Abstract
Two unidentified sugars were isolated from rose petals using HPLC. The isolated compounds were identified as methyl beta-glucopyranoside and xylose using H-1-NMR, C-13-NMR, and GC-MS. Methyl beta-glucopyranosid e and xylose were distributed in three cultivars tested relatively in large amounts, These results indicate that methyl beta-glucopyranoside and xylose occur universally as soluble sugar constituents in roses.
