An electron-capture gas chromatographic procedure for the simultaneous determination of amphetamine and N-methylamphetamine in biological samples is described. The method employs extraction with the ion-pairing reagent bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid, and back-extraction with 0.5 M hydrochloric acid. The hydrochloric acid phase is basified, and the amphetamines and the internal standard benzylamine are derivatized with pentafluorobenzenesulfonyl chloride prior to analysis on a gas chromatograph equipped with a capillary column. Levels of amphetamine and N-methylamphetamine have been determined in the urine and liver of rats treated chronically with (-)-deprenyl.

D002849 Chromatography, Gas Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D000661 Amphetamine A powerful central nervous system stimulant and sympathomimetic. Amphetamine has multiple mechanisms of action including blocking uptake of adrenergics and dopamine, stimulation of release of monamines, and inhibiting monoamine oxidase. Amphetamine is also a drug of abuse and a psychotomimetic. The l- and the d,l-forms are included here. The l-form has less central nervous system activity but stronger cardiovascular effects. The d-form is DEXTROAMPHETAMINE.
