Abstract

Plant samples of Hornungia petraea were analyzed for glucosinolate (GLS) autolysis metabolites for the first time. GC–MS analysis of the autolysate and the synthesis of a series (12 compounds) of possible glucosinolate breakdown products revealed/corroborated the presence of glucoaubrietin, glucolimnanthin, glucolepigramin and glucotropaeolin in this species as the most likely “mustard oil” precursors. GLS degradation products identified in ...
