Notes:
A sensitive gas-liquid chromatographic assay was developed for plasma determinations of flurazepam (F), N1-desalkylflurazepam (DF), and N1-hydroxyethylflurazepam (HF). The internal standards used were delorazepam for F and DF and 1 ã-hydroxymidazolam for HF. Following extraction and derivatization for HF, these compounds were analyzed by ECD-GLC, using either glass packed columns (poly A 103 for F and DF, OV 225 for HF) or CP-Sil 5 capillary columns for DF and HF. The detection limit of the packed-column assay was approximately 3ng/ml for HF and DF, and 5ng/ml for F; with capillary GLC analysis, the sensitivity limit for HF and DF was lower than 1 ng/ml. These methods were used for pharmacokinetic investigations after i. v. administration of these compunds.
