Abstract

Dracocephalum palmatum S. and Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. contain a large number of target analytes, which are biologically active compounds. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in combination with an ion trap (tandem mass spectrometry) was used to identify target analytes in extracts of D. palmatum S. and D. ruyschiana L. originating from Yakutia. The results of initial studies revealed the presence of 114 compounds, of which 92 were identified for the first time in the genus Dracocephalum. New identified metabolites belonged to 17 classes, including 16 phenolic acids and their conjugates, 18 flavones, 5 flavonols, 2 flavan-3-ols, 1 flavanone, 2 stilbenes, 10 anthocyanins, 1 condensed tannin, 2 lignans, 6 carotenoids, 3 oxylipins, 2 amino acids, 3 sceletium alkaloids, 3 carboxylic acids, 8 fatty acids, 1 sterol, and 3 terpenes, along with 6 miscellaneous compounds. It was shown that extracts of D. palmatum are richer in the spectrum of polyphenolic compounds compared with extracts of D. ruyschiana, according to a study of the presence of these compounds in extracts, based on the results of mass spectrometric studies.

Highlights

  • The genus Dracocephalum L. is represented on the territory of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) by five species—Dracocephalum jacutense Peschkova, D. nutansL., D. palmatum Stephan, D. ruyschiana L., and D. stellerianum Hiltebr [1]

  • Extracts of D. palmatum S. and D. ruyschiana L. were analyzed by an High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)–MS/MS

  • A total of 114 compounds were identified in extracts of D. palmatum and D. ruyschiana, and 92 compounds were identified for the first time in the genus Dracocephalum

Summary

Introduction

The genus Dracocephalum L. (family Lamiaceae) is represented on the territory of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) by five species—Dracocephalum jacutense Peschkova, D. nutansL., D. palmatum Stephan, D. ruyschiana L., and D. stellerianum Hiltebr [1]. (family Lamiaceae) is represented on the territory of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) by five species—Dracocephalum jacutense Peschkova, D. nutans. L., D. palmatum Stephan, D. ruyschiana L., and D. stellerianum Hiltebr [1]. These are perennial herbaceous plants, differing in both origin and habitat and belonging to the divisions of vegetation cover. The ranges of Dracocephalum are unequal, from extremely small A total of 23 compounds (phenylpropanoids, coumarins, flavonoids, and triterpenes) were isolated from a crude alcoholic extract of the aerial parts of Dracocephalum palmatum in studies by Olennikov et al (2013) [4]. A research by Kim et al (2020) aimed to evaluate the tumor suppressive effect of D. palmatum extract in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
