Diazotised sulphanilic acid as a spectrophotometric reagent for the determination of trace amounts of indole in aqueous solution

Abstract: A spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace amounts of indole in aqueous solution is described. The method is based on the coupling reaction of the determinand with diazotised sulphanilic acid to form, in an acidic medium, an intense yellow, water-soluble, stable azo dye, which shows maximum absorption at 445 nm. The graph of absorbance versus concentration in linear, indicating that Beer's law is obeyed over the range 30-90 pg of indole in a final volume of 25 ml, i.e., 1.2-3.6 p.p.m., with a m… Show more

“…32 The azo compounds formed between diazotized sulfanilic acid and indole in aqueous solution have been early described in a spectrophotometric method. 35,36 In our work, the development of the reaction occurs in two steps: firstly, the reaction of sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) with sodium nitrite occurs in an acid medium (HCl) producing the diazo compound. Secondly, the diazo compound in alkaline medium coupled with the BPA produced a compound that was monitored at 445 nm.…”
