[Correlation of cyanogenic glycosides with content of benzyl alcohol in cherry brandies (author's transl)]. 1977

R Tuttas, and A Nahrstedt

A clear correlation between cyanogenic glycosides and the content of benzyl alcohol in fermented mash of cherries was indicated by model experiments with amygdalin and fermenting yeast, cherry-stones with and without fermenting yeasts as well as bitter and sweet almonds. These correlations proofed that benzyl alcohol has to be regarded as a metabolic product of mandelonitrileglycosides.

D006027 Glycosides Any compound that contains a constituent sugar, in which the hydroxyl group attached to the first carbon is substituted by an alcoholic, phenolic, or other group. They are named specifically for the sugar contained, such as glucoside (glucose), pentoside (pentose), fructoside (fructose), etc. Upon hydrolysis, a sugar and nonsugar component (aglycone) are formed.
