Ethanol as Internal Standard for Quantitative Determination of Volatile Compounds in Spirit Drinks by Gas Chromatography Siarhei V. Charapitsa, Anton N. Kavalenka, Nikita V. Kulevich, Nicolai M. Makoed, Arkadzi L. Mazanik, Svetlana N. Sytova Research Institute for Nuclear Problems of Belarusian State University, POB 220089, Gruschevskaya Str., 124, Minsk, Belarus, Tel/Fax: 375-172-26-2517, [email protected] Abstract The new methodical approach of using ethanol as internal standard in gas chromatographic analysis of volatile compounds in spirit drinks in daily practice of testing laboratories is proposed. This method provides determination of volatile compounds concentrations in spirit drinks directly expressed in milligrams per liter (mg/L) of absolute alcohol according to official methods without measuring of alcohol strength of analyzed sample. The experimental demonstration of this method for determination of volatile compounds in spirit drinks by gas chromatography is described. Its validation was carried out by comparison with experimental results obtained by internal standard method and external standard method. Keywords: spirit drinks; ethanol; internal standard; volatile compounds; gas chromatography Introduction According to the official methods (1–8) the analytical laboratories should determine the following volatile compounds in spirit drinks: acetaldehyde, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, methanol, 2-propanol, 1- propanol, isobutyl alcohol, n-butanol, isoamyl alcohol. Concentrations of these compounds are expressed in milligrams per liter (mg/L) of absolute alcohol (AA). For calculation of concentrations the internal standard (IS) method is used (1–3, 9–11). Usually pental-3-ol is used as IS. Some researchers (4–8, 12) make calculations by means of the external standard (ES) method to avoid the introduction of another source of error, such as the addition of an internal standard. To get quantitative values of impurities concentration per liter of absolute alcohol it is also required to measure alcohol strength of analyzed sample (1–8). Early (13, 14) an idea to use the main component (solvent) for determination of impurities concentration was proposed. It is possible at the present time to introduce this approach for routine practice of analytical laboratories due to modern GC with wide range of signal registration from flame ionization detector (FID). The linear range of modern FID is generally more than 107. Signal registration from impurities compounds and from main component ethanol takes place without any distortions. In (15, 1 16) demonstration of possibility of using ethanol as internal standard method (“ethanol as ISTD”) for quantitative analysis of spirit drinks by gas chromatography was realized on results obtained in the Laboratory of Analytical Research of the Institute for Nuclear Problems (INP) of Belarusian State University. In this paper our aim is the further verification and validation of the method “ethanol as ISTD” by comparison of experimental results of all methods cited above. Results presented were obtained in INP and in the Control Laboratory of Bobruisk Hydrolysis Plant from Belarus (BHP). Theoretical background The main difference of the proposed method “ethanol as ISTD” from classical method of IS in this case is the following. In the classical case calibration of chromatograph includes the measuring of relative detector response factors for every analyzed compound relative to IS. Numeric values of these factors RFi are calculated from chromatographic data for standard solutions with known concentrations of analyzed compounds and may be expressed by the following equation: st st st st AIS CIS (/) mg L AIS ⋅ Ci (/) mg L RFi = st / st = st st , [1] Ai Ci (/) mg L Ai ⋅ CIS (/) mg L st st st st where Ai and AIS are peak areas of i-th compounds and IS respectively; Ci (/) mg L and CIS (/) mg L are concentrations of i-th compounds and IS respectively expressed in mg per 1 liter of solution. Concentration of i-th sample compound relative to absolute alcohol Ci [mg/L] is expressed by the following formula (1–3): Ai 100 Ci= RF i × × CIS (/) mg L × , [2] AIS Strength where Ai and AIS are the peak areas for i-th compound and IS respectively, CIS (/) mg L is concentration of IS, Strength is concentration of alcohol in solution expressed in % volume. In the case of “ethanol as ISTD” the formulas [1] and [2] looks as follows: st st st st AIS CEt ( mg / L ( AA )) AIS ⋅ Ci ( mg / L ( AA )) RFi ( Et__)/ as IS = st st = st , [3] Ai Ci ( mg / L ( AA )) Ai ⋅ ρEt st where Ci ( mg / L ( AA )) is concentration of i-th compounds expressed in mg per 1 liter of absolute alcohol, ρEt =789300 mg/L is the density of ethanol. Concentration of i-th sample compound relative to absolute alcohol Ci [mg/L(AA)] is expressed by the following formula: 2 Ai Ci= RF i (__) Et as IS × × ρEt . [4] AEt According to [4] we obtain value of i-th sample compound concentration directly expressed in mg per 1 liter of absolute alcohol directly without any additional measurement of strength and without of any procedure of IS adding in an analyzed sample. Standard and sample preparations All individual standard compounds were purchased from Sigma-Fluka-Aldrich (Berlin, Germany). The standard solutions for graduation and sample solutions were prepared by adding of individual standard compounds in ethanol-water mixture (96:4) by weight. Ethanol of high grade quality was purchased from Minsk-Kristall Winery and Distillery Plant (Minsk, Belarus). The state standard ethanol- water (96:4) solutions GSO-8404 (“ethanol solution”) and state standard ethanol-water (40:60) GSO-8405 (“vodka solution”) solutions were purchased from VNIIPBT (Moscow, Russia). Fig.1. Typical chromatogram of the standard ethanol-water (40:60) solution. 1 – acetaldehyde, 2 – methyl acetate, 3 – ethyl acetate, 4 – methanol, 5 – 2-propanol, 6 – ethanol, 7 – 1-propanol, 8 – isobutyl alcohol, 9 – n-butanol, 10 – isoamyl alcohol, 11 – 1-pentanol (internal standard). Gas Chromatographic conditions Analyses were carried out in laboratories of INP and BHP on the gas chromatographs Crystal5000 (JSC SDB Chromatec, Yoshkar-Ola, Russia) equipped with FID, a split/splitless injector, liquid autosampler, Unichrom software (New Analytical Systems Ltd., Minsk, Belarus), capillary column Rt- Wax, 60 m x 0.53 mm, phase thickness 1 μm (Restek, Bellefonte, PA, USA). The oven temperature was: initial isotherm at 75 °C (9 min), raised to 155 °C at rate 7 °C/min with final isotherm of 155 °C (2.6 min). 3 Carrier gas was nitrogen. Gas flow was 2.44 mL/min; injector temperature 160 °C; detector temperature 200 °C; injector volume 0.5 μL and split ratio 1:20. This high split ratio was chosen to achieve good separation between peaks of 2-propanol and ethanol. Once the gas chromatographic conditions had been optimized the satisfactory separation under these conditions has been achieved. Typical chromatogram of the used standard solutions is presented in Fig. 1–2. In Fig. 1 in order to show the dominant compound ethanol and another minor compounds synchronously the logarithm scale of response signal is chosen. Fig.2. The same chromatogram as in Fig. 1, but linear scale of response signal is chosen. Results and discussion To compare proposed methodical approach “ethanol as ISTD” with classical commonly used method of internal standard experimental researches were planned and executed in laboratories of INP and BHP. Seven standard ethanol-water (96:4) solutions VC and VCC were prepared by weight. Concentrations of analyzed volatile compounds in the prepared solutions are presented in Table 1. The standard solutions of volatile compounds VC-1, VC-2 and VC-3 were used to generate calibration curves. The standard solutions VCC-0, VCC-1, VCC-2, VCC-3 and certified reference materials GSO-8404 and GSO-8405 were used to control trueness (17) of the proposed methodical approach. Every standard solution was injected two times. 4 Table 1.

