ABSTRACT
2
Two phenolic extracts were made from a red wine grape pomace (GP) and fractionated first
3
by sequential liquid-liquid extraction with organic solvents. The aqueous fraction was
4
fractionated by low pressure chromatography on Toyopearl HW-40 gel and on C18.
5
Different fractions were obtained by sequential elution with aqueous/organic solvents, and
6
then analysed by liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry (LC-DAD/MS and
7
MALDI-TOF). Over 50 anthocyanin based pigments were detected by LC-DAD/MS in GP,
8
mainly
9
methylpyranoanthocyanins. The presence of oligomeric malvidin-3-O-coumaroylglucoside-
10
based anthocyanins were also detected in GP using both mass spectrometry techniques LC-

Introduction
17
Grape pomace, GP (skins and seeds) is the main waste product produced by the wine
18
industry obtained from the grapes/must pressing during the winemaking process and
19
corresponds to about 30% of the grapes initial weight. Similarly to wines, GP is a very
20
complex matrix containing different classes of polyphenolic compounds (phenolic
21
acids, flavanols, flavones, anthocyanins, etc)1-4 which means that GP can be used as a
22
good source of high-valuable compounds, since these compounds are not fully extracted
23
from grapes into wine. The higher or lower amounts of polyphenolic compounds present
24
in GP are directly correlated to the grape variety and more importantly to the wine-
25
making process. For example, due to the lack of maceration of grape skins during the
26
rose wine production, it is expected that the GP produced herein presents higher
27
concentrations of polyphenolic compounds when compared to the GP obtained by
28
pressing the grape must after the end of alcoholic fermentation in red wines.
29
Moreover, there is a current trend in the food and cosmetics industries to find pigments
30
from natural sources, and GP could be the ideal source as is inexpensive and contains
31
considerable amounts of anthocyanins.5,
32
distilleries that use it to produce mainly alcohol. With this management plan the referred
33
potential bioactive compounds are being lost in the process. These materials can be easily
34
transformed, with adequate processing steps, from a low-value resource into a very
35
interesting high-value one in terms of consumer choice and acceptance in the food,
36
cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
37
Furthermore, many works have been published related to the beneficial effects of the
38
grape pomace extracts.7-10 The majority of those studies use white grape pomace and
39
therefore the anthocyanin content and identity of anthocyanin-derived compounds in red
40
grape pomace is known in a lesser extent.4, 5, 11, 12 Bearing this, the aim of this work is to
41
identify the anthocyanins and anthocyanin-derived pigments present in a red grape

Nowadays, wine companies sell the GP to

pomace from the Douro Demarcated Region from North of Portugal using mass
43
spectrometry techniques such as, LC-DAD/MS and MALDI-TOF. LC-DAD/MS is very
44
complementary to MALDI-TOF analysis. On one hand LC-DAD/MS provides the
45
means to make peak assignments and acquire quantitative data by relying on UV-VIS
46
data and mass spectra data. On the other hand MALDI-TOF analysis is the ideal
47
technique for the analysis of complex mixtures as it produces only a singly charged
48
molecular ion for each parent molecule. Another important difference between ESI-MS
49
and MALDI-TOF is that sometimes when analysing highly concentrated anthocyanin
50
solutions (even pure standards) you can detect stacking in ESI-MS, which is the double
51
(or sometimes even triple) of the anthocyanin m/z. Stacking has not been reported to
52
occur in MALDI-TOF analysis.

Materials and methods
55
Red grape pomace.
56
Red GP (wine seeds and skins) was provided by Gran Cruz – Sociedade Comercial de
57
Vinhos, Lda. (a Douro and Port wine company from the North of Portugal) and was
58
obtained as a result of the pressing of the red wine must after the end of the alcoholic
59
fermentation. The red wine must was made from the main red varieties produced in the
60
Douro Region (Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca and Tinto
61
Cão).
62 63
Red grape pomace extracts.
64
A red GP extract (Extract 1) was obtained by the extraction of 250 g of red GP with 1
65
L of water/methanol/acetone 3.5/1.5/5 solvent acidified with HCl (0.01 M). The
66
solution was sonicated in an ice bath for 30 min and then the solids filtered using glass

