A novel, rapid, and simple capillary electrophoresis (CE) method has been developed for the determination of antimalarial artemisinin by on-line treatment with alkaline. By on-line reaction, artemisinin was automatically and reproducibly converted to the strongly UV-absorbing compound, Q292, by treating it with 0.20 mol/L NaOH solution for 3 min at 40 degrees C. Analysis was carried out in less than 12 min after conversion of artemisinin in a flow injection (FI) system that was coupled to CE equipment via a split-flow interface cell, and a sampling frequency of 8 h(-1) is achievable. The on-line conversion method has been applied to the determination of artemisinin in the traditional Chinese herbal drug Artemisia annua L., and the results are satisfactory.
已开发出一种新颖、快速且简单的毛细管电泳(CE)方法,用于通过碱性在线处理来测定抗疟药物青蒿素。通过在线反应,在40℃下用0.20 mol/L NaOH溶液处理青蒿素3分钟,青蒿素可自动且可重复地转化为强紫外吸收化合物Q292。在通过分流接口池与CE设备相连的流动注射(FI)系统中,青蒿素转化后不到12分钟即可进行分析,采样频率可达8 h⁻¹。该在线转化方法已应用于中药青蒿中青蒿素的测定,结果令人满意。
