Introduction – Dehydrocavidine is a major component of Corydalis saxicola Bunting with sedative, analgesic, anticonvulsive and antibacterial activities. Conventional methods have disadvantages in extracting, separating and purifying dehydrocavidine from C. saxicola. Hence, an efficient method should be established. Objective – To develop a suitable preparative method in order to isolate dehydrocavidine from a complex C. saxicola extract by preparative HSCCC. Methodology – The methanol extract of C. saxicola was prepared by optimised microwave‐assisted extraction (MAE). The analytical HSCCC was used for the exploration of suitable solvent systems and the preparative HSCCC was used for larger scale separation and purification. Dehydrocavidine was analysed by high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and further identified by ESI‐MS and 1H NMR. Results – The optimised MAE experimental conditions were as follows: extraction temperature, 60°C; ratio of liquid to solid, 20; extraction time, 15 min; and microwave power, 700 W. In less than 4 h, 42.1 mg of dehydrocavidine (98.9% purity) was obtained from 900 mg crude extract in a one‐step separation, using a two‐phase solvent system composed of chloroform–methanol–0.3 m hydrochloric acid (4 : 0.5 : 2, v/v/v). Conclusion – Microwave‐assisted extraction coupled with high‐speed counter‐current chromatography is a powerful tool for extraction, separation and purification of dehydrocavidine from C. saxicola.

Introduction – Flavonoids, the primary constituents of the petals of Nelumbo nucifera, are known to have antioxidant properties and antibacterial bioactivities. However, efficient methods for the preparative isolation and purification of flavonoids from this plant are not currently available. Objective – To develop an efficient method for the preparative isolation and purification of flavonoids from the petals of N. nucifera by high‐speed counter‐current chromatography (HSCCC). Methodology – Following an initial clean‐up step on a polyamide column, HSCCC was utilised to separate and purify flavonoids. Purities and identities of the isolated compounds were established by HPLC‐PAD, ESI‐MS, 1H‐NMR and 13C‐NMR. Results – The separation was performed using a two‐phase solvent system composed of ethyl acetate–methanol–water–acetic acid (4 : 1 : 5 : 0.1, by volume), in which the upper phase was used as the stationary phase and the lower phase was used as the mobile phase at a flow‐rate of 1.0 mL/min in the head‐to‐tail elution mode. Ultimately, 5.0 mg syringetin‐3‐O‐β‐d‐glucoside, 6.5 mg quercetin‐3‐O‐β‐d‐glucoside, 12.8 mg isorhamnetin‐3‐O‐β‐d‐glucoside and 32.5 mg kaempferol‐3‐O‐β‐d‐glucoside were obtained from 125 mg crude sample. Conclusion – The combination of HSCCC with a polyamide column is an efficient method for the preparative separation and purification of flavonoids from the petals of N. nucifera.

