Structural Characterization of Triterpene Saponins from Manchurian Aralia by High Resolution Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry

Resumo

The mass-spectrometric characteristics of triterpene saponins from Manchurian aralia were studied using high-performance liquid chromatography in combination with high-resolution mass-spectrometric detection. Conditions for the preparation of extracts for the determination of triterpene saponin concentrations in plant raw materials were optimized. The experimental mass-spectrometric characteristics of triterpene saponins were compared with those described in the literature, and the structural formulas of test compounds were proposed.
