,3-diyl)bis-cysteine (7). When (E)-2-hexenal (12) was treated with cysteine under acidic conditions, the major product was the novel (4R,2' 'R)-2-[2'-(2' '-amino-2' '-carboxyethylthio)pentyl]-1,3-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (13), and the formation of an vinylic sulfide compound analogous to 7 was not observed. Reduction of the acidic crude reaction mixture with NaBH(4) afforded 13 and the cysteine derivative (R)-S-[1-(2-hydroxyethyl)butyl]cysteine (14) in 14% yield. Treating (E)-2-hexenal with cysteine at pH 8 followed by NaBH(4) reduction yielded the new product (3R)-7-propylhexahydro-1,4-thiazepine-3-carboxylic acid (15). Addition of cysteine to mesityl oxide (16), at pH 8, followed by reduction with NaBH(4) furnished (R)-S-(3-hydroxy-1,1-dimethylbutyl)cysteine (3) and the new compound (3R)-hexahydro-5,7,7-trimethyl-1,4-thiazepine-3-carboxylic acid (18). 相似文献
