Abstract
1. 1. A rapid, sensitive gas Chromatographic procedure for analysis of β-phenylethylamine is reported. 2. 2. The procedure involves extraction with a liquid ion-pairing compound, back-extraction with HCl, basification and reaction with pentafluorobenzoyl chloride under aqueous conditions. The pentafluorobenzoyl derivative of β-phenylethylamine is then separated and analyzed on a gas Chromatograph equipped with a capillary column and an electron-capture detector. 3. 3. The procedure produces a derivative which has good Chromatographic properties and a high degree of stability. The method has been applied to analysis of β-phenyl ethyl — amine in a variety of tissues and body fluids.
