Two new simple, precise, rapid and extraction-free spectrophotometric methods are proposed for the determination of raloxifene hydrochloride (RLX) using bromate-bromide mixture and two dyes, methylene blue and rhodamine B, as reagents. The methods entail the addition of a known excess of bromatebromide mixture to RLX in hydrochloric acid medium followed by determination of residual bromine by reacting with a fixed amount of either methylene blue and measuring the absorbance at 665 nm (Method A) or rhodamine B and measuring the absorbance at 555 nm (Method B). The amount of bromate reacted corresponds to the amount of RLX. In both the methods, the absorbance is found to increase linearly with the concentration of RLX. Under the optimum conditions, RLX could be assayed in the concentration ranges 0.5-5.0 and 0.1-2.0 µg mL-1 from method A and method B, respectively. The apparent molar absorptivities are calculated to be 7.0 x10 4 and 1.1x10 5 L mol-1 cm-1 for method A and method B, respectively, and the corresponding Sandell sensitivity values are 0.0073 and 0.0048 µg cm-2. The limits of detection and quantification have also been reported for both the spectrophotometric methods. The overall reproducibility of the methods was excellent and recoveries were 98.3-102.5% and 98.2-103.2% for method A and method B, respectively. The proposed methods can be readily utilized for bulk drug and in pharmaceutical formulations.
A simple, sensitive and selective extractive spectrophotometric method for the determination of quetiapine fumarate (QTF) in bulk drug, tablets and spiked human urine sample is described. The method is based on the formation of a chloroform extractable yellow ion-pair complex between basic nitrogen of the drug (QTF) and the dye quinoline yellow (QY) in acetate-hydrochloride buffer (pH 2.56) medium. The formed ion-pair complex exhibited an absorption maximum at 420 nm. Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration range 2.5-25 µg mL -1 with an apparent molar absorptivity value of 2.02 × 10 4 L mol -1 cm -1 . The Sandell sensitivity, limits of detection (LOD) and quantification values are also reported. The composition of the ion-pair was established by Job's continuous variations method and it was found to be 1:1 (QTF:QY). The proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of QTF in bulk drug, tablets and spiked human urine without any interference. (doi: 10.5562/cca1770)
Two new, simple, rapid and reproducible spectrophotometric methods have been developed for the determination of lamotrigine (LMT) both in pure form and in its tablets. The first method (method A) is based on the formation of a colored ion-pair complex (1:1 drug/dye) of LMT with bromocresol green (BCG) at pH 5.02±0.01 and extraction of the complex into dichloromethane followed by the measurement of the yellow ion-pair complex at 410 nm. In the second (method B), the drug-dye ion-pair complex was dissolved in ethanolic potassium hydroxide and the resulting base form of the dye was measured at 620 nm. Beer's law was obeyed in the concentration range of 1.5-15 µg mL-1 and 0.5-5.0 µg mL-1 for method A and method B, respectively, and the corresponding molar absorptivity values are 1.6932 x 10 4 and 3.748 x 10 4 L mol-1 cm-1. The Sandell sensitivity values are 0.0151 and 0.0068 µg cm-2 for method A and method B, respectively. The stoichiometry of the ion-pair complex formed between the dug and dye (1:1) was determined by Job's continuous variations method and the stability constant of the complex was also calculated. The proposed methods were applied successfully for the determination of drug in commercial tablets.
