A new non-radioisotopic immunoassay procedure, which we have termed carbonylmetalloimmunoassay (CMIA), is described. The tracers used in this approach are organometallic carbonyl complexes that can be detected at femtomole levels (300-700 fmol) by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The validity of the technique has been tested in a phenobarbital assay using as the marker a cyclopentadienylmanganese (I) tricarbonyl (cymantrene) moiety, ethyl acetate extraction to separate the free and bound organometallic fractions, and FT-IR spectroscopy to detect the CO stretching modes of the organometallic label. Typical dilution and standard curves obtained with this CMIA procedure are presented. The method was of comparable sensitivity to a [14C] radioimmunoassay (RIA) for the detection of phenobarbital. A comparison of the results for phenobarbital assays by both CMIA and RIA showed that higher titres were obtained using the CMIA method. The standard curves suggest that CMIA is a reliable and reproducible immunoassay procedure for phenobarbital.

A non-isotopic heterogeneous competitive immunoassay procedure, carbonylmetalloimmunoassay (CMIA) has been applied to the assay of cortisol. The organometallic tracers employed were two stereoisomers (Z and E) of certain cobalt carbonyl complexes of cortisol which have strong, characteristic v(CO) absorptions in the infrared, detectable by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy at the femtomole level. The separation of the free and bound organometallic-labelled fractions was achieved by solvent extraction with isopropyl ether.

A quantitative FT-IR spectroscopic method has been developed for the trace analysis in chlorinated organic solvents of transition-metal carbonyl-labeled bioligands. In order to illustrate the widespread analytical potential of the method, three derivatives of the female hormonal steroid 17 beta-estradiol, containing Cr(CO)3, Cp2Mo2(CO)4 (Cp = eta 5-C5H5), and Co2(CO)6 as labels, and the anticonvulsant drug phenobarbital, labeled with (eta 5-C5H4)Mn(CO)3, were examined. The cobalt carbonyl marker proved to be the best sulted for quantitative analysis purposes, and the minimum tracer quantity detectable for this particular marker (64 scans, 4-cm-1 resolution, 3.

The synthesis of the transition-metal carbonyl complex (N-succinimidyl 4-pentynoate)hexacarbonyldicobalt [[(C4H4O2N)O(CO)CH2CH2C identical to CH]Co2(CO)6] is described. This cobalt carbonyl complex is structurally similar to the Bolton-Hunter conjugation reagent and has been successfully employed as a nonradioactive tracer for labeling the drug carbamazepine. The metal carbonyl tracer can be detected at extremely low concentrations (ca.
