The 9‐hydroxy‐2‐(U‐ 2 H 3 ) methylellipticinium acetate (elliptinium) was synthesized with an isotopic purity of at least 96%. The structure was confirmed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance and direct probe fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. A mixture of elliptinium and its deuterated analogue was administered intravenously to rats. In urine, after analysis by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS), unchanged drug and N ‐acetylcysteinylelliptinium were found. In bile, after ion‐pair extraction and LC/MS, the glutathionyl‐elliptinium was found in addition to the parent drug and the N ‐acetylcysteine adduct.
