Chromatographically pure porphyrin esters free from metalloporphyrins were titrated with Cu2+ to determine the molar amount of porphyrin present. The end point of the titration was defined by a t.l.c. method detecting traces of metal-free porphyrin ester in admxture to its copper complex. From spectrometric measurement at the Soret maximum and the molar amounts found by the titration, epsilonM was calculated for proto-, copro-, penta-, hexa- and hepta-carboxylic and uro-porphyrin permethyl esters. The values for uroporphyrin showed perfect agreement with those of previous workers, whereas those for coproporphyrin were about 5% lower and those for protoporphyrin more than 20% lower. The implications of the findings are discussed. Determinations of epsilonM of some higher esters (ethyl to pentyl) and some partial methyl esters with one carboxyl group free are also presented. 相似文献

We report the negative ion chemical ionization mass spectra of 2,4-dinitrophenyl (DNP) amino acid methyl esters. For the common amino acids, these derivatives exhibit very simple mass spectra; the molecular anion is the base peak in all cases. The electrophilicity of the DNP group allows selective and sensitive ionization. Amino acids can be identified singly or in mixtures by their molecular weights, and picomole detection is possible. Chromatography is only needed for Leu/Ile differentiation. Amino-terminal analysis of proteins is demonstrated. 相似文献

A technique is described for the high-pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) analysis of sebum lipid classes. The lipid classes present in sebum are separated by gradient elution HPLC from a microparticulate silica column and detected using a moving-wire detector. The system described can be linked to a computer. Quantitation can be carried out by comparing peak areas obtained with those of an internal standard. Peak trapping for further investigations of the separated components, for example by gas chromatography—mass spectrometry, is very easy.Sebum lipids are separated into the following lipid classes: hydrocarbons and squalene, cholesterol esters and wax esters, fatty acids as their methyl esters, triglycerides, 1,3-diglycerides, 1,2-diglycerides, free cholesterol, monoglycerides and other polar materials. Besides to sebum, the method has been successfully applied to other lipid mixtures, such as serum lipids. Examples of other applications are shown. 相似文献

Abstract By different chemical, spectral and chromatographic procedures seven carotenoids, two carotenes (α- and β-carotene) and five free xanthophylls (violaxanthin, lutein, antheraxanthin, zeaxanthin and neoxanthin) have been isolated and identified in green apple leaves. In autumn senescing leaves, besides the above seven carotenoids, the occurrence of at least seven xanthophyll esters has also been proved. Four esters, violaxanthin mono- and diester and lutein mono- and diester, (≥90% of total esters) and a minor component, neoxanthin triester, have been identified. Another minor component is most probably a monoester of antheraxanthin; the seventh, present in traces, has not been identified. The fatty acids combined with the above xanthophyll esters have been analysed by gas-chromatography. The unusual presence of low molecular weight fatty acids, C7-C11, has been registered (1,5-8% of the total); caprilic and capric acids have been identified. Lauric acid with three minor homologous (2-7% and myristic acid (9-15%) are also present. The major component, palmitic acid, with palmitoleic and two other minor components, reaches 36-44%. In addition a remarkable presence of oleic acid (12-26%) has been observed together with stearic (8-10%), linolenic (5-6%), arachidic (0,7-2,5%) and linolenic-gadoleic acids (2,5-9,3%). 相似文献

The use of a highly polar capillary column permits gas chromatographic analysis of organic acids as methyl esters. This method has found use in the study of end products of anaerobic bacteria. In addition, it also permits the detection of nonvolatile sulphur compounds which are neglected on the usual packed columns. These compounds have been identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry as methyl esters of 3-(methylthio)-propanoic acid and 4-(methylthio)-butanoic acid. When certain species were grown in a medium supplemented with 0·4% (w/v) DL-methionine, the relative amounts of both acids increased significantly. These nonvolatile sulphur compounds may serve as markers for specific bacteria. 相似文献

The first investigation of nucleophilic addition of glycine esters to Gd@C82 is reported and hydroxyl was found to compete with glycine esters in the reaction. The multiple adducts containing either mere glycine esters or both glycine esters and hydroxyl group were identified by MALDI TOF mass spectrometry and characterized with UV-Vis-NIR spectrometry. Because glycine ethyl ester is more soluble than glycine methyl ester in alcohol and toluene, as many as eight glycine ethyl ester groups can be added to the metallofullerene cage while the maximal number for glycine methyl ester groups is only four. 相似文献

