Structural characterisation of flavonoids and flavonoid‐O‐glycosides extracted from Genista tenera by fast‐atom bombardment tandem mass spectrometry
2001
Genista tenera is a plant native to the Madeira Island (Portugal). From the ethanol extract of its powdered aerial parts, two flavones, three isoflavones and one 7-O-glucosyl isoflavone were isolated. A mass spectrometric study of these compounds was performed using liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry (LSIMS) in combination with high-energy collision-induced dissociation (CID) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Characteristic fragmentation patterns were observed in all the investigated compounds; the loss of small neutral species from the protonated molecules was useful for identifying the presence of specific functional groups in the A- and B-rings. In order to help to establish the proposed structures, NMR and UV studies were also performed. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
