    Sildenafil analogues have been found adulterated in herbal preparations and food products that claim to have natural aphrodisiacs. In this study, a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) assay was developed for the screening and identification of thioketone analogues of sildenafil. Thiopyrazolopyrimidine, a precursor or a cleavage product of thioketone analogue, exhibited characteristic fragment ions of m/z 328 and m/z 299 was found to be the best marker to screen the presence of general thioketone analogues. Identification by GC-MS assay was rapid and specific as all the studied thioketones showed characteristic mass fragmentations including their intact molecular ions. The developed GC-MS assay had successfully identified thiosildenafil, thiohomosildenafil and thiodimethylsildenafil in herbal preparation and food products.
