A method which involves the combination of pH-zone-refining counter-current chromatography (pH-zone-refining CCC) and conventional high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was established for the preparative separation of alkaloids from the crude extracts of Stephania kwangsiensis. pH-zone-refining CCC was first performed with the solvent system composed of n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (3:7:1:9, v/v), where triethylamine (10 mM) was added to the upper organic stationary phase as a retainer and hydrochloric acid (5 mM) to the aqueous mobile phase as an eluter. From 2.0 g of crude extract, 370 mg of sinoacutine and 600 mg of a mixture of three other alkaloids were obtained. Then, the mixture was further separated by conventional HSCCC with the solvent system composed of n-hexane-ethyl acetate-methanol-water (7:3:6:4, v/v), yielding 42 mg of (-)-crebanine, 50 mg of (-)-stephanine and 30 mg of l-romerine from 150 mg mixture of three other alkaloids, respectively. The purities of the four compounds were all over 98% as determined by HPLC, and the chemical structures of the four compounds were confirmed by positive ESI-MS and (1)H NMR data. Results of the present study successfully indicated that this method was efficient for the preparative separation of alkaloids from natural plants.
