Abstract
A nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) method with direct on-column UV detection has been developed for the separation of the pharmaceutically important anthraquinones from the total grass of Xanthophytum attopvensis pierre extract. The separation of three main anthraquinones (1-hydroxy-2-methoxy-3-hydroxymethyl-9, 10-anthraquinone-1- O-β- d-glucoside ( 1), rubiadin- 1-methylether ( 2) and 1-methoxy-2-formyl-3-hydroxy-9, 10-anthraquinone ( 3)) was optimized with respect to concentration of sodium cholate (SC) and acetic acid, addition of acetonitrile (ACN), and applied voltage. Baseline separation was obtained for the three analytes within 5 min using a running buffer containing 50 mM sodium cholate (SC), 1.0% acetic acid and 40% ACN in methanol. The method of NACE for the separation and determination of bioactive ingredient in traditional Chinese medicines was discussed.
