Fruits of the cultivated eggplant species Solanum melongena and its wild relative Solanum incanum have a high content of hydroxycinnamic acid conjugates, which are implicated in the human health benefits of various fruits and vegetables. Monocaffeoylquinic acid esters, in particular 5-O-(E)-caffeoylquinic acid, are usually predominant in solanaceous fruits and tubers. Two closely related caffeoylquinic acid derivatives with longer C(18) HPLC retention times than those of monocaffeoylquinic acids are minor constituents in cultivated eggplant fruit. In a prior study, the two compounds were tentatively identified as 3-O-acetyl- and 4-O-acetyl-5-O-(E)-caffeoylquinic acids and composed ≤2% of the total hydroxycinnamic acid conjugates in fruit of most S. melongena accessions. It was recently found that the pair of these caffeoylquinic acid derivatives can compose 15-25% of the total hydroxycinnamic acid conjugates in fruits of S. incanum and wild S. melongena. This facilitated C(18) HPLC isolation and structural elucidation using (1)H and (13)C NMR techniques and HR-ToF-MS. The isomeric compounds were identified as 3-O-malonyl-5-O-(E)-caffeoylquinic acid (isomer 1) and 4-O-(E)-caffeoyl-5-O-malonylquinic acid (isomer 2). Both exhibited free radical scavenging activity, albeit about 4-fold lower than that of the flavonol quercetin dihydrate. By contrast, the iron chelation activities of isomers 1 and 2, respectively, were about 3- and 6-fold greater than that of quercetin dihydrate. Reports of malonylhydroxycinnamoylquinic acids are rare, and only a few of these compounds have been structurally elucidated using both NMR and MS techniques. To the authors' knowledge, these two malonylcaffeoylquinic acid isomers have not previously been reported.  相似文献

Mixtures of t,t conjugated linoleic acid methylester (t,t CLA-Me) isomers were prepared from synthetic CLA, consisting of 47.8% t10,c12 CLA; 45.5% c9,t11 CLA; 2.0% t,t CLA; and 4.7% others, by methylation with BF(3)/methanol (designated TT-TC/CT) in conjunction with purification at -68 degrees C for 24 h. The amount or composition of the TT-TC/CT was greatly affected by the concentration of BF(3) in methanol and the duration of methylation. The methylation of 50 mg of synthetic CLA for 30 min with 1 mL of 7.0% BF(3)/methanol produced a TT-TC/CT (21.54 mg) with the composition of 1.3% t12,t14; 5.9% t11,t13; 42.7% t10,t12; 44.0% t9,t11; 5.0% t8,t10; and 1.1% t 7,t9 CLA, whereas the methylation for 60 min with 14.0% BF(3)/methanol produced a TT-TC/CT (28.62 mg) with the composition of t,t CLA isomers different from that of TT-TC/CT by methylation for 30 min with 7.0% BF(3)/methanol. A large quantity of TT-TC/CT (14.15 g) with the composition similar to that of TT-TC/CT prepared from 50 mg of synthetic CLA was also prepared from 25 g of synthetic CLA. The purity of TT-TC/CT samples was greater than 98%. These results suggest that TT-TC/CT with a purity greater than 98% was easily prepared from synthetic CLA by BF(3)-catalyzed methylation, and the amount and composition of t,t CLA isomers of TT-TC/CT samples could be controlled by methylation conditions.  相似文献

