Abstract:
High-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was used for the separation of anthocyanins on a preparative scale from bilberry fruit crude extract (Vaccinium myrtillus, Ericaceae) with a biphasic solvent system composed of methyl tert-butyl ether-n-butanol-acetonitrile-water-trifluoroacetic acid (1:4:1:5:0.01, v/v). Each injection of 500 mg crude extract yielded 130 mg of pure delphinidin-3-O-sambubioside, and 77 mg of pure cyanidin-3-O-sambubioside. The two anthocyanin disaccharides with a glucose (2 --> 1) xylose unit are novel compounds for bilberry fruit, and were elucidated by means of electrospray ionization MS-MS, 1H, 13C, distortion less enhancement by polarization transfer NMR, and two-dimensional HC-correlation experiments (heteronuclear multiple bond correlation and heteronuclear multiple quantum correlation).

Chromatography: Introduction
The phase in which the compounds linger or on which the compounds adsorb is called the stationary phase, whereas the mobile phase is the solvent that carries the solutes to be analyzed. In traditional column chromatography, the mixture flows through the stationary phase, and the compounds partition between the stationary and mobile phases...
