Spectrophotometric assay of salsolidine hydrochloride.
The proposed method is based on the reaction of salsolidine HCl with carbon disulfide and ammoniacal copper sulfate. The resulting salsolidine-copper-dithiocarbamate complex is extracted with benzene and measured spectrophotometrically at 448 nm. The method is applicable for the detection of 40-500 mug salsolidine/5 ml.
