Abstract: Alprazolam is an antidepressant drug used extensively in clinic. In this study, 1H and 13C chemical shifts of the compound were completely assigned using 2D NMR techniques, including DEPT, 1H-1H COSY, 13C-1H HSQC and 13C-1H HMBC. Both NMR data and theoretical calculation showed that the methylene protons in the compound are magnetically non-equivalent. The infrared spectra and TOF-MS/MS spectra of alprazolam were also recorded.

Key words: NMR, assignment, IR, TOF MS, alprazolam
