Abstract

Five known and one new sesquiterpene lactones were isolated from fresh chicory roots (Cichorium intybus). The new compound 11(S),13-dihydrolactucopicrin was identified by UV, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The extraction procedure and HPLC analysis of sesquiterpene lactones in chicory were improved. The bitterness detection thresholds of all compounds were individually determined by triangle testing
