Determination of honokiol and magnolol by micro HPLC with electrochemical detection and its application to the distribution analysis in branches and leaves of Magnolia obovata.

A simple and sensitive method has been developed for determining honokiol and magnolol in fresh Magnolia obovata (M. obovata) by micro high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (microHPLC-ECD). Chromatography was performed using a Capcell Pak C-18 UG 120 microbore octadecylsilica (ODS) column, methanol-water-phosphoric acid (65 : 35 : 0.5, v/v/v), as a mobile phase and applied potential at +0.8 V vs. Ag/AgCl. Peak heights were found linearly related to the amounts of honokiol and magnolol injected from 0.67 pg to 2.0 ng (r>0.999). The detection limits (S/N=3) were 0.13 pg, respectively. Honokiol and magnolol of 0.27 ng were detected with relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.73 and 1.17% (n=5), respectively. Honokiol and magnolol in Magnolia Bark of the Japanese Pharmacopoeia were extracted with 70% methanol, diluted with a mobile phase, and injected into the microHPLC-ECD for determination. Recoveries of honokiol and magnolol in Magnolia Bark exceeded 98.7% with RSD, less than 0.93% (n=5). Determination of the distributions of honokiol and magnolol in bark, phloem, wood, leaf blades, and petioles of fresh M. obovata were made using weight samples of 40-238 mg. This method is useful to determine honokiol and magnolol in M. obovata, which is a candidate for crude magnolia bark for traditional Japanese herbal medicines.
