Abstract
The cytochalasin class of fungal metabolites was analyzed by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESIβMS/MS) with the aim of developing a methodology for their rapid identification in microbial extracts. ESIβMS analyses of reference cytochalasins were performed and several product ions were produced in MS/MS experiments on parent ions that are structurally characteristic. A precursor ion search was performed to detect cytochalasins in an ethyl acetate extract of fungal strain RK97βF21. Three cytochalasins were detected and one of the components was identified as epoxycytochalasin H by comparing the tandem mass spectra of the product ions with those of reference compounds. This finding was further validated by LC/MS and LC/MS/MS experiments. Copyright Β© 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