A series of four isomeric 3,9-dihydroxymegastigma-4,6,7-trienes, 8, has been prepared. The (3S,6R,9S) isomer of 8 proved to be identical to an isomer of this compound tentatively identified as an intermediate in the formation of damascenone from an allene triol. Each of the four isomers, when hydrolyzed independently of each other at pH 3.0 and 25 degrees C, produced product mixtures in which the major product was damascenone (1). Contrary to expectation, 3-hydroxydamascone (5) was not observed in any of the hydrolyses. Consequently, the mechanism of formation of damascenone proposed earlier requires modification. In each hydrolysis, the product mixtures showed the presence of a second isomer of 8, produced by epimerization during hydrolysis. Chiral analysis on a Cyclosil B column revealed that this epimerization was occurring at C(3) in each of the hydrolyses.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine whether two of the major conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers, cis-9,trans-11 (c9,t11) and trans-10,cis-12 (t10,c12), are possible substrates for pulmonary 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) and, therefore, they are also involved in the production of 13(S)-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid [13(S)-HODE] in biological systems. 13(S)-HODE, a major bioactive metabolite of linoleic acid, is an important intracellular signal agent and is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation in various biological systems. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), a known LOX inhibitor, was used as a control for measuring 15-LOX-1 enzyme activity. It was found that c9,t11-CLA was 25% as active as linoleic acid as a substrate for 15-LOX-1; however, t10,c12-CLA was not a substrate for 15-LOX-1 as measured by 13(S)-HODE production. The authenticity of the production of 13(S)-HODE from c9,t11 as a substrate was established by isolation and cochromatography with pure standard on HPLC using non-radioactive and [14C]-c9,t11-CLA.  相似文献

A stable isotope dilution assay (SIDA) for the Alternaria mycotoxin tenuazonic acid was developed. Therefore, [(13)C(6),(15)N]-tenuazonic acid was synthesized from [(13)C(6),(15)N]-isoleucine by Dieckmann intramolecular cyclization after acetoacetylation with diketene. The synthesized [(13)C(6),(15)N]-tenuazonic acid was used as the internal standard for determination of tenuazonic acid in tomato products by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry after derivatization with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine. Method validation revealed a limit of detection of 0.1 μg/kg and a limit of quantitation of 0.3 μg/kg. Recovery was close to 100% in the range of 3-300 μg/kg. Determination of tenuazonic acid in two samples of different tomato ketchups (naturally contaminated) was achieved with a coefficient of variation of 2.3% and 4.7%. Different tomato products (n = 16) were analyzed for their content of tenuazonic acid using the developed SIDA. Values were between 15 and 195 μg/kg (tomato ketchup, n = 9), 363 and 909 μg/kg (tomato paste, n = 2), and 8 and 247 μg/kg (pureed tomatoes and comparable products, n = 5).  相似文献

Rumelenic (cis-9,trans-11,cis-15 18:3) acid is a naturally occurring conjugated isomer of alpha-linolenic acid (CLnA) in milk fat. Metabolism in rats was studied using a synthetic CLnA mixture, composed mainly by equimolar quantities of cis-9,trans-11,cis-15 and cis-9,trans-13,cis-15 CLnA isomers. Their metabolisms were studied by feeding high quantities of CLnA (150 mg/day) for 4 days to rats that had been reared on a fatfree diet for 2 weeks. After this period, animals were sacrificed and liver and epididymal adipose tissue lipids extracted. Six metabolites of the cis-9,trans-11,cis-15 18:3 CLnA isomers were identified as being cis-7,trans-9,cis-13 16:3, cis-11,trans-13,cis-17 20:3, cis-8,cis-11,trans-13,cis-17 20:4, cis-5,cis-8,cis-11,trans-13,cis-17 20:5, cis-7,cis-10,cis-13,trans-15,cis-19 22:5, and cis-4,cis-7,cis-10,cis-13,trans-15,cis-19 22:6 acids. Two metabolites of cis-9,trans-13,cis-15 18:3 CLnA isomer were also identified by GC-MS as being cis-7,trans-11,cis-13 16:3 and cis-5,cis-8,cis-11,trans-15,cis-17 20:5.  相似文献

Hydrogenated soybean oil was obtained after 10 min of hydrogenation with 0.5% selective type Ni catalyst at 230 degrees C, a hydrogenation pressure of 0.049 MPa, and an agitation rate of 300 rpm. The conjugated linoleic acid isomers in the hydrogenated soybean oil were isolated by using a silver ion-impregnated HPLC. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of 4,4-dimethyloxazoline (DMOX) derivatives of the isolated conjugated linoleic acid isomers were carried out for the identification of their chemical structures. By interpreting the mass spectra of the DMOX derivatives of conjugated linoleic acid isomers isolated by silver ion-impregnated HPLC, 20 different conjugated linoleic acid isomers present in hydrogenated soybean oil were identified. This is the first report for the mass spectrometric identification of the conjugated linoleic acid isomers present in hydrogenated vegetable oil.  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

