  • Title: Derivatization of amino acids with N,N-dimethyl-2,4-dinitro-5-fluorobenzylamine for liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.
    Author: Liu Z, Minkler PE, Lin D, Sayre LM.
    Journal: Rapid Commun Mass Spectrom; 2004; 18(10):1059-65. PubMed ID: 15150828.
    Abstract:
    Derivatization, separation and identification of amino acids with a novel compound, N,N-dimethyl-2,4-dinitro-5-fluorobenzylamine (DMDNFB), using high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC/ESI-MS) was demonstrated. Compared to derivatization with 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB), DMDNFB-derivatized amino acids and dipeptides exhibit much larger ion current signals in the commonly used ESI positive mode, which was attributed to the introduction of the N,N-dimethylaminomethyl protonatable site.
