Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To qualitatively analyze the chemical components in the leaves of the Miao Medicine
Toricellia Angulata Oliv. var.
intermedia(Harms) Hu by HPLC-HESI-HRMS.
Methods Thermo Fisher Hypersil GOLD aQ C
18(100 mm×2.1 mm, 1.9 μm) column was adopted, with 0.1% formic acid water solution-methyl cyanide(0.1% formic) as the mobile phase for gradient elution; HESI ion source was used for mass spectra, the date were collected in positive and negative mode. At the same time, the difference of retention time(
tR) between 7-hydroxycoumarin, secoxyloganin, hyperin and isoquercitrin with compounds
17,
20,
24 and
25 were verified by HPLC. Compared the fluorescence characteristics of TLC with
Rf values. And the characteristics of mass spectrometric fragmentation fragments of 7-hydroxycoumarin, secoxyloganin, hyperin and isoquercitrin were comprehensively verified in references.
Results Thirty-eight chemical components in the leaves of the Miao Medicine
Toricellia Angulata Oliv. var.
intermedia(Harms) Hu were inferred by analyzing positive and negative ion spectra information of high resolution mass spectrometer with date from data base and relevant literature, including 3 amino acids, 5 alkaloids, 10 organic acids, 3 phenylpropanoids, 3 aromatic oxygen-containing derivatives, 3 terpenes, 6 flavonoids, 1 amide and 4 other compounds. The results showed that the difference of
tR of 7-hydroxycoumarin, secoxyloganin, hyperin and isoquercitrin were <0.1 min compared with compounds
17,
20,
24 and
25, respectively. The same blue fluorescence spots were shown on the corresponding chromatographic positions of the medicinal sample solution, 7-hydroxycoumarin, secoxyloganin, hyperoside and isoquercitrin reference substances, and the
Rf values were consistent. And the literature showed that compounds
17,
20,
24 and
25 had similar characteristics of MS fragmentation to 7-hydroxycoumarin, secoxyloganin loganin, hyperoside and isoquercitrin, respectively.
Conclusion Compounds
17,
20,
24 and
25 were identified as 7-hydroxycoumarin, secoxyloganin, hyperin and isoquercitrin. It indicates that HPLC-HESI-HRMS has a scientific basis for the preliminary estimation of the chemical composition of the leaves of
Toricellia Angulata Oliv. var.
intermedia(Harms) Hu. It will provide basis for therapeutic material basis of the leaves of the Miao Medicine
Toricellia Angulata Oliv. var.
intermedia (Harms) Hu.
