A rapid and simple method was demonstrated for the analysis of atropine, anisodamine, and scopolamine by nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) coupled with electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and electrochemistry (EC) dual detection. The mixture of acetonitrile (ACN) and 2-propanol containing 1 M acetic acid (HAc), 20 mM sodium acetate (NaAc), and 2.5 mM tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP) was used as the electrophoretic buffer. Although a short capillary of 18 cm was used, the decoupler was not needed and the separation efficiency was good. The linear ranges of atropine, anisodamine, and scopolamine were 0.5-50, 5-2000, and 50-2000 mu M, respectively. For six replicate measurements of 100 mu M scopolamine, 15 mu M atropine, and 200 mu M anisodamine, the RSDs of ECL intensity, EC current, and migration time were less than 3.6%, 4.5%. and 0.3%, respectively. In addition, because the organic buffer was used, the working electrode (Pt) was not easily fouled and did not need reactivation. The method was also applied for the determination of these three alkaloids in Flos daturae extract. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
