A sensitive colorimetric determination of fluoride in drinking water has been developed using a polymeric zirconium complex of 5-(2-Carboxyphenylazo)-8-Hydroxyquinoline as fluoride reagents. The method allowed a reliable determination of fluoride in range of (0.0-1.5) mg L-1. The molar absorptivity of the complex formation is 7695 ± 27 L mol-1 cm-1 at 460 nm. The sensitivity, detection limit, quantitation limit, and percentage recovery for 1.0 mg L-1 fluoride for the proposed method were found to be 0.353 ± 0.013 μg mL-1, 0.1 mg L-1, 0.3 mg L-1, and 101.7 ± 4.1, respectively.

A simple spectrophotometric method is developed for determination of fluoride in drinking water by using complexes of chrysin. The method is based on the reaction of the coloured complexes with fluoride where its colour changes, due to the formation of the colourless fluoride complex and liberating of the free ligand, is dependent on the concentration of fluoride in water samples. The molar absorptivity for the complexes at the wavelength of maximum absorption in the visible region, 371 nm is 2.75 × 103 L mol-1 cm-1. The method allows a reliable determination of fluoride in the range 0.3─3.0 mg L-1 which is compatible to WHO limit value of 1.5 mg L-1. The sensitivity, detection limit, quantitation limit, and correlation coefficient for the method were found to be 0.211 μg mL-1, 0.1 mg L-1, 0.3 mg L-1, and 0.9914 respectively. The percentage recovery of 1.5 mg L-1 fluoride is 101.3.

The simple, rapid spectrophotometric method for palladium(II) ions determination using a new analytical reagent is described. The interaction of Pd(II) ions with a reagent, of the class of azolidones, 4-(N′-(4-imino-2-oxo-thiazolidine-5-ylidene)-hydrazino)-benzoic acid, in water medium results in the formation of a complex. The Pd(II)-p-ITYBA complex shows maximum absorbance at a wavelength of 450 nm. The molar absorptivity is 4.30 × 103 L·mol−1·cm−1. The optimal pH for complex formation is 7.0. The developed method has a wide linearity range of 0.64–10.64 µg·mL−1 for Pd(II). The detection limit is 0.23 µg·mL−1. It was found that Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Fe(III), Cu(II), Al(III), and many anions do not interfere with the Pd(II) determination. The proposed method was tested in the analysis of model solutions and successfully applied for the determination of palladium in catalyst. The obtained results show that this method can be used for serial determinations of palladium in various objects.

A simple and rapid spectrophotometric method for the determination of nevirapine is described. The method is based on the reaction of nevirapine with tetrathiocyanatocobalt(II) ion in buffer of pH 4 to form the corresponding complex. Beer’s law is obeyed in the range of 0.2 – 2.0 μg mL-1 for nevirapine. The optical parameters such as molar absorptivity, Sandell’s sensitivity, detection limit and quantitation limit were found to be 1.16× 104 Lmol-1cm-1, 2.09 X 10-3 μg cm-2, 0.073 μg mL-1 and 0.222 μg mL-1 respectively. The optimum reaction conditionsand other analytical parameters were evaluated. The statistical evaluation of the method was examined by determining intra-day and inter-day precision. The proposed method has been successfully applied for the determination of nevirapine in pharmaceutical formulations.

A sensitive spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of some 1,4-dihydropyridine compounds namely, nicardipine and isradipine either in pure form or in pharmaceutical preparations. The method is based on the reduction of nicardipine and isradipine with zinc powder and calcium chloride followed by further reduction with sodium pentacyanoaminoferrate (II) to give violet and red products having the absorbance maximum at 546 and 539 nm with nicardipine and isradipine, respectively. Beer's law was obeyed over the concentration range 8.0-180 ?g/ml with the detection limit of 1.67 ?g/ml for nicardipine and 8.0-110 ?g/ml with the detection limit of 1.748 ?g/ml for isradipine. The analytical parameters and their effects on the reported methods were investigated. The molar absorptivity, quantization limit, standard deviation of intercept (Sa), standard deviation of slope (Sb) and standard deviation of the residuals (Sy/x) were calculated. The composition of the result compounds were found 1:1 for nicardipine and 1:2 for isradipine by Job's method and the conditional stability constant (Kf) and the free energy changes (?G) were calculated for compounds formed. The proposed method was applied successfully for the determination of nicardipine and isradipine in their dosage forms. The results obtained were in good agreement with those obtained using the reference or official methods. A proposal of the reaction pathway was presented.

Simple, rapid and sensitive spectrophotometric method was proposed for the analysis of metoclopramide hydrochloride (MPH) in pure form as well as in pharmaceutical tablets. The method is based on the diazotization reaction of MPH with sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid medium to form diazonium salt, which is coupled with 1-naphthol in sodium hydroxide medium to form azo dye, showing absorption maxima at 550 nm. Beer’s law is obeyed in the concentration range of 0.4 – 18 µg mL-1 of MPH with detection limit 0.5448 µg mL-1. The molar absorptivity and Sandell’s sensitivity are 3.4969 × 104 L mol-1 cm-1 and 0.0101 µg cm-2, respectively. The method was successfully applied to the determination of MPH in pharmaceutical tablets without any interference from common excipients used as additives in tablets. The results agree favorably with the official British Pharmacopoeia method.

Abstract A colorimetric method was developed for the quantitative estimation of 11 phenothiazine drugs. The method is based on the interaction of unsulfoxidized drug with morpholine and iodine-potassium iodide reagents. The interaction for all studied phenothiazine drugs yields a blue product with 2 absorption maxima: one in the range of 620-640 nm with lower molar absorptivity and the other in the range of 662-690 nm with higher molar absorptivity. The color was stable for at least 10 h. The reproducibility and recovery of the method were excellent. The method was applied successfully to the analysis of various commercially available phenothiazines in different dosage forms. The results were comparable to those obtained by official procedures. The suitability of the method for detection and estimation of promethazine excreted in urine has been suggested by preliminary experiments. Reaction products have been isolated and identified.

A new and direct colorimetric method has been established for the determination of catecholamine (methyldopa, MD) in both pure form and in pharmaceutical formulations. The method is based on the oxidative coupling reaction of MD with 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone hydrochloride monohydrate (MBTH) and potassium ferricyanide at pH 10.4 in aqueous medium to form an orange product that has a maximum absorption at 460 nm. Beer's law plot showed good correlation in the concentration range of 1.0−56.0 µg mL-1, with detection limit of 0.31 µg mL-1. Molar absorptivity for the above method was found to be 6.56×103 L mol-1 cm-1. All the measurements were carried out at 25 ± 1.0 °C, the formation constant (logKf) value of colored species is 9.48 and the standard free energy (DG‡) is − 54.09 KJ mol-1. This method was applied successfully to determination of MD in tablets and the results were compared with the USP method. Common excipients used as additives in tablets do not interfere in the proposed method. The method is accurate, precise and highly reproducible, while being simple, cheap and less time consuming and hence can be suitably applied for routine analysis of MD in bulk and dosage forms.
