Abstract:
Objective: To establish a quantitative method for the simultaneous determination of arecaine,arecoline,norisoboldine and boldine in Xiangbin decoction by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS), and compare the variation of their contents between single and mixed decoctions. Method: The separation was carried on a Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH Shield RP18(2.1 mm×150 mm,1.7 μm)column, with 0.1%formic acid solution-acetonitrile as mobile phase for gradient elution. The flow rate was 0.2 mL·min-1, and the column temperature was 30℃. The quantitative MRM transitions of the four components were m/z 142.10/44.11 for arecaine,m/z 156.20/44.07 for arecoline,m/z 314.29/265.12 for norisoboldine and m/z 328.13/265.10 for boldine. The determination was performed in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode by mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization (ESI) source under positive mode. Result: The linear ranges of arecaine,arecoline,norisoboldine and boldine were 0.479 0-57.48,0.976 0-78.08,0.812 0-64.96, 0.091 2-18.24 μg·L-1,respectively. The average recoveries of the above compounds ranged from 93.73%to 104.34%, with RSD (n=6) of less than 5%. The contents of arecoline,arecoline,norbibeldine and boltinine in Xiangbin decoction were (90.07±1.26),(445.27±12.39),(742.35±38.39),(38.50±3.33) μg·g-1,which were significantly lower than the contents in Linderae Radix and Arecae Semen. Conclusion: The method is rapid,sensitive,accurate and reproducible,and suitable for the simultaneous determination of multiple components in Xiangbin decoction,so as to provide a basis for the quality control of Xiangbin decoction. The compatibility of Xiangbin decoction has a significant effect on the dissolution contents of arecaine,arecoline,norisoboldine and boldine.
