Pyrazines are among the most important compound class conveying the odor impressions "roasty", "nutty", and "earthy". They are formed by the Maillard reaction and occur ubiquitously in heated foods. The excretion of metabolites of the key flavor odorant 2,3,5-trimethylpyrazine, abundant in the volatile fraction of roasted coffee, was investigated. Based on literature suggestions, putative phase 1 and phase 2 metabolites were synthesized, characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopy data and used as standards for targeted, quantitative analysis of coffee drinkers' urine using stable-isotope-dilution-ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectroscopy (SIDA-UHPLC-MS/MS). The analysis of spot urine samples from a coffee intervention study revealed 3,6-dimethylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, 3,5-dimethylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, and 5,6-dimethylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid were quantitatively dominating metabolites. Only negligible traces of pyrazinemethanols (3,6-dimethyl-2-pyrazinemethanol and 3,5,6-trimethylpyrazine-2-ol), glucuronides ((3,6-dimethylpyrazine-2-yl-)methyl-O-ß-D-glucuronide and (3,5-dimethylpyrazine-2-yl-)methyl-O-ß-D-glucuronide), and sulfates ((3,6-dimethylpyrazine-2-yl-)methyl-sulfate and (3,5-dimethylpyrazine-2-yl-)methyl-sulfate) were detected.
