Dereplication of oligostilbenes in dipterocarpaceae (#177)
A rapid and systematic tandem LC-MS protocol is
utilized to identify oligostilbenes in two Shorea species (Shorea leprosula and
Shorea macrophylla; family Dipterocarpaceae). Analyses were performed by a
newly developed dereplication system on a liquid chromatography-ion trap-mass
spectrometry (LC-IT-MS) with electrospray ionization (ESI) interface. The
combination of effective separation by an HPLC and multiple fragmentation steps
for specific masses in MS enable fast and sensitive analysis of various degrees
of oligostilbenes condensation.
