Mg. Quaglia et al., ANALYSIS OF NON-BENZODIAZEPINIC ANXIOLYTIC AGENTS BY CAPILLARY ZONE ELECTROPHORESIS, Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, 13(4-5), 1995, pp. 505-509
A simple capillary electrophoretic method was developed for the analys
is of a new generation of serotonergic anxiolytics and their related s
ubstances: zalospirone, gepirone, ipsapirone and buspirone. All compou
nds run in a Tris/phosphate buffer at pH 3 as cations and the experime
ntal conditions allowed good resolution of four drugs and their princi
pal impurities. The analyses were made rising two different kinds of c
apillary. The suitability of CZE and HPLC methods for the analysis of
these non-benzodiazepinic anxiolytic agents and their impurities was c
ompared.