    Synthesis of Higher Alcohols During Alcoholic Fermentation of Rye Mashes

Particular attention should be paid to generation of higher alcohols because of its complex mechanism and dynamics. In XIX century the higher alcohols were thought about as “bacterial metabolites of spoilage” that contaminate alcoholic beverages. At the beginning of XX century Ehrlich proved that these compounds were produced by yeast from amino acids and they naturally occurred in all alcoholic beverages derived from spirits of agricultural origin. The quantity and profile of fusel alcohols in the wash depend on many factors such as raw materials used to prepare the sweet mash, yeast strain and the inoculum dose, supplements added to the mash. Investigations of many researchers prove that higher alcohols are formed through catabolic and anabolic pathways. They are either products of amino acid catabolism – as was found by Ehrlich or by-products of amino acid synthesis from pyruvate through the anabolic pathway. The occurrence of fusel alcohols in raw spirits from agricultural distilleries is a result of the presence of amino acids, sugars and products of their metabolism mainly aldehydes, in fermented mashes. Introduction One of Polish Standards regulates allowable concentrations of alcoholic fermentation by-products like methanol, aldehydes, esters and organic acids in raw spirits from agricultural distilleries but it does not refer to higher alcohols [1].

Naturforsch. 2013, 68b, 841 – 851 / DOI: 10.5560/ZNB.2013-3003 Received February 9, 2013 We have calculated the vibrational spectra of isoamyl alcohol and of tert-amyl alcohol using Den- sity Functional Theory (DFT) with the Becke-3 Lee Yang Parr (B3LYP) functional and a 6-311+G** atomic basis set. The energies of the conformers were also calculated with ab initio Perturbation Theory of second (MP2) and fourth order restricted to single, double and quadruple excitations (MP4 SDQ) with the same basis set. We found rather complicated equilibria of four conformations in each case, counting only those with appreciable abundancies. PED data were compared with GAUSSVIEW animations. The calculated wavenumbers agree rather well with the experimental ones when the gauche-trans conformer is assumed as the most important one for isoamyl alcohol, and the gauche- gauche one for tert-amyl alcohol. However, some of the experimental bands had to be assigned also to other conformers, indicating their presence in the equilibrium mixture. Due to sterical reasons both the CO and the OH bonds appear to be weaker in the tertiary alcohol, considering the wavenumbers of the CO and OH bond stretching vibrations. The bond lengths point into the same direction, however, the OH bond in the tertiary alcohol is only slightly longer than that in the primary alcohol.

Abstract: The assessment of primary calibrator purity is critical for establishing traceability to the International System of Units (SI). Recently, quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) has been used as a purity determination method for reference material development, and many related measurement techniques have been designed to acquire accurate and reliable results. This review introduces the recent advances in these techniques (including multidimensional methods), focusing on the application of qNMR to reference material preparation.
