Spectrophotometric determination of peptic ulcer sulfur-containing drugs in bulk form and in tablets.

Two spectrophotometric procedures are suggested for the determination of three irreversible proton pump inhibitors, rabeprazole (RAB), omeprazole (OMP) and pantoprazole (PAN) in pure form and in different pharmaceutical formulations. The first method is based on the oxidation of RAB and PAN with potassium iodate in an acidic medium followed by extracting the liberated iodine with cyclohexane and measurement at λ = 520 nm. Beer's law is valid in the concentration ranges from 10-400 and 5-400 µg ml(-1) for RAB and PAN, respectively.

Spectrophotometric study of the reaction mechanism between DDQ Pi- and iodine sigma-acceptors and chloroquine and pyrimethamine drugs and their determination in pure and in dosage forms.

Two simple and accurate spectrophotometric methods are presented for the determination of anti-malarial drugs, chloroquine phosphate (CQP) and pyrimethamine (PYM), in pure and in different pharmaceutical preparations. The charge transphere (CT) reactions between CQP and PYM as electron donors and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (DDQ) pi-acceptor and iodine sigma-acceptor reagents to give highly coloured complex species have been spectrophotometrically studied. The optimum experimental conditions have been studied carefully.

2,6-Dichloroquinone chlorimide and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane reagents for the spectrophotometric determination of salbutamol in pure and dosage forms.

A simple, rapid and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of sulbutamol in pure form and in different pharmaceutical preparations has been developed. The charge transfer (CT) reaction between salbutamol as electron donor and 2,6-dichloroquinone chlorimide (DCQ) and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) as a pi-electron acceptor have been spectrophotometrically studied. The optimum experimental conditions for these CT reactions have been studied carefully.
