S-Methyl- and S-allyl-L-cysteine and the corresponding sulfoxides naturally occurring in alliaceous and brassica vegetables were oxidized in model solutions with either glyoxal or K2S2O8. Oxidation of methiin led to 2-methylthioacetaldehyde and 2-allylthioacetaldehyde was formed from alliin. The same compounds also arised during cooking of vegetables. Mass spectra, retention time data and sensory characteristics of these Strecker aldehydes are presented.
