Synthetic drugs for recreational purposes are in constant evolution, and their consumption promotes a significant increase in intoxication cases, resulting in damaging public health. The development of analytical methodologies to confirm the consumption of illicit drugs in biological matrices is required for the control of these substances. This work exploited the development of an extraction method based on homogenous liquid–liquid microextraction with switchable hydrophilicity solvent (SHS) as extraction phase for the determination of the synthetic drugs 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine and N-methoxybenzyl-methoxyphenylethylamine derivates (25B, 25C and 25I) in postmortem blood, followed by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry in tandem. The optimized sample preparation conditions consisted of using 250 µL of ZnSO4 10% and 50 µL of NaOH 1 mol/L in the protein precipitation step; N,N -dimethylcyclohexylamine was used as SHS, 650 μL of a mixture of SHS:HCl 6 mol/L (1:1 v/v), 500 μL of whole blood, 500 μL of NaOH 10 mol/L and 1 min of extraction time. The proposed method was validated, providing determination coefficients higher than 0.99 for all analytes; limit of detection and limit of quantitation ranged from 0.1 to 10 ng/mL; intra-run precision from 2.16% to 9.19%; inter-run precision from 2.39% to 9.59%; bias from 93.57% to 115.71% and matrix effects from 28.94% to 51.54%. The developed method was successfully applied to four authentic postmortem blood samples from synthetic drugs users, and it was found to be reliable with good selectivity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
