The diagnostic fragment ions of the aglycone quercetin were obtained in the ESI-MS(n) experiments, and a fragmentation mechanism proposed.     

Isolation and characterization of flavonols from blackcurrant by high-performance counter-current chromatography and electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry

Blackcurrant is considered as a natural high-value food raw material and possesses a variety of therapeutic properties. The health benefits of blackcurrant have generally been credited to its high anthocyanin content; however, the therapeutic properties of other minor flavonoids constituents have not yet been investigated due the difficulties related to their isolation. Multiple steps of high-performance counter-current chromatography in combination with ESI tandem mass spectrometry (MS(n)) were successfully used for the preparative isolation of flavonols from blackcurrant extract, to study their electrospray ionization mass spectrometry fragmentation behavior. Seven flavonols, namely myricetin-3-O-rutinoside (145.5 mg), myricetin-3-O-hexoside (79.7 mg), myricetin-3-O-(6″-malonyl)-glucoside (17.4 mg), kaempferol-3-O-glucoside (20.5 mg), quercetin-3-O-rutinoside (55.1 mg), quercetin-3-O-hexoside (25.8 mg), and myricetin (129.1 mg) have been successfully isolated and their multistage MS(n) data were used for detailed structure characterization. The results of these experiments demonstrated that high-performance counter-current chromatography along with ESI-MS(n) is a sensitive, selective, and effective technology for isolation and characterization of minor constituents from a complex mixture.     

Chemical composition and antioxidant activities of extracts from Apocyni Veneti Folium

An expeditious and effective HPLC-UV method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of seven major flavonoids in Apocyni Veneti Folium (AVF) extract. The chemical profile of seven flavonoids, including quercetin-3-O-β-D-glc(2?→?1)-β-D-glucoside, rutin, isoquercetin, kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucoside, quercetin-3-O-(6″-O-malonyl)-β-D-glucoside, quercetin and kaempferol was acquired by HPLC-UV. The analysis was performed on a Diamosil C18 analytical column with a gradient solvent system of acetonitrile-0.1% aqueous acetic acid. Full validation of the method was carried out (linearity, reproducibility, repeatability, accuracy and limit of detection). The results indicated that the contents of investigated flavonoids in Apocyni Veneti Folium varied significantly from habitat to habitat, with contents ranging from 0.01 to 5.57 mg g?1. The antioxidant activity results demonstrate that the seven flavonoids showed great efficiency in scavenging DPPH radicals. The high content of flavonoid components of AVF could be responsible for its high antioxidant activity. This study provides powerful evidence for the relationship between the chemical ingredients of and bioactivity in AVF.     

Simultaneous determination of seven flavonoids in Potentilla multifida by HPLC

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method is described for the simultaneous determination of seven flavonoids in Potentilla multifida: hyperin, quercetin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, luteolin-7-O-beta-D-glucuronide, apigenin-7-O-beta-D-glucuronide, quercetin, tribuloside, and apigenin.

The recovery of the method is 95.4-104.8%, and linearity (r > 0.9998) is obtained for all the flavonoids. The results indicate that the flavonoid content of P. multifida varied significantly from locality to locality.     

Preparative isolation of novel antioxidant flavonoids of alfalfa by stop-and-go counter-current chromatography and following on-line liquid chromatography desalination

In this work, we have established a new stop-and-go two-dimensional chromatography coupling of counter-current chromatography and liquid chromatography (2D CCC × LC) for the preparative separation of two novel antioxidant flavonoids from the extract of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). The CCC column has been used as the first dimension to purify the target flavonoids using a solvent system of isopropanol and 20% sodium chloride aqueous solution (1:1, v/v) with the stop-and-go flow technique, and the LC column packed with macroporous resin has been employed as the second dimension for on-line absorption, desalination and desorption of the targeting effluents purified from the first CCC dimension. As a result, two novel flavonoids, 6,8-dihydroxy-flavone-7-O-β-D-glucuronide (15.3 mg) and 6-methoxy-8-hydroxy-flavone-7-O-β-D-glucuronide (13.7 mg), have been isolated from 126.8 mg of crude sample pre-enriched by macroporous resin column. Their structures have been identified by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-TOF-MS) and one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (1D and 2D NMR). Further antioxidant assays showed that the first component possess a strong antioxidant activity. All the results demonstrated that the stop-and-go 2D CCC × LC method is very efficient for the separation of flavonoids of alfalfa and it can also be applied to isolate other comprehensive multi-component natural products.     

