The reactions of propanal and pentanal with 2-(hydroxymethyl)piperidine were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry/attenuated total reflectance in both the solution phase and at the gas/solid interface. The reactions were studied with the use of a flow-through cylindrical internal reflection (“circle”) cell. Reaction intermediates were tentatively identified by their characteristic infrared absorption frequencies. At the gas/solid interface the reaction is thought to yield a hemiaminal intermediate. In the solution phase a hemiaminal intermediate is believed to form initially, followed by loss of water to generate an enamine product. In both gas-phase and solution-phase studies, an oxazolidine product is prepared only after an ultrasound treatment. The FT-IR/ATR technique reveals detailed mechanistic information concerning reactions between aldehydes and ethanol amines.

The assessment of wine authenticity is a critical issue that has gained a lot of interest internationally. A simple and fast method was developed for the varietal classification of Greek wines according to grape cultivar using attenuated total reflectance (ATR) Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The phenolic content and color parameters of wine samples (n=88) made by two white (Vilana and Dafni) and two red (Kotsifali and Mandilari) grape varieties were measured and their FT-IR spectra were recorded. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of their chemical parameters indicated that the wines can be discriminated based on their different phenolic content. The spectroscopic analysis combined with discriminant analysis of the fingerprint region of the spectra (1800-900 cm-1) resulted in complete discrimination of the grape varieties. The proposed method in comparison with the rest analytical methods is simpler, less time consuming, more economical and requires reduced quantities of chemical reagents prior to analysis.
