A selective and sensitive ultra‐high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for the determination and pharmacokinetic study of (+)‐8‐hydroxypinoresinol‐4’‐O‐β ‐D‐glucopyranoside, prinsepiol‐4‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside, (+)‐pinoresinol‐4,4’‐di‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside, and (−)‐massoniresinol 3α‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside in rat plasma after the oral administration of a Valeriana amurensis extract. The analytes and ethyl 4‐hydroxybenzoate (internal standard) were separated on a Waters ACQUITY UPLC HSS T3 chromatographic column. The detection was performed on a triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer in multiple reaction monitoring mode using an electrospray ionization source operating in negative ionization mode. The linear ranges (ng/mL) of the standard curves were 0.39–154.00, 0.62–244.70, 0.50–198.60, and 0.34–134.50 for (+)‐8‐hydroxypinoresinol‐4’‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside, prinsepiol‐4‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside, (+)‐pinoresinol‐4,4’‐di‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside, and (−)‐massoniresinol 3α‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranoside, respectively. The inter‐ and intra‐day precisions were less than 11.0%, the accuracies were between −5.9 and 7.7%, and the extraction recoveries of the four analytes were > 81.2% from rat plasma. The method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study of the four analytes after oral administration of a Valeriana amurensis extract to rats. The developed method has the potential for pharmacokinetic analysis and to provide additional information in the clinical application of Valeriana amurensis.
