Abstract

The coordination of the results of different works for the systematization of the structures of products previously detected in the complex samples is an important stage in the interpretation of the results of the identification of the components of complex samples of natural origin by chromatography–mass spectrometry with the low reproducibility of their mass spectra under the conditions of electrospray ionization and limited reference information. The data processing of this kind was carried out for the products of the oxidation of the most common natural flavonoid quercetin (3,5,7,3',4'-pentahydroxyflavone) by atmospheric oxygen in weakly alkaline aqueous alcohol solutions. For the correlation of peaks in chromatograms with the structures of oxidation products, their reversed-phase HPLC retention indices in the scale of reference n-alkyl phenyl ketones were determined for the first time. It was confirmed that not all of the oxidation products are stable in solution; some of them can accumulate or disappear during the storage of the samples.
