Abstract
Samples of 1,3β (1) and 1,5βdicaffeoylquinic acid (2) and their hexaacetate derivatives were examined using positive and negative electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry. Differences in the various spectra allow the discrimination of each of the isomers. Specific losses in the spectra of 2 also permit the identification of the site of substitution of one of the caffeic acid moieties as being at the 5βposition. The spectra of 3,5β (3) and 4,5βdicaffeoylquinic (4) acids and their hexaacetate derivatives were compared with those of 1 and 2 and their derivatives, and differences in ion abundances or the presence/absence of specific ions can be used to identify uniquely each of the compounds.
