*, It is the relative abundance detected by mass spectrometry, and there is no the peak in UV, detection, and the relative abundances of other peaks detected by the two detectors are similar.

Theoretical Mass (m/z) = Exact Mass +1.0073 (H+); Exact Mass: Monoisotopic Mass; Error (ppm) = [(Measured Mass - Theoretical Mass) ÷Theoretical Mass]×106; NA: not applicable.
