Analysis of 4-Methyloctanoic acid and other medium chain-length fatty acid constituents of ovine tissue lipids
Lipids 1977 Apr;12(4):340-7.PMID:853878DOI:10.1007/BF02533636.
Medium chain-length (C6-C9) fatty acids in depot, intramuscular, kidney, and liver lipids from pasture-fed sheep and subcutaneous and intramuscular lipids from barley-fed sheep were analyzed with emphasis on the 4-Methyloctanoic acid (hircinoic acid) content. Within individual animals, the level of hircinoic acid in the subcutaneous fat was usually higher than that either in the deeper depot fats or in the intramuscular fat. Variation of hircinoic acid levels between animals was greatest in the subcutanous fat and least in the perinrphric fat. There were usually higher levels of both branched and odd carbon chain fatty acids in the lipids of barley-fed sheep than in the corresponding lipids of pasture-fed sheep.
The effect of ethanol on the kinetics of lipase-mediated enantioselective esterification of 4-Methyloctanoic acid and the hydrolysis of its ethyl ester
Biotechnol Bioeng 2001 Nov;76(3):193-9.PMID:11668453DOI:10.1002/bit.10008.
The Novozym 435(R) catalyzed esterification and hydrolysis reactions of 4-Methyloctanoic acid (ethyl ester) were investigated. In both the hydrolysis and esterification reactions, the increase of ethanol concentration led to an increase in enantiomeric ratio (E). For hydrolysis of the ethyl ester, the E-value increased from 5.5 [0% (v/v) EtOH] up to 12 [20% (v/v) EtOH]. In case of esterification, the E-value was already 16 [14% (v/v) EtOH] and rose to 57 [73% (v/v) EtOH]. When combining these results of esterification and hydrolysis, an enantiomeric ratio of 350 can be estimated for the sequential kinetic resolution of 4-Methyloctanoic acid. In this way, enantiopure 4-Methyloctanoic acid could be obtained after two consecutive reaction steps.
A novel method for determination and quantification of 4-methyloctanoic and 4-methylnonanoic acids in mutton by hollow fiber supported liquid membrane extraction coupled with gas chromatography
Meat Sci 2012 Dec;92(4):715-20.PMID:22789457DOI:10.1016/j.meatsci.2012.06.027.
4-Methyloctanoic acid (MOA) and 4-methylnonanoic acid (MNA) are the main compounds responsible for "sweaty" odor of mutton. A novel method for their determination has been developed and validated. Hollow fiber supported liquid membrane (HF-SLM) was applied to selectively extract MOA and MNA prior to gas chromatography (GC) analysis. For HF-SLM, the donor outside the fiber was the acidified supernatant (pH 4) from aqueous mutton slurry. Liquid membrane was 5% tri-n-octylphoshphine oxide in di-n-hexyl ether and 0.3M NaOH aqueous solution filled in the lumen of the fiber was used as the acceptor. The extraction last for 4h. After acidification with HCl, the acceptor was directly analyzed by GC. Importantly, HF-SLM provided high enrichment factors for MOA (133) and MNA (116). The method developed had low detection limits of 0.0007-0.0015 mg/kg, good linearity (R²>0.9956), reasonable recovery (88.54-122.13%), satisfactory intra-assay (7.83-9.73%) and inter-assay (15.68-16.14%) precision.
Identification of Components of the Aggregation Pheromone of the Guam Strain of Coconut Rhinoceros Beetle, Oryctes rhinoceros, and Determination of Stereochemistry
J Chem Ecol 2022 Mar;48(3):289-301.PMID:34762208DOI:10.1007/s10886-021-01329-z.
