Preparative Separation of Phenylethanoid and Secoiridoid Glycosides from Ligustri Lucidi Fructus by High-Speed Counter-Current Chromatography Coupled with Ultrahigh Pressure Extraction.

ABSTRACT: Three phenylethanoid glycosides, echinacoside (1), salidroside (3), and acteoside (6), and three secoiridoid glycosides, isonuezhenide (2), nuezhenoside G13 (4), and specnuezhenide (5), have been extracted and separated by a combined method of ultrahigh pressure extraction (UPE) and high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) from Ligustri Lucidi Fructus. For the UPE, the optimal extraction was developed with conditions including solvent of 90% ethanol, sample to solvent ratio of 1:20 g/mL, pressure of 200 MPa, and time of 2 min, which rendered the yields of compounds 4 and 5 were 15.0 and 78.0 mg/g, respectively. For the HSCCC separation, the strategy of changing flow rates between 1.0 and 2.0 mL/min allowed the acquisition for 2.7 mg of compound 1, 4.5 mg of compound 2, 6.8 mg of compound 3, 5.9 mg of compound 4, 11.2 mg of compound 5, and 2.2 mg of compound 6 in one separation run under the solvent system of ethyl acetate:n-butanol:water (2:1:3, v/v) from 200 mg of the UPE extract. The structures of these phenylethanoid and secoiridoid glycosides were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods.
