The chemical reaction between procainamide hydrochloride and glucose following admixture to glucose infusion has been investigated. Substantial amounts (10-15% after 10 h at room temperature) of the procainamide is lost with the formation of a mixture of the corresponding alpha- and beta-glucosylamines. The chemical identity of the latter compounds was confirmed by 13C and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
