چکیده

Method of chemical derivatization is the main difference among the GC-MS based methodologies reported for the analysis of ketamine and its major metabolites (norketamine and dehydronorketamine). These approaches included acylation and silylation resulting in the formation of acetyl, trifluoroacetyl, heptafluorobutyryl, and pentafluorobenzoyl (for acylation); and possibly trimethylsilyl and t-butyldimethylsilyl (for silylation) derivatives. This study evaluates the merits of these approaches based on the following criteria: reaction yields and ionization efficiency of the derivatization products; chromatographic characteristics; and cross-contributions to the intensities of ions designating the analyte and the internal standard. Pentafluorobenzoyl-derivatives were found to provide the best performance characteristics.

Impact of Pharmaceutical Impurities in Ecstasy Tablets: Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Study

In this study, a simple and reliable method by gas chromatograph–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) was developed for the fast and regular identification of 3, 4-MDMA impurities in ecstasy tablets. In so doing, 8 samples of impurities were extracted by diethyl ether under alkaline condition and then analyzed by GC–MS. The results revealed high MDMA levels ranging from 37.6% to 57.7%. The GC-MS method sh...