Epoxyols are generally accepted as crucial intermediates in lipid oxidation. The reactivity of tert-butyl (9R,10S,11E,13S)-9, 10-epoxy-13-hydroxy-11-octadecenoate (11a,b) toward lysine moieties is investigated, employing N(2)-acetyllysine 4-methylcoumar-7-ylamide (12) as a model for protein-bound lysine. The prefixes R and S denote the relative configuration at the respective stereogenic centers. Independent synthesis and unequivocal structural characterization are reported for 11a,b, its precursors, and tert-butyl (9R,10R,11E, 13S)-10-(?5-(acetylamino)-6-[(4-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl)amino ]-6 -oxohexyl?amino)-9,13-dihydroxy-11-octadecenoate (13a-d). Reactions of 11a,b and 12 in 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (MP) and MP/water mixtures at pH 7.4 and 37 degrees C for 56 days show formation of the aminols 13a-d to be favored by an increased water content. The same trend is observed for hydrolytic cleavage of 11a,b to tert-butyl (E)-9,10, 13-trihydroxy-11-octadecenoate (14) and tert-butyl (E)-9,12, 13-trihydroxy-10-octadecenoate (15). Under the given conditions, aminolysis proceeds via an S(N)2 substitution, in contrast with the S(N)1 process for hydrolysis. In the MP/water (8:2) incubation, 15. 8% of 12 has been transformed to 13a-d and 10.5% of 11a,b hydrolyzed to the regioisomers 14 and 15 after 8 weeks, respectively. Aminolysis of alpha,beta-unsaturated epoxides by lysine moieties therefore is expected to be an important mode of interaction between proteins and lipid oxidation products.  相似文献

trans-Fatty acids in humans not only may be obtained exogenously from food intake but also could be generated endogenously in tissues. The endogenous generation of trans-fatty acids, especially in the cell membranes induced by radical stress, is an inevitable source for the living species. Thiyl radicals generated from thiols act as the catalyst for the cis-trans isomerization of fatty acids. Arachidonic acid (5c,8c,11c,14c-20:4) with only two of the four double bonds deriving from linoleic acid in the diet can be used to differentiate the exogenous or endogenous formation of double bonds. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effective compounds in preventing thiyl radical-induced trans-arachidonic acid formation during UV irradiation in vitro. The trans-arachidonic acids were found to be 75% after 30 min UV irradiation of all-cis-arachidonic acid. Myricetin, luteolin, and quercetin had the highest thiyl radical scavenging activities, whereas sesamol, gallic acid, and vitamins A, C, and E had the lowest. The structures of flavonoids with higher thiyl radical scavenging activities were a 3',4'-o-dihydroxyl group in the B ring and a 2,3-double bond combined with a 4-keto group in the C ring. These effective compounds found in the present work may be used as lead compounds for the potential inhibitors in the formation of trans-fatty acids in vivo.  相似文献

With the aid of multilayer coil countercurrent chromatography, subsequent acetylation, and liquid chromatographic purification of a glycosidic mixture obtained from lulo (Solanum quitoense L.) leaves, three C(13)-norisoprenoid glucoconjugates were isolated in pure form. Their structures were elucidated by NMR, MS, and CD analyses to be the novel (6R,9R)-13-hydroxy-3-oxo-alpha-ionol 9-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4a), the uncommon (3S,5R,8R)-3, 5-dihydroxy-6,7-megastigmadien-9-one 5-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (citroside A) (5a), and the known (6S,9R)-vomifoliol 9-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (6a). Enzymatic treatment of compound 5a showed the formation of 3-hydroxy-7,8-didehydro-beta-ionone (7), an important lulo peeling volatile, which in its turn after chemical reduction and heated acid catalyzed rearrangement generates beta-damascenone (9) and 3-hydroxy-beta-damascone (10).  相似文献

