title: Spectrophotometric determination of some benzene sulfonamides with 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane.
abstract: A new spectrophotometric method for the determination of some unsubstituted benzene sulfonamides is presented. The method is based on the interaction of these derivatives with 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane at pH 9.0-9.5 to produce intense blue products. The quantitation of the products was carried out at 578 nm. Beer's law was obeyed over a wide range of concentrations for all sulfonamide compounds studied. Optimum analytical conditions were determined, and the color produced was stable for at least 90 min at 25 degrees C. Analytical data for determination of sulfonamide compounds in pure form are presented together with application of the proposed method for analysis of some commercially available pharmaceutical preparations. The results are in good agreement with those obtained by official procedures.
