From m/z to elemental formula to structure
• Accurate mass spectrometers
• Fast assignment of elemental formulas
• Isomers
– Compounds sharing the same EF
122 hits for C27H30O16
Dictionary of natural compoundshttp://dnp.chemnetbase.comNaringenin-6-C-glucoside Naringenin-4’-O-glucoside Naringenin-7-O-glucoside
Aim
• Develop robust methods for fast and unambiguous identification of metabolites using state-of-the-art technologies
• Two analytical methods:
– Accurate mass MSn
– HPLC-MS-SPE-NMR
1. Accurate mass MSn
• NanoMate (Advion)
– Small sample volumes
– Chip based nano-electrospray
• Ion trap (Thermo)
– Stable fragmentation
– MSn possibilities
• Orbitrap (FT-MS, Thermo)
– Wide dynamic range, high mass resolution
– Accurate mass values (within 2 ppm)

Flavonoids chosen as example
• 121 structurally related compounds tested
– Share same backbone
– Different number and sites of modification
• -OH, -CH3, -C6H10O5, etc
– Many isomeric forms:
• Positional
• Stereo
hydroxygenkwanin hispidulin chrysoeriol
Unique fragmentation patterns for positional isomers
• MS3: quercetin fragment ion– major difference in fragment ratios
• 3 and 4’: m/z 179 is highest• 7: m/z 151 is highest
– due to charge localization differences

Conclusions
• The accurate MSn spectral tree method
– robust and reproducible method
– unique fragmentation patterns
– more structural information than MS/MS
– Worked well for flavonoids, will be tested on more plant and human metabolites
• NMR needed for final structural elucidation
– LC-MS-SPE to trap compounds in crude extract
• MSn-NMR combination: powerful approach
