Abstract

This paper presents retention behavior and mass spectra of eluting peaks for twelve phenyl and thienyl analogues of phencyclidine (PCP) as well as PCP itself. An on-column decomposition product common to all thienyl analogues is described. Finally, a practical analytical procedure is given for the detection and identification of these compounds in low (under 5 mg/mL) concentrations in urine.
