Stacked plots showing the similarities between the 1D 13C–DEPTQ spectra of silybin A (1), silybin B (2), isosilybin A (3), and isosilybin B (4) (DMSO-d6, 225 MHz, 298 K). Primary and tertiary carbons (CH, CH3) are positive signals, quaternary and secondary carbons (C, CH2) are negative signals. The artifact (*) and the DMSO signal are symmetric with respect to the center of the spectrum (i.e., transmitter offset). Labels A-E indicate the positions of extended regions shown in the lower panel, where small differences in 13C chemical shifts between the four isomers are highlighted.
