Structure of the pectic acid of Matricaria chamomilla

  • Published:
Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

Summary

The main features of the structure of the pectic acid from the racemes of German chanomile have been established. The main polysaccharide chain consists of D-galacturonic acid residues in the pyranose form with α-1→4 bonds. Isolated single-unit branches of the neutral monosaccharides galactose, arabinose, and xylose are possible. L-rhamnose, which was isolated from the degradation products of the permethylated pectic acid only in the form of 3,4-di-O-methyl-L-rhamnose is apparently included in the main polysaccharide chain.
