Abstract:A combination of ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) measurements and computational methods were used to study structural and physicochemical properties of a range of quinoline-based drugs: amodiaquine (AQ), cinchonine (CIN), chloroquine (CQ), mefloquine (MQ), pamaquine (PQ), primaquine (PR), quinacrine (QR), quinine (QN), and sitamaquine (SQ). In experimental studies, ionization of these compounds using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) yields monoprotonated species in the gas phase while ele… Show more
