Aldolases are key biocatalysts for stereoselective C-C bond formation allowing access to polyoxygenated chiral units through direct, efficient, and sustainable synthetic processes. Aldol reaction involving unprotected hydroxypyruvate and an aldehyde...

The degradation reaction of thermally treated 3-deoxy-D-erythro-hexos-2-ulose and methylglyoxal, both key intermediates in Mail lard chemistry, was investigated. Different analytical strategies were accomplished to cover the broad range of formed products and their different chemical behavior. These involved HPLC-DAD and accordingly LC/MS analysis of the quinoxaline derivates, GC/MS analysis of the acetylated quinoxalines, and GC-FID analysis of the decyl ester of acetic acid. As a main degradation product of 3-deoxy-D-erythro-hexos-2-ulose, 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural could be identified. At alkaline pH values, 3-deoxy-D-erythro-hexos-2-ulose generated various acids but no colored products. In contrast, thermal treatment of methylglyoxal yielded high molecular weight, brownish products. A dimer of methylglyoxal, first precursor for aldol-based polymerization of methylglyoxal, could be clearly identified by GC/MS.

The aim of this study was to investigate the secondary metabolites content of Scorzonera papposa DC., an edible plant eaten in the desert region of Jordan and to assess its antioxidant and free radical-scavenging activity. By using this bioassay-oriented approach nine compounds, including the new natural compounds (6-trans-p-coumaroyl)-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-2-deoxy-D-riburonic acid (1), (6-cis-p-coumaroyl)-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-2-deoxy-D-riburon acid (2a), (6-trans-p-coumaroyl)-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-2-deoxy-D-riburonic acid methyl ester (3), and (6-trans-p-coumaroyl)-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(5-acetyl)-2-deoxy-D-riburonic acid (4), having the rare deoxy-D-riburonic acid moiety, were isolated. Their structures were elucidated by UV, MS, H-1 and C-13 NMR and 2D NMR. The antioxidant activity of the S. papposa pure compounds and of related derivatives isolated from another Scorzonera species (S. judaica Eig.) was also tested. The Relative Antioxidant Capacity Index (RACI) was applied as an integrated method to compare the antioxidant activities obtained using different chemical methods. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
