反応手順

Metabolites of trans-ferulic acid, including the CoASH thioesters, were analysed and quantitated by HPLC using a Lichrosorb RP-18 column (20 cm×4.6 mm; Capital HPLC, Broxburn, West Lothian, UK) with a multiphasic gradient; solvent “A” was 20 mM NaOAc, adjusted to pH 6.0 and solvent “B” was MeOH; the flow rate was 1.2 ml/min; the proportion of solvent “B” rose linearly from 0% at 0 min to 10% at 15 min and thence to 50% at 40 min and 70% at 45 min, finally decreasing to 0% at 50 min. Detection was with a Spectra Focus detector (Thermo Separation Products, Stone, Staffs. UK), which permitted u/v spectral analysis of each eluting component. Typical approximate retention times were: CoASH, 3 min; vanillic acid, 7 min; trans-ferulic acid, 19 min; acetyl SCoA, 22 min; HMPHP SCoA, 29 min; vanilloyl SCoA, 31 min; vanillin, 31.5 min; trans-feruloyl SCoA, 34 min.
