高效液相色谱-质谱分析指导下制备黄芩中系列黄酮成分对照品

在高效液相色谱-质谱分析指导下,针对性地分离制备了黄芩药材中系列黄酮成分对照品。首先对黄芩药材乙醇提取物进行液相色谱-质谱分析,获得各色谱峰的保留时间、紫外光谱和质谱特征。经波谱数据解析结合文献对比,鉴定了黄芩药材中的19种黄酮类成分。然后根据液相色谱-质谱分析结果和文献,设计了目标成分对照品的制备流程,采用低压制备柱色谱法依次制备了黄芩苷、汉黄芩苷、黄芩素、汉黄芩素和千层纸素A共5种黄酮类成分的对照品。结果表明这5种黄酮类成分对照品的纯度均大于98%。该方法可用于针对性地快速分离制备中药中的化学成分。

Preparation of flavonoid reference standards from Scutellariae Radix under the guidance of high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis

Flavonoid reference standards were targeted-prepared from Scutellariae Radix under the guidance of high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) analysis. With HPLC-MS analysis of Scutellariae Radix, 19 flavonoid components were identified by analyzing and comparing their retention times, ultraviolet spectra, and mass spectrometry data with literature. The separation and purification protocols of all targeted flavonoid reference standards were optimally designed according to the results of HPLC-MS analysis and related literature. The ethanol extract of Scutellariae Radix was suspended in water and extracted with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol successively. The ethyl acetate extract and n-butanol extract were separately subjected to primary separation by low pressure reverse phase preparative chromatography. Then the fractions containing targeted compounds were further purified by low pressure reverse and normal phases preparative chromatography. Finally, baicalin and wogonoside reference standards were obtained from n-butanol extract; baicaelin, wogonin, and oroxylin A reference standards were obtained from ethyl acetate extract. The structures of the 5 reference standards were identified by mass spectrometry (MS) and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy. The HPLC analytical results showed that the purities of the 5 reference standards were all above 98%. It is demonstrated that the rapid targeted-preparation method under the guidance of the HPLC-MS analysis is applicable for the isolation and preparation of chemical components in traditional Chinese medicines.