Introduction – Phytochemical and biological studies carried out on Copaifera species showed that their oleoresins and isolated compounds have various biological activities. Objective – The aims of this work were (i) to analyse the Copaifera oleoresin by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, (ii) to isolate the diterpenic acids from this oleoresin by high‐speed countercurrent chromatography (HSCCC) and (iii) to determine the rhodamine 6G Pdr5p activity of these acids. Methodology – HSCCC was used for the preparative separation of the diterpenes. Spectroscopic methods were used to establish their identity. Results – The gas chromatogram of the oleoresin showed approximately 30 compounds. The two major ones, kaur‐16‐en‐18‐oic and polyalthic acids, were isolated in high purity. Kaur‐16‐en‐18‐oic acid exhibited the highest rodomine 6G Pdr5p activity among the tested compounds. Conclusion – HSCCC was shown to be a quick and effective tool in the isolation and purification of diterpenes from Copaifera oleoresin. This is the first report on the use of HSCCC for the fractionation of an oleoresin from Copaifera and the isolation of diterpenes therein. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Introduction – Centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC), as a continuous liquid–liquid partition chromatography with no solid support matrix, combined with evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD) was employed for systematic separation and purification of weak‐chromophoric saponins from a highly valued and important traditional Chinese herbal medicine, Panax notoginseng. Objective – To separate and isolate high‐purity saponins from extract of Panax notoginseng using CPC‐ELSD with a simple and low toxicity solvent system. Methodology – Samples were preparaed by extracting the root material with acetone, treated with n‐butanol and then freeze‐dried. CPC‐ELSD was applied in the separation and detection of notoginsenoside and ginsenosides from extract of Panax notoginseng using a solvent system composed of ethyl acetate–n‐butanol–water (1:1:2, v/v/v). The saponins were analysed and identified by their retention time with high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with ELSD, as well as electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (ESI‐MSn ) in the negative and positive ion modes with the authentic standards. Results – A total of 9.6 mg of notoginsenoside R1, 67.8 mg of ginsenoside Rg1, 2.3 mg of Re and 286.5 mg of Rb1 were purified from 487.2 mg of n‐butanol extract of P. notoginseng. The purities of obtained saponins in a single run were assessed to be over 98% by HPLC‐ELSD. Conclusion – CPC‐ELSD was proved to be a very fast and efficient tool for separation of high‐purity dammarane saponins. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Introduction – The rising trend to consume herbal products for the treatment and/or prevention of minor ailments together with their chemical and pharmacological complexity means there is an urgent need to develop new approaches to their quality and stability. Objectives – This work looks at the application of one‐dimensional diffusion‐edited 1H‐NMR spectroscopy (1D DOSY) and 1H‐NMR with suppression of the ethanol and water signals to the characterisation of quality and stability markers in multi‐component herbal medicines/food supplements. Material and Methods – The experiments were performed with commercial tinctures of Valeriana officinalis L. (valerian), expired and non‐expired, as well as its combination with Hummulus lupulus L. (hops), which is one of the most popular blends of relaxant herbs. These techniques did not require purification or evaporation of components for the qualitative analysis of the mixture, but only the addition of D2O and TSP. Results – The best diagnostic signals were found at δ 7 ppm (H‐11, valerenic acid), δ 4.2 ppm (H‐1, hydroxyvalerenic acid) and δ 1.5‐1.8 ppm (methyl groups in prenylated moieties, α‐acids/prenylated flavones). Conclusion – This work concludes on the potential value of 1D DOSY 1H‐NMR to provide additional assurance of quality in complex natural mixtures. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Preparative enantioseparation of four β‐substituted‐2‐phenylpropionic acids was performed by countercurrent chromatography with substituted β‐cyclodextrin as chiral selectors. The two‐phase solvent system was composed of n‐hexane‐ethyl acetate‐0.10 mol L‐1 of phosphate buffer solution at pH 2.67 containing 0.10 mol L‐1 of hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (HP‐β‐CD) or sulfobutylether‐β‐cyclodextrin (SBE‐β‐CD). The influence factors, including the type of substituted β‐cyclodextrin, composition of organic phase, concentration of chiral selector, pH value of the aqueous phase, and equilibrium temperature were optimized by enantioselective liquid–liquid extraction. Under the optimum separation conditions, 100 mg of 2‐phenylbutyric acid, 100 mg of tropic acid, and 50 mg of 2,3‐diphenylpropionic acid were successfully enantioseparated by high‐speed countercurrent chromatography, and the recovery of the (±)‐enantiomers was in the range of 90–91% for (±)‐2‐phenylbutyric acid, 91–92% for (±)‐tropic acid, 85–87% for (±)‐2,3‐diphenylpropionic acid with purity of over 97%, 96%, and 98%, respectively. The formation of 1:1 stoichiometric inclusion complex of β‐substituted‐2‐phenylpropionic acids with HP‐β‐CD was determined by UV spectrophotometry and the inclusion constants were calculated by a modified Benesi‐Hildebrand equation. The results showed that different enantioselectivities among different racemates were mainly caused by different enantiorecognition between each enantiomer and HP‐β‐CD, while it might be partially caused by different inclusion capacity between racemic solutes and HP‐β‐CD.

