title: [Study of the detection characteristics of clozapine, N-desmethyl clozapine and olanzapine with high performance liquid chromatograph-electrochemical detector].
abstract: In order to analyze clozapine, N-desmethyl clozapine and olanzapine, their detection characteristics with high performance liquid chromatograph-electrochemical detector (HPLC-ECD) were investigated. The separation was performed on an ODS-3 column with the mobile phase of methanol and 0.1 mol/L phosphate buffer(60:40, V/V). The retention times of clozapine, N-desmethyl clozapine and olanzapine were all prolonged with higher pH of the mobile phase. These three compounds could be separated on the baseline at pH 4.56 and 5.56. The relationships of peak heights and detection voltages shown typical "S" shaped curves, and these curves shifted to the left with higher pH. To get stable detection current, the detection voltages for clozapine, N-desmethyl clozapine and olanzapine must be higher than 0.60 V, 0.60 V and 0.35 V at pH 4.56, and 0.48 V, 0.48 V and 0.30 V at pH 5.56, respectively. The typical "S" shaped ampere-volt curves were very important for the selection of suitable voltage for quantitative detection, and could be used for the qualitative detection of these three compounds.
