Detection of Odor-Active Ethenylalkylpyrazines in Roasted Coffee
摘要:
In roasted Robusta coffee, two potent earthy smelling compounds were identified as 2-ethenyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine and 2-ethenyl-3-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine by comparison of gas chromatography and mass spectrometry data with those of the corresponding reference substances. The odor threshold values (0.014 ng/L, air) of the new pyrazines were as low as those of 2-ethyl-3,5-dimethyl-and 2,3-diethyl-5-methylpyrazine. 3-Ethenyl-2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine was also detected in coffee, and its odor threshold value was 8000 times higher than that of the 2-ethenyl-3-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine. After addition of HBr, the two ethenylethylmethylpyrazine. isomers were separated by capillary gas chromatography. The results indicate the presence of the two isomers in a 1:1 ratio in coffee.

2-ethenyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine 1 and 3-ethenyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine 2 were synthesized via a new chemical route. The key steps of the synthesis involve cyclocondenzation of 1-[bicyclo[2.2.1]5-hepten-2-yl]-1,2-propanedione and 1,2-propanediamine, aromatization of the resulting 5,6-dihydropyrazines, and subsequent Retro-Diels–Alder reaction to generate pyrazines 1 and 2. Pyrazine 1, a powerful odorant, was

The present invention refers to a process for extracting arabinogalactans from coffee comprising enzymatically hydrolysing whole or ground green or roasted coffee beans thereby obtaining an aqueous dispersion comprising partially hydrolysed coffee beans and arabinogalactans. Furthermore, the invention also encompasses products where the coffee derived arabinogalactans are used such as a glassy matix, pure soluble coffee and a beverage composition.
