Abstract: To establishes a method for the determination of polyphenols in Osmanthus fragrans by extractive electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (EESI-MS), Osmanthus fragrans var. semperflorens was used as experimental material, the main polyphenolic compounds in the methanol extracts were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and EESI-MS. The results showed that the total phenols and total flavonoids in the methanol extracts of O. fragrans var. semperflorens were 133.38±0.12 mg/g. md and 72.49±0.09 mg/g. md, respectively. Fifteen kinds of polyphenolic compounds were detected in the methanol extracts of the O. fragrans var. semperflorens by HPLC. The contents of myricetin, morin, rutin, naringenin and (+)-catechin were abundant. EESI-MS detection in positive ion mode directly from the O. fragrans var. semperflorens methanol extract detected p-protocatechuic acid, coumaric acid, caffeic acid, epicatechin; negative ion mode to detected cinnamic acid, morin and myricetin. The EESI-MS method in this study has the advantages of less sample consumption, no complex separation, pretreatment and rapid analysis. It can be used for the analysis of polyphenols in food.
