Fast atom bombardment mass spectra of mercapturic acid-pathway metabolites of propachlor (2-chloro-N-isopropylacetanilide). 1982

G L Larsen, and R Ryhage

1. Fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectra, obtained from mercapturic acid-pathway metabolites (glutathione-, mercapturic acid- and cysteine-conjugates, and a sulphoxide of the mercapturate) of propachlor, are presented. 2. Each underivatized mercapturic acid-pathway metabolite of propachlor gave a FAB mass spectrum containing an (M + H)+ ion (7-100% relative intensity), an (M + Na)+ ion and characteristic fragment ions. 3. The advantage of the FAB technique in obtaining mass spectra of these mercapturic acid-pathway metabolites of propachlor and other xenobiotics is discussed. 4. Ions in the FAB spectra resulting from sample fragment/glycerol interactions were characterized.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008970	Molecular Weight	The sum of the weight of all the atoms in a molecule.	Molecular Weights,Weight, Molecular,Weights, Molecular
D003545	Cysteine	A thiol-containing non-essential amino acid that is oxidized to form CYSTINE.	Cysteine Hydrochloride,Half-Cystine,L-Cysteine,Zinc Cysteinate,Half Cystine,L Cysteine
D005978	Glutathione	A tripeptide with many roles in cells. It conjugates to drugs to make them more soluble for excretion, is a cofactor for some enzymes, is involved in protein disulfide bond rearrangement and reduces peroxides.

D000083	Acetanilides	Compounds based on N-phenylacetamide, that are similar in structure to 2-PHENYLACETAMIDES. They are precursors of many other compounds. They were formerly used as ANALGESICS and ANTIPYRETICS, but often caused lethal METHEMOGLOBINEMIA.	Acetylanilines,N-Phenylacetamides
D000111	Acetylcysteine	The N-acetyl derivative of CYSTEINE. It is used as a mucolytic agent to reduce the viscosity of mucous secretions. It has also been shown to have antiviral effects in patients with HIV due to inhibition of viral stimulation by reactive oxygen intermediates.
