Abstract
A novel approach for the removal of toxic glucosinolates from rapeseed meal has been successfully tried. Synthetic bowl-shaped tetrameric macromolecule 2 from cetanal and resorcinol has been synthesized. These lipophilic molecules have been used in CCl4 at various concentrations (0.03−0.05 mM) to check the effect on the total glucosinolates content (TGC) by using the Croft method. Glucosinolates were found to decrease linearly with increases in concentration of 2 in CCl4. The overall reduction of TGC was up to 66%. The results were also complimented by electronic absorption of CCl4 containing 2 after extraction. Keywords: Tetrameric molecules; host−guest complexation; glucosinolates; extraction; rapeseed meal
