J Anal Toxicol. 1992 Jan-Feb;16(1):33-5. doi: 10.1093/jat/16.1.33.

Abstract

Azaperone, dihydroazaperone, and 4'[fluoro-4-(4-(2-pyridyl)-1-piperazinyl]butyrophenone are identified in the urine of an intoxicated patient. The structures of the metabolites were confirmed by comparison of their TLC, GC, and GC/MS data with those of synthesized materials.
