[Investigations of the decomposition and detection of morazone by thin-layer- and gas-liquid-chromatography]. 1976

G Bohn, and G Rücker, and H Kröger

Three decomposition products of Morazone (ingredient of the pharmaceutical preparation Rosimon-Neu) were observed following heat treatment in acid medium (hydrochloric or tartaric acid). These products were isolated by TLC and identified as bis-antipyryl-methane, phenmetrazine and 4-hydroxymethyl-antipyrine by mass spectrometry and IR-spectroscopy and 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance. Morazone and the metabolite phenmetrazine may be extracted from alkaline urine using chloroform, however acid hydrolysis (pH 1) of the urine before alkaline extraction will improve the sensitivity of detection of morazone by producing the metabolite phenmetrazine in addition to bis-antipyrylmethane. The metabolite 4-hydroxymethyl-antipyrine is barely detectable by TLC from alkaline extraction of urine.

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.