Homologues to Carboxylesterase NP and Candida rugosa lipase, used for the chiral separation of racemic mixtures of 2-arylpropionic methyl esters, were identified by BLAST searches of available genome sequences for hyperthermophilic microorganisms. Two potential candidates were identified: a putative lysophospholipase from Pyrococcus furiosus (Pfu-LPL) and a carboxylesterase from Sulfolobus solfataricus P1 (Sso-EST1). Although both enzymes showed hydrolytic preference toward the (S) methyl ester, only Sso-EST1 yielded highly optically pure (S) naproxen (%ee(p) >/= 90) and was thus further investigated. Changes in pH or reaction time showed little improvement in %ee(p) or E values with Sso-EST1. However, the addition of 25% methanol resulted in a 25% increase in E. The effect of various cosolvents on the enantiomeric ratio showed no correlation with the log P or dielectric constant values of the solvent. However, an inverse relationship between E and the denaturation capacity (DC) of the water miscible cosolvents was observed. This was attributed to an increase in enzyme flexibility with increasing solvent DC values leading to a concomitant reduction in the resolving power of Sso-EST1. The results here show that although bioinformatics tools can be used to select candidate biocatalysts for chiral resolution of 2-arylpropionic esters, biochemical characterization is needed to definitively determine functional characteristics. 相似文献

Fatty acid methyl esters were separated into fractions according to chain length on a nonpolar gas-liquid chromatographic column. These fractions were collected and rechromatographed on a polar column. Temperature programming was used in both cases. Data are given for the accuracy of the double procedure applied to a synthetic mixture. 相似文献

This investigation was carried out to develop methods for a reverse-phase, high-performance liquid chromatography analysis of the monocarboxylic and dicarboxylic acids produced by permanganate-periodate oxidation of monoenoic fatty acids. Oxidation reactions were performed using [U-14C]oleic acid and [U-14C]oleic acid methyl ester in order to measure reaction yields and product distributions. The 14C-labeled oxidation products consisted of nearly equal amounts of monocarboxylic and dicarboxylic acid (or dicarboxylic acid monomethyl ester), with few side products (yield greater than 98%). Conversion of the carboxylic acids to phenacyl esters proceeded to completion. HPLC of carboxylic acid phenacyl esters was performed using a C18 column with a linear solvent gradient beginning with acetonitrile/water (1/1) and ending with 100% acetonitrile. Excellent resolution was achieved for all components of a mixture of C5 through C12 monocarboxylic acid phenacyl esters and C6 through C11 dicarboxylic acid phenacyl esters. Resolution was also achieved for all components of a mixture of C5 through C12 monocarboxylic acid phenacyl esters and C6 through C11 dicarboxylic acid monomethyl, monophenacyl esters. The resolution obtained by HPLC demonstrates that, for a wide range of monoenoic fatty acids, both products of a permanganate-periodate oxidation can be identified on a single chromatogram. Free fatty acids and fatty acid methyl esters were analyzed with equal success. Neither the oxidation nor the esterification reaction caused detectable hydrolysis of methyl ester. The method is illustrated for free acids and methyl esters of 14:1 (cis-9), 16:1 (cis-9), 18:1 (cis-6), 18:1 (cis-9), and 18:1 (cis-11). 相似文献

Transesterification of canola oil was carried out with methanol, ethanol, and various mixtures of methanol/ethanol, keeping the molar ratio of oil to alcohol 1:6 and using KOH as a catalyst. Mixtures of alcohol increased the rate of transesterification reaction and produced methyl as well as ethyl esters. The increased rate was result of better solubility of oil in reaction mixture due to better solvent properties of ethanol than methanol and equilibrium due to methanol. With 3:3 molar ratio of methanol to ethanol {MEE (3:3)} the amount of ethyl ester formed was 50% that of methyl ester. Properties (acid value, viscosity, density) of all esters including mixed esters were within the limits of ASTM standards. Lubricities of these esters are in the order: ethyl ester>methyl ethyl ester>methyl ester. 相似文献

