Lipid components in green coffee were clarified to provide essential data support for green coffee processing. The types, components, and relative contents of lipids in green coffee were first analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography–time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF-MS/MS). The results showed that the main fatty acids in green coffee were linoleic acid (43.39%), palmitic acid (36.57%), oleic acid (8.22%), and stearic acid (7.37%). Proportionally, the ratio of saturated fatty acids/unsaturated fatty acids/polyunsaturated fatty acids was close to 5.5:1:5.2. A total of 214 lipids were identified, including 15 sterols, 39 sphingosines, 12 free fatty acids, 127 glycerides, and 21 phospholipids. The main components of sterols, sphingosines, free fatty acids, glycerides, and phospholipids were acylhexosyl sitosterol, ceramide esterified omega-hydroxy fatty acid sphingosine, linoleic acid, and triglyceride, respectively. UPLC-TOF-MS/MS furnished high-quality and accurate information on TOF MS and TOF MS/MS spectra, providing a reliable analytical technology platform for analyzing lipid components in green coffee.
