The three analytes of the Traditional Chinese Medicine ZibuPiyin Recipe (ZBPYR), namely, liquiritin, protocatechuic aldehyde and rosmarinic acid, may synergistically play an important role in regulating memory and learning. However, the pharmacokinetic behaviors of these compounds after their co-administration remain unclear. To this end, a selective and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated in rat plasma for the study of these three major bioactive ingredients in ZBPYR. The analytes in the plasma samples were separated on a Shiseido Capcell core C 18  column using bendrofluazide as an internal standard, with a gradient mobile phase system of acetonitrile–water containing 0.1% formic acid. Electrospray ionization in the negative-ion mode and multiple reaction monitoring were used to identify and quantify the three analytes. All of the calibration curves showed good linearity ( r  &gt; 0.992) over the concentration range, with a lower limit of quantification of 5 ng/mL. The precision of the analytical method was evaluated by intra- and inter-day assays, and the percentage of relative standard deviation (SD) was within 15%. Satisfactory extraction efficiency (between 83.4 and 99.4%) and matrix effects (76.4–107.4) were obtained by liquid–liquid extraction. The pharmacokinetic results showed that the three bioactive ingredients were rapidly absorbed and had a short terminal half-life in rats after oral administration of ZibuPiyin recipe. This UPLC–MS-MS study method used in this study may be useful for assessing the pharmacokinetic characteristics of various compounds, which would be helpful in determining their clinical potential.
