“…Nevertheless, the use of octadecyl columns in the qualitative and quantitative analyses made it possible to identify polar phenolic compounds in a wider spectrum. Using UPLC-qTOF-MS/MS it was possible to identify altogether 42 constituents in tormentil products (Table 1), including well known compounds such as quinic acid stereoisomers (peaks 1 and 2), catechin (peak 10), procyanidin B3 (peak 8), procyanidin C2 (peak 9), ellagic acid (peak 38), pedunculagin anomers (peaks 3 and 7), potentillin (peak 35), agrimonic acid (peak 23), laevigatins (peaks 15, 20, 27 and 32) and agrimoniin (peak 41) (Okuda et al, 1982(Okuda et al, , 1984Yoshida et al, 1989aYoshida et al, , 1989bGeiger et al, 1994;Friedrich et al, 2000). Additionally there was a chance of identification of new compounds not described previously in this plant material such as the three isomeric monogalloylquinic acids (peaks 4-6) (Clifford et al, 2007) and 12 glycosides of ellagic or methylellagic acids (peaks 17, 18, 21, 24, 26, 28, 31, 36, 37, 39, 40 and 42) (Sun et al, 2014).…”
