Amino Acid-Catalyzed Conversion of Citral:  cistrans Isomerization and Its Conversion into 6-Methyl-5-hepten-2-one and Acetaldehyde

Abstract: Under alkaline conditions, amino acids or proteins catalyze the deacetylation of citral, a major aroma component, resulting in methylheptenone and acetaldehyde formation. 3-Hydroxycitronellal is an intermediate in this reaction. Amino acids also catalyze the cis-trans isomerization of the pure isomers of citral, geranial, and neral. Most likely the amino acids are involved in stabilizing intermediates of the isomerization and deacetylation reaction of citral. On the basis of the findings presented, some conseq… Show more

“…These variations in stereoselectivities can be explained by in situ (nonspecific) enzymatic (E/Z) isomerization of citral (1a). [21] As OYEs 1-3 are known to produce (R)-and (S)-1b from (E) and (Z) isomers of citral (1a), respectively, [8] the relative rate of competing (fast) C=C-bond reduction versus (slow) (E/Z) isomerization determines the overall outcome of the process (Scheme 2). Short reaction times furnish high stereoselectivities (but low conversion), whereas extended exposure times result in reduced ee values (but enhanced yields) of 1b.…”

“…Geranial and neral are trans-and cis-isomers, and are transformed into each other by keto-enol tautomerization, which is accelerated at alkaline or acidic condition (Kimura et al 1982;Wolken et al 2000). Therefore, citral is usually composed of a mixture of approximately 60% geranial and 40% neral.…”

“…Moreover, the isomerization remained constant after 6 h. Under alkaline conditions in Gly-NaOH buffer (pH 9.0-10.0), an equilibrium ratio between E/Z-isomers was reached an approximate ratio of 3:2. Isomerization of citral could be explained by Wolken et al (2010). In the presence of glycine, and especially under alkaline conditions, the isomerization was probably catalyzed via transient Schiff 's base formation between the aldehyde and glycine.…”
