Zero-Order and Third-Derivative Spectrophotometric Determination of Iron(III) with 4-(2-Pyridylazo)-Resorcinol in the Presence of N-Hexadecylpyridinium Chloride

Abstract

The complex formation reaction between iron(III) and 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol(PAR) in the presence of various water soluble surfactants((N-hexadecylpyridinium chloride (HPC), poly(vinylalcohol)(PVA), sodium dodecylsulfate(SDS), sodium N-lauroylsarcosine(SL)) alone or in combination at weakly acidic media was systematically investigated. An improved and more sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of iron was proposed by zero-order and third-derivative spectrophotometry using the PAR-iron(III)-HPC ternary complex system at about pH 5.2. The calibration curve was rectilinear in the ranges of 0 – 15.0 μg iron(III) in a final 10-ml on the zero-order spectrophotometry. Also, upon the third-derivative spectrophotometry, Beer's law was obeyed in the range of 0 – 8.0 μg iron(III)/10 ml by measuring the distance between the absorbance peak(λ₁ = 527 nm) and the valley (λ₂ = 560 nm). The apparent molar absorptivity was 4.8 × 10⁴ 1 mol^?1 cm^?1 in zero-order spectrophotometry, and 1.36 × 10⁵ mol^?1 cm^?1 in third-derivative spectrophotometry. The effect of foreign ions was decreased within ½ – ¼-fold in comparison with the method in the presence of PVA without HPC. Especially, the third-derivative spectrophotometric method was sensitive and selective, and made possible to assay mixed sample solution containing iron(III) and copper(II), etc.

Three Spectrophotometric Methods for the Determination of Oxomemazine Hydrochloride in Bulk and in Pharmaceutical Formulations Using Bromocresol Green,Congo Red,and Methyl Orange

Abstract

Three simple, sensitive, and highly accurate spectrophotometric methods have been developed for the determination of oxomemazine hydrochloride (OXO‐HCl) in bulk and in pharmaceutical formulations. These methods are based on the formation of yellow ion‐pair complexes between the examined drug and bromocresol green (BCG), congo red (CR), and methyl orange (MO) as reagents in universal buffer solution of pH 3.0, 5.5, and 3.5, respectively. The formed complexes were extracted with chloroform and measured at 413, 495, and 484 nm, respectively for the three systems. The best conditions of the reaction were studied and optimized. Beer's law was obeyed in the concentration ranges 2.0–18.0, 2.0–14.0, and 2.0–16.0 µg ml^?1 with molar absorptivity of 4.1×10⁴, 1.1×10⁴, and 3.5×10⁴ mol^?1cm^?1, for the BCG, CR, and MO methods, respectively. Sandell's sensitivity, correlation coefficient, detection, and quantification limits are also calculated. The proposed methods have been applied successfully for the analysis of the drug in pure and in its dosage forms. No interference was observed from common pharmaceutical excipients and additives. Statistical comparison of the results with those obtained by HPLC method shows excellent agreement and indicates no significant difference in accuracy and precision.
