Objective:To determine the content of methanol, alcohol and isopropanol in flupirtine maleat by headspace gas chro-matography. Methods:The capillary gas chromatography with programming temperature was established with an FID detector and a DB-624(30 m × 0. 53 mm,3. 0 μm) capillary column. The temperature of the injector and the detector was 200℃ and 250℃, respec-tively. The residual organic solvents were determined by an external standard method. Results: Methanol, alcohol and isopropanol showed good linearity within the range of 2. 182~152. 74(r=0. 999 1), 3. 546-248. 22(r=0. 9998)and 4. 082-285. 74 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 7) with the average recovery of 97. 7%(RSD=1. 5%),99. 0%(RSD=1. 1%)and 98. 8%(RSD=1. 1%)(n=5), respec-tively. Conclusion:The method is simple, sensitive and accurate, and can be used in the residual solvents detection for flupirtine mal-eat.
