Abstract

A new method for processing diffusion ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) data is presented. This method, the regularized resolvent transform (iRRT-the i denoting the adaptation of the method to evaluate the inverse Laplace transform), is better than conventional processing techniques for generating 2D DOSY spectra using data that has poor chemical shift resolution. From the same data, it is possible to use the iRRT to generate 1D subspectra corresponding to different components of the sample mixture; these subspectra compare favorably to 1D spectra of the pure substances. Both the 2D spectra and the 1D subspectra offer a vast improvement over results generated using a conventional processing technique (non-linear least-squares fitting). Consequently, we present the iRRT as a stable and reliable tool for solving the inverse Laplace transform problem present in experiments such as DOSY.

Timing of intensity perception of a polar vs nonpolar aroma compound in the presence of added vegetable fat in milk.

Differences in timing of intensity perception of the retronasal aroma of a nonpolar (linalool) vs polar (diacetyl) compound when the matrix (milk) fat content was varied (0%, 1%, 5%, or 10% rapeseed oil) were studied using a time-intensity method. Aromas were also evaluated by orthonasal means and with static headspace gas chromatography (GC). With increasing fat content, linalool was considerably retained in the matrix, while the release of diacetyl was not affected. As little as 1% fat was sufficient to significantly reduce the volatility (GC results) of linalool and orthonasal, but not retronasal, intensity. No effect of fat was found on the rate of linalool release. The linalool perception of the sample containing the greatest amount of fat lasted a shorter time than that of the samples containing less fat; however, the decrease in intensity perception was steeper in lower fat samples. The observed temporal release of linalool partly challenges the often-repeated statement that reduction of fat results in a more rapid and shorter aroma release.

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of (E)-3,7-dimethyl-2-octene-1,8-diol isolated from the hairpencils of male Danaus chrysippus (African Monarch).

The synthesis of (E)-3,7-dimethyl-2-octene-1,8-diol (1), which was isolated from the hairpencils of male Danaus chrysippus (African Monarch), was investigated. The key step of the sequence involves asymmetric desymmetrization of the 1,3-propanediol 7 with lipase, in which high enantioselectivity was observed. Total synthesis afforded (S)-1 in 12 steps and 26% overall yield from readily available geraniol.

Inhibition of citrus postharvest pathogens by vapor of citral and related compounds in culture.

The vapors of citral, its isomers geranial and neral, and its related compounds were examined for their effect on Penicillium digitatum, Penicillium italicum, and Geotrichum candidum, the major fungi responsible for postharvest spoilage of citrus. Vapor of citral and its two isomers generated from 15 microL L(-1) aqueous solutions in Petri dishes inhibited development of the three pathogens, with concentrations of 2-6 microL L(-1) also being effective against P. italicum. Vapors of citral and geranial from 15 microL L(-1) solutions were fungicidal to P. digitatum and G. candidum, while neral was fungicidal to G. candidum. Citral-related compounds were much less effective, with effectiveness decreasing from citronellal to citronellol and citronellic acid. R and S isomers of these three citral-related compounds generally had similar effects on the fungi tested.
