Enantioselective Analysis of Secondary Alcohols and Their Esters in Purple and Yellow Passion Fruits
摘要:
The enantiomeric compositions of the acetates, butanoates, hexanoates, and octanoates of the secondary alcohols 2-pentanol, 2-heptanol, and 2-nonanol were determined in yellow (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa) and purple (Passiflora edulis Sims) passion fruits. The compounds were isolated by means of simultaneous distillation-extraction. Enantiodifferentiation was performed via multidimensional gas chromatography using heptakis(2,3-di-O-methyl-6-O-tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-beta-cyclodextrin as chiral stationary phase. The series of homologous 2-alkyl esters, which are typical constituents of purple passion fruits, were shown to be present as nearly optically pure (R)-enantiomers. The proportions of the (S)-enantiomers varied in different batches and were dependent on the alcohol moieties of the esters. For minor amounts of esters detected in yellow fruits, the (R)-enantiomers were also dominating. However, the enantiomeric excesses were significantly lower than in the purple variety. Enantioselective analysis of the free alcohols revealed that 2-heptanol exhibited opposite configurations in purple and yellow passion fruits. A similar phenomenon was observed for 2-pentanol, which was present in the yellow fruits as a nearly racemic mixture. Data determined in extracts obtained by other techniques (liquid-liquid extraction, vacuum headspace technique) showed that the isolation procedure had no significant impact on the enantiomeric ratios.

The aim of the work is to develop the esters syntheses by combining in one reactor the acid–catalytic intramolecular alcohols dehydration and the resulting alkenes alkoxycarbonylation. Esters were synthesized from cycloalkanols or secondary alkanols C5–C9 and CO under mild conditions. For the first time, a wide range of catalytic systems including palladium precursor, organophosphine, strong protonic
这项工作的目的是通过在一个反应器中结合酸催化分子内醇脱水和由此产生的烯烃烷氧基羰基化来开发酯合成。在温和条件下,由环烷醇或仲烷醇C 5 –C 9与CO合成酯。首次在基于环己醇和 CO 的模型一锅法工艺中测试了多种催化体系,包括钯前体、有机膦、强质子酸和结合水添加剂。直链仲醇 C 6、C 7和 C 9与 XANTPHOS 促进剂一起在 Pd 系统催化的异构化烷氧基羰基化反应器中组合。这些过程导致异构酯的形成,其中 60-73% 是直链羧酸酯,是末端 CO 加成到烯烃上的产物。
