[0003] High performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS / MS) is widely used in the fields of life analysis, environmental detection, food evaluation, etc. due to its high sensitivity and high selectivity. The selected reaction monitoring (SRM) or multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode of HPLC-MS / MS can selectively monitor target and semi-target analytes in samples. However, the presence of matrix effect greatly reduces the analysis performance of HPLC-MS / MS.

[0004] In recent years, stable isotope coding technology has attracted much attention, especially stable isotope coding derivatization technology. By means of light / heavy isotope coding derivatization reagents, isotope derivatives of a class of analytes with the same functional group can be obtained. The heavy isotope derivative is usually used as an internal standard for HPLC-MS / MS quantitative analysis. However, most of the current labeling reagents are expensive and have low commercialization degree. In addition, there are low signal of labeled products, poor accuracy and sensitivity, etc., so their widespread use is limited. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a new type of stable isotope labeling reagent. SUMMARY

[0170] Application of the compound represented by formula (I) as a stable isotope-labeled reagent of an amino compound:

[0171] The stable isotope-labeled reagent described in the first aspect of the present application has successfully labeled the amino group in propargylamine.

[0172] (1) In the above-mentioned Example 2, the carboxyl group in formula (I) was subjected to condensation reaction with the amino group in propargylamine to prepare formula (II), and the synthesis method is not described here.

[0174] Experimental Example 2

[0175] Application of the compound represented by formula (II) as a stable isotope-labeled reagent of an azide compound:

[0176] (1) 1 mL of AuNPs (13±2 nm) solution containing 0.1% SDS was added to the sample bottle, stirred at room temperature for 0.5 h, and then 100 μL of 1 mM N-terminal modified azidoacetic acid polypeptide solution was added. After 36 h of reaction, light and heavy stable isotope-labeled reagents (final concentration of 200 μM), i.e. 4-[d0] and 4-[d6], were added after centrifugation. The stable isotope labeling process was carried out by Click reaction, and an excess of dithiothreitol (DTT) was added after centrifugation to compete with the labeled polypeptide, and stirred overnight at room temperature. Finally, the supernatant was centrifuged and diluted for mass spectrometry detection. The amino acid sequence of the N-terminal modified azidoacetic acid polypeptide is azidoacetic acid-Lys-Glu-Ala-Met-Ile-Glu-Glu-Pro-Ala-mercaptoethylamine.

[0177] ​​(2) In the process of mass spectrometry detection, Thermo Scientific Q-Exactive Orbitrap mass spectrometer was used, data acquisition was carried out in positive ion mode, and the mobile phase was methanol-water solution (containing 0.1% formic acid) with a volume ratio of 1:1. The results are shown in Figure 13 Figure 2, when the polypeptide modified with azidoacetic acid at the N-terminus was detected alone, there were many surrounding impurity peaks, and after stable isotope labeling, the detected spectrum showed a relatively clean mass spectrum, and had good stable isotope characteristics.

[0178] Experimental Example 3

[0179] Application of the compound represented by formula (III) as a stable isotope labeling reagent for carboxyl compounds:

[0180] (1) Since the hydrazide group does not directly react with the carboxylic acid, the carboxylic acid is activated with EDC and HOAT to form a stable labeled product. For labeling of polypeptides containing exposed carboxyl groups at the C-terminus, the polypeptide solution (50 μL, 5 mM) is placed in a sample bottle, then a mixed solvent of EDC / HOAT / MES with a volume ratio of 1:1:7 is added, and the concentrations of EDC and HOAT are both 50 mM, then light, medium and heavy stable isotope labeling reagents (100 μL, 10 mM) are added, i.e. 6-[d0], 6-[d4] and 6-[d6]. After mixing evenly, the solution is shaken at 20°C for 3h. Finally, after concentration and reconstitution, it is stored at 4°C. The amino acid sequence of the polypeptide containing exposed carboxyl groups at the C-terminus is NH2-Gly-Phe-Lys-Gly-COOH.

[0181] (2) The mass spectrometry conditions are the same as described in Experimental Example 2. The results are shown in Figure 14 Figure 3, the exposed carboxyl groups at the C-terminus of the polypeptide reacted with light, medium and heavy stable isotope labeling reagents, and mass spectrum peaks with mass increases of 241 Da, 245 Da and 247 Da were produced. Through comparative analysis, it was found that the signal intensity of the labeled peptide segment was significantly enhanced, the noise was reduced, and the signal-to-noise ratio was improved, thus embodying the excellent performance of the stable isotope labeling reagent designed in the present application in detecting polypeptides.
