Reaction of 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone (HMF) with cysteine or hydrogen sulfide at pH 4.5 for 60 min at 140 degrees C produced complex mixtures of volatile compounds, the majority of which contained sulfur. Sixty-nine compounds were identified, some tentatively, by GC/MS. These

Formation of the flavor compound and precursor 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3[2H]-furanone (HMF, norfuraneol) was demonstrated in cytosolic protein extracts obtained from Zygosaccharomyces rouxii after incubation with a number of carbohydrate phosphates. 4-Hydroxy-5-methyl-3[2H]-furanone was produced from d-fructose-1,6-diphosphate, d-fructose-6-phosphate, d-glucose-6-phosphate, 6-phosphogluconate, d-ribose-5-phosphate, and d-ribulose-1,5-diphosphate.
