Changes in post-cutting volatiles, quality, and sensory attributes during fresh-cut storage (4 degrees C) of cantaloupe (Cucumis melo L. var. Reticulatus, Naudin, cv. 'Sol Real') harvested at four distinct maturities (1/4-, 1/2-, 3/4-, and full-slip) were investigated after 0, 2, 5, 7, 9, 12, and 14 days in a 2-year study. Increased fruity and sweet taste attributes were negatively correlated w...

The treatment of readily available propargylic indole-3-acetates with a catalytic amount of AuCl(PPh3)/AgSbF6 leads to tandem activations of the propargylic esters and the in situ generated allenylic esters, resulting in expeditious access to highly functionalized cyclobutanes with fused 2,3-indoline and gamma-lactone rings and an exocyclic E-double bond through sequential 3,3-rearrangement and...

Vitis vinífera L. cv. Maturana Blanca is an autochthonous minor variety recently recovered in the Rioja Qualified Denomination of Origin (D.O.Ca Rioja, Spain) for production monovarietal white wines with singular and differentiated characteristics. In this paper, made different technologies were analyzed by sensory analysis aromatic profile gas chromatography-mass detector. characterized low pH...

Background: Rootstock is a viticultural practice used to combat the devastating Phylloxera vitifoliae (Fitch). Additionally, it well-known that wine aroma composition depends mainly on variety, viticulture management and winemaking; therefore, rootstocks can affect berry quality. This study evaluated influence of nine (110R, SO4, 196-17C, Riparia G, 161-49C, 420A, Gravesac, 3309C 41B) volatile ...

The present study aimed to investigate the correlation between structure and spasmolytic activity of racemate and enantiomers of linalyl and citronellyl acetates, chemical constituents of several bioactive essential oils, such as Thymus leptophyllus essential oil, which contains linalyl acetate as major constituent. The monoterpene esters showed significant spasmolytic activity in guinea-pig is...

Using enantioselective M D G C the enantiom eric d istribution o f alkan-(alken-)2-yl-acetates from bananas is achieved. A fter simple acetylation their corresponding alcohols 2-pentanol, 2-hexanol, 2-heptanol and (Z)-4-hepten-2-ol respectively are also exactly stereodifferentiated by the same method. All com pounds investigated esters as well as alcohols exhibit a rem arkable excess o f the (5...

Composition of Loureiro and Alvarinho wines from the Vinhos Verdes region, respecting free volatile compounds as well as glycosidically bound aroma precursors, was exhaustively determined by GC-MS after adsorption on XAD-2 resin. On the whole, were identified and quantified 120 volatile compounds in the free fraction and 77 glycosidically bound compounds, belonging to C6-compounds, alcohols, fa...

We report the Cu-promoted oxidative cross-coupling of αfluoromalonate half-esters and aryl boron reagents to deliver monofluoro α-aryl acetates under mild conditions (in air at room temperature). The reaction uses a simple, readily available monofluorinated building block to generate arylated compounds with functional groups that are not easily tolerated by existing methods, such as aryl bromid...

In biotransformations carried out under similar conditions enzymatic systems from carrot (Daucus carota L.), celeriac (Apium graveolens L. var. rapaceum) and horse-radish (Armoracia lapathifolia Gilib.) hydrolyzed the ester bonds of acetates of phenols or alicyclic alcohols. Nevertheless, methyl esters of aromatic acids did not undergo hydrolysis. Alcohols were oxidized to ketones in a reversib...

In the context of climate change, water management is crucial for controlling reproductive growth and quality grapes. this study, we aim to determine effects different regimes on yield components chemical composition grape Vitis vinifera Albariño grown in Galicia. Four treatments were tested trial: rainfed (T0), irrigated at 30% ETo from veraison harvest (T1), pea-size (T2), throughout whole ve...