67
wool. A similar extract (Extract 2) was obtained but in this case the solution was
68
sonicated for 18 h.
69 70
Purification of the grape pomace extracts.
71
Organic solvents were removed from the previous extracts 1 and 2, by evaporation in a
72
rotoevaporator under vacuum. and the resulting aqueous extract (200 mL) was
73
submitted to a liquid-liquid extraction procedure with 2 x 200 mL hexane. After
74
rotoevaporation of the hexane, the residue was analysed by HPLC-DAD-MS. The
75
proteins present in the aqueous fraction were precipitated in cold methanol (1:50) and
76
then removed by centrifugation. The aqueous fractions (Extract 1 and 2) without
77
proteins were lyophilized and then analysed by LC/DAD-MS and MALDI-TOF.
78 79
Fractionation of the grape pomace extracts.
80
1 g of GP Extract 1 was applied on top of a C18 (20 g) column and different fractions
81
were obtained by elution with water acidified with formic acid (1%), ethyl ether, ethyl
82
acetate and aqueous solution with increasing percentages of methanol (10%, 30%, 60%
83
and 100%, v/v) acidified with formic acid. Additionally, 100 mg of the same extract
84
were fractionated by TSK Toyopearl 40-HW(S) column chromatography using different
85
aqueous solvents with increasing percentages of methanol (0, 10, 20, 30 and 100%,
86
v/v). The obtained fractions were analysed by LC/DAD-MS and MALDI-TOF.
87
1 g of Extract 2 dissolved in 200 mL of water was submitted to a liquid-liquid
88
extraction procedure with ethyl acetate (3 x 200 mL) and isoamyl alcohol (2 x 200
89
mM). All the fractions were analysed by LC/DAD-MS.

92
The anthocyanin and anthocyanin-derived compounds composition of each fraction was
93
evaluated by LC/DAD-MS. An Accela series liquid chromatograph, equipped with a
94
150x4.6 mm i.d., 5 µm LicroCART® reversed-phase C18 column was used and
95
detection was carried out between 200-600 nm using an Accela PDA detector. The mass
96
detection was performed using a LTQ Orbitrap XL mass spectrometer (Thermo Fischer
97
Scientific, Bremen, Germany) controlled by LTQ Tune Plus 2.5.5 and Xcalibur 2.1.0.
98
Solvents were A: H2O/HCOOH (99:1), and B: HCOOH/H2O/CH3CN (1:69:30). The
99
gradient was performed using an Accela 600 Pump and consisted of 20-85% B for 70
100
min at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The column was washed with 100% B for 10 min and
101
then stabilized with the initial conditions for another 10 min. The capillary voltage of
102
the electrospray ionization (ESI) was set to 3100 V and the capillary temperature was
103
275 ºC. The sheath gas flow rate (nitrogen) was set to 5 (arbitrary unit as provided by
104
the software settings). The capillary voltage was 49 V and the tube lens voltage 250 V.
105
Spectra were recorded in positive ion mode between m/z 50 and 2000. The mass
106
spectrometer was programmed to do a series of three scans: a full scan mass, a zoom
107
scan of the most intense ion in the first scan (SIM – Selected Ion Monitoring), and a
108
MS-MS of the most intense ion using relative collision energy of 30 and 60 V.
109 110
MALDI-TOF (Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight) analysis.
111
The different GP fractions were analysed by MALDI-TOF using an UltrafleXtreme
112
mass spectrometer (Bruker, Bremen, Germany) operating in positive reflectron ion
113
detection mode with laser SmartBeamIII and under FlexCompass 1.4 software control
114
(Bruker Daltonics, Germany). For each sample the laser power was adjusted to 55%, the
115
detector gain 4.0x (2410V) and the mass range between 200 and 3500.

116
For the sample preparation, a tIAA (trans-3-indolacrylic acid) matrix (≥98.5%, Sigma-
117
Aldrich, USA) 50 mg/mL was prepared in an aqueous solution of 70% (v/v) acetone.
118
Moreover, each grape pomace fraction was prepared in the same solvent in a
119
concentration of 5 mg/mL. The polyphenolic fractions eluted from the Toyopearl
120
column were mixed with the matrix solution at volumetric ratios of (1:2). The
121
analyte:matrix mixture was first deionized with Dowex 50X8-400 cation exchange resin
122
(Supelco), equilibrated in 70% aq. acetone (v/v). Positive ion mode was used for the
123
detection of anthocyanins. Two microliters from each sample (after mixing with the
124
matrix and the resin) was applied onto a stainless steel target plate (MTP 394 target
125
plate ground steel BC, Bruker Daltonik GmbH, Germany) and fully air-dried. For each
126
assay, three sample spot replicates were analysed and samples were spotted in triplicate.