A new method for rapid determination of thiol‒ (R‒SH) and disulfide (R‒S‒S‒R′) sulfur in soil and foliage samples is presented. Using a silver sulfide electrode, the thiol sulfur content of a sample is determined by potentiometric titration with AgNO3. After reduction with a mixture of NaOH and ascorbic acid also its disulfide S content can be quantified subsequent to neutralization of the reductive solution with citric acid. The method was tested with eight organic standards, six humic soil samples, and three Norway spruce needle samples. Disulfide S from standards with abstrictable H‒atoms in α‒ or β‒position to the disulfide bond could — with one exception — be detected completely. For the aromatic disulfides which allow only direct nucleophilic attack, recovery was at 75%. For the soil samples, 32 to 60% of the carbon‒bonded S consisted of disulfide S, for the spruce needle samples 26 to 33%. The method provides satisfactory results for most studied standards and is applicable to various natural substances after adequate sample preparation.  相似文献

Microbial conversions of unsaturated fatty acids often generate polyhydroxy fatty acids, giving them new properties such as higher viscosity and reactivity. A bacterial strain Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PR3) has been intensively studied to produce mono-, di-, and trihydroxy fatty acids from different 9-cis-monoenoic fatty acids such as oleic acid, ricinoleic acid, and palmitoleic acid. However, from the results and the postulated similar metabolic pathways involved in these transformations, it was assumed that the enzyme system involved in transformation of the monoenoic fatty acid by strain PR3 could utilize fatty acids with different chain lengths and locations of the double bond. In this study was used as a substrate for bioconversion by strain PR3 eicosenoic acid (C20:1, ω-9) containing a singular cis double bond at different positions from the carboxyl end as oleic acid, and it was confirmed that PR3 could produce a novel 9,12-dihydroxy-10(E)-eicosenoic acid (DED) with 6.2% yield from eicosenoic acid. The structure of DED was confirmed using GC-MS, FTIR, and NMR analyses. DED production was maximized at 72 h after the substrate was added to the 24 h culture. Some other nutritional factors were also studied for optimal production of DED.  相似文献

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

On the basis of a stable isotope dilution assay and derivatization with 2-mercaptobenzoic acid, the presence of the carcinogenic glycidamide ( 2) in processed foods was verified for the first time. Using (13)C-labeled 2 as the internal standard and the formation of the thioether derivatives, a new stable isotope dilution assay for the quantitation of 2 was developed. Application of the method on several potato samples revealed amounts between 0.3 and 1.5 mug/kg depending on the processing conditions. In a model experiment, the formation of 2 by an epoxidation of the double bond in acrylamide, that is, by a reaction with linoleic acid hydroperoxides, was established. This result was in good agreement with data showing that French fries processed in sunflower oil, which is high in linoleic acid, contained more 2 as compared to fries prepared in coconut oil. The derivatization procedure allows the simultaneous quantitation of acrylamide and glycidamide in foods.  相似文献

Lemongrass is a popular Asian herb having a lemon-like flavor. Very recently, potent tyrosinase inhibitory activity has been found in lemongrass in addition to various biological activities reported in the literature. The aim of the present study is to identify the active compounds in the lemongrass. An assay-guided purification revealed that one of the active substances was geranic acid. Geranic acid has two stereoisomers, which are responsible for the trans and cis geometry on the conjugated double bond. Both isomers are present in the active ethyl acetate-soluble extract of the lemongrass, and their IC50 values were calculated to be 0.14 and 2.3 mM, respectively. The structure requirement of geranic acid for the potent tyrosinase inhibitory activity was investigated using geranic acid-related compounds.  相似文献

