A GC-MS method is described for quantification of 4-(5-)methylimidazole (4MI) in coffee. Although tested, GC-flame ionization detection proved inadequate for this purpose due to the complexity of the coffee matrix. The developed method was based on ion-pair extraction with bis-2-ethylhexylphosphate
