AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, the separation of (Z/E)-2-β-D-glucopyranoyl-4-methoxycinnamic acid (GMCA) geometric isomers in chamomile is difficult, making it hard to obtain high-purity single isomer samples, and there are errors in structural assignment and isomer characteristics.
A combination of ethanol extraction, supercritical fluid chromatography, and semi-preparative liquid chromatography was used to obtain high-purity (Z/E)-2-β-D-glucopyranoyl-4-methoxycinnamic acid geometric isomers. The isomers were first pre-separated by supercritical fluid chromatography and then purified by semi-preparative liquid chromatography.
The efficient separation and purification of the (Z/E)-2-β-D-glucopyranoyl-4-methoxycinnamic acid isomer was achieved, correcting structural misannotation and providing high-purity samples for quality evaluation and activity studies.
