title: HPLC of flavanones and chalcones in different species and clones of Salix.
abstract: The SPE-HPLC method was developed to determine an isosalipurposide (5) and its derivative, 6"-O-p-coumaroyl ester (6) in the bark of eight taxa (I-VIII) belonging to three species of the genus Salix and originating from a natural habitat or cultivated for pharmaceutical purposes. The chalcones were separated by HPLC under gradient elution with the concentration of ACN increasing from 20% to 50% in 0.1% aqueous H3PO, (tG 15 min). The content of both compounds was determined by an external standardization with the use of isoliquiritigenin (7) as a reference substance - a commercially available chalcone, and also isosalipurposide (5) and its derivative, 6"-O-p-coumaroyl ester (6). The latter compound was isolated from the bark of Salix daphnoides (IV) by a CC and semi-preparative HPLC and its structure was elucidated by MS and NMR spectra. It was stated that 6"-O-p-coumaroylisosalipurposide (6), in addition to isosalipurposide (5), is a characteristic flavonoid for the S. daphnoides species. Moreover, the presence of these two chalcones was confirmed in the bark of S. acutifolia (I). Differences were observed in the results obtained from a quantitative analysis due to the type of reference substance used. The content of chalcones was varied and dependent on the species selected for analysis, namely from 22.01/21.08 mg/g in S. daphnoides clone 1095 (III) to 2.47/2.44 mg/g in S. daphnoides (II), collected from a natural habitat. Isosalipurposide (5) was determined in all the investigated species and clones of Salix, besides a number of naringenin derivatives. Separation of all flavonoids: flavanones - naringenin (1), naringenin (+)-5-O-glucoside (2), (-)-5-O-glucoside (3), 7-O-glucoside (4) and chalcones (5 and 6) was performed under gradient elution with the same solvents and changes in ACN concentration from 2% to 37% (tG 60 min). The total amount of flavanones ranged from 4.69 mg/g in S. purpurea clone 1132 (VII) to 41.93 mg/g in S. purpuea (VIII) from Herbapol Wrocław.
