Prediction of the chemiluminescent behavior of pharmaceuticals and pesticides.
The present paper deals with the first attempt to apply molecular connectivity calculations to predict a chemical property with analytical usefulness: the chemiluminescent behavior of substances when reacted with common oxidants in a liquid phase. Preliminary evidence when searching for new direct CL methods consisted of the examination of analyte reaction with a wide range of oxidants and media. This task, which results in time-consuming and trial-and-error expensive procedures, is necessary due to ensure empirical or theoretical rules for CL prediction are available. On the other hand, in quantitative structure-activity relationship studies, molecular connectivity is a topological method …
Direct flow injection chemiluminescence determination of salicylamide
Abstract A new direct flow injection chemiluminescence method is proposed for the determination of salicylamide, based upon the oxidation of the drug by potassium permanganate in dilute sulphuric acid. The calibration graph is linear over the range 20 ng ml−1 (30 limit of detection)–8 μg ml−1 salicylamide, with a relative standard deviation (n=50, 0.5 μg ml−1) of 1.7%. The average sample insertion rate is 142 h−1. The influence of relevant foreign compounds is found to be relatively slight. The method is applied to the determination of salicylamide in a pharmaceutical formulation and human urine.
Spectrophotometric determination of nalidixic and pipemidic acids in a flow injection assembly with a solid-phase reactor as a highly stable reagent source
Abstract The flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of nalidixic (I) and pipemidic (II) acids were carried out by reaction with Fe(III) ions entrapped in a polymeric material and filling a packed-bed reactor; the released Fe(III) complexed with the quinolone is monitored at 426 nm. The method worked with a high reproducibility, even when using different reactors, days and solutions. Selectivity of the procedure was tested with different foreign compounds found in human urine as well as in pharmaceutical formulations containing both quinolones; no relevant interferences were observed. The calibration graph for (I) was linear over the range 1–250 μg ml −1 with a relative standard dev…
