#ASSAY OF ATROPINE

-

Aim: To report the amount of atropine present in the given tablet/powder/solution
.
Materials: Burettes, pipettes, beakers, glassrod, funneletc

Chemicals: Perchloricacid, glacial acetic acid, PHP, Atropine sulphate

Principle:
            Assay of Atropine comes under non aqueous titration. Weak bases are dissolved in acetic acid and titrated with perchloricacid. Acetic acid which is frequently used as a solvent for titration of basic substances in non-aqueous titration. When strong acid like perchloric acid dissolve in acetic acid combines with protons donated by perchloricacid to form acetonium ion. Atropine in acetic acid exerts leveling effect and enhance basic property, accept a proton from acetonium ion forms protonated atropine and acetic acid. Crystal violet is used as an indicator.



Procedure:
Standardization of 0.1M Perchloric acid

Place 0.02 gm of PHP in 100ml conical flask, dissolve in 10 ml GAA and add one drop of crystal violet solution and titrate against 0.1 M HClO4.
  
Equivalent factor: Each ml of 0.1M HClO4® 0.02042 gm of PHP.
Assay.
         Weigh accurately about 0.5 g, dissolve in 30 ml of anhydrous glacial acetic acid. Titrate with 0.1 M perchloricacid, determine the end-point potentiometrically Carry out a blank titration.
          1 ml of 0.1 M perchloricacid is equivalent to 0.06768 g of (C17H23NO3)2, H 2SO4.

#ASSAY OF CHLORPROMAZINE

-
Image
Aim: To report the amount of chlorpromazine present in the given tablet/powder/solution . Apparatus : Burettes, pipettes, beakers, glass rod, funnel etc. Chemicals : Perchloric acid, acetone, mercuric acetate solution, chlorpromazine drug PHP(Potasium hydrogen Phthalate) Principle:            Assay of Chlorpromazine comes under non aqueous titration. In this assay the perchloric acid reacts with acetic acid and forms acetonium ion. Chlorpromazine in acetic acid acts as a base and accept a proton from acetonium ion and forms protonated chlorpromazine and acetic acid. The addition of mercuric acetate in the non-aqueous titrimetric method is based on the principle of removing the chloride counter ion so as to prevent the interference of the halide ion released by the titrant (acetous perchloric acid). The addition of mercuric acetate (which is undissociated in acetic acid) replaces the halide ion in chlorpromazine with a...

#PREPARATION OF 4-BENZYLIDENE-2-PHENYL OXAZOLE-5-ONE#

-
Image
Aim: To prepare and submit the pure product of 4-Benzylidine-2-Phenyl oxazole-5-one Apparatus: Round bottomed flask, Condenser, Water bath, Beaker, Funnel, Glass rod Chemicals: Benzaldehyde, Benzyl glycine, Sodium hydroxide, Acetic acid, Ethanol . Principle: Principle involved in the preparation of 4-Benzylidine-2-Phenyl oxazole-5-one is dehydration followed by cyclization method. The active methylene group react with aromatic aldehydes, Benzyl glycine reacts with benzaldehyde followed by dehydration gives 4-Benzylidine-2-Phenyl oxazole-5-one. Mechanism: Procedure: Take 3.25ml of   Benzaldehyde 5.5g of Benzyl glycine 19.5g NaOH, 2.5ml of Acetic acid in 100ml round bottom flask. Heat the reaction mixture in hot plate with a occasional stirring until the solid mixture convert to liquid.   Remove the flask & heat the mixture by using reflux condenser& add 12.2ml of   Ethanol carefully ...
