Abstract
Five flavonoids with similar polarity were obtained from Caragana korshinskii Kom. by preparative high speed counter-current chromatography. Due to their similar polarity, it is difficult to select a suitable solvent system for one-step separation. Three fractions including one pure compound were only obtained with a relatively suitable solvent system of ethyl acetate: n-butanol:water (0.5% glacial acetic acid) (4:6:10, v:v:v). In order to improve the separation efficiency, recycling and heart cut modes were introduced. As a result, two flavonoids with separation factor value at 1.13 and the other two with separation factor value at 1.20 were successfully separated. Finally, five flavonoids with purity higher than 98% were obtained. Fortunately, a new compound named myricetin 3'-methyl ether 3-O-glucoside-7-O-rhamnoside was obtained. The results indicated that the recycling combined with heart-cut mode could be effective for the preparation of natural compounds with similar polarity.