Results and discussion

GP anthocyanic profile by LC/DAD-MS
131
According to the LC/DAD analysis of the red GP Extract 1 without using any previous
132
fractionation methodology it was possible to observe in the chromatogram recorded at
133
520 nm, the presence of twelve peaks (Figure 1A). The main compound was identified
134
by its UV-Visible spectra, retention time, ion mass (m/z 639) in the positive ion mode
135
and fragmentation pattern (MS2 331) and was attributed to the malvidin-3-O-
136
coumaroylglucoside (peak 43) (Figure 1 and Table 1). The area of malvidin-3-O-
137
coumaroylglucoside represents around 65% of the total area. The chromatographic
138
profile (Figure 1) of the GP extract is quite different from one that is usually observed
139
in grapes and young red wines where generally, malvidin-3-O-glucoside is the main
140
anthocyanin present with the coumaroyl-derivative being the second most intense
7

141
especially in the Douro region.13 The appearance of this chromatographic profile can be
142
due to the specificities of the winemaking process or it can be explained by the lower
143
solubility of the coumaroyl-derivative in aqueous solution, slowing or limiting its
144
diffusion to the hydroalcoholic solution during the fermentation/winemaking process.
145
Additionally to the malvidin-3-O-coumaroylglucoside pigment, other peaks were
146
detected in the same GP extract corresponding to the four non-acylated anthocyanins-3-
147
O-glucosides mainly present in grapes and red wines (delphinidin, petunidin, peonidin
148
and malvidin) and to some of their acetylated, coumaroylated and caffeoylated
149
derivatives (Figure 1 and Table 1). The presence of the A and B-type vitisins
150
compounds were also observed (peaks 10 and 13, respectively) (Figure 1 and Table 1).
151
Moreover, the detection of a compound (peak 40) (Figure 1) with the same ion mass as
152
the malvidin-3-O-coumaroylglucoside (m/z 639) (peak 43) in the positive ion mode was
153
observed. Similarly to what was reported in the literature by Monagas et al. (2003) and
154
Núñez et al. (2004)14, 15 in grapes and wines from Vitis vinifera this can be attributed to
155
the occurrence of the cis isomer of the malvidin-3-O-(6-p-coumaroyl)-glucoside (40) in
156
GP that is present in smaller amounts when compared with the trans isomer.
157
In order to obtain fractions with different chemical compositions and therefore better
158
characterize the GP extract polyphenolic composition, a fractionation methodology was
159
developed. First, the anthocyanin and anthocyanin-derived compounds from Extract 1
160
were separated in a reverse phase C-18 resin and eluted with solvents that present
161
different polarities, namely, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate, water and aqueous solutions with
162
increasing percentages of methanol. With the less polar solvent (ethyl ether) it was
163
possible to remove the chlorophylls and the hydrophobic fractions but due to its lack of
164
solubility in water or methanolic solvents this fraction was not analyzed by LC/DAD-
165
MS. No additional peaks were detected in those fractions obtained from the
8
ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
166
fractionation of the GP with C-18 resin or with Toyopearl HW-40(S) gel when
167
compared to direct analysis of the GP extract (Extract 1). The main exception was the
168
fraction eluted with 60% (v/v) methanol where it was possible to detect by LC-MS in
169
positive ion mode the presence of the malvidin-3-O-coumaroylglucoside dimer (49)
170
(m/z 1277) and the malvidin-3-O-glucoside trimer (4) (m/z 1477) (Figure 2) both
171
already reported in the literature to be present in red grapes and wines.16-18 The
172
possibility of detecting anthocyanins self-assembling by LC-MS made us think that
173
these signals detected in fraction 60% (v/v) methanol could be due to the auto-
174
association
175
respectively, leading to the formation of the dimer and the trimer. To confirm that dimer
176
and trimer are isolated compounds and not products formed during the anthocyanins
177
auto-association, MALDI-TOF analysis was used and the results are discussed below.
178
However, the high complexity of the red GP was possible to recognize after the
179
LC/DAD-MS analysis of GP Extract 2 where the solid/solvent contact time was
180
increased to 18 hours. In this extract more than fifty different anthocyanin and
181
anthocyanin-derived compounds were detected and the most of them identified (Table
182
1). In this extract the five anthocyanins-monoglucosides (delphinidin, cyanidin,
183
petunidin, peonidin and malvidin), two acetylglucoside derivatives (petunidin and
184
malvidin), five coumaroyl-derivatives and three caffeoyl-derivatives (delphinidin,
185
peonidin and malvidin) were identified based on their ion mass, fragmentation patterns
186
(Table 1) and UV-Visible spectra (data not shown). The presence of these anthocyanins
187
in GP is not surprising since they are present in red grapes and therefore are also
188
expected to be present in the resulting red GP.19, 20 Additionally, in the mass spectrum in
189
the positive ion mode was detected an ion mass at m/z 655 (peak 5) and two fragments
190
m/z 493 (- 162 a.m.u.) and m/z 331 (- 2 x 162 a.m.u). The fragmentation pattern is in
of
malvidin-3-O-coumaroylglucoside
and
malvidin-3-O-glucoside,