The methyl esters of carboxylic acids are characteristic olfactory volatile compounds for the sweet aroma of snake fruit, (Salacca edulis, Reinw) cv. Pondoh. Although methanol was not detected as a volatile constituent, the crude enzymes showed activity to synthesize the methyl esters in the presence of acyl-CoA and methanol. Therefore, the biosynthetic origin of methanol was investigated, resulting in the detection of pectin methyl transferase activity in the flesh. This pectin methyl transferase activity increased during fruit maturation, in parallel with the level of methanol originating from hand-squeezed juice and with the methyl esters extracted from flesh of the fruit. Based on these results, the origin of methanol was confirmed to be the methyl esters of pectins. The crude enzyme also catalyzed the formation of methyl hexanoate, one of the esters of the fruit, in the presence of methyl pectins and hexanoyl-CoA that were used as precursors for a model reaction. 相似文献

Identification of foodborne bacteria by infrared spectroscopy using cellular fatty acid methyl esters 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Identification of bacterial species by profiling fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) has commonly been carried out by using a 20-min capillary gas chromatographic procedure followed by library matching of FAME profiles using commercial MIDI databases and proprietary pattern recognition software. Fast GC (5 min) FAME procedures and mass spectrometric methodologies that require no lipid separation have also been reported. In this study, bacterial identification based on the rapid (2 min) infrared measurement of FAME mixtures was demonstrated. The microorganisms investigated included Gram positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus anthracis, and Bacillus cereus, and Gram negative bacteria from the family Enterobacteriacae: Yersinia enterocolitica, Salmonella typhimurium, Shigella sonnei, and Escherichia coli (four strains of E. coli), and non-Enterobacteriacae: Vibrio cholerae, Vibrio vulnificus, and Vibrio parahemolyticus. Foodborne bacterial mixtures of FAMEs were measured by using an attenuated total reflection (ATR)-Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic procedure and discriminated by multivariate analysis. Results showed that the Enterobacteriacae could be discriminated from the vibrios. The identification was at the level of species (for the Bacillus and Vibrio genera) or strains (for the E. coli species). A series of bacterial FAME test samples were prepared and analyzed for accuracy of identification, and all were correctly identified. Our results suggest that this infrared strategy could be used to identify foodborne pathogens. 相似文献

The pentane extract of the social spider, Anelosimus eximius (Araneae, Theridiidae), contains hydrocarbons, fatty acids and their methyl esters, and a series of novel propyl esters of long-chain methyl-branched fatty acids. The propyl esters comprise almost three-fourths of the extract and consist predominantly of odd-numbered carbon chain components. Mass spectrometric analyses of the propyl esters, their methyl esters and cyanide derivatives showed that mono-, di- and trimethyl branched components with methyl branches on even numbered carbons predominate. The major components are propyl 4,20- and 4,30-dimethylhentriacontanoate and propyl 6,20- and 6,30-trimethylhentriacontanoate. The hydrocarbon fraction consists of n-, monomethyl- and dimethylalkanes, containing a relatively high proportion of even-numbered carbon chain components. The abundance of even-numbered carbon chain length alkanes and odd-numbered carbon chain length fatty acyl groups, along with abundant methyl-branches suggest that the propionyl-CoA and its carboxylated product, methylmalonyl-CoA, play important roles in the biosynthesis of these unique waxes.

The 3-O-acyl derivatives of serine and threonine have been prepared by reacting oleoyl chloride and palmitoyl chloride with N-t-butoxycarbonyl (N-T-BOC) serine and N-t-BOC threonine. The t-BOC group was removed by treatment with 4 N HCl in dioxane. The products were identified by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis and chromatographic properties. The O-acyl serines and O-acyl threonines were converted to their methyl esters by treatment with boron trifluoride in methanol and were converted to their dinitrophyl derivatives by treatment with dinitrofluorobenzen (DNFB). The yield of the dinitrophenyl derivatives was very high but the yield of methyl esters was low due mainly to methanolysis and loss of the fatty acyl group. The O-acyl serines and O-acyld threonines prepared will provide standards for researchers who are interested in identifying fatty acids esterified to serine and threonine hydroxyl groups in membrane proteins. 相似文献

