The peel of Citrus reticulata ‘Chachi’ (GCP), which is highly valued in China for its health-promoting effects, is usually collected at different development stages to be processed into various functional foods. In the present work, a rapid method based on ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography Q Exactive Orbitrap mass spectrometry-incorporated untargeted and pseudotargeted metabolomics analysis was developed to investigate the chemical variations in GCP at different ripeness stages. Samples that originated from an individual tree were collected at immature, near mature, and mature stages. A total of 112 compounds were identified or tentatively identified, and flavonoids malonyl glycosides and polymethoxyfolavones glycosides were reported for the first time. Untargeted metabolomics analysis indicated the distinct chemical profiles and significant changes during ripeness stages. Then, a validated pseudotargeted metabolomics method based on parallel reaction monitoring was further applied with a wide coverage of targeted compounds. The GCP samples were found differing in the content variations of flavonoid aglycones, flavonoid O-/C-glycosides, polymethoxyfolavones, limonoids, alkaloids, and phenolic acid, which are important for phenotypic variations at different development stages. The present study is expected to provide new insight on comprehensive utilization of citrus peels at different ripeness stages.
