Phenytoin is one of the most widely employed anticonvulsant drugs in t
he world. Because this drug has several side effects, an exhaustive st
ructure-toxicity study is needed. To find an easy and cost-effective w
ay to monitor phenytoin In metabolism and toxicity studies, 18 phenyto
in derivatives were synthesized and analysed by fast-atom bombardment
tandem mass spectrometry.
