Abstract A rapid, simple, and specific thin-layer chromatographic (TLC) method has been developed for the estimation of panthenol and pantothenic acid in pharmaceutical preparations containing other vitamins, amino acids, syrups, enzymes, etc. The vitamin is extracted with ethanol (tablets and capsules) or benzyl alcohol (liquid oral preparations) and isolated from other ingredients by TLC on silica gel with isopropanol-water (85 + 15, v/v) as developing solvent. β-Alanine (pantothenate) or β-alanol (panthenol) is liberated by heating for 20 min at 160°C. The liberated amines are visualized by ninhydrin reaction and estimated by spectrodensitometry at 490 nm. Recoveries for panthenol and pantothenic acid were 99.8 ± 2.25% and 100.2 ± 1.7%, respectively.

1. A system of separation using buffered Celite columns is described that enables the pipsyl derivatives of most of the common amino acids to be separated. 2. The reaction of pipsyl chloride with several amino acids not included in previous studies has been investigated. In particular, knowledge of the acid-soluble pipsyl derivatives of arginine, histidine, lysine, tyrosine and cysteic acid has been extended. 3. Reproducible factors have been obtained that enable corrections to be applied for the breakdown of pipsylamino acids on acid hydrolysis. 4. The reaction of pipsyl chloride with peptides has been studied under various conditions. 5. The extent of the reaction between pipsyl chloride and insulin depends on the nature of the solvent-buffer system, and under the best conditions so far found is about 75% complete. 6. In an Appendix, the separation of pipsylamino acids by thin-layer chromatography is described.
