Glyoxal, methylglyoxal, and diacetyl formed from sucrose alone and from a D-glucose/ammonia Maillard model system were analyzed by gas chromatography. They are known as precursors of 4(5)-methylimidazole (MI). Glyoxal and methylglyoxal formed more in acidic conditions than in basic conditions, whereas diacetyl formed the most at the highest basic condition of pH 12. Glyoxal formation from sucrose ranged from 0.33 to 32.90 mu g/g under four different time and temperature conditions. Amounts of glyoxal, methylglyoxal, and diacetyl formed in Maillard model systems ranged from 2.98 to 46.12 mu g/mL, from 8.27 to 156.61 mu g/mL, and from 14.94 to 1588.45 mu g/mL, respectively. 4(5)-MI formation in the same model systems ranged from 28.56 to 1269.71 mu g/mL. Addition of sodium sulfite reduced formation of these chemicals significantly. Total alpha-dicarbonyl compounds in 12 commercial soft drinks ranged from 5.75 to 50.72 mu g/mL. 4(5)-MI was found in levels ranging from 1.76 to 28.11 mu g/mL in 10 commercial soft drinks.
