High-throughput high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry for modern drug discovery.

High-throughput high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry can be used in the analysis of high-throughput organic synthesis products, bioanalytical target analysis for preclinical and clinical studies, and early absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) screening. New techniques are emerging, including system automation, faster analysis, programmed multiple extraction and analysis columns, multiple electrospray ionization channels, and automated 96-well sample preparation.

High-throughput techniques for compound characterization and purification.

A new paradigm in drug discovery is the synthesis of structurally diverse collections of compounds, so-called libraries, followed by high-throughput biological screening. High-throughput characterization and purification techniques are required to provide high-quality compounds and reliable biological data, which has led to the development of faster methods, system automation and parallel approaches. This review summarizes recent advances in support of analytical characterization and preparative purification technologies. Notably, mass spectrometry (MS) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) are among the areas where new developments have had a major impact on defining these high-throughput applications.

Reduction processes in fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry: interdependence of analyte and matrix redox potentials.

The reduction of selected redox indicator dyes during fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry was investigated in several different matrices. Reduction is indicated by the incorporation of one or more hydrogens into the cation of the dye. The extent of reduction of the analyte can be related to the E 1/2 value of the reduction potential of the dye. Selection of matrix also influences the reduction, the reducing power decreasing in the order glycerol greater than sulfolane greater than thioglycerol greater than hydroxyethyl disulfide greater than nitrobenzyl alcohol. Evidence is given suggesting that reduction is initiated by exposure of the analyte-matrix mixture to atom bombardment. It is shown that reduction can be controlled by the addition of metal ions with a very low reduction potential to the matrix to act as electron scavengers.
