FT-Raman determination of Mepiquat chloride in agrochemical products

2004

Abstract A fast and environmentally friendly procedure has been developed for Fourier transform Raman (FT-Raman) determination of a quaternary ammonium compound, Mepiquat chloride, in pesticide emulsifiable concentrate formulations. The method is based on the measurement of peak area values between 711 and 701 cm −1 corrected using a baseline defined at 620 cm −1 and interpolated in an external calibration of Mepiquat chloride standards dissolved in water. FT-Raman spectra were collected over 1.5 min from samples confined in screw cap standard chromatographic glass vials, at a nominal resolution of 4 cm −1 accumulating 25 scans per spectra and using a laser power of 1000 mW. Five commercial…