A preparative high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) method for isolation and purification of silychristin, silydianin and taxifolin in the co-products of the silybin refined process from the silymarin was successfully established by n-hexane–chloroform–methanol–water (0.5:11:10:6 (0.5 acetic acid), v/v/v/v) as the two-phase solvent system. 146 mg silydianin, 280 mg silychristin and 63 mg taxifolin from 1.463 g co-products sample in one separation were obtained with the purities of 95.1%, 99.3% and 98.2%, respectively, determined by HPLC. The structures of the compounds were identified by means of ESI-MS-MS, TOF-MS, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and 2DNMR-HMBC. Silychristin, silydianin and taxifolin had been separated as standards by HSCCC for the first time. A comparative study between HSCCC and RPLC for separation and isolation of taxifolin, silychristin and silydianin was investigated. The differences between the two preparative chromatographic methods were all discussed. The results demonstrated that HSCCC was a powerful separation tool and could contribute to identifying and quantifying plant ingredients.  相似文献

Introduction – Artemisinin, the primary active ingredient of the Chinese herb Artemisia annua L., is known to have considerable anti‐malaria properties. However, rapid, sensitive and selective method for the determination of artemisinin in it is not currently available. Objective – To develop and validate an efficient method for extraction and analysis of artemisinin from the plant samples of Artemisia annua L. by rapid resolution liquid chromatography triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (RRLC‐QQQ). Methodology – Following ultrasound‐assisted extraction (USE), RRLC‐QQQ was utilised to separate and determine artemisinin from the plant sample of Artemisia annua L. The LC separation, QQQ‐MS detection and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode were optimised, and the method validation concluding selectivity, calibration, accuracy and precision, and recovery were also evaluated. Results – LC separation was performed with an isocratic elution of 20% of methanol–water (10 mmol/L ammonium acetate, pH 4.0) on a C18 column. The triple quadrupole MS detection was carried out under MRM mode of precursor ion [M + H]+ → fragment ions m/z 265.1 and m/z 247.2. The limits of detection and quantitation of artemisinin were 0.20 and 0.75 ng/mL, respectively. The intra‐ and inter‐day precisions did not exceed 3.71%, and the deviation of the intra‐ and inter‐day mean values did not exceed ±7.50. The average recoveries for artemisinin ranged from 92.45 to 103.8% with an RSD from 2.47 to 2.79%. Conclusion – The developed RRLC‐QQQ assay is an efficient method for separation and determination of artemisinin from the plant samples of Artemisia annua L.

Introduction – Eisenia bicyclis (Kjellman) Setchell (Laminariaceae) is a common brown alga that inhabits around the coast of Korea, Japan and China. It contains fucoxanthin, a major carotenoid of brown algae which shows a variety of pharmaceutical functions. Objective – The aim of this investigation was the quantification and preparative isolation of fucoxanthin from fresh E. bicyclis using a new separation scheme, centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC). Methodology – The fucoxanthin fraction (Fuco fraction) was prepared by solvent partition method from the acetone extract of fresh E. bicyclis. Fuco fraction was used for CPC using a two‐phase solvent system of n‐hexane–ethyl acetate–ethanol–water (5:5:7:3, v/v/v/v). The flow rate of mobile phase was 2 mL/min with descending mode while rotating at 1000 rpm. The eluate was monitored at 410 nm. The content and structure of fucoxanthin in the CPC fraction were confirmed with HPLC, UV, APCI/MS and NMR spectra. Results – A preparative CPC yielded 20 mg of fucoxanthin (87% recovery from Fuco fraction) in a two‐step separation from 516 mg of Fuco fraction containing 4.59% fucoxanthin. The purity of the isolated fucoxanthin was about 81% in the first CPC step and over 98% in the second CPC step based on the calibration curve. The isolated fucoxanthin was identified as all‐trans‐fucoxanthin with APCI/MS (parent ion at m/z 641 [M + H ? H2O]+) and 1H, 13C and 2‐D NMR spectra. Conclusion – High‐purity fucoxanthin was successfully isolated from fresh E. bicyclis, suggesting further potential applications in the industrial use of this valuable carotenoid.