191
agreement with the presence of the malvidin aglycone (m/z 331) and two glucose
192
moieties (- 2 x 162 a.m.u) like is observed in malvidin-3,5-diglucoside (malvin). This is
193
also corroborated by the retention time that is smaller (RT 39.13 min) than the one
194
observed for malvidin-3-glucoside (RT 42.92 min) as is expected for a diglucoside
195
(more polar) in a reverse phase C-18 column. The presence of malvin is not expected to
196
occur in Vitis vinifera grapes and only in other Vitis sp. Even though its occurrence in
197
Vitis vinifera-based GP has never been reported in the literature, Baldi et al. and Heier
198
et al. have detected small amounts of anthocyanin-3,5-diglucosides in Vitis vinifera L.
199
grapes and wines.20, 21 Moreover, the same ion mass (m/z 655) was observed later in the
200
mass chromatogram (RT 65.43 min) but in this case the fragmentation pattern was m/z
201
331 (corresponding to the loss of a caffeoylglucoside moiety, - 324 a.m.u.) and by this
202
was attributed to the malvidin-3-O-caffeoylglucoside (32). Furthermore, seven A-type
203
vitisins
204
coumaroylated and caffeoylated) were also detected in red GP and identified by
205
comparison with their known fragmentation patterns (Table 1) reported in the
206
literature.22-24 Similarly, five B-type vitisins and three methylpyranoanthocyanins were
207
also identified based on their fragmentation patterns (Table 1).25,
208
fragmentation pattern of A and B-type vitisins is the loss of their sugar moiety that can
209
be in their non-acylated (glucose – 162 a.m.u.) or acylated (acetylglucose – 204 a.m.u.,
210
coumaroylglucose – 308 a.m.u. or caffeoylglucose – 324 a.m.u.) forms giving origin to
211
the respective A and vitisin aglycones (m/z 399 and 355, respectively for the malvidin-
212
derived compounds). The presence of these anthocyanin-derived pigments, although
213
expected, has never been reported in the literature for grape pomace.
214
Besides, anthocyanin-derived compounds containing a catechin moiety were also
215
detected in GP. These compounds belong to the family of the malvidin-methylmethine-
(petunidin,
peonidin
and
malvidin-based,
non-acylated,
26
acetylated,
The typical

catechin pigments and were identified by their ion mass (m/z 809) and characteristic
217
fragmentation patterns (m/z 519 and 357) according to the data reported in the
218
literature27. These ion mass and fragmentation patterns were observed for two
219
compounds (15 and 21) (Table 1) and two explanations can be given for this. First, the
220
malvidin-methylmethine-catechin pigment has an asymmetric carbon in the
221
methylmethine group and this way two enantiomers are possible to be present. Another
222
explanation is the possibility of formation of a similar compound but in this case with (-
223
)-epicatechin instead of the (+)-catechin. As (+)-catechin and (-)-epicatechin are isomers
224
the same ion mass and fragmentation patterns are expected to occur in (-)-epicatechin-
225
based pigments. The unequivocal identification of these compounds is not possible to
226
achieve through LC-MS spectrometry and only using NMR spectroscopy that structure
227
would be confirmed. The coumaroyl-derivative of this compound was also found to
228
occur in GP (42) (Table 1). Moreover, the presence of two pyranomalvidin compounds
229
with a phenol moiety were also detected and identified by LC/DAD-MS in the GP
230
extract, namely, the pyranomalvidin-3-O-glucoside-phenol (46) and the respective
231
coumaroyl-derivative (50). The ion mass detected at 82.85 min with m/z 813 and
232
fragment
233
coumaroylglucoside-pyrogallol (48) (Figure 3A, Table 1) with a structure similar to B-
234
type portisins but that has never been described in the literature. However, this is only a
235
hypothetical structure since no full characterization by NMR has been performed on the
236
compound due to its small concentration in GP. On the other hand, the ion mass m/z 671
237
detected in GP extract with a fragment at m/z 331 was attributed to the malvidin-3-O-
238
galloylglucoside (41) (Figure 3B, Table 1). The galloylated-derivative of anthocyanins
239
has never been described in the literature. However, this identification is only based on
240
the fragmentation pattern of the molecule as the full characterization of the compound

