Abstract:8‐Prenylnaringenin (8PN) is a naturally occurring bioactive chiral prenylflavonoid found most commonly in the female flowers of hops (Humulus lupulus L.). A stereospecific method of analysis for 8PN in biological fluids is necessary to study the pharmacokinetic disposition of each enantiomer. A novel and simple liquid chromatographic‐electrospray ionization‐mass spectrometry (LC‐ESI‐MS) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of R‐ and S‐8PN in rat serum and urine. Carbamazepine was used as the internal standard (IS). Enantiomeric resolution of 8PN was achieved on a Chiralpak® AD‐RH column with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of 2‐propanol and 10 mM ammonium formate (pH 8.5) (40:60, v/v) and a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min. Detection was achieved using negative selective ion monitoring (SIM) of 8PN at m/z 339.15 for both enantiomers and positive SIM m/z at 237.15 for the IS. The calibration curves for urine were linear over a range of 0.01–75 µg/mL and 0.05–75 µg/mL for serum with a limit of quantification of 0.05 µg/mL in serum and 0.01 µg/mL in urine. The method was successfully validated showing that it was sensitive, reproducible, and accurate for enantiospecific quantification of 8PN in biological matrices. The assay was successfully applied to a preliminary study of 8PN enantiomers in rat. Chirality 26:419–426, 2014. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
