High-performance liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC-APCI-MS) was successfully applied to seven stereoisomeric diterpenoid alkaloids at position 1 or 12. Comparison of the breakdown curves, observed by changing the potential difference between the first electrode and the second electrode of the APCI ion source, revealed stereochemical dependence of different fragmentations. The APCI spectra of alkaloids were predominantly the [M+H]^+ ion and the major fragment ion, corresponding to the [M+H-H_2O]^+ ion or the [M+H-CH_3COOH]^+ ion, and comparison of the APCI spectra showed that the abundance of fragment ions was significantly higher for C-1 β-form alkaloids than for C-1 α-form alkaloids, and for C-12 β-form alkaloids than for C-12 α-form alkaloids. The characteristic fragment ions were formed due to the loss of an acetic acid or a water molecule at position 12. The fragmentation mechanisms depending on the stereochemisry of the precursor ion could be discerned by recording the spectra in a deuterated solvent system of 0.05 M ammonium acetate in D_2O-acetonitrile-tetrahydrofuran. Loss of CH_3COOD or D_2O from the precursor ion gave the fragment ion. This result indicated that the proton of protonation was included in the leaving acetic acid and water molecule, respectively. The peak intensity ratio for R=[M+H]^+/[M+H-H_2O]^++[M+H-CH_3COOH]^+ manifested the stereochemical differentiation of alkaloids at position 1 or 12.