Two modes of high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) were successfully applied to the separation of alkaloids from crude extract of Nelumbo nucifera leaves. The conventional HSCCC separations were performed with a two-phase solvent system composed of tetrachloromethane–CHCl3–methanol–0.1 M HCl at a volume ratio of 1:3:3:2 (v/v/v/v), and 120 mg crude extract could be successfully separated. pH-Zone-refining CCC was performed with a two-phase solvent system composed of petroleum ether (60–90 °C)–ethyl acetate–methanol–water (5:5:2:8, v/v/v/v) where triethylamine (10 mM) was added to the upper organic stationary phase as a retainer and hydrochloric acid (5 mM) to the aqueous mobile phase as an eluent. From 4.0 g of the crude extract, 120 mg N-nornuciferine, 1020 mg nuciferine and 96 mg roemerine were obtained in a single run each with a purity of over 98% as determined by HPLC. The structures of the isolated compounds were identified by ESI-MS, 1H NMR and 13C NMR.  相似文献

N‐[1‐(4‐(4‐fluorophenyl)‐2,6‐dioxocyclohexylidene)ethyl] (Fde) protected amino acids have been prepared and applied in solid‐phase peptide synthesis monitored by gel‐phase 19F NMR spectroscopy. The Fde protective group could be cleaved with 2% hydrazine or 5% hydroxylamine solution in DMF as determined with gel‐phase 19F NMR spectroscopy. The dipeptide Ac‐L ‐Val‐L ‐Val‐NH2 12 was constructed using Fde‐L ‐Val‐OH and no noticeable racemization took place during the amino acid coupling with N,N′‐diisopropylcarbodiimide and 1‐hydroxy‐7‐azabenzotriazole or Fde deblocking. To extend the scope of Fde protection, the hydrophobic nonapeptide LLLLTVLTV from the signal sequence of mucin MUC1 was successfully prepared using Fde‐L ‐Leu‐OH at diagnostic positions.

Introduction – Blueberries (genus Vaccinium) have gained worldwide focus because of the high anthocyanin content of their fruits. In contrast, the leaves of blueberry have not attracted any attention, even though they contain large quantities of chlorogenic acid, a strong antioxidant compound. Objective – The aim of this investigation was the quantification and preparative isolation of chlorogenic acid (5‐caffeoylquinic acid, 5‐CQA) from blueberry leaves using a new separation scheme, centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC). Methodology – A water fraction containing a high concentration of 5‐CQA (14.5% of dry weight extract) was obtained by defatting a crude methanol extract from blueberry leaves. CPC was applied to isolate 5‐CQA from this water fraction using a two‐phase solvent system of ethyl acetate–ethanol–water at a volume ratio 4:1:5 (v/v/v). The flow‐rate of mobile phase was 2 mL/min with the ascending mode while rotating at 1200 rpm. The eluate was monitored at 330 nm. The structure of chlorogenic acid in the CPC fraction was confirmed with HPLC, UV, ESI/MS and NMR spectra. Results – The HPLC chromatogram showed that the fractions collected by CPC contained chlorogenic acid with 96% purity based on peak area percentage. The total amount of chlorogenic acid isolated from 0.5 g of a water fraction was 52.9 mg, corresponding to 10.6% of the water fraction. The isolated compound was identified successively as 5‐CQA with MS (parent ion at m/z 355.1 [M + H]+) and 1H NMR spectra [caffeoyl moiety in the down field (δ 6.0–8.0 ppm) and quinic acid moiety in the up field (δ 2.0–5.5 ppm)]. Conclusion – 5‐CQA was successfully isolated from blueberry leaves by the CPC method in a one‐step procedure, indicating a further potential use for blueberry leaves.

Cerium (IV) initiated “graft‐from” polymerization reactions were employed to convert M‐PVA magnetic particles into polyacrylic acid‐fimbriated magnetic cation exchange supports displaying ultra‐high binding capacity for basic target proteins. The modifications, which were performed at 25 mg and 2.5 g scales, delivered maximum binding capacities (Qmax) for hen egg white lysozyme in excess of 320 mg g?1, combined with sub‐micromolar dissociation constants (0.45–0.69 µm) and “tightness of binding” values greater than 49 L g?1. Two batches of polyacrylic acid‐fimbriated magnetic cation exchangers were combined to form a 5 g pooled batch exhibiting Qmax values for lysozyme, lactoferrin, and lactoperoxidase of 404, 585, and 685 mg g?1, respectively. These magnetic cation exchangers were subsequently employed together with a newly designed “rotor–stator” type HGMF rig, in five sequential cycles of recovery of lactoferrin and lactoperoxidase from 2 L batches of a crude sweet bovine whey feedstock. Lactoferrin purification performance was observed to remain relatively constant from one HGMF cycle to the next over the five operating cycles, with yields between 40% and 49% combined with purification and concentration factors of 37‐ to 46‐fold and 1.3‐ to 1.6‐fold, respectively. The far superior multi‐cycle HGMF performance seen here compared to that observed in our earlier studies can be directly attributed to the combined use of improved high capacity adsorbents and superior particle resuspension afforded by the new “rotor–stator” HGMS design.

A new series of N‐(pyrimidin‐2‐yl)benzenesulfonamide derivatives, 3a – 3i and 4a – 4i , was synthesized from pyrimidin‐2‐amines, 2a – 2i , with the aim to explore their effects on in vitro growth of Entamoeba histolytica. The chemical structures of the compounds were elucidated by elemental analysis, FT‐IR, 1H‐ and 13C‐NMR, and ESI mass‐spectral data. In vitro anti‐amoebic activity was evaluated against HM1 : IMSS strain of Entamoeba histolytica. The IC50 values were calculated by using the double dilution method. The results were compared with the IC50 value of the standard drug ‘metronidazole’. The selected compounds were tested for their cytotoxic activities by cell‐viability assay using H9C2 cardiac myoblasts cell line, and the results indicated that all the compounds displayed remarkable >80% viabilities to a concentration of 100 μg/ml.  相似文献

Introduction – Commercially available herbal mixture FE, a proprietary natural health product manufactured by Flora Manufacturing and Distributing Ltd (Flora), is a unique North American traditional herbal product. FE is a chemically complex mixture of eight herbs and has not been subjected to phytochemical analysis. Objective – To develop analytical methods to undertake detailed phytochemical analyses of FE, and its eight contributing herbs, including burdock (Arctium lappa L.), sheep sorrel (Rumex acetosella L.), Turkish rhubarb (Rheum palmatum L.), slippery elm Muhl. (Ulmus rubra), watercress (Nasturtium officinale R. Br.), red clover (Trifolium pratense L.), blessed thistle (Cnicus benedictus L.) and kelp (Laminaria digitata Lmx.). Methodology – The identification was undertaken by a combination of reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography–diode array detection–atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation–mass selective detection (RP‐HPLC‐DAD‐APCI‐MSD) analysis and phenolics metabolomic library matching. Results – New separation methods facilitated the identification of 43 markers in the individual herbs which constitute FE. Sixteen markers could be identified in FE originating from four contributing herbs including four caffeoyl quinic acids, three dicaffeoyl quinic acids and two caffeic acid derivatives from A. lappa, luteolin‐7‐O‐glucoside, luteolin, five apigenin glycosides and apigenin from R. acetocella and N. officinale and sissostrin from T. pretense. A validated method for quantitative determination of three markers is reported with good intraday, interday and interoperator repeatability using a reliable alcohol based extraction technique. Conclusion – FE and its contributing herbs predominantly contain phenolics. This methodology can be applied to further develop full‐scale validation of this product.

