Abstract
Analytical procedure has been developed for the gas chromatographic determination of phenylpropanolamine (PPA) using trifluoroacetylacetone (FAA) as derivatizing reagent. Elution is carried out from the column HP-5 (30 mx0.32 mm i.d.) with film thickness 0.25 microm at initial column temperature 70 degrees C for 5 min, followed by heating rate 10 degrees C/min up to 120 degrees C. Injection port temperature was maintained at 270 degrees C. Nitrogen flow rate was 2 ml/min and detection was by FID. The linear calibration curve was obtained with 30-150 microg/ml PPA with detection limit of 6.0 microg/ml. The method was used for the determination of PPA from Sinutab and Tavegyl-D tablets. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) for the analysis of pharmaceutical preparation was obtained within 0.4-0.9%.Entities:
