Most of the compounds have physiologically active properties, and their biological properties are often attributed to the heteroatoms contained in their molecules, and most of these heteroatoms also appear in cyclic structures. A Journal, Article, Journal of Chromatography A called Elucidation of the aroma compositions of Zhenjiang aromatic vinegar using comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatography coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-olfactometry, Author is Zhou, Zhilei; Liu, Shuangping; Kong, Xiangwei; Ji, Zhongwei; Han, Xiao; Wu, Jianfeng; Mao, Jian, which mentions a compound: 3194-15-8, SMILESS is O=C(C1=CC=CO1)CC, Molecular C7H8O2, Computed Properties of C7H8O2.
In this work, a method to characterize the aroma compounds of Zhenjiang aromatic vinegar (ZAV) was developed using comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatog. (GC × GC) coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) and gas chromatog. olfactometry (GC-O). The column combination was optimized and good separation was achieved. Structured chromatograms of furans and pyrazines were obtained and discussed. A total of 360 compounds were tentatively identified based on mass spectrum match factors, structured chromatogram and linear retention indexes comparison. The most abundant class in number was ketones. A large number of esters, furans and derivatives, aldehydes and alcs. were also detected. The odor-active components were identified by comparison of the reported odor of the identified compounds with the odor of corresponding GC-O region. The odorants of methanethiol, 2-methyl-propanal, 2-methyl-butanal/3-methyl-butanal, octanal, 1-octen-3-one, di-Me trisulfide, trimethyl-pyrazine, acetic acid, 3-(methylthio)-propanal, furfural, benzeneacetaldehyde, 3-methyl-butanoic acid/2-methyl-butanoic acid and phenethyl acetate were suspected to be the most potent. About half of them were identified as significant aroma constituents in ZAV for the first time. Their contribution to specific sensory attribute of ZAJ was also studied. The results indicated that the presented method is suitable for characterization of ZAV aroma constituents. This study also enriches our knowledge on the components and aroma of ZAV.
Different reactions of this compound(1-(Furan-2-yl)propan-1-one)Computed Properties of C7H8O2 require different conditions, so the reaction conditions are very important.
