Abstract: | Results of nitrogen determinations obtained by perchloric acid digestion of organic matter under reflux were found to be equivalent to those obtained by the conventional sulfuric acid Kjeldahl method. A rapid determination of nitrogen and phosphorus was thus possible after a single perchloric acid digestion. Nitrogen was determined by nesslerization and phosphorus by a conventional molybdenum blue technique. The method devised was found satisfactory for a great variety of natural products and pure organic compounds, including materials containing all kinds of tertiary nitrogen. |
