General description

Hexyl chloroformate belongs to the class of chloroformates. It is widely used in the derivatization of highly hydrophilic compounds to hexyl esters, carbonates and carbamates.

Application

Hexyl chloroformate may be used as a derivatizing reagent for the quantification of antiepileptic drugs, cathinones, amphetamine-like stimulants and other new psychoactive substances in biological samples using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
