A simple dignostic method using Fast Atom Bombardment mass spectrometry was applied to the characterization of green tea flavonols from the eluates of Sepahadex LH-20 column chromatography. From the ethyl acetate extracts, crude mixture of flavonol fraction(Fr.$1{sim}4$) were separated by the stepwise gradient elution with 30, 45, and 60% aqueous acetone. Procyanidine B analogues were found to be typical constituents of Fr. 1. Main components of Fr. 2 were catechins and gallo-catechins. Fr. 3 contained mainly ester type compounds, catechin-gallates, gallocatechin-gallates with their analogues. Fr. 4 was contaminated with some phthalate esters.
