Abstract

A fraction of very polar compounds obtained from roots of Urtica dioica (stinging nettle) was converted into trimethylsilyl derivatives and subjected to gas chromatography. Mass spectra obtained from the single components indicated the presence of phenolic and other glucosides. Phenolic glucosides could be distinguished from alcoholic glucosides by their typical mass spectral fragmentation behaviour. A new type of phenolic glycerol ether glucosides is reported. Its structure was established by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The synthesis of one of the new ether aglycones is described.
