4-(7-Diethylaminocoumarin-3-yl)benzoyl cyanide (DACB-CN) was synthesiz
ed as a new fluorescent derivatization reagent for alcohols for use in
high-performance liquid chromatography. Saturated alcohols (C-8-C-22)
were derivatized in good yields to give the corresponding fluorescent
DACB-esters by treatment with DACB-CN. The DACB-esters of these alcoh
ols were clearly separated on a reversed-phase HPLC column. The detect
ion limit (S/N = 3) of cetyl alcohol, a test compound, was 1-2 fmol/l0
