Analysis of scopolamine and its eighteen metabolites in rat urine by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

A rapid and sensitive method is described for the determination of scopolamine and its metabolites in rat urine by combining liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). Various extraction techniques (free fraction, acid hydrolyses and enzyme hydrolyses) and their comparison were carried out for investigation of the metabolism of scopolamine. After extraction procedure, the pretreated samples were injected into a reversed-phase C18 column with mobile phase of methanol/ ammonium acetate (2 mM, adjusted to pH 3.5 with formic acid) (70:30, v/v) and detected by an on-line MS/MS system. Identification and structural elucidation of the metabolites were performed by comparing their changes in molecular masses (ΔM), retention-times and full scan MSⁿ spectra with those of the parent drug. The results revealed that at least 18 metabolites (norscopine, scopine, tropic acid, aponorscopolamine, aposcopolamine, norscopolamine, hydroxyscopolamine, hydroxyscopolamine N-oxide, p-hydroxy-m-methoxyscopolamine, trihydroxyscopolamine, dihydroxy-methoxyscopolamine, hydroxyl-dimethoxyscopolamine, glucuronide conjugates and sulfate conjugates of norscopolamine, hydroxyscopolamine and the parent drug) and the parent drug existed in urine after ingesting 55 mg/kg scopolamine to healthy rats. Hydroxyscopolamine, p-hydroxy-m-methoxyscopolamine and the parent drug were detected in rat urine for up 106 h after ingestion of scopolamine.     

Simultaneous determination of two active ingredients in Flos daturae by capillary electrophoresis with electrochemiluminescence detection

The coupling of Ru(bpy)₃²⁺ based electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection with capillary electrophoresis (CE) was developed for the simultaneous determination of the two major active ingredients (atropine and scopolamine) in Flos daturae. Parameters related to the separation and detection were discussed and optimized. It was proved that 20 mM phosphate buffer at pH 8.48 could achieve the most favorable resolution, and the high sensitivity of detection was obtained by maintaining the detection potential at 1.2 V. Under the optimized conditions: ECL detection at 1.2 V, 20 mM phosphate buffer at pH 8.48, 5 mM Ru(bpy)₃²⁺ and 50 mM phosphate buffer at pH 7.48 in the detection reservoir, detection limits of 5 × 10⁻⁸ mol/l for atropine and 1 × 10⁻⁶ mol/l for scopolamine were obtained. Relative standard derivations of the ECL intensity and the migration time were 5.16 and 0.71% for atropine and 5.07 and 1.22% for scopolamine, respectively. Developed method was successfully applied to determine the amounts of both alkaloids in Flos daturae. A baseline separation for atropine and scopolamine was achieved within 11 min.     

Simultaneous determination of atropine,anisodamine, and scopolamine in plant extract by nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis coupled with electrochemiluminescence and electrochemistry dual detection

A rapid and simple method was demonstrated for the analysis of atropine, anisodamine, and scopolamine by nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) coupled with electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and electrochemistry (EC) dual detection. The mixture of acetonitrile (ACN) and 2-propanol containing 1 M acetic acid (HAc), 20 mM sodium acetate (NaAc), and 2.5 mM tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP) was used as the electrophoretic buffer. Although a short capillary of 18 cm was used, the decoupler was not needed and the separation efficiency was good. The linear ranges of atropine, anisodamine, and scopolamine were 0.5–50, 5–2000, and 50–2000 μM, respectively. For six replicate measurements of 100 μM scopolamine, 15 μM atropine, and 200 μM anisodamine, the RSDs of ECL intensity, EC current, and migration time were less than 3.6%, 4.5%, and 0.3%, respectively. In addition, because the organic buffer was used, the working electrode (Pt) was not easily fouled and did not need reactivation. The method was also applied for the determination of these three alkaloids in Flos daturae extract.     

Simultaneous Electrochemiluminescence Detection of Anisodamine,Atropine, and Scopolamine in Flos daturae by Capillary Electrophoresis Using β‐Cyclodextrin as Additive

This work developed a simple and sensitive method for simultaneous determination of three effective ingredients, atropine, scopolamine and anisodamine, in Flos daturae based on capillary electrophoresis coupled with electrochemiluminescence detection. β‐Cyclodextrin was used as an additive to the running buffer for obtaining the absolute separation. The proposed method displayed the linear ranges from 0.2 to 100, 0.2 to 100 and 20 to 200 μM for anisodamine, atropine and scopolamine with correlation coefficients more than 0.99, respectively. This method showed the relative standard deviations less than 4% and 6% for detection of migration time and peak height, respectively, and was suitable for the determination of these tropane alkaloids in plants and valuable in clinical and biochemical laboratories for quality control.

