摘要
To establish a rapid and effective method for analysis and identification of the alkaloids from Ranunculus japoni- cus Thunb by ultra-performance liquid chromatogaraphy with quadruple-time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC/Q-TOF- MS） and discuss their fragmentation regularity, the UPLC/Q-TOF-MS was used to identify the alkaloids from Ranunculus japonicus Thunb by their MS data, tandem characteristic fragment ions and standards. In the end, 12 alkaloids were identi- fied from Ranunculus japonicus for the first time, and their fragmentation regularity was discussed. Thus, a rapid and effec- tive analysis and identification method for the alkaloids from Ranunculus japonicus by UPLC/Q-TOF-MS is established.
