Abstract

Plasma or whole blood is treated with o-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride in phosphoric acid under conditions found spectrophotometrically to give maximum yields of the quinoxalinols. The quinoxalinols are extracted and, after removing phosphoric acid, etc., silylated with bis-trimethylsilyltrifluoracetamide in acetonitrile. Other solvents caused instability of the trimethylsilyl(TMS)-quinoxalinols. Gas chromatography on a packed column of trifluoropropyl silicone gave good separation of the TMS-quinoxalinols from one another and from other substances derived from blood. Some representative values for normal arterial and venous human and canine plasma are reported.