Synthesis of mixed esters of ascorbic acid using methyl esters of palm and soybean oils 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Mixed esters of ascorbic acid were synthesized using methyl esters of palm and soybean oils as acyl donors, in acetone at 50 degrees C, and catalyzed by Novozym 435. A conversion of 62% was obtained with palm oil methyl ester at an ascorbic acid to acyl donor molar ratio of 1:4; the mixed ester contained 45.89% ascorbyl palmitate, 42.59% ascorbyl oleate and 10.1% ascorbyl linoleate. Acylation with soybean oil methyl ester resulted in 17% conversion, yielding a mixed ester containing 10.08% ascorbyl palmitate, 20.68% ascorbyl oleate, and 64.96% of ascorbyl linoleate. The mixed esters of ascorbic acid can find direct use in food and cosmetics. 相似文献

The multilamellar wall secreted by protoplasts isolated from locule tissue of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) fruit was purified, and an extract was obtained after depolymerization with BF3-methanol. Analysis of this extract using thin layer chromatography demonstrated the presence of fatty acid methyl esters, fatty alcohols, dicarboxylic acid dimethyl esters, and ω-hydroxy acid methyl esters. These components were quantified using an Iatroscan thin layer chromatography-flame ionization detection system. The different chain lengths in each group were identified and quantified using gas chromatography. The results clearly indicated the presence of suberin. 相似文献

The gas chromatographic analysis of glycidol esters and mono-, di-,and triglycerides of palmitic-, stearic-, and oleic acid mixtures is described. The composition of the products was determined by gas chromatography on OV-17 after trimethylsilylation. Base-line separations between 1- and 2-monoglycerides and between 1,2- and 1,3-diglycerides were obtained. Isomerisation of the trimethylsilyl ethers of monoglycerides was not observed, contrary to published work. 相似文献

Solvent-dependency of the antiradical reaction of protocatechuic acid (3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, PA) and its esters has been investigated. In aprotic solvents, methyl protocatechuate (PAMe) was readily oxidized by two molar equivalents of DPPH radical and converted to protocatechuquinone methyl ester (PQMe). On the other hand, in alcoholic solvents such as methanol, PAMe rapidly consumed five radicals in 30 min and changed to complex oxidized mixtures. A 1H-NMR analysis of the reaction mixture of PAMe and DPPH radical in methanol showed that PAMe was rapidly converted to PQMe and its 3-hemiacetal. In addition, a signal of 2-methoxy-PQMe 3-hemiacetal was also detected in the reaction mixture. The results suggested that PQMe undergoes a nucleophilic attack by the solvent alcohol molecule at the C-2 of the ring in methanol, leading to a regeneration of catechol structure, which accounts well for the higher DPPH radical scavenging activity of PAMe in alcohols than in aprotic solvents. 相似文献

Analyses of various lipid fractions of sections of cucumbers and of good and bloated dill pickles showed that marked changes occur in all lipid fractions during fermentation. The most striking difference noted was the decrease in the phospholipid fraction. A nearly fourfold increase in free fatty acid, as well as a marked increase in the neutral fat fatty acids and unsaponifiables, occurred. Gas chromatographic analyses of the methyl esters of fatty acids from the various lipid fractions yielded further interesting data. From the analyses, 41 esters were identified; however, 16 of the esters accounted for at least 95% of the acids. Among the marked changes were the increases in linoleic and linolenic acids in good pickles, in contrast to the increase in oleic acid in the bloated pickles. The presence of tridecenoic acid in cucumbers, and its absence in pickles; and the absence of caproic, caprylic, and capric acids in cucumbers, and its presence in pickles, were interesting. The data demonstrated that the lipid alterations that occur during fermentation of cucumbers are analogous to those previously reported for the sauerkraut fermentation. 相似文献

Whereas lactose did not undergo a base-catalyzed transesterification with methyl esters of fatty acids, methyl beta-lactoside reacted under identical conditions to give mono- and di-myristates. This difference in behavior is explained in terms of the formation of an unreactive, internally chelated potassium-lactose complex. Supporting evidence for this hypothesis is the observed change in the anomeric equilibrium of lactose in the presence of potassium carbonate. The monomyristates of methyl beta-lactoside were assigned the structures of 3' and 6' derivatives, and it is concluded that the diesters are the 3',6', and 6,6' derivatives. 相似文献
