In this work, as the first analytical application of the Petasis reaction, a highperformance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method with fluorescence detection was developed for determination of glyoxylic acid. The glyoxylic acid was derivatized with 1- pyreneboronic acid, as fluorescent arylboronic acid, in the presence of N-methylbutylamine, as amine, to give a fluorescent α-amino acid. HPLC separation of the fluorescent derivative was performed within 30 min on an octyl column eluted with a gradient prepared from acetonitrile and 50 mmol L -1 acetate buffer (pH 4.0). The detection limit (S/N03) for glyoxylic acid was 5.0 nmol L -1 (20 fmol/injection). The method can be used to determine the concentration of glyoxylic acid in human urine without interference from biological components., Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 403(9), pp.2765-2770; 2012}, pages = {2765--2770}, title = {Determination of glyoxylic acid in urine by liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection, using a novel derivatization procedure based on the Petasis reaction}, volume = {403}, year = {2012} }
