Laboratory incubation of alkenone mixtures with tert-butyl hydroperoxide and di-tert-butyl nitroxide (radical initiator) in hexane, as a means to simulate alkenone autoxidation processes, rapidly led to the formation of allylic hydroperoxides, whose presence was recently demonstrated in Emiliania huxleyi cells. After incubation in seawater and subsequent reduction with NaBH4 (to reduce residual hydroperoxides before analysis), these reaction products quickly disappeared and were replaced by complex mixtures of n-alcohols, fatty acids, alkyldiols and hydroxyacids. Methyl alkenones produced saturated n-alkan-1-ols and fatty acids ranging from C13 to C16 and two series of C13−C16 (ω-1)-hydroxyacids and (1,ω-1)-diols. Ethyl alkenones also afforded C13−C16 saturated n-alkan-1-ols and fatty acids, accompanied by the production of C14−C17 (ω-2)-hydroxyacids and (1,ω-2)-diols. Deuterium labelling allowed us to show that most of the n-alkan-1-ols, hydroxyacids and alkyldiols resulted from the reduction during the NaBH4 treatment of the corresponding aldehydes, ketoxyacids and ketoxyaldehydes formed from heterolytic or homolytic cleavages of allylic hydroperoxyl groups resulting from the oxidation of the double bonds of di- and triunsaturated alkenones. Amongst these products, the (ω-1)- and (ω-2)-hydroxyacids formed after NaBH4 reduction of the (ω-1)- and (ω-2)-ketoxyacids were selected as potential biomarkers for alkenone autoxidation. Re-examination of lipid extracts of post-bloom seawater particulate matter samples from the DYFAMED station in the Ligurian Sea (where strong autoxidative alteration of the lipid distributions had previously been detected) showed the presence of significant amounts of 12-hydroxytetradecanoic, 13-hydroxytetradecanoic, 14-hydroxyhexadecanoic and 15-hydroxyhexadecanoic acids thus providing good evidence that these autoxidative processes occur in natural samples. 相似文献

Contributions by bacteria to recent sediments have been recognized as one important source of input for the extractable lipids. It has, however, proved difficult so far to conclusively relate the components identified to the contributing bacteria. This fact is primarily related to the lack of information on both the lipid chemistry of marine bacteria, and of detailed structures of the sedimentary lipids. In this paper a study of the fatty acids from a tropical marine sediment selected because of its high biomass content is reported, and relationships between the sedimentary extracts of the surface layer to fatty acid components of bacteria cultured from the sediment sample are detailed. By selecting specific structural features, a group of fatty acids have been identified as valid markers for bacteria in this environment: these include iso- and anteiso-branched chain acids; 10-methylpalmitic acid; cyclopropyl 17:0 and 19:0 acids of which ▽19:0 (11,12) is unique to bacteria; cis-vaccenic acid; and the 15:1, 17:1 ω6 and ω8 isomers especially when these occur in pairs; iso Δ7–15: 1 and iso Δ9–17:1 are branched unsaturated acids apparently unique to bacteria. Trans-monoene fatty acids are likely to be a direct bacterial input, and the hydroxy acids identified are probably of bacterial cell wall origin. This study, whilst emphasizing the necessity for detailed structural information on fatty acids in order to use them validly as biological markers, considerably extends the range of fatty acids as markers of bacterial input to contemporary sediments. 相似文献

A detailed study has been made of the solvent extractable monocarboxylic, dicarboxylic and hydroxylated fatty acids and n-alkanes in a surface intertidal sediment, and the distributions compared to microorganisms cultured from the sediment. Diatoms are shown to contribute most of the monocarboxylic acids, particularly the significant amounts of polyunsaturated acids present, and a small proportion of the n-alkanes. Bacteria contribute between 11 and 14% of the monocarboxylic acids and markers for this, including trans-monounsaturated acids, are proposed. Detritus from the sea-grass Zostera muelleri is a major source of the α-hydroxy-, ω-hydroxy and α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in the sediment and a minor contributor of n-alkanes and long-chain fatty acids. 相似文献
