Notes:
Polyphenolic compounds were extracted with ethyl acetate from aqueous infusions of canned Blenheim apricots (Prunus armenica L.). The compounds were separated by two-dimensional paper chromatography of the extract with n-butanol-acetic acid-water (4:1:5) and 2% acetic acid. The individual compounds were identified by Rf values, fluorescent behavior, absorption spectra, and degradation products. Shown to be present in the extract were three chlorogenic acid isomers, two p-coumaric acid derivatives, rutin, isoquercitrin, quercetin, an unidentified quercetin glucoside, catechin, and epicatechin. The predominant polyphenolic compounds were chlorogenic acids and p-coumaric acid derivatives.
