Abstract: | Chemiluminescence is observed during the oxidation of ethanol with potassium permanganate under very acidic conditions. Factors affecting the chemiluminescence signal are discussed. Based on this chemiluminescence reaction, a method for the determination of alcohol in gin was developed. The method, which has a detection limit of 0.3% (v/v) and a relative standard deviation of about 1% at 40.0% (v/v), was used in the determination of ethanol in three different brands of gin with no sample preparation. |
