[0115] 3Discussion

[0116] 3.1 Selection of sample solvent and mobile phase

[0117] The mobile phase proportions of water-acetonitrile (32:68), water-acetonitrile (35:65), and water-acetonitrile (37:63) were investigated. See Table 1. Figure 4 (208 nm chromatogram, 1. 23-acetyloleanol C, 2. clobetasol propionate, 3. oleanol B, 4. 23-acetyloleanol B). The results showed that when water-acetonitrile (37:63) was used, the separation degree of the 23-acetyloleanol C peak and the clobetasol propionate peak reached 2.7, the separation degree of each target peak and the adjacent impurity peak met the requirements, and the retention time of each target peak was suitable.

[0118] 3.2 Selection of determination wavelength

[0119] The determination wavelength was selected according to the ultraviolet spectrum of the clobetasol propionate and the 23-acetyloleanol C, 23-acetyloleanol B, and oleanol B reference substance solutions. See Table 2. Figure 5 23-acetyloleanol B and oleanol B have terminal absorption, and 208 nm was selected; 23-acetyloleanol C has maximum absorption at a wavelength of 246 nm; and clobetasol propionate has maximum absorption at a wavelength of 239 nm. After investigation, the determination wavelengths were determined to be 208 nm (23-acetyloleanol B and oleanol B), 246 nm (23-acetyloleanol C), and 239 nm (clobetasol propionate).

[0120] 3.3 Ultraviolet spectrum-assisted qualitative chromatographic peak

[0121] The effects of different liquid chromatographs, different brands of C18 chromatographic columns, the same brand of different batches of C18 chromatographic columns, column temperature, mobile phase proportion, and flow rate on the relative retention time of the three components were investigated. The results showed that different liquid chromatographs, the same brand of different batches of chromatographic columns, column temperature, mobile phase proportion, and flow rate had little effect, the relative retention time was stable, and the RSD was less than 3%. When different brand chromatographic columns were used, the relative retention time of the 23-acetyloleanol C peak fluctuated little, and the RSD was less than 3%; however, the relative retention time of the oleanol B peak and the 23-acetyloleanol B peak fluctuated greatly, and the RSDs were 6.90% and 12.13%, respectively, which could be assisted by ultraviolet spectrum for qualitative analysis. At the same time, it is suggested that when different brand chromatographic columns have an effect on the relative retention time in the replacement reference substance method, a specific model of chromatographic column can be specified.

For those skilled in the art, several improvements and refinements can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present application.