Preparative separation of atropine and scopolamine from Daturae metelis Flos using pH-zone-refining counter-current chromatography with counter-rotation and dual-mode elution procedure

To isolate atropine and scopolamine from Daturae metelis Flos, three different elution modes have been applied in pH-zone-refining counter-current chromatography. These separations were performed with a two-phase solvent system composed of ethyl acetate/n-butanol/water (4:1:5 v/v) with 0.50% triethylamine in the organic phase and 0.15% hydrochloric acid in the aqueous phase. As a result, the best separation was obtained by counter-rotation and dual-mode elution procedure. In this new separation mode, the mobile phase and stationary phase were exchanged when the rotation direction was reversed. The two purified alkaloids (purity over 98% as determined by HPLC) were identified by ESI-MS, (1)H-NMR and (13)C-NMR.     

Interaction of Scopolamine and Cholesterol with Sphingomyelin Bilayers by FT-Raman Spectroscopy

The interaction of scopolamine and cholesterol with sphingomyelin bilayers has been investigated by FT-Raman spectroscopy in head-group region (600-1000 cm^-1), the C-C stretching (1000-1200 cm^-1), CH₂ deformation (1400-1500 cm^-1) and the C-H stretching (2800-3000 cm^-1) mode regions. The results indicate that scopolamine and cholesterol do not change the conformation of O-C-C-N⁺ backbone in the choline group of sphingomyelin bilayers, the polar headgroup is still extending parallel to the bilayer surface and 0-C-C-N⁺ group is still in its gauche conformer. Scopolamine and cholesterol lower the order of the interface, the interchain, CH₂ crystal lattices and the lateral chain-chain packing, and increase their fluidity.     

Scopolamine and atropineN-methyl diastereomer stability.Ab initio calculations onO-formylscopine andO-formyltropine model compounds

Ab initio geometry optimizations at the RHF-21G basis set level were calculated forequatorial andaxial N-methyl diastereomers ofO-formyltropine andO-formylscopine esters and other model compounds. These optimized geometries were then utilized as input for single-point energy calculations using the higher level RHF/6-31G^* basis set to afford a more precise estimation of the total energies and atomic charges. Ethano bridge pinching of theN-protonated tropanyl piperidine moiety pushes the smalleraxial N-proton closer toward the neighboring twoaxial C-H bonds compared with the analogous case for a bulkyaxial N-methyl. Increasedcis 1,3-diaxial interactions in theaxial N-methyl diastereomer destabilize this epimer in favor of theequatorial N-methyl counterpart [e.g., 2.121 kcal/mol lower energy for theequatorial N-methylO-formyltropineN-protonated diastereomer (12) than for theaxial epimer (13)]. Lower pyramidality at nitrogen in the free base maintains the relative stability of theequatorial N-methyl free base diastereomer (14) (1.120 kcal/mol more stable than theaxial free base15). A nonprotonated carbon atom at the apex of a three-membered ring fused to the 6,7-positions of theO-formyltropine skeleton results in severe transannular nonbonding steric interactions involving the neighboringequatorial N-methyl group inN-protonated16 (3.335 kcal/mol less stable than theaxial N-methyl epimer17, where these transannular interactions are reduced due to the smallerequatorial N-H proton). Oxygen atom occupation of the apex of a similar fused three-membered ring retains the same severe transannular nonbonding steric interactions involving the neighboringequatorial N-methyl group inN-protonated18. These transannular interactions now become electrostatically attractive in theN-protonatedaxial N-methyl epimer19 (2.031 kcal/mol more stable than theequatorial epimer). Reduced pyramidality at nitrogen in theO-formylscopine free base reduces the repulsive transannular interaction with the neighboringequatorial N-methyl group compared to that in theN-protonated form. Lowered pyramidality also reduces thecis-1,3-diaxial interactions in theaxial N-methyl epimer, but the nitrogen lone pair is pushed close to the transannular oxygen lone pair as a result (theequatorial N-methyl free base20 is 3.870 kcal/mol more stable than theaxial epimer21). Theseab initio-calculated models ofO-formyltropines andO-formylscopineN-methyl diastereomeric protonated cations and free bases provide stereochemical insight into the relative stabilities of solution-state atropine and scopolamineN-methyl species previously observed by NMR spectroscopic methods.
