Nitrosation of N-methyltyramine and N-methyl-3-aminomethylindole, two barley malt alkaloids.
The secondary amine barley malt alkaloids N-methyltyramine and N-methyl-3-aminomethylindole were synthesized, nitrosated in dilute acetic acid and the products characterized by mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. The nitrosation products of N-methyltyramine were p-hydroxy-m-nitro-N-nitroso-N-methyl-2-phenylethylamine and p-hydroxy-N-nitroso-N-methyl-2-phenylethylamine. Upon nitrosation, N-methyl-3-aminomethylindole formed N-nitroso-N-methyl-3-aminomethylindole and the dinitrosated product N1-nitroso-N-nitroso-N-methyl-3-aminomethylindole.
