Analysis of Designer Stimulants by GC/MSApplication Compendium

IntroductionBy Fran Diamond, Chemistry Technical Leader, NMS Labs

A new wave of drug compounds are chemical variations of older traditional stimulant drugs. Popularly known and labeled as “bath salts,” these compounds are synthetic derivatives of psychedelic chemicals known as cathinones, tryptamines, phenethylamines and piperazines. They are chemically altered so that they are not technically illegal. These new chemicals vary by slight changes to the chemical structure by placement of alkyl side-chains, replacement of methyl with ethyl groups, etc. They are packaged and sold under names such as “Ivory wave” ,“Vanilla sky”, and “Tranquility”, to name a few, and under the guise of “bath salts” or “plant food” and more recently “party powders”. These products are legal. These are dangerous compounds. They have not been tested in humans.

Numerous states have enacted legislation banning the use of some of these drugs. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) recently used its emergency authority to ban chemicals used in “bath salts”, calling the chemicals an “imminent hazard” to the public; but this only addressed three of the more prevalent chemicals. There are many more of these substances and even when controlled, newer variations are readily infused. This phenomenon has given law enforcement and testing laboratories a series of challenges to overcome in order to provide testing of these new materials. As with the synthetic cannabinoids, which emerged recently, these newer variations are being manufactured and distributed worldwide.

Few legitimate suppliers of reference materials have been able to keep up with numerous analogous and homologous materials that are used. There are endless possible chemical variations. To compound the problem, there is abundant information on the internet for synthesizing these compounds.

Analytical laboratories have had a difficult time obtaining pure reference material to use for positive identification. As soon as legislation is passed banning their use, different drugs show up in the next wave. The number of variations is constantly expanding. These materials are also structurally similar in terms of chromatographic retention time and mass spectral appearance. There are many isomeric possibilities that require the analysis be capable of measuring slight variation in data. This can be chromatographic retention or slight differences in mass spectral fragmentation. Data analysis needs to be able to identify the subtle differences in these species and be able to find these substances in complex mixtures.

ExtractionThese compounds are generally basic amine compounds and can be easily extracted into organic solvent under basic conditions. Since it is not uncommon to find multiple drugs of various chemical properties, we use an acid/base combined extraction. In this procedure, we acidify an aliquot of sample (approximately 25 mg of material) by adding 1 mL of de-ionized water followed by the addition of internal standard and 3 drops of 10% HCl. We next add 1 mL of extraction solvent (95% methylene chloride/5% isopropanol v/v) and mix briefly. We centrifuge the sample and remove the bottom solvent layer and keep. To the remaining aqueous mixture, we add 2 drops of concentrated ammonium hydroxide solution and add 1 mL of the above mentioned mixed solvent layer. Tubes are again mixed and centrifuged, and the lower solvent layer is again removed and combined with the initial solvent. This combined extract is then mixed briefly and transferred to an autosampler vial and capped. It is now ready for instrumental analysis.

IntroductionSpectra obtained for all bath salts on the Agilent 240 Ion Trap GC/MS are comparable to spectra generated on the Agilent 5973 GC/MSD. The bath salts Designer Drugs Library created using spectra from the Agilent 5973 GC/MSD were used to accurately identify all analytes of interest in this study. Chromatograms and spectra obtained on the Agilent Technologies 240 Ion Trap GC/MS were seamlessly interpreted using Agilent’s MassHunter Workstation Software for qualitative and quantitative analysis. LOD for most analytes of interest was 1ppb in Full Scan mode. Whether you want to analyze bath salts by Quadruple or Ion Trap GC/MS, Agilent Technologies has the solution to your laboratory’s cutting-edge and complex forensic problems.
