Abstract:
Several chicken parts (skin, fat, juice) were cooked in different ways (roasting, simmering) and investigated separately for their volatile composition. In-depth GC/MS analysis of the separate fractions revealed several unknown molecules. Mass spectra interpretation allowed us to identify nine molecules for the first time in chicken, including cyclic aldehydes, cyclic ketones, and new δ-lactones containing an unsaturated linear chain. Identification was confirmed by chemical synthesis followed by comparison of the mass spectra and linear retention indices. The natural occurrence of five of these molecules is reported here for the first time in a natural product.
