Titrimetric microdetermination of isoniazid by amplification reactions

An amplification method for the determination of (0.01–2.0 mg) isoniazid is described. It depends on oxidation of the isoniazid sample solution with a chloroform solution of iodine and removed of its excess, oxidation of the resulting iodide with bromine, and iodometric titration of the liberated iodate after 6-fold amplification. Alternatively, the liberated iodine is reduced to iodide, and again oxidized to yield 36 iodide ions for every iodide ion originally present. The coefficient of variation does not usually exceed 1.5% for above 0.5 mg of isoniazid but increases to 3.6% at the 0.01-mg level.     

Titrimetric microdetermination of inorganic or organic mercury by amplification reactions

A simple titrimetric method for estimation of 0.05-7 mg of Hg(II) is presented. The acidic sample solution is treated with a measured and excessive amount of iodide, then mercuric iodide is extracted at ph 2-3.5, and the unreacted iodide is determined iodometrically after 6- or 36-fold amplification by use of bromine water for oxidation of iodide to iodate. Periodate oxidation of excess of iodide gives 24-fold amplification. The coefficient of variation does not usually exceed 1% for above 1 mg of mercury but increases to 4% at the 0.05-mg level. The 6-fold amplification method is used for microdetermination of organically bound mercury following oxygen-flask combustion. The average absolute error for 10 determinations (3 compounds) amounted to +/-0.6%; one determination takes less than one hour.

It depends on iodine oxidation of the uric acid or thioglycollic acid solutions, removal of the excess of iodine, oxidation of the resulting iodide with bromine, and iodometric titration of the resulting iodate. The coefficient of variation ranges from 0.7 to 2.4% for uric acid and from 0.5 to 1.9% for thioglycollic acid, depending on the amount of the acid.     

Titrimetric Determination of Cresols

Abstract

A simple, rapid and sensitive titrimetric method with amplification has been worked out for the determination of 50–2000μg of o-cresol, m-cresol or p-cresol. It is based on bromination of these compounds with bromine water to form the corresponding hypobromites, which liberate an equivalent amount of iodine when treated with iodide. The sensitivity of the method has been increased using the Leipert amplification procedure. The coefficient of variation does not exceed 1.5% for above 500μg of the cresol, but increases to 2.2% at the 50μg-level.

It depends on oxidation of an alkaline solution of chloral hydrate with a chloroform solution of iodine, removal of excess of iodine, oxidation of the resulting iodide with bromine, and iodometric titration of the iodate produced, giving 6-fold amplification. Alternatively, the iodide formed is oxidized with periodate, masking of the excess of periodate with molybdate at pH 3, and iodometric titration of the iodate, giving 24-fold amplification. The coefficient of variation does not usually exceed 2%, for above 1 mg of chloral hydrate but increases to 3.8% at the 0.1-mg level.     

Titrimetric determination of phenol resorcinol and phloroglucinol

A new and sensitive titrimetric method with an amplification procedure has been worked out for the determination of 10-1000 mug of phenol, resorcinol or phloroglucinol. The method is based on reaction of the phenols with an excess of bromine to form bromosubstituted aryl hypobromites. After removal of excess of bromine with formic acid, the hypobromites are treated with iodide to liberate an equivalent amount of iodine, which is extracted into chloroform, then reduced to iodide and determined by the Leipert procedure with 6-fold amplification. The coefficient of variation does not exceed 0.4% for amounts of determinand > 100 mug, but increases to 1.5% at the 10-mug level.     

Spectrophotometric Determination of Some Pharmaceutically Active Amides and Imides

Abstract

The determination of nicotinamide, alloxan, saccharin, barbitone and theobromine is achieved by a simple and rapid spectrophotometric method. The proposed method depends on the bromine oxidation of the amide or imide functional groups with the formation of N - bromoamide or N - bromoimide respectively, having a positive bromine atom. The oxidation products oxidize iodide ions to iodine which is measured as its starch complex.

The method is suitable for the determination of : 0.08–0.4, 0.5–5, 20–80, 25–200 and 50–400 mg with a mean accuracy (P′ = 0.05) of 99.29 ± 1.39%, 101.36 ± 1.44 %, 101.28 ± 1.85 %, 99.94 ± 1.24 % and 100.82 ± 1.29 % for the mentioned compounds respectively.     

Titrimetric determination of chloramine-T and some aldoses by amplification reactions

A titrimetric method with amplification has been worked out for the determination of chloramine-T and certain aldoses. It is based on Leipert determination of iodide produced in the case of chloramine-T by reduction of the determinand with excess of iodide, and extraction and subsequent reduction of the iodine liberated. In the other case, the aldoses are oxidized with iodine, the surplus oxidant is extracted, and the residual iodide is determined. The method is applicable to chloramine-T in the range 0.01-3 mg, with a relative error between -3.0 and -0.4% and a relative standard deviation of 0.6-0.8%, depending on the amount present, and to 0.05-1 mg of glucose, galactose or arabinose, or 0.1-2 mg of lactose or maltose, with a relative standard deviation of 1.4% for > 0.5 mg of aldose.

