A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method is des
cribed to distinguish chlorambucil N-oxide from the parent chlorambuci
l and quantitate both after separation from biological samples. The in
fluence of solvent pH, alcohol, acid and ion-pairing agent on the sepa
ration is described. The stability of chlorambucil and its N-oxide in
buffers and alcohols, as well as stability during filtration is discus
sed with potential application for metabolic studies.
