Abstract

Gas chromatography/olfactometry (GC/O) based on dilution analysis (e. g., CharmAnalysis or aroma extraction dilution analysis) gives an indication of what compounds are most important (most potent) to the aroma of foods. The application of solid phase microextraction to the preparation of samples for GC/O dilution analysis was shown to be feasible by varying the fiber thickness and length to achieve various absorbant volumes.

DNA-damaging potential and glutathione depletion of 2-cyclohexene-1-one in mammalian cells, compared to food relevant 2-alkenals.

2-Cyclohexene-1-one (CHX) occurs as a natural ingredient in some tropical fruits and has been detected as a contaminant in certain artificially sweetened soft drinks. To elucidate its cytotoxic/genotoxic effectiveness, CHX was tested in mammalian cell lines (V79 and Caco-2) and in primary human colon cells in comparison to structurally related 2-alkenals. Inhibition of cell growth (IC(50)) and cytotoxicity (LC(50)) were determined by protein staining with sulforhodamin B (SRB) and by trypan blue exclusion, respectively. DNA damage--both strand breaks and oxidised purines--was quantified by comet assay. Depletion of glutathione was measured in a kinetic assay, based on 5-thio-2-nitrobenzoate (TNB) formation. For CHX, a moderate cytotoxicity was observed after 1h incubation in V79 cells (LC(50): 4.75mM). The 2-alkenals ((E)-2-octenal (OCTE), (2E,4Z)-2,4-hexadienal (HEXDI), (E)-2-nonenal (NONE), (2E,6Z)-2,6-nonadienal (NONDI)) exhibited a distinctly higher cytotoxicity, except for (E)-2-hexenal (HEX) (LC(50): 3.67mM) and cinnamaldehyde (CA) (LC(50): 4.45mM). If the incubation time was prolonged to 24h, an IC(50) of 15microM was obtained for CHX which is well within the range obtained for the 2-alkenals (4 and 17microM). Concentration-dependent DNA damage was observed after 1h incubation with CHX. The respective DC(50) values (concentration inducing DNA damage in 50% of cells) were 272microM (V79) and 455microM (Caco-2). All 2-alkenals were more active under these conditions, except for CA. In primary human colon cells, CHX (800microM, 30min) exhibited a weak, but still significant DNA-damaging potential. Glutathione levels in V79 cells were effectively depleted (down to approximately 20%) by CHX concentrations not yet inducing DNA damage (c < or = 50microM). Incubation with CHX or 2-alkenals (50 and 100microM, 1h), followed by H2O2 treatment (5min, 25microM) resulted in increased levels of oxidised purines in the modified comet assay. CHX and HEX, additionally tested in primary human colon cells, depleted glutathione and increased the sensitivity towards oxidative stress.

Synthesis, characterisation and crystal structures of Schiff bases from the reaction of 4,6-O-ethylidene-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine with substituted salicylaldehydes.

Multiple chemical modifications were carried out on D-glucose to result in the corresponding Schiff bases. Such modifications performed on D-glucose not only helped in increasing the solubility of the products in nonaqueous solvents, but also restricted the anomerisation of the saccharide moiety in solution. NMR study of the products revealed the presence of the beta-anomeric form of the saccharide moiety in Me(2)SO solution. All the compounds were characterised by analytical and spectral methods. The literature is devoid of any crystal structures of saccharide-Schiff base combinations of the type reported in this paper. The crystal structures of these molecules exhibited a tridentate, ONO binding core. These studies further revealed that the compounds in the solid state were in the beta-D-pyranose form with the (4)C(1) chair conformation. The compounds exhibited interesting lattice structures assisted through weak interactions of the type O-H...O and C-H...O. The lattice structure of one of these compounds exhibited channels filled with chloroform molecules.

Synthesis of L-4,4-difluoroglutamic acid via nucleophilic addition to a chiral aldehyde.

Fluorine-containing derivatives of amino acids are assuming increasing importance as probes of biological function and enzyme mechanism. We now report a new, flexible route to enantiomerically pure L-4,4-difluoroglutamic acid that exploits the addition of difluorinated nucleophiles to configurationally stable alpha-aminoaldehydes. Conversion of the difluorinated adducts to L-4,4-difluoroglutamic acid can be accomplished in three steps by Barton-McCombie dehydroxylation and acid hydrolysis.
