Quantitative Gas-Liquid Chromatography of Iproniazid and Iproclozide

Abstract

Analytically packed columns prepared with Versamid-930, Versamid-900, XE-60, and OV-225 as stationary phases were examined for quantitative gas-liquid chromatography of the potent monamine oxydase inhibitor (MAOI) drugs iproniazid and iproclozide. With the aid of chemically related substances as internal standards, response ratios were determined and linearities calculated by regression analysis. Using the 2-butyl analogs of compounds all four column systems permit quantitation of iproniazid and iproclozide with a percent standard deviation sigmaK of about 1% or less.
