Abstract The importance of the chiral analysis of amphetamine‐related substances in both clandestine preparations and biological samples is widely recognized. For this purpose, capillary electrophoresis was successfully applied by several authors, but only few reports concerned ring‐substituted amphetamines, which represent the main components of “ecstasy”, a widely abused “recreational”...
