Abstract(s)

The phenolic composition from different morphological parts of Helichrysum obconicum was investigated for the first time and 50 different phenolic compounds were detected. Phenolic acid conjugates, mainly mono- and di-caffeoylquinic acid derivatives, were the major components; some flavonoid derivatives were also detected in small amounts. Their separation and identification was performed by a high-performance liquid chromatography/electron spray ionisation tandem ion trap mass spectrometry method, with special emphasis on MSn fragmentation. The presence of di- and tricaffeoylshikimic acid isomers in Helichrysum species extracts was reported for the first time, the spectra of these compounds were mainly characterised by the presence of a [caffeoylshikimic acid-H]- ion at m/z 335. A lamiridosins-di-O-hexoside, an unusual component in Asteraceae species, was also detected.
