Detection of short-chain aldehydes in marine organisms: the diatom Thalassiosira rotula
摘要:
Short-chain aldehydes are analysed by GC-MS and NMR after their transformation into the corresponding carboxyethylethylidene (CET) derivatives via Wittig reaction. The procedure implies the treatment of the aldehyde with (carbetoxyethylidene)-triphenylphosphorane under very mild conditions. The method is suitable for the detection of short and medium chain aldehydes. CET derivatives are easily prepared and can be Utilised for the analysis of raw biological samples. The efficacy of the method has been tested in the identification of biologically active aldehydes in the marine diatom Thalassiosira rotula. At least two compounds, trans,trans-octadienal and 2-trans-4-trans-2,4,7-octatrienal, that have not been revealed in previous papers are unambiguously identified in the microalga.

The present invention relates to an acetal of formula
1
in which the symbols R
1
represent, independently or simultaneously, a linear or branched saturated or unsaturated C
1
to C
4
hydrocarbon group; or the two R
1
are bonded together to form a saturated ring having 5 to 7 atoms and including the oxygen atoms to which the R
1
groups are bonded, this ring being possibly substituted by methyl or ethyl groups; and the wavy line indicates that the double bond in position 4 has a configuration of the type (Z) or (E) or a mixture of the two configurations. The invention relates also to the use of such compounds as perfuming or flavoring ingredients, as well as the perfumed or flavored articles or perfuming or flavoring compositions containing such compounds.
A pro-fragrance composition includes a cucurbituril in complex with a fragrance molecule and use of the compositions in counteracting malodour. The cucurbituril is present as a mixture, wherein the mixture includes at least two different cucurbiturils selected from CB[5], CB[6], CB[7] and CB[8]. The complexed fragrance molecule is released when the composition is exposed to a stimulus. Also provides methods for the preparation of pro-fragrance complexes of cucurbiturils and fragrance molecules.
