ABSTRACT

Objective Chiral recognition for the glimepiride and glimepiride-cis-isomer by applying three amino acid (D-Lysine,L-Glutamine and L-Tyrosine) as chiral probes based on electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was achieved.Methods glimepiride/glimepiride-cis-isomer solutions were mixed with three amino acid solutions.The complex was extracted by ESI-MS and then the fragmentation abundance was investigated applying collision induced dissociation (CID) by MS/MS,which is the basis of chiral recognition for glimepiride and glimepiride-cis-isomer.Results Chiral recognition effect was achieved with the recognition rate (R) 1.61,2.92 and 2.17 for D-Lysine,L-Glutamine and L-Tyrosine respectively.Conclusion 3 kinds ofchiral amino acids were used as probes to distinguish between stereoisomers,and rapid identification of glimepiride and glimepiride cis isomer by mass spectrometry come true for the first time.
