Pentafluorobenzoyl derivatives of doping agents. I. Extractive benzoylation and gas chromatography with electron-capture detection of primary and secondary amines.
A sensitive and rapid method for the gas chromatographic (with electron-capture detection) confirmation of derivable sympathomimetic amines is described. Extractive derivatization with pentafluorobenzoyl chloride is performed on 2-ml urine or plasma samples. Especially for primary amines, the method appears to be very sensitive. Mass spectral data allowed confirmation of the monobenzoylation of all congeners.
