A New Isomer of Chlorogenic Acid from Peaches

Abstract

NEOCHLOROGENIC acid, a new isomer of chlorogenic acid1, has been isolated from Elberta and Halford peaches by the use of counter-current distribution. It differs from the isochlorogenic acid2 isolated from coffee and it may be readily separated from chlorogenic acid which is present in somewhat larger amounts. Chlorogenic acid has been found in pears and apples3 and its presence indicated in peaches4.
