    Abstract:
    An analytical method for the enantioselective determination of selfotel in human urine has been developed and validated. The method is based on high-performance liquid chromatography and utilizes CGS 20005 (a selfotel analog) as the internal standard. Urine samples were derivatized in situ with o-phthalic dicarboxaldehyde-3-mercaptopropionic acid and 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC). Chromatographic separations of the FMOC derivatives of selfotel enantiomers and the internal standard were achieved using a column switching system consisting of an Inertsil ODS-2 column (75x4.6 mm I.D., 5 microm) and a Chiralcel OD-R column (250x4.6 mm I.D., 10 microm). The composition of the mobile phase was acetonitrile-0.1 M phosphate buffer, pH 2.50 (35:65) for the Inertsil ODS-2 column and acetonitrile-0.1 M phosphate buffer, pH 2.00 (35:65) for the Chiralcel OD-R column. The analytes were monitored using fluorescence detection at an excitation wavelength of 262 nm and an emission wavelength of 314 nm. The limit of quantification (LOQ) for this method is 0.25 microg/ml for each selfotel enantiomer. The method was successfully utilized to determine preliminary selfotel stereospecific pharmacokinetics.
