Pure individual phytosterols were prepared using reversed-phase HPLC in order to
obtain the oxidized compounds of sitosterol, campesterol, stigmasterol and
brassicasterol. 7-Hydroxy-, 7-keto-, 5,6-epoxy-, 4beta-hydroxy-,
4-ene-6-hydroxy-, 6-keto- and 5alpha,6beta-dihydroxyphytosterols were obtained as
well as analogous compounds of cholesterol. The gas chromatographic properties as
well as the electronic impact mass spectra of these compounds (as trimethylsilyl
ether derivatives) were studied. These data were used to identify oxyphytosterols
in a spread enriched in phytosterols: the oxyphytosterols represented no more
than 68 microg/g of spread (about 0.08% of phytosterols were oxidised).