An analytical method for the determination of 10–2000 μg of semicarbazide is described, using titrimetric procedure with an amplification reaction. It relies upon the reaction of semicarbazide, in phosphate-buffer (pH 7) solution, with a chloroform solution of iodine, and removal of its excess; oxidation of the iodide formed with bromine; and determination of the liberated iodate by the Leipert amplification procedure. The recovery ranged from 97.0 to 100.1%.

A sensitive, rapid and accurate titrimetric method has been developed for the determination of 50-5000 mug of ethyl-lead or phenyl-lead compounds, based on their oxidation with a chloroform solution of iodine, removal of the excess of iodine, oxidation of the resulting iodide with bromine, and iodometric titration of the iodate formed. The coefficient of variation does not exceed 1.2% for amounts > 1000 mug of the organolead compound, but increases to 2.8% for the 50-mug level. The ethyl- and phenyl-lead compounds can be determined independently in mixtures.     

A simplified method for the amplification of iodine

The sample solution is treated so that all iodine is present in the elemental state. This iodine is extracted into chloroform and thereby separated with very high selectivity from almost any matrix. Until now, in order to apply amplification via oxidation to iodate and reaction with iodide, a reextraction into a sodium hydroxide solution was necessary. In the new procedure the organic phase is shaken with bromine water. Thereby, the iodate formed moves completely into the water phase while the bromine accumulates in the chloroform. Remaining bromine in the water is destroyed with some formic acid. No buffer is needed, because the acid establishes the correct conditions for this reaction and also that between iodate and iodide. The iodine formed in sixfold amount can now be titrated visually or photometrically with thiosulfate or subjected to a second amplification cycle. The new procedure eliminates the reextraction, and the addition of some reagents especially sodium hydroxide which is the main contributor of extraneous iodine. Thus, the blank is reduced by a factor of 10 or more and is also more constant. Iodine at lower levels (< 1 μg/ml) can be determined and with higher reliability.     

Indirect amplification method for determining mercury by direct-current polarography. Application to organomercury compounds

An amplification method for the determination of 0.5–70 ppm (2.5 × 10⁻⁶ to 3.5 × 10⁻⁴ M) of Hg(II) is described. Hg(II) is reacted with a slight excess of KI, and the excess iodide is oxidized by bromine water and measured polarographically as iodate with sixfold amplification. Alternatively, the iodate formed is reacted to liberate iodine which is then reduced to iodide, and again oxidized to yield six iodate ions for every iodide ion originally present;

polarographic reduction requires 36 electrons. Oxidation of the excess iodide with periodate yields four iodate ions for every iodide ion and therefore allows 24-fold amplification.Microdetermination of mercury in organomercurials is achieved using the sixfold method following closed flask combustion: the average percentage error for 10 determinations is ±0.40 and the time required for one sample run is 45 min.

o-Phenylenediamine as a New Catalyst in the Highly Regioselective Conversion of Epoxides to Halohydrins with Elemental Halogens – A Reinvestigation

Summary. In contrast to a previous report, o-phenylenediamine is not a catalyst in the ring opening reaction of epoxides by means of bromine or iodine. The o-phenylenediamine is just a reactant which reacts with iodine to give phenazine-2,3-diamine and hydrogen iodide, or with bromine to give a mixture of brominated and polymerized products as well as hydrogen bromide. The hydrogen halogenides are in fact the real epoxide ring opening reactants.     

Optimization of iodine determination according to Schöniger Analytical chemistry with 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBH)a Part 1, Oxygen flask combustion Part 7 [1, 2]

The method of iodine determination in organic compounds according to Schöniger [3, 4] was improved by using an alkaline absorption solution of DBH. In contrast to elemental bromine DBH is a stable and easy to handle crystalline compound. For the removal of the excess of DBH 5-sulfosalicylic acid (C₇H₆O₆S × 2H₂O [5965-83-3]) [5] is more suitable than formic acid [64-18-6]. Assays for the determination of 2-iodobenzoic acid in the range from 1 to 25 mg iodine are described. 32 organic iodine compounds, mostly x-ray contrast media, could be analyzed with a percentage relative standard deviation of about 0.2%.     

Titrimetric determination of microgram amounts of lead by thiocyanate amplification after precipitation as lead hexathiocyanatochromate(III)

Lead (25–200 μg) is precipitated as Pb₃[Cr(SCN)₆]₂. The filtered precipitate is treated with 10% carbonate solution, and the thiocyanate dissolved is oxidized by iodine to sulphate at pH 8.2. After acidification, the excess of iodine is extracted into chloroform, and the iodide ion retained in the aqueous solution is amplified by bromine oxidation and subsequent treatment with more iodide. The method provides 152 iodine atoms for each original lead ion. Only Bi³⁺ and Cu²⁺ interfere seriously.
