Characterization and mass spectral analysis of some grayanotoxin derivatives

Abstract: The mass spectra of grayanotoxin III and some of its mono-, di, and tri-ester derivatives are discussed. Some of the physiological responses of this compound class are also presented. The extraction of this material from a natural source is discussed as well as the schemes for ester derivatization and spectral characterization of all compounds studied. High resolution mass spectral analysis and comparison of the mass spectra of similar compounds were used to define possible fragmentation mechanisms.

“…Subsequent LC-MS analysis of rumen content confirmed the presence of GTX I at 2.4 µg/g but found no GTX III (Figure 8). While R. maximum has been reported to contain both GTX I and GTX III at >50 µg/g (16), LC-MS analysis of the one sample of R. maximum found 74 µg/g GTX I, 1 µg/g GTX II, and 4 µg/g GTX III. One sample of R. percii contained no GTX I, 4 µg/g GTX II, and 140 µg/g GTX III.…”

“…There was one hydroxyl group at C‐3 but none at C‐2, which was characteristic of this group. Scheme showed a possible fragmentation pathway in which neutral loss and McLafferty rearrangement played an important role (Jawad et al ., ). As reported in the literature, the fragment ion peak of m/z 257.1547 could be interpreted as follows: grayanotoxin III ( 3 ) lost three molecules of water at first and then the C–C bond between C‐13 and C‐16 was fractured, after which a hydrogen atom was transferred from C‐14 to the carbonyl of C‐16 and McLafferty rearrangement occurred with the removal of a molecule of acetone.…”

“…Grayanotoxins have been analyzed in plant material and honey by direct spectrometric methods (Terai, 1983), by gas chromatography (GC) as the trimethylsilane (TMS) derivative (Terai et al, 1994), and by TLC (Terai, 1984;Kinghorn et al, 1978;Sutlupinar et al, 1993;Kerkvliet, 1981). Rhododendron maximum has been reported to contain >50 µg/g of both grayanotoxins I and III (Jawad et al, 1977).…”
