Abstract
Yashi Xiang (YSX) is a flavor of Fenghuang Dancong tea and famous for its name and floral aroma, which is a type of semi-fermented oolong tea. However, previous research into the aroma characteristics of YSX tea mostly focused on the aroma compounds, and little research on chiral compounds in YSX has been performed. Therefore, the current study was conducted to explore the aroma characteristics of YSX tea from the perspective of enantiomers of chiral compounds. A total of 12 enantiomers were determined in this study, among them, (R)-(-)-α-ionone, (S)-(+)-linalool, (1S,2S)-(+)-methyl jasmonate, (S)-z-nerolidol, (R)-(+)-limonene, and (S)-(-)-limonene have important effects on the aroma components of YSX tea. The ER ratios of the enantiomers were different in samples of different grades. Therefore, this parameter can be used to identify the grade and authenticity of YSX tea. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The study illuminates the aroma characteristics of YSX tea from the perspective of enantiomers of chiral compounds, which have important effects on the aroma components of YSX tea. It established an ER ratio system to effectively distinguish the grade and authenticity of YSX tea by comparing the ER of YSX tea. Focusing on analyzing the chiral compounds in the aroma of YSX tea is helpful in providing a theoretical basis for the authenticity of the precious tea and improving of the quality of YSX tea products.

Determination of 2-Pentanol Enantiomers via Chiral GC-MS and Its Sensory Evaluation in Baijiu. Foods 2022; 11:foods11172584. [PMID: 36076771 PMCID: PMC9455680 DOI: 10.3390/foods11172584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Revised: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The enantiomeric contents of 2-pentanol of Baijiu were analyzed by liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) using β-cyclodextrin as a chiral stationary phase. In this study, the average enantiomeric ratios R:S were 72:28, 64:36, and 94:6 in soy sauce aroma-type Baijiu (SSB), strong aroma-type Baijiu (STB), and light aroma-type Baijiu (LTB), respectively, and only (R)- configuration was found in rice aroma-type Baijiu (RTB). The highest enantiomeric concentration of 2-pentanol was found in STB. (R)-2-pentanol dominated in 48 Baijiu studied, and the concentration of (R)-2-pentanol was higher than that of the (S)-configuration. The results showed that the enantiomers of 2-pentanol were discrepant in different aroma types of Baijiu, and it may be the result of differences in raw materials, environment, and production processes. The 2-pentanol enantiomers had different odor characteristics, with different olfactory thresholds in pure water and 46% ethanol solutions by sensory analysis. (R)-2-pentanol was described as paint, rubber, grease, while the (S)-form had mint, plastic, and pungent notes. The olfactory thresholds of (R)- and (S)-form were 163.30 mg/L and 78.58 mg/L in 46% ethanol and 12.62 mg/L and 3.03 mg/L in pure water, respectively. The different enantiomeric distribution and aroma characteristics of the 2-pentanol enantiomers in Baijiu could be a potential marker for determining adulteration.

Abstract
Pu-Erh tea, as a typical post-fermented tea, can be divided into raw Pu-Erh tea (RAPT) and ripened Pu-Erh tea (RIPT) according to the processing technology. It is famous for its unique aroma after aging. Although previous research on the aroma characteristics of Pu-Erh tea mostly focused on the aroma compounds, little research on chiral compounds in RAPT and RIPT has been performed. Therefore, the current work aims to explore the aroma characteristics of Pu-Erh tea from the perspective of enantiomers of chiral compounds. A total of 15 enantiomers were determined in this study, among which (R)-(-)-2,2,6-trimethylcyclohexanone, (R)-(-)-linalool, (S)-(+)-linalool, (R)-(+)-δ-octanolactone, (R)-(+)-γ-nonanolactone, (2R,5R)-(+)-theaspirone A, and (R)-(-)-dihydroactinidiolide were identified as enantiomeric compounds that play an important role in the aroma of RAPT and RIPT. Furthermore, (2S,5R)-trans-linalool oxide and (R)-(+)-α-terpineol were important contributors to the aroma profile of RAPT, while (S)-(+)-2-methylbutanal, (S)-(-)-limonene, S-(-)-α-terpineol, and (1R,2R)-(-)-methyl jasmonate contributed to the characteristic aroma of RIPT. The addition of these enantiomeric compounds brings the aroma closer to that of the original tea sample. In addition, the analysis of chiral enantiomers of linalool, limonene, theaspirone A, and γ-nonanolactone can provide guidance for the quality and flavor control of Pu-Erh tea aroma.

Xu H, Dai Y, Qiu S, Sun B, Zeng X. Distribution and Quantification of 1,2-Propylene Glycol Enantiomers in Baijiu. Foods 2021; 10:foods10123039. [PMID: 34945589 PMCID: PMC8700810 DOI: 10.3390/foods10123039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2021] [Revised: 11/30/2021] [Accepted: 12/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Enantiomers of 1,2-Propylene glycol (1,2-PG) were investigated in 64 commercial Chinese Baijiu including soy sauce aroma-type Baijiu (SSB), strong aroma-type Baijiu (STB), and light aroma-type Baijiu (LTB), via chiral gas chromatography (β-cyclodextrin). The natural enantiomeric distribution and concentration of 1,2-PG in various baijiu were studied to evaluate whether the distribution and content of the two isomers of 1,2-PG were correlated with the aroma type and storage year. The results showed that 1,2-PG has a high enantiomeric ratio and the (S)-configuration predominated in SSB. The average S/R enantiomeric ratio of this compound in SSB was approximately 87:13 (±3.17), with an average concentration of 52.77 (±23.70) mg/L for the (S)-configuration and 8.72 (±3.63) mg/L for the (R)-enantiomer. The (R)-configuration was predominant in the STB, whereas neither (S) nor (R)-form of 1,2-PG were detected in LTB. The content of the two configurations of 1,2-PG in the JSHSJ vintage of SSB showed a wave variation, with an average S/R enantiomeric ratio of 89:11 (±1.15). The concentration of (R)-1,2-PG in XJCTJ vintage liquors showed an upward and then downward trend with aging time, with an overall downward trend, and the concentration of (S)-form showed a wavy change with an overall upward trend. Except for the LZLJ-2019 vintage where both (R) and (S)-1,2-PG were present, all other samples only existed (R)-form, and a decreasing trend of (R)-enantiomer with aging time was observed. The enantiomeric ratio of 1,2-PG might be one of the potential markers for adulteration control of Baijiu as industrial 1,2-PG usually presented in the racemic mixture. Sensory analysis revealed olfactory thresholds of 4.66 mg/L and 23.92 mg/L for the (R)- and (S)-configurations in pure water respectively. GC-O showed both enantiomers exhibited different aromatic nuances.

Abstract
Current approaches for incorporating boronic acids into peptides require one of the following: the synthesis of commercially unavailable pinacol-protected boronate ester amino acid building blocks, amidation of small-molecule amine-containing boronic acids, or reductive amination of amine residues with 2-formylphenyl boronic acid. These methods have drawbacks, such as the use of excess starting materials, the lack of reactive-site specificity, or the inability to add multiple boronic acids in solution. In addition, several of these approaches do not allow for incorporation of the critical o-aminomethyl functionality that allows for binding of sacharrides under physiological conditions. In this work, we report three methods to functionalize synthetic peptides with boronic acids using solid-phase and solution-phase chemistries by alkylating a secondary amine with o-(bromomethyl)phenylboronic acid. Solution-phase chemistries afforded the highest yields, and were used to synthesize seven complex biotinylated multi-boronic acid peptides.