Screening and mechanism study of components targeting DNA from the Chinese herb Lonicera japonica by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry and fluorescence spectroscopy

A method which involves combination of centrifugal ultrafiltration sampling with high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detection and mass spectrometry (HPLC-DAD-MS) analysis was established for screening bioactive compounds binding to calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (ct-DNA) from the extracts of Lonicera japonica. Four compounds were screened out and identified as rutin, quercetin-3-O-glucoside, luteolin-7-O-glucoside and lonicerin, based on the comparison of retention time, UV spectra and MS data with those of standards. The DNA-binding capabilities of the latter three flavonoids were found for the first time. The binding mechanisms of rutin, quercetin-3-O-glucoside and luteolin-7-O-glucoside with ct-DNA at the molecular level were explored using acridine orange (AO) as a fluorescence probe. Groove binding is the most appropriate binding mode of these three flavonoids to DNA, according to ultraviolet absorption and fluorescence spectra, as well as melting temperature (T(m)) curves and viscosity measurements. The binding constants of rutin, quercetin-3-O-glucoside and luteolin-7-O-glucoside with DNA-AO complex were 3.81 x 10(3), 3.37 x 10(3) and 5.50 x 10(3) L/mol, respectively.

Antifungal activity of flavonoids isolated from mango (Mangifera indica L.) leaves

Five flavonoids, namely (-)-epicatechin-3-O-β-glucopyranoside (1), 5-hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxylphenyl)pyrano[3,2-g]chromene-4(8H)-one (2), 6-(p-hydroxybenzyl)taxifolin-7-O-β-D-glucoside (tricuspid) (3), quercetin-3-O-α-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-D-glucopyranoside (4) and (-)-epicatechin(2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromene-3,5,7-triol (5), were isolated from the leaves of mango (Mangifera indica L.). Antifungal activity of these compounds was evaluated against five fungal species, namely Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissler, Aspergillus fumigatus Fresenius, Aspergillus niger van Tieghem, Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid. and Penicillium citrii. Six concentrations, namely 100, 300, 500, 700, 900 and 1000 ppm of each of the five flavonoids were employed by means of the poisoned medium technique. All concentrations of the five test flavonoids significantly suppressed fungal growth. However, the specificity of different test compounds was evident against different fungal species. In general, antifungal activity of the flavonoids was gradually increased by increasing their concentrations. The highest concentration (of 1000 ppm) of compounds 1-5 reduced the growth of different target fungal species by 63-97%, 56-96%, 76-99%, 76-98% and 82-96%, respectively.     

Simultaneous determination of ten flavonoids from Viscum coloratum grown on different host species and different sources by LC-MS

A high-performance liquid chromatographic-mass spectrometric method was developed for the simultaneous determination of 10 flavonoids in Viscum coloratum obtained from different host species and different sources. Viscum coloratum was extracted with 50% methanol. The extracts were separated on a C(18) column with a gradient of 0.1% (v/v) formic acid and methanol. The flavonoids in the extracts were detected by negative electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in selective ion monitoring mode. The calibration curves showed good linearity (r>0.998) within the test ranges (homoeriodictyol: 0.149-8.940 μg/ml, homoeriodictyol-7-O-β-D-glycoside: 0.230-13.80 μg/ml, homoeriodictyol-7-O-β-D-apiose (1→2)-β-D-glycoside: 5.000-300.0 μg/ml, homoeriodictyol-7-O-β-D-apiose (1→5)-β-D-apiose (1→2)-β-D-glycoside: 0.835-125.3 μg/ml, rhamnazin-3-O-β-D-glucoside: 0.064-3.840 μg/ml, rhamnazin-3-O-β-D-(6″-β-hydroxy-β-methyglutaryl)-glucoside: 1.435-86.10 μg/ml, isorhamnetin-3-O-β-D-glucoside: 0.930-55.80 μg/ml, 5-hydroxy-3,7,3'-trimethoxyflavone-4'-O-β-D-glucoside: 0.067-4.020 μg/ml, 5,7,4'-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxyflavone: 0.270-16.20 μg/ml, pachypodol: 0.110-6.600 μg/ml). The limits of quantification were between 0.006-0.720 μg/ml. The assay was reproducible and the overall intra- and inter-day variations were less than 4.6%. The recoveries varied from 93.4 to 103.9% at three different concentration levels. The validation method was used to determine the contents of 10 flavonoids in Viscum coloratum. A one-way analysis of variance was applied to evaluate Viscum coloratum-host-source interactions. Compared with the host species, the sample source had a significant impact on the sample content.
