Zusammenfassung

In einem wäßrigen Extrakt der Fruchtkörper vonC. comatus wurden 3-Octanon, 3-Octanol, 1-Orten-3-ol, 1-Octanol, 2-Methyl-2-penten-4-olid, 1-Dodecanol und Caprylsäure endgültig undn-Butter- und Isobuttersdure vorläufig identifiziert. Aminosäuren, Nukleotide und Zucker wurden auch bestimmt. Ein Gemisch von 37 in dem Extrakt gefundenen Verbindungen hatte ein stärkeres Aroma als der natürliche Extrakt. 3-Octanol, 1-Octen-3-ol, 1-Octanol und 2-Methyl-2-penten-4-olid waren die flüchtigen Produkte mit dem stärksten Einfluß auf das Aroma. Massen- und IR-Spektren von 2-Methyl-2-penten-4-olid werden angegeben.

Summary

In an aqueous extract of fruit bodies ofCoprinus comatus 3-octanone, 3-octanol, 1-orten-3-ol, I-octanol, 2-methyl-2-penten-4-olide,1-dodecanol and caprylic acid were identified conclusively andn-butyric and isobutyric acids preliminarily. Amino-acids, nucleotides and sugars were also determined. A mixture of 37 compounds found in the extract had a stronger flavour than the natural extract. 3-Octanol, 1-orten-3-ol, 1-octanol and 2-methyl-2-penten-4-olide were the volatiles with the strongest flavour. Mass and IR spectra of 2-methyl-2-penten-4-olide are presented.
