Application of headspace analysis to the study of aroma compounds-lipids interactions

1998

Taking into account interactions between aroma compounds and food components is necessary to better manage the flavoring of food products. These interactions occur at a molecular level and reflect changes, at a macroscopic level, in thermodynamic equilibria, such as solubility or volatility. The rate of transfer of an aroma compound from the liquid to the vapor phase can be affected as well. The behavior of aroma compounds in water and lipid solutions was studied in two complementary ways, a thermodynamic and a kinetic approach (head-space analysis). The transfer rate of volatiles at the liquid-water interface does not only depend on the hydrophobicity of the aroma compounds. Vapor-liquid p…

A novel synthesis of polymers with anthracene and dihydroanthracene subunits in the main chain

1993

A new polycondensation method to connect redox-active and chromophoric subunits by forming a C-C bond and leading to a polyhydrocarbon is described. 1,ω-bis(9,10-Dihydro-9-anthry)alkanes with various alkylene spacers can be deprotonated by butyllithium to afford a monoanion in each dihydroanthracene moiety. Alkylation with dielectrophiles such as dibromoalkanes yields soluble polymers with dihydroanthracene units in the main chain. The reaction proceeds regioselectively in the 9,10-position. Aromatization generates a polymer with anthracene units. The molecular weights are determined by GPC up to Mn = 10 000. To prove the structure and to calibrate the GPC, suitable model compounds were syn…

UHPLC-Orbitrap mass spectrometric characterization of organic aerosol from a central European city (Mainz, Germany) and a Chinese megacity (Beijing)

2018

Abstract Fine urban aerosol particles with aerodynamic equivalent dimeter ≤2.5 μm (PM2.5) were collected in Mainz (a city within the Rhine-Main area, the third largest metropolitan region in Germany) and Beijing (Chinese megacity). A solvent mixture of acetonitrile-water was used to extract the organic aerosol fraction (OA) from the particle samples. The extracts were analyzed by an ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometer (UHRMS) Orbitrap coupled with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) both in the negative and positive ion mode. The number of compounds observed in Beijing is a factor of 2–10 higher compared to Mainz. The clear differences on chemical composition of OA in th…

Selective oxidation of aromatic alcohols in the presence of C3N4 photocatalysts derived from the polycondensation of melamine, cyanuric and barbituri…

2021

AbstractA set of C3N4 samples has been prepared by using melamine, cyanuric acid and barbituric acid as the precursors. The materials were subjected both to physical and chemical characterization and were used as photocatalysts for the selective oxidation of aromatic alcohols in water suspension under UV and visible irradiation. The photoactivity of the materials versus the partial oxidation of four substituted benzyl alcohols was investigated. The type and position of the substituents in the aromatic molecule influenced conversion and selectivity to the corresponding aldehyde. The presence of barbituric and cyanuric acids in the preparation method has changed the graphitic-C3N4 structure, …

Geometric and electronic structure of dithiapyranylidine: evolution upon oxidation

1993

Abstract We present a theoretical investigation of the modifications that successive oxidation induces on the geometric and electronic structures of the π-electron donor dithiapyranylidene. The lengthening of the double bonds and the shortening of the single bonds calculated as the molecular charge increases indicate a gain of aromaticity with oxidation. Both the geometricand the electronic structure of dithiapyranylidene show a clear evolution towards those of biphenyl as oxidation takes place.

Synthesis, characterization, and complexation of tetraarylborates with aromatic cations and their use in chemical sensors.

2005

Five aromatic borate anions, namely tetrakis(4-phenoxyphenyl)borate (1), tetrakis(biphenyl)borate (2), tetrakis(2-naphthyl)borate (3), tetrakis(4-phenylphenol)borate (4), and tetrakis(4-phenoxy)borate (5), have been prepared and tested as ion-recognition sites in chemical sensors for certain aromatic cations and metal ions. To gain further insight into the complexation of the cations, some complexes have been prepared and structurally characterized. The complexation behavior of 1 and 2 towards N-methylpyridinium (6), 1-ethyl-4-(methoxycarbonyl)pyridinium (7), tropylium (8), imidazolium (9), and 1-methylimidazolium (10) cations has been studied, and the stability constants of the complexes o…

Study of peak shape and efficiency in butyl acrylate-based monolithic columns for capillary electrochromatography.

2009

Abstract The study and modelling peak shape of in capillary electrochromatography (CEC), obtained using butyl acrylate (BA)-based monolithic columns, is described in this article. A modified-Gaussian model, which is a function of conventional experimental parameters: retention time (tR), peak height (H0) and standard deviation (σ0) at the peak maximum, and left (A) and right (B) halfwidths, was used to describe the peaks of thiourea and several polyaromatic hydrocarbons compounds, which were eluted under several applied voltages. A mean relative error below 2% in the prediction of peak shape is obtained. Based on peak parameters, an easy and reliable estimation of global chromatographic per…

Untersuchungen von polymeren im massenspektrometer, 3. Fragmentierungsreaktionen oligomerer benzyle

1974

Beim thermischen Abbau von Polybenzylen im Massenspektrometer werden oligomere Benzylbruchstucke mit gesattigten (Phenyl-, Alkyl-) und ungesattigten (Chinonmethid)-Endgruppen gebildet. Zur Differenzierung der thermischen und elektronenstosinduzierten Abbaureaktionen wurden die Fragmentierungsreaktionen oligomere Benzyle vom Typ 1a, b im Massenspektrometer untersucht. Bei Anwendung niedriger Elektronenstosenergien wurden als Hauptfragmentierungsreaktionen Alkyl-, α-Benzyl- und β-Benzylspaltung sowie die fur 1,2-disubstituierte Benzyle strukturspezifische ortho-Umalgerung gefunden, die eine Differenzierung stellungsisomerer Oligobenzyle ermoglicht. Die genannten Reaktionen wurden durch Hochau…