The effects of hydrogen temperature and agitation rate on the formation of total conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) and CLA isomers were studied during hydrogenation with a selective Ni catalyst. The CLA isomers were identified by using a 100-m cyano-capillary column gas chromatograph and a silver ion-impregnated HPLC. Reaction temperature and agitation rate greatly affected the quantities of total CLA and individual CLA isomers, and the time to reach the maximum quantity of CLA in the partially hydrogenated soybean oil. As the hydrogenation temperature increased, the maximum quantity of CLA in soybean oil increased, but the time to reach the maximum CLA content decreased. By increasing the hydrogenation temperature from 170 to 210 degrees C, the quantity of CLA obtained was about 2.6 times higher. As the agitation rate decreased, the CLA formation in soybean oil increased, and the time to reach the maximum CLA content also increased. The maximum CLA contents in soybean oil obtained during hydrogenation at 210 degrees C with agitation rates of 300, 500, and 700 rpm were 162.82, 108.62, and 66.15 mg total CLA/g oil, respectively. The present data showed that it is possible to produce high-CLA-content soybean oil without major modification of fatty acid composition by short-time (10 min) selective hydrogenation under high temperature and low agitation rate conditions.  相似文献

The biotransformation of (+/-)-linalool was investigated by screening 19 fungi. Product accumulation was enhanced by substrate feeding and, for the first time, lilac aldehydes and lilac alcohols were identified as fungal biotransformation byproduct using SPME-GC-MS headspace analysis. Aspergillus niger DSM 821, Botrytis cinerea 5901/02, and B. cinerea 02/FBII/2.1 produced different isomers of lilac aldehyde and lilac alcohol from linalool via 8-hydroxylinalool as postulated intermediate. Linalool oxides and 8-hydroxylinalool were the major products of fungal (+/-)-linalool biotransformations. Furanoid trans-(2 R,5 R)- and cis-(2 S,5 R)-linalool oxide as well as pyranoid trans-(2 R,5 S)- and cis-(2 S, 5 S)-linalool oxide were identified as the main stereoisomers with (3 S,6 S)-6,7-epoxylinalool and (3 R,6 S)-6,7-epoxylinalool as postulated key intermediates of fungal (+/-)-linalool oxyfunctionalization, respectively. With a conversion yield close to 100% and a productivity of 120 mg/L.day linalool oxides, Corynespora cassiicola DSM 62485 was identified as a novel highly stereoselective linalool transforming biocatalyst showing the highest productivity reported so far.  相似文献

The antioxidant activity of some esters of ferulic acid with the linear fatty alcohols C7, C8 (branched and linear), C9, C11, C12, C13, C15, C16, and C18 has been studied in homogeneous and heterogeneous phases. Whereas in homogeneous phase all of the alkyl ferulates possessed similar radical-scavenging abilities, in rat liver microsomes they showed striking differences, the more effective being C12 (7) (IC50 = 11.03 M), linear C8 (3) (IC50 = 12.40 microM), C13 (8) (IC50 = 18.60 microM), and C9 (5) (IC50 = 19.74 microM), followed by C7 (2), C15 (9), C11 (6), branched C8 (4), C16 (10), and C18 (11) (ferulic acid was the less active, IC50 = 243.84 microM). All of the molecules showed similar partition coefficients in an octanol-buffer system. Three-dimensional studies (NMR in solution, modeling in vacuo) indicate that this behavior might be due to a different anchorage of the molecules with the ester side chain to the microsomal phospholipid bilayer and to a consequent different orientation/positioning of the scavenging phenoxy group outside the membrane surface against the flux of oxy radicals.  相似文献

Sixteen carotenoids were isolated from the flesh of Brazilian red guavas (Psidium guajava L.). Their structures were established by means of UV-visible, 400 and 500 MHz (1)H NMR, 120 and 125 MHz (13)C NMR, mass, and circular dichroism spectra. The carotenoids were identified as phytofluene, (all-E)-, (9Z)-, (13Z)-, and (15Z)-beta-carotene, (all-E)-gamma-carotene, (all-E)-, (9Z)-, (13Z)-, and (15Z)-lycopene, (all-E,3R)-beta-cryptoxanthin, (all-E, 3R)-rubixanthin, (all-E,3S,5R,8S)-cryptoflavin, (all-E,3R,3'R, 6'R)-lutein, (all-E,3S,5R,6R,3'S,5'R,8'R)-, and (all-E,3S,5R,6R,3'S, 5'R,8'S)-neochrome. Thirteen of the carotenoids identified are reported as guava carotenoids for the first time.  相似文献
