Simultaneous Separation and Purification of Five Polymethoxylated Flavones from "Dahongpao" Tangerine (Citrus tangerina Tanaka) Using Macroporous Adsorptive Resins Combined with Prep-HPLC.

ABSTRACT: In this study, a preparative separation method was established to simultaneously isolate the polymethoxylated flavones (PMFs) from the peel of "Dahongpao" tangerine using macroporous adsorptive resins (MARs) combined with prep-HPLC. The total PMFs were enriched using MARs to remove most sugars, water-soluble pigments, and flavanones, and the eluents obtained were analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) to determine the PMF composition. The separation and purification of PMFs were carried out by using a mass spectrometry-guided prep-HPLC with a gradient elution of acetonitrile-water (v/v), simultaneously. The purity of these PMFs was determined by UPLC, and their chemical structures were confirmed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS-MS), ult
