Article: Spectrophotometric determination of trifluoperazine HCl and isopropamide iodide in binary mixture using second derivative and second derivative of the ratio spectra methods.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Two methods are presented for the simultaneous determination of trifluoperazine hydrochloride and isopropamide iodide in binary mixture. The first method depends on second derivative ((2)D) ultraviolet spectrophotometry, with zero crossing and peak to base measurement. The second derivative amplitudes at 270.4 and 230.2 nm were selected for the assay of trifluoperazine hydrochloride and isopropamide iodide, respectively. The second method depends on second derivative of the ratio spectra by division of the absorption spectrum of the binary mixture by a normalized spectrum of one of the components and then calculating the second derivative of the ratio spectrum. The second derivative of the ratio amplitudes at 257 and 228 nm were selected for the determination of trifluoperazine hydrochloride and isopropamide iodide, respectively. The two proposed methods were successfully applied to the determination of the two drugs in laboratory prepared mixtures and in commercial tablets.Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis 10/2001; 26(2):203-10. · 2.97 Impact Factor -
Article: Spectrophotometric, spectrofluorimetric and LC determination of trazodone hydrochloride.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Three methods are described for the determination of trazodone hydrochloride in pharmaceutical tablets. The spectrophotometric method was based on the formation of yellow ion pair complex between the basic nitrogen of the drug and bromophenol blue at pH 3.4. The formed complex was extracted with chloroform and measured at 414 nm. The spectrofluorimetric method was based on measurement of the native fluorescence of the drug in 50% acetic acid upon excitation at a maximum of 320 nm and the emission wavelength is 435 nm. The third method was based on the high performance liquid chromatographic determination of trazodone hydrochloride using a reversed phase, ODS column, with a mobile phase of acetonitrile--phosphate buffer at pH 4.5 (60:40, v/v). Quantization was achieved with UV detection at 250 nm based on peak area. The three methods were simple, accurate and suitable for quality control application.Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis 10/2001; 26(2):211-7. · 2.97 Impact Factor
