Integrative Approach Based on Leaf Spray Mass Spectrometry, HPLC-DAD-MS/MS, and NMR for Comprehensive Characterization of Isoquinoline-Derived Alkaloids in Leaves of Onychopetalum amazonicum R. E. Fr.

Onychopetalum is an Amazonian botanical genus close-related with Bocageopsis and Unonopsis, whose species are used in traditional medicine. Although these genera are widely investigated from the phytochemical viewpoint, the knowledge about Onychopetalum remains almost unexplored. In order to perform a comprehensive characterization of isoquinoline-derived alkaloids from Onychopetalum amazonicum, an integrative approach based on the alkaloid profile analysis by leaf spray mass spectrometry (LS-MS), followed by a robust dereplication through high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with di...
