RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To isolate the phenolic amides from the dried bulbs of Allium chinense and investigate their myocardium protective activities.@*METHODS@#The chemical constituents were isolated and purified by combining with silica gel column, Sephadex LH-20 column, HPLC and other chromatography techniques. Their structures were elucidated by NMR techniques and mass spectrometry. The isolated compounds were evaluated to determine their protective effect for myocardium cells in vitro.@*RESULTS@#Two new phenolic amides, namely, alichinemide I ( 1) and alichinemide II ( 2), and six konwn amides were isolated from the dried bulbs of A. chinense. The structures of compounds 3- 8 were identified as 3-indolcarbaldehyde ( 3), 1-(2-aminophenyl)urea ( 4), 2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole-3-carboxylic acid ( 5), N-trans-feruloyltyramine ( 6), N-trans-p-coumaroyltyramine ( 7), and N-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl) acetamide ( 8). Compound 3 (50 μmol/L) showed significant inhibitory effect on the damage of H9c2 myocardial cells induced by H2O2in vitro.@*CONCLUSION@#Compounds 1 and 2 were new phenolic amides. Compound 3 could be one of the potential myocardium protective constituents of A. chinense.
RESUMEN
This experiment was performed to analyze and identify the chemical constituents of Lycii Cortex by UPLC-LTQ-OrbitrapMS. The analysis was performed on a Waters Xbridge Shield RP18( 4. 6 mm×250 mm,5 μm) column with the mobile phase of 0. 1%formic acid( A)-acetonitrile( B) under gradient conditions at a flow rate of 1. 0 m L·min-1 and the temperature maintained at 35 ℃ ．Electrospray ionization ion trap time-off light multistage mass spectrometry was applied for qualitative analysis under positive and negative ion modes. The results indicated that 55 compounds consisted of 39 phenolic amides,6 organic acids,3 cyclic peptides,2 coumarins and 5 others. In conclusion,an UPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap-MS method was established to qualitative analysis of Lycii Cortex in this study,and the fragmentation rules of phenolic amides were summarized,which provides a good foundation for further study of Lycii Cortex.