The coconut rhinoceros beetle, Oryctes rhinoceros (Linnaeus 1758) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Dynastinae) (CRB), is endemic to tropical Asia where it damages both coconut and oil palm. A new invasion by CRB occurred on Guam in 2007 and eradication attempts failed using commonly applied Oryctes rhinoceros nudivirus (OrNV) isolates. This and subsequent invasive outbreaks were found to have been caused by a previously unrecognized haplotype, CRB-G, which appeared to be tolerant to OrNV. The male-produced aggregation pheromone of the endemic, susceptible strain of O. rhinoceros (CRB-S) was previously identified as ethyl 4-methyloctanoate. Following reports from growers that commercial lures containing this compound were not attractive to CRB-G, the aim of this work was to identify the pheromone of CRB-G. Initial collections of volatiles from virgin male and female CRB-G adults from the Solomon Islands failed to show any male- or female-specific compounds as candidate pheromone components. Only after five months were significant quantities of ethyl 4-methyloctanoate and 4-Methyloctanoic acid produced by males but not by females. No other male-specific compounds could be detected, in particular methyl 4-methyloctanoate, 4-methyl-1-octanol, or 4-methyl-1-octyl acetate, compounds identified in volatiles from some other species of Oryctes. Ethyl 4-methyloctanoate elicited a strong electroantennogram response from both male and female CRB-G, but these other compounds, including 4-Methyloctanoic acid, did not. The enantiomers of ethyl 4-methyloctanoate and 4-Methyloctanoic acid were conveniently prepared by enzymatic resolution of the commercially-available acid, and the enantiomers of the acid, but not the ester, could be separated by gas chromatography on an enantioselective cyclodextrin phase. Using this approach, both ethyl 4-methyloctanoate and 4-Methyloctanoic acid produced by male CRB-G were shown to be exclusively the (R)-enantiomers whereas previous reports had suggested male O. rhinoceros produced the (S)-enantiomers. However, re-examination of the ester and acid produced by male CRB-S from Papua New Guinea showed that these were also the (R)-enantiomers. In field trapping experiments carried out in the Solomon Islands, both racemic and ethyl (R)-4-methyloctanoate were highly attractive to both male and female CRB-G beetles. The (S)-enantiomer and the corresponding acids were only weakly attractive. The addition of racemic 4-Methyloctanoic acid to ethyl 4-methyloctanoate did significantly increase attractiveness, but the addition of (R)- or (S)-4-methyloctanoic acid to the corresponding ethyl esters did not. Possible reasons for the difference in assignment of configuration of the components of the CRB pheromone are discussed along with the practical implications of these results.
Concentrations of volatile 4-alkyl-branched fatty acids in sheep and goat milk and dairy products
J Food Sci 2014 Nov;79(11):C2209-14.PMID:25316158DOI:10.1111/1750-3841.12673.
Goat and sheep milk and dairy products thereof are characterized by a strong and unique flavor. In this context, the volatile minor fatty acid 4-ethyloctanoic acid plays a prominent role along with 4-Methyloctanoic acid when both are present in free form. Using a novel GC/MS method in the selected ion-monitoring mode, previously developed for sheep subcutaneous adipose tissue, we were able to analyze the total concentrations of these flavor-relevant minor fatty acids as methyl esters in goat and sheep milk as well as in their products. Differences between the concentrations and ratios of 4-Methyloctanoic acid and 4-ethyloctanoic acid in goat milk (n = 4), goat cheese (n = 4), sheep milk (n = 2), and sheep cheese (n = 4) were observed. Goat milk and cheese resulted in higher concentrations for both fatty acids (190 to 480 μg/g milk fat) and smaller 4-Me-8:0 to 4-Et-8:0 ratios (1.4 to 2.7) compared to sheep milk and cheese (78 to 220 μg/g milk fat; 4-Me-8:0 to 4-Et-8:0 ratio: 15 to 42). In all samples, the concentration of 4-Me-8:0 exceeded the one of 4-Et-8:0. However, due to its lower flavor threshold value the contribution of 4-Et-8:0 to the flavor was generally >76%. The calculated flavor values were >1400 for goat milk and cheeses and >200 for sheep milk and cheeses. In goat milk and its products, only a proportion of <0.1% 4-alkyl-branched fatty acids present in free form in the goat milk and <0.5% in the sheep samples would be sufficient to generate the characteristic goaty flavor. Parameters that promote or prevent the release of 4-Me-8:0, and especially 4-Et-8:0, will be decisive for the flavor in the resulting dairy product.
