Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The chemical and spectral properties of crystalline specimens of glycyrrhizic acid and its monoammonium salt have been studied. On the basis of1H and13C NMR results, diagnostic parameters of the 18β/18α-epimers have been revealed, and features of the structure of the carbohydrate moiety of these compounds are discussed.
