Location of the double-bond position of monounsaturated fatty acids of Aerococcus viridans was accomplished by combined gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry analysis of dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) derivatives. The monoenoic fatty acids from whole bacterial cells were converted to methyl esters and then to DMDS adducts and analyzed by capillary GC-mass spectrometry. The mass spectra of DMDS adducts gave an easily recognizable molecular ion (M+) and two major diagnostic ions attributable to fragmentation between the two CH3S groups located at the original site of unsaturation. Two relatively novel acids that distinguish aerococci from bacteria of closely related genera were identified as C16:1 omega 9c and C16:1 omega 9t from their mass spectrometry fragmentation patterns and retention characteristics on nonpolar capillary GC columns.
