A rapid and accurate gas chromatographic (GC) method is described for the determination of chloramphenicol, thiamphenicol and their metabolites excreted in human urine. These excretions were pre-treated with diazomethane and N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide, so that they could be easily subjected to

β¦ Synopsis
The pentafluorophenyldimethylsilyl group is an excellent protecting group for steroid alcohols, giving volatile ethers, detectable at picogram levels in gas chromatography with an electron capture detector. By the use of five reagents, increasingly hindered hydroxyl groups can be protected, so that structural information about unidentified sterols can be obtained. Quantitative derivative formation for a wide range of hydroxyl groups is possible by selection of the correct reagent combination, without affecting unprotected enolizable ketones.

A simple method for gas chromatographiclmass spectrometric identification of A5\*7-sterols and their acetates in complex sterol mixtures is proposed. It is based on the fact that they are more readily dehydrated (respectively deacetylated) at high temperatures, compared with A5-sterols. Sterol mixtu
