A reversed-phase (C18) HPLC method with diode-array detection was developed for the separation and determination of methylglyoxal bis(amidinohydrazone) (mitoguazone) and seven closely related aliphatic analogs thereof, namely the bis(amidinohydrazones) of glyoxal, dimethylglyoxal, ethylmethylglyoxal, methylpropylglyxxal, butylmethylglyoxal, diethylglyoxal and dipropylglyoxal. The mobile phase consisted of a non-linear binary gradient of methanol and 0.03 M aqueous sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.3). Good separation of the eight congeners was achieved. On increasing the methanol content of the eluent, the bis(amidinohydrazones) eluted in the order of increasing number of carbon atoms in the side-chains. The method was also applied to the quantitative analysis of the compounds in aqueous solution and, combined with ultrafiltration, for the separation of the eight congeners in spiked human blood serum. A separate simplified method for the quantitative determination of each of the compounds in spiked human blood serum samples was also developed. The methods developed made for the first time possible the simultaneous HPLC analysis of more than one bis(amidinohydrazones). The results obtained indicate that the bis(amidinohydrazones) studied obviously have a distinct tendency to form ion associates with acetate ions and probably also other carboxylate ions in aqueous solution. This aspect may be of biochemical significance, especially concerning the intracellular binding of the compounds. Each one of the compounds studied invariably gave rise to one peak only, this result supporting the theory that the conventional synthesis of each of the compounds gives rise to one geometrical isomer only. This result is completely in agreement with the results of previous proton and carbon NMR spectroscopic as well as X-ray diffraction studies.