241
by NMR was not possible. Additionally, small amounts of the malvidin-3-O-caftaric
242
acid (11) (Figure 3C, Table 1) were also detected in the GP extract. Moreover, some
243
compounds with known fragmentation patterns, namely loss of glucose or RDA (Retro-
244
Dials Alder) fragmentation that indicates the presence of a flavanol moiety were also
245
observed nevertheless, the identity of these compounds was not achieved. Their ion
246
masses are not reported in the literature and using only mass spectrometry it is not
247
possible to fully identify these anthocyanin-derived compounds. Additionally, the small
248
amounts of the compounds present in the GP extract makes its full characterization by
249
NMR nearly impossible to accomplish. These compounds are indicated in Table 1 as
250
“unknown”.
251 252
MALDI-TOF
253
The use of the mass spectrometry MALDI-TOF technique to characterize the
254
oligomeric nature of the GP extract was of crucial importance since the presence of the
255
oligomeric anthocyanins ion masses (m/z 1277, 1477, 1623 and 1915) in the ESI-MS
256
could be due to a self-assembling mechanism that sometimes is possible to observe
257
when the concentration of the sample is high in this mass spectrometry technique. In
258
MALDI-TOF stacking has not been reported to occur.
259
Figures 4a and 4b show the MALDI-TOF analysis of the GP extract (Extract 1). It can
260
be observed that the ion at m/z 639 is the most intense, which is in agreement with
261
Figure 1, malvidin-3-O-coumaroylglucoside (compound 43).
262
Figure 4b shows a series of masses that could correspond to oligomeric coumaroylated
263
anthocyanins: the ion at m/z 1131 might be a mono coumaroylated malvidin-3-O-
264
glucoside dimer, the ion at m/z 1277 could correspond to the malvidin-3-O-
265
coumaroylglucoside dimer (compound 49, Table 1), the ion at m/z 1623 could be a

mono coumaroylated malvidin-3-O-glucoside trimer (compound 23, Table 1), the ion at
267
m/z 1769 might be di-coumaroylated malvidin-3-O-glucoside trimer and finally the ion
268
at m/z 1915 could correspond to a trimer of malvidin 3-O-coumaroylglucoside. This
269
latter in its non-acylated glucoside form has already been detected in a young Port
270
wine.18
271
MALDI-TOF-TOF fragmentation of the ion at m/z 1915 gave fragments at m/z 1607 (-
272
308), m/z 1461 and m/z 331 (Figure 5). The loss of 308 mass units corresponds to a
273
glucose acylated with a coumaric acid, the loss of 146 mass units corresponds to a
274
coumaric acid moiety, therefore it can be concluded that these fragmentations confirms
275
the suspected nature of the trimer.
276
MALDI-TOF has already been used in the analysis of oligomeric food polyphenols,28
277
mainly procyanidins, however it is not commonly used in anthocyanin analysis since
278
monomeric anthocyanins have a molecular weight of around 500 mass units, which is a
279
difficult mass range for MALDI-TOF analysis. However, oligomeric pigments
280
containing both anthocyanins and flavanols have already been detected by MALDI-TOF
281
to occur in cranberry fruit.28, 29 Nevertheless, to our knowledge, this is the first study
282
where MALDI-TOF is used for the analysis of oligomeric anthocyanins.
283
One of the late eluting fractions (obtained with 100% organic solvent in low pressure
284
chromatography with Toyopearl HW-40(S) gel) was particularly enriched in less
285
hydrophilic pigments. This fraction was mainly composed of coumaroyl derivatives of
286
anthocyanins (monomers and oligomers).
287 288
Grape pomace is an interesting source of anthocyanin based pigments (both native and
289
derived), as over 50 different anthocyanin based compounds were detected in this study.
290
Oligomeric anthocyanins with coumaroylated derivatives of malvidin were detected by
13

291
means of mass spectrometry for the first time in this work, and it remains still unknown
292
the influence of oligomeric anthocyanins on wine color; these oligomeric anthocyanins
293
(malvidin-3-O-glucoside trimer) have already been detected in young port wine,
294
however, the less hydrophilic nature of oligomeric coumaroylated anthocyanins arises
295
the question of their extractability in wine. Moreover, recently the equilibrium forms of
296
malvidin-3-O-glucoside trimer present in grape skins were studied in aqueous solution
297
at different pH values through UV-Visible spectroscopy. It was observed that the
298
reactivity of this compound is strongly dominated by acid-base chemistry, with the
299
hydration reaction accounting less than 10% of the overall reactivity.30 This points to
300
that polymerization may be a natural stabilization mechanism for the red color of
301
anthocyanins.