Introduction – Kudzu root (Radix puerariae) is a rich source of isoflavones that are effective in preventing osteoporosis, heart disease and symptoms associated with menopause. The major isoflavonoids in kudzu root extracts were reported as puerarin, daidzin and daidzein. Recently, an unknown isoflavonoid (compound 1) was detected from one‐year‐old kudzu root cultivated in Vietnam. Objective – To identify a novel compound 1 in kudzu root extract and determine the structure of the compound by ESI+ TOF MS‐MS, 1H‐, 13C‐NMR and enzymatic hydrolysis. Methodology – Samples were prepared by extraction of one‐year‐old kudzu root with 50% ethanol and the isoflavonoids were purified using recycling preparative HPLC. Unknown compound 1 was detected using UV‐light at 254 nm in TLC and HPLC analyses. The molecular weight of 1 was determined using a TOF mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ion source. The structure of 1 was determined from the 13C and 1H NMR spectra recorded at 100.40 and 400.0 MHz, respectively. Results – ESI+ TOF MS‐MS analysis shows that 1 is a puerarin diglycoside. The interglycosidic linkage of diglycoside determined by 1H‐, 13C‐NMR, and enzymatic hydrolysis suggests that 1 has a glucosyl residue linked to puerarin by an α‐1,6‐glycosidic bond. This compound is the first naturally‐occurring 8‐[α‐D ‐glucopyranosyl‐(1→6)‐β‐D ‐glucopyranosyl]daidzein in kudzu root. The concentration of glucosyl‐α‐1,6‐puerarin in kudzu root was 2.3 mg/g as determined by HPLC. Conclusion – The results indicate that puerarin diglycoside is one of the major isoflavonoids in kudzu root and has a significant impact on the preparation of highly water‐soluble glycosylated puerarin.

After a survey of the special role, which the amino acid proline plays in the chemistry of life, the cell‐penetrating properties of polycationic proline‐containing peptides are discussed, and the widely unknown discovery by the Giralt group (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002 , 124, 8876) is acknowledged, according to which fluorescein‐labeled tetradecaproline is slowly taken up by rat kidney cells (NRK‐49F). Here, we describe details of our previously mentioned (Chem. Biodiversity 2004 , 1, 1111) observation that a hexa‐β3‐Pro derivative penetrates fibroblast cells, and we present the results of an extensive investigation of oligo‐L ‐ and oligo‐D ‐α‐prolines, as well as of oligo‐β2h‐ and oligo‐β3h‐prolines without and with fluorescence labels ( 1 – 8 ; Fig. 1). Permeation through protein‐free phospholipid bilayers is detected with the nanoFAST biochip technology (Figs. 24). This methodology is applied for the first time for quantitative determination of translocation rates of cell‐penetrating peptides (CPPs) across lipid bilayers. Cell penetration is observed with mouse (3T3) and human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF; Figs. 5 and 68, resp.). The stabilities of oligoprolines in heparin‐stabilized human plasma increase with decreasing chain lengths (Figs. 911). Time‐ and solvent‐dependent CD spectra of most of the oligoprolines (Figs. 13 and 14) show changes that may be interpreted as arising from aggregation, and broadening of the NMR signals with time confirms this assumption.  相似文献

Comparison of the effectiveness of antioxidant activity of three thiol compounds, D ‐penicillamine, reduced L ‐glutathione, and 1,4‐dithioerythritol, expressed as a radical‐scavenging capacity based on the two independent methods, namely a decolorization 2,2′‐azinobis[3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic acid] assay and a rotational viscometry, is reported. Particular concern was focused on the testing of potential free‐radical scavenging effects of thiols against hyaluronan degradation, induced by hydroxyl radicals. A promising, solvent‐independent, antioxidative function of 1,4‐dithioerythritol, comparable to that of a standard compound, Trolox®, was confirmed by the 2,2′‐azinobis[3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic acid] assay. The new potential antioxidant 1,4‐dithioerythritol exhibited very good solubility in a variety of solvents (e.g., H2O, EtOH, and DMSO) and could be widely accepted and used as an effective antioxidant standard instead of a routinely used Trolox® on 2,2′‐azinobis[3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic acid] assay.  相似文献
