Abstract
Dimethylformamide dimethylacetal reacted quantitatively and reproducibly with glutethimide, phenobarbital, hexobarbital, secobarbital, amobarbital, aprobarbital, and pentobarbital to form the corresponding acetals. The acetal derivative could be chromatographed easily on a 3% OV-17 column using either isothermal or programmed conditions (for multiple separations), permitting the separation and determination of the compounds studied with good precision and speed. NMR evidence and mass fragmentography was used to confirm the structure of the derivative. The glutethimide derivative was susceptible to solvent-induced reversibility.
